Lich King runs the Popular VG Gauntlet Part 2

Pretty sure Samus' does that. I'd be surprised if it doesn't.

Scenario! Get the bird magic comic!

Not to mention the fact that when the Lich King is down to 10% health he simply kills everyone... And takes their soul... No questions asked.

Sure. White Knights are the best kind of knight. Black Knights are for pussies.

Why were you demasculating Scenario? 131

Magic exists in the Metroid verse, one of Samus' enemies could steal the souls of four planets worth of people's at once. Yet could not take Samus'.

(omg get wrecked Gorea)

Insta death spell is a no limits fallacy. You can only go by the strongest thing it's killed.

Souls have a scientific basis in Metroid, do they not?

We're talking magic here though, magic in Warcraft bypasses armour in Warcraft unless it has special magic resistances.

Fixed.

Besides, magic can be anything that current scientific technology cannot explain. I'm sure ancient man thought people were using "explosive magic" when the first explosives or bombs were used.

I don't think it's ever discussed, but the fact is that magic exists, and you fight enemies who use it. (an den u keeel dem)

Yeah, but I doubt sailors have four skulls. The manual just says that they're souls. Here's a scan, for reference.

As for defense, there is, of course, Gorea. Granted that most of it is lore, there's this:

Gorea attacks six guys who aren't Samus:

Please excuse the quality, it's the best I could find. That same attack does very little to Samus. At one point point Samus' ship has to intercept a telepathic message for Samus, as she apparently can't recieve them.

Now, magic is harder, but I suppose Mogenar will have to do.

Specifically, his rune covered magic hands, though there are a few other such attacks.

Reptilicus also blast Samus with magic, though it's less common.

I thought we compared feats... A feat of the Lich King is that his magic (as with all warcraft magic) penetrates armour... I can't help but feel people here are making up the rules to suit their argument.

If magic in WoW is able to bypass any physical defense unless proper magic resistance is in place, then the same is true for Samus' armour, if it has no magic resistance.

And wtf is up with that "MAJIK IS JUST WUT SCIENCE CANNOT EXPLAIN YET" argument 5L?

Well, the argument is that just because it can bypass armor in Warcraft doesn't mean it can bypass all armor of any universe. You understand.

Have you not taken the time to think it out, Nemebro?

Nah, don't worry about that.

Say you had a point about the Lich King. Can he survive so much as one hit from Samus? Can he hit her at all with her mach 17 running speed and great reaction time?

Ok then, if we've discounted his magic then what about his physical attacks. He does massive melee damage. Not to mention the buffs he casts on himself which increase it by over 200%.

Then there is his shockwave attack. Which causes major melee damage.

Obviously she has magic resistance, as scenario just posted a video where she fights a boss who uses teh magickz.

Also his physical attacks would probably have to... i don't even know. Can he knockdown mountains with a single blow? Even if he could it wouldn't be enough to even damage her.

Well, what is the most durable thing or person that his melee has destroyed?

As for the HP, that is what we refer to as a gameplay mechanic, and doesn't hold much weight, I'm afraid.

He still has to hit Samus. I know for a fact that Samus' armor has taken great physical damage. And though you may have a point about Lich King's magic, but he still has to hit Samus first.

Edit: HP depends. Health systems tend to be discarded as they can't be compared to other health systems very well. For instance, Fire Emblem characters only get HP under 100 usually. And the statistics systems of that cannot merge with the ones driving LK's stats. And then you have things like Sonic who can basically take any hit so long as he has a ring on him.

Is there no durability feats for LK?
