Gabriel Belmont vs. Kratos

Started by Nephthys19 pages

Could Gabriel hurt Thanos?

Gameplay mechanics Quan. Understand the meaning of the term.

Kratos' skin has resisted Atropos' massive claws, Tanked being caught near the fulcrum of the Skorpio boss' scissor like claws, Tanked being bitten across his midsection by the Basilisk's super large and pointy teeth and tossed.

All of those are cutscene feats. And all of those are lower end feats than tanking Zeus' slashes twice.

Gabriel is not hurting him with a bladed weapon.

So despite the super natural beings he's defeated through skill and strength he can't hurt Kratos ? There's no way you can even truly think this on your own.

So no blade has ever been resisted by Kratos so unlike superman lifting something heavier we have no feats of Kratos ever resisting a blade. See what I did there.

Even in the game you can have weaker enemies cut him if he doesn't resist. That's the point.

I have no idea how your mind really believes this to be true.

Unlike you I don't claim to have diamond like skin.

Supernatural beings? You think that means a ****ing thing? The Spectre is a "supernatural being," yet Gabriel nor anyone in Castlevania would have any hope of defeating, nay, inconveniencing the Spectre.

Blade of Olympus wielded by Zeus. Good game. Leave my presence.

Gameplay mechanics. Cute. Alex Mercer (Prototype) can get harmed by bullets in-game. Yet we see him easily tank them in cutscenes, as well as more impressive feats. Cutscenes take precedence, is no different with Kratos.

I'm smarter than you. Obviously.

So you are saying it would take diamond-like skin to resist a blade with your palms? Thanks for agreeing with Kratos' diamond skin. 🙂

No, but Thanos is on a whole other league than any character we are discussing. People have actually broken blades against his skin which were said capable of killing gods so unlike here I have an example backing up my claim.

Yes, he can resist and survive these types of attacks but the combat cross would definitely hurt or cause him to bleed.

If Kratos sat there these attacks in the game would eventually kill him which is my point.

It's like saying I got stabbed but won the fight which doesn't translate into knives can't hurt me.

Kratos has tanked blades said to be capable of killing gods. Blade O' Olympus yo! 😮

He was brought back to life after it killed him. That isn't tanking it, bro.

He stopped it with his bare hands.

Yes, because if he didn't he was going to be killed. If someone in a swordfight stops a sword it's because the sword will kill them not because they can tank it. If he didn't stop it and let it stab him you'd have an argument.

Or he wanted to pull it from Zeus to use on him.

Like what happened.

Do note I am not saying the Blade of Olympus is incapable of killing Kratos, it is, but like Zeus it cannot so easily do so.

The reason it isn't easy is because Kratos has strength and skill to prevent it from easily happening just like Gabriel who runs into guys with far superior strength and speed aka Cornell early on in the game.

Zeus had to be repeatedly slashed and stabbed with it... To weaken him. 😐 God of War 2.

I was talking about Kratos but like any boss you have to weaken them to be able to deliver the death blow. It's just like every other game.

I think he means outside of gameplay, lol.

In gameplay we see Gabriel inflict damage in cinemas as well and continue to fight them until in a cinema you kill them. Carmilla survived being staked from the top of a castle and took damage prior to as well. This is just the norm for these types of games.

I have no idea what you just said.

The lord of shadow that gabriel faces in his game has to be attacked before being staked on the top of a castle in a cinema yet still presses on after all that damage takes place.

This means that any self respectable boss needs to be weakened through cinema in these games to be later killed just like Zeus.

Zeus in the actual, canon storyline, cutscenes and all, survives repeated stabbings and slashes from the Blade of Olympus.

Yes, I know then is beaten to death by Kratos. Zeus is one tough sob but come on look at the end bosses guys like satan in this game, lucifer in dante's inferno, or the unforgotten one at the end of the dlc. They all are badass and survive the damage the heroes cause them until the end and guys like satan and lucifer even though they are defeated aren't defeated for all time like Zeus.

It it bleeds we can kill it.

Funny that Zeus is enormously more powerful than all of them combined.

😂 Not on your life. Any of these guys would beat him mercilessly. I mean Lucifer while impaled effortlessly just disintegrated death's scythe that dante had used on him. These type of guys want to challenge heaven itself.

Zeus in the end gets killed by bare fists.
