Re: Thor, Wonder Woman vs Hercules and Orion.
Originally posted by lawest9BTW.........this is Marvel's Hercules.
This is strictly h2h battle with super strength fighting skills and durability, No weapons or energy manip, no flying for diana but they can all use their reflexes and natural speed.Who wins?
Could have sworn this combo is already out there, flouting around...

A tough one; I'd edge with Thor/WW, though Orion will be tough to take down, and Herc (assuming not the Sky-God level he's at right this second), while he'll likely go down to Thor over the long haul, and certainly to WW as well, isn't going down easy, either. Team 2 will definitely get it's fair share of wins, however...

Just curious: what's your rationale? While WW doesn't have the tirelessness that the others do, she can still fight for many hours, even days, which should be sufficient for the purposes of this match-up; She can defeat Herc (DC or Marvel), and Thor can certainly hold out against Orion (though he'll likely find it one of the greatest mano-y-mano battles he's had, likely rivaling his bouts with Herc). Once Diana takes Herc down (albeit after a protracted battle), it then becomes two-on-one against Orion, who while very tough and capable of going many rounds with Superman, isn't going to stand long against Thor/WW in straight H2H... (mind you, Thor won't be in hot shape at that point, and Diana will be roughed-up, but they can still get the job done). That still is only making things around a 6/10 for Team 1; with some team-alternating and lucky blows, Diana is likely the first to go down, leaving Thor more than overwhelmed by Team 2 in their 4/10 wins.
Originally posted by tideoftimeMy Rationale is that Thor himself once stated that Herc is slightly the better H2H combatant and Orion against diana in H2H is a toss up with perhaps a sliht edge going to him.

This sums it up for me.
