Death's Head vs Cable

vs

Classic Cable w/tech takes on Minion.

Gotta go with Death's Head. The combined might of the X-Men including Wolverine, Cyclops, Gambit, Rogue, Psylocke, Beast, and Jubilee (maybe there was more) couldnt put him down.

I don't think Cable can mess with him with his telepathy as Psylocke tried a psi-spike and failed. Plus Rogue even tried to absorb his powers and abosrbed over 100 personalities shutting her down. Neither attack really phased him.

BOOOOO!

I liked the original Deaths Head better. Although the S.W.O.R.D. version was awesome.

Pretty much.

Deaths Head II was basically designed to take on a character that killed Dr. Strange and every major hero on an alt timeline/reality Earth.

Yeah, be careful, Death's Head is technically someone else. Your pic is Death's Head II (or Minion).

Well, he failed. Or rather, it took Death Metal to complete that task. Charnal was comfortably beyond DHII.

I don't disagree with your conclusion on the fight though, just your reasoning here.

At Classic Level with tech. Cable would take down the same X-Roster with greater facility.

Ditto that... and yes. It was cool to see the Giant Transformers verion of DH in that comice...heck DH1 was the only reason I bought that rag.

And I don't know enough about cable to hazard a guess.

hey

ur from ict

No. I am BANNED from ICT.

That is even better.

My inclination would've been to say Cable here, but then people hopped on the Minion wagon. So I was like "meh, I'll ride." I'm not really familiar with Cable enough to know for sure though.

Minion should take this.
There were some characters involved in that story arc that were horrendously tough. Charnel was just bad news.

Writers were very "light" on the limitations of these guys.

Well, the OP says 'Minion' so I guess that was the intention.

Anyways, I vote Minion.

I would be an interesting fight if they used "minions' abilities like they were explained but never really used in the comic, like his ability to be able to pull experiance from any of the hundreds of personalities in his matrix.

Or how that could skrew with Cab's tp.

I meant to use Minion (Death Heads II).

There are a few factors, that give Cable some hard edges. For one the psionic might mustered from his Psimitar, does far more damage than Psylock's psy blade. IRRC, he stood up to Apocalypse with it.

You have Dominus Objective, which grants him technopathy nearly on par with his telepathy.

In physical encounter, if Cable allows the T.O. to infect Minion could prove fatal for obvious reasons.

Thats just of the top of my head.

Concerning the physical issue, how strong does Cable get? As Minion is class 100 and has gone toe to toe with Thing and Hulk.

I seriously doubt the technopathy angle work work here, as DH has technopathy too. Who knows as we really didnt see him explore this power often

which classic version b/c it depends on what he is carrying and classic late 80's early 90's didnt carry much other than laser guns, grenades and crap on average..

Thats what I was confused as well, sure ID can clarify as that may sway the battle.
