Nightmare runs the Cowgirl gauntlet!

At his prime

Short rest and no healing of wounds 🪩

The setting is a random mountain chain where one foe arrives one to two minutes after another one falls!

1st foe; 200 average swordsmen! [All at once]

2nd foe; Ryu Hayabusa [DoA]!

3rd foe; 100 average pikemen! [All at once]

4th foe; Hayate [DoA]

5th foe; 25 average knights [All at once]

6th foe; Ayane [DoA]

He loses at Gouki.

Though there's a chance that he will go down to Ryu Hayaboozitup.

Gouki? ermm

Nightmare solos this...depending on what weapon Hayabusa gets, since he's the biggest and only thread really, IMO. With the Plasma Saber MK.II or Dark Dragon Blade, he has a greater victory chance than Nightmare does. An average fight involving Ryu though would involve him using the regular Dragon Sword. At his prime Nightmare should win over him in that case.

Man I thought I was going to see Sephiroth or Dante in this gauntlet.

But Nightmare has such a big ass sword..

You will see very little Dante in future Cowgirl gauntlets 😛 I know nothing of that guy 😐

I suspected Nightmare to go down at 5 due exhaustion, but if he kept his energy up he would pull it trough 🙄

The Dark Dragon Blade is also a BIG ASS SWORD. Anyone wielding it turns into the Devil Incarnate who...is much more powerful than Nightmare.

Nightmare can clear it.

At his prime, Nightmare can possess the strength of thousands of souls and use them as his own strength, right? 😄

So he'll be able to counter that.

Just asking 😛

I know Nightmare is powerful but I know Ryu has quite high potentials in this fight too lion

At least according to fanboys at my old forum 😛

I consider Nightmare one of the more powerful characters that have ever walked the world of Fighting Games 🪩

The Devil Incarnate 313YouTube videoYouTube videoYou may be wondering why I posted videos of the D.I., well it's because anyone wielding the Dark Dragon Blade manifests into the Devil Incarnate himself. I'm still assuming that Ryu gets the Dragon Sword and nothing else, which is why I think Nightmare would beat him in that case with some effort.

Can't the souls Nightmare absorbed counter the effect?

I heart that intro 😍

The effect of the Dark Dragon Blade?

The devil incarnation I guess 😛

I believe he could ✅

The effect of the Dark Dragon Blade is that it turns the possessor into the D.E.V.I.L. I.N.C.A.R.N.A.T.E. Watch the two videos I posted.

If you mean can it counter its power the same way as the True Dragon Sword can, no. It however is comparable in terms of power but it can't counter it with an opposite type of force, particularly spiritual power which there's an unfathomable amount within the True Dragon Sword.

Ever since I played both games, which was in 2005 I've always thought that the DDB and Soul Edge were equal in terms of power. They have weaker states and prime levels which are relatively equal, IMO.

Oh. NM is really gonna have to work if Ryu has the DDB.

Yeah...as I see it:

1. Ryu with downgraded DDB(when Vigoor Emperor had it, as shown in the first video) is about equal to Nightmare with incomplete Soul Edge...

2. Ryu with fully powered DDB(when Murai had it, as shown in the second video which points out that the DDB reached its full power) = Nightmare with the completed Soul Edge.

Just my opinion...
