John Marston vs. Ezio Auditore

The Outlaw and the Assassin go at it in the old western era.

Match is set in the town of Blackwater. Ezio has a contract to kill John and is aware that he's being hunted down. Both have prep time to know eachother and are seperated at each end of the town. They also don't know where the other is, meaning that they have to look around to find him.

Ezio is from AC: Brotherhood and has all of his assassin weapons and no, he does not have his recruits with him. John (from RDR of course), has his six-shooter, a Henry Repeater, a double barreled shotgun, and some rope (just in case).

Will John survive or will Ezio complete the contract?

With them not knowing where the other is, Ezio wins. With knowing, John wins.

John has a considerably better reaction-time, I would say, and since he uses a gun and is a supar expert with one, that is a big deal.

If Ezio can get close enough to kill John before he can put a bullet in Ezio's skull, Ezio wins. If not, John wins.

Ezio has a crossbow, and a pistol of his own. And is better at stealth. >_>

John dies unless he happens to find Ezio first.

That also said, Ezio would stick out like a sore thumb. 😐

They have prep time, and Ezio is no stranger to changing his clothes to blend in with surroundings. So now while John has no idea what the hell he's looking for, Ezio has Eagle Vision to easily identify his target, who he then shoots with a crossbow.

Dead Eye does also not allow him to dodge bullets or react to them in any way. He just sees faster, but if those guns get fired off you still get hit really fast.

Oh shit prep time?

John sits in a single room in the corner in a chair with one entrance to the room with his guns and fires on anyone who enters. 131

Smoke bomb, windows on the room, cannon, John's family, armor, dynamite, and this sentence:

They also don't know where the other is, meaning that they have to look around to find him.

Moo, I just went in my bathroom which also has only one entrance. I could look around just fine. And if someone were trying to kill me, I'd be looking towards the entrance more likely than not.

Did you also encounter a smoke bomb, any issues with intruders shooting you through a window, someone blasting the room with a cannon or dynamite, anyone threatening your family, problems shooting someone dead who wears metal armor or the fact that you probably have to leave the room and search for anyone who might want to kill you anyway?

Nevermind, I forgot that most of the buildings in Blackwater are completely indestructible.

I can't see how there would be a window in my bathroom considering there is only one entrance. Ezio is going to haul a big canon to the bathroom and kill Martson with it? And since when did assassins start threatening the innocent? I've only played one but I remember that being distinctively against the rules.

Not to mention I just took a quick look at the wiki and his weapons seem pretty useless except for the gun.

I wasn't aware a window counted as a conventional entrance.

Yeah, considering how prep time was left unquantified, he could get himself one. I'm wondering how many dollars Florins would go for at that period in time, or if Florins were even still around at that time. Making money isn't all that hard around Blackwater. Ezio is a trained assassin, I'm sure he could make some money if he had to, as well. How many dollars is a stick of Dynamite again?

I don't know. John's family may not be considered innocent depending on the reasoning behind the contract on John.

If the two also have to walk around and look, Ezio still has the advantage unless John is going to go around looking for Ezio while not getting within a few feet of any person in Blackwater.

John's dead before he even gets a chance to turn around.

Also, being holed up somewhere with only one entrance and it's guarded has never stopped Ezio from getting in unnoticed before.

I'm sorry to ask but who the heck is John Marston? I'd vote for Ezio but I still want to know who the guy is before I do.

The dude from Red Dead Redemption.

Marston blows Ezio's face off with his superior weaponry and reflexes, then takes game of the year.

Nah, Shepard takes game of the year. But Marston wins this one.

There's really not a chance for that. So far the best Marston has is to sit in that room with one entrance. And I think he has to be out and about looking for Ezio anyway.

No, he could kill him right out in the open, as well.

I thought Mass Effect 2 got game of the year?

Is the cowboy outlaw dude that good of a ranged specialist to take Ezio out like that?
