Deathbattle disagreements

They acknowledged her limited durability, noting that she had to survive damage to convert it to power (obvious really), and putting Yang through pillars is a feat. Though, I'm wondering which Tifa feat is apparently being overlooked. mmm

Being able to lift any enemy in the game with one hand, jump in the air with it, and then throw it down to the ground.

Normally that wouldn't come into consideration but the DB guys allow her to have that kind of strength for her limit break. Meaning it should have come into play.

Yep. They spotted Tifa some insane damage output. And then had Yang tank more damage then she's ever taken in RWBY, based on some sort of no limits fallacy. Neo somehow managed to beat her without destroying the train, as Tifa's finisher would have.

It's Ryu vs Scorpion all over again. I don't care what his bio says about Scorp gaining strength in hell, it doesn't prove he can tank any attack. Otherwise, it's equally valid to say Scorpion beat Living Tribunal or Lord of Nightmares in hell.

Well damn. Had a feeling there was more of that king of 'logic' there somewhere.

Bleh. At any rate, to those that are fans of the series, RWBY volume 3 episode 1 is finally out now, on Crunchyroll.

The people at the Death Battle Fanon Wiki believe every single thing about the Death Battle team.

I gotta admit the last second got me for a moment.

One of the better OMM so far. Both got moments and there was a reason for the fighting instead of just cause. Also I like how these fights don't have to end with a death like the Death Battle.

Agreed wholeheartedly 👆; even if the plot twist wouldn't actually work. haermm

As for the result,

Spoiler:
let's just say I told you so.

Either way, great fight. More entertaining than most DBs, IMO. 👆

True that isn't how the character normally works and his artifacts should make him immune to stuff like that. Remember though that presumably the bad guys from KHII are involved. Combine their knowledge with Ganon's power and I could certainly see that being possible.

You're right. That hadn't even occurred to me (on account of never having made it to KH2).

Way to rectify that like a champ. haermm

Well played, sir. 👆

Indeed. In fact this exact scenario does take place in KH, just replace Link with Beast. Requires a little more legwork on the part of the Organization but due to

Spoiler:
Dark Link

Basically if any sort of canon crossover were to happen requiring Link and Sora to fight, this is the only route they could go and it fits both franchises.

Truly. I actually want to see what happens afterwards. The narrative groundwork is all there, and it's already shown itself to have amazing potential. God, I would love to see this actually happen!

I still think link wins...

Well I mean Sora was knocked out in the beginning. Who do you think did that?

Yeah, and that was while Sora's team was still up. I think it says something that he could accomplish that much with the initial imbalance of odds. That certainly seems to be the implication anyways. They at least tried to make this as glorious as possible for both of them (as is deserved 👆), so I have no complaints about it. 😊

Even I liked it. I'm not sure why Link was beating on Sora and the Disney crew, but hey, fight it out and then go get the bad guys, I guess. It did make their decision to have Sora the winner kind of obvious though, since Link was playing an antagonistic role.

I will admit to just kind of rolling my eyes at the missed ending blow, but I guess the PLOT TWIST couldn't have happened if Sora got skewered, lol. Swords don't generally have non-lethal options the way a keyblade does.

Still, pretty entertaining stuff.

It kinda shares a story structure with Mega Man vs. Samus. Sora more-or-less defeated a possessed dopplegannger Link, which would explaine him being super agro. The whole thing was actually very believable, given some consideration. (Me and Aura briefly went over this.)

And yeah. OBVIOUSLY, Sora's glad he turned those couple of inches. That impact was f**king heavy. haermm

Dat soundtrack doe... 😄

Dark Link was making him fight Sora and his buds. Realistically the Master Sword would say no to any kind of silliness like that but if you combine the Organizations knowledge for manipulating people with Ganon's sheer power one could see them overcoming that. Or maybe the Org just created an evil copy of the MS and gave it to Dark Link? Who knows. Specifics of the narrative aren't too important.

I actually rewatched Cloud vs Link to compare the Link's. Even though this Link "lost" he still comes across more like Link to me. He's not hopping around much like a FF character, keeping a grounded firm stance unless he's dodging, and you can see him planning things out instead of just throwing random stuff and hoping it works.

Also which Link is this most like? It feels like just a general Link but I don't know why he's right handed.

Edit: By the way if Link's dair had hit Sora in the face that would have been so brutal. Thankfully I can think of one instance where it has missed.

Ahh, that makes sense, then. All right.

Probably an oversight, maybe they were working with a base sprite that was a righty or something.

As for which Link it operates the most like, the claw on the end of the hookshot implies either SS or TP, while his use of the sword implies SS Link. So this is most like SS Link.

SS Link? That's cool. Also weirdly Sora is using his left for the Keyblade and he isn't a lefty. Then again that might just be the standard sprite reversal silliness that happens.

General consensus seems to rank this one pretty high for OMM. That makes me wary of the idea of a Death Battle. I'd rather Link/Sora not kill Sora/Link. This was a happy and pretty fun way to end it.

Verily, and I agree on the difference in accuracy between DB and OMM regarding Link's character portrayal. Granted, I still agree with the DB outcome, this better proves that you can have your amazing shonen Link and still keep him in character.
