yepp thats true. Space pirates uses armour and not those useless covenant plasma shields.
The covenant sheild gets redused to zero in notime, it cant even protect u from explotions.
So anyone who sides with the elite is either a.)a fanboy, or b.)an idiot who haven't even played any metroid game ever, which means you should just watch and learn!
Dude you cant say that the covenant shield can be taken out by a Space Pirate. And Swedish bum you miss spelled Pirate

I don't see how you could automatically christen a Space Pirate as the winner. Have you thought about it from the technological sides? Do you have any proof that a Space Pirate's weapon can "reduce a Elite's shield to nothing"? It's pretty clear that you're a Metroid fanboy, so I wouldn't go off shooting your mouth and accusing others of being Halo fanboys, as it makes you a filthy hypocrite.
We also have not much of an idea how Covenant weapons work against Pirates. Direct blunt force(bullets) would be most likely dissapointingly low damage. My guess is that an Elite with a plasma sword would be a pretty equal match against a pirate with one of those energy swords. (please log in to view the image)(please log in to view the image)
Elite is above the pirate in terms of physical bulk. Upgrade the Elite to one of those Ultra, Gold, or even Chancellor Elites and it could take on a Space Pirate.

it depends on the pirate each one is designed for different things and beam troopers seeing as they're armor is designed to repel all weaponry except the plasma BEAMS, ice beam,powerbeam, or wave beam are the only type of weapons that harm them and powerful weaponry to mimic the beam

Elites also have different elites for different tasks. Gold elites are the best and are usually camo. Special Elites have special armor that allows them to fly.
Gold Elites are like Generals. Thats why you do see to many
