Maximus vs Leonidas

It is, but I am just saying to you on a parallel. Maybe you could indulge? Would you consider Leo above Achilles because Leo killed immortals and Achilles did not?

I don't think you're understanding buddy... I keep saying THE UBER immortal. not the immortals. Ya know, that huge dude that Leonidas killed in battle? That's who i'm talking about who's superior to anybody Maximus beat.

I understand your point but we're talking about very similar characters here in Leo and Maximus... Achilles isn't the same. Yes, just because somebody beats somebody greater than another has beaten doesn't automatically mean he's superior. I understand that. However, when you add him beating the Uber and the weapons involved and how it will likely play out... Leonidas wins more times than not.

But the Uber Immortal headed Leo his ass though and Leo won by help and last second sword grab while fearing for his life. I don't call that a clean victory, un assisted victory.

So it's settled: Leo throws his spear; Maximus attempts to block it not realizing that it's a super-spear thrown by a nigh super-human so it punches right through skewering his ass to death

Maximus dies due to ignorance; not skill. Well done, all 👆

No, if the god king can stand still and Leo missed, I'm sure Maximus can dodge a spear.

Leonidas didn't miss. He in fact made Xeres bleed, just as he prophesized earlier

So he didn't want to kill him before him and all his men died?

He did, he just had a moment of performance anxiety. Greeks, who can say with these people

Just because the camera is filming is slow motion does not mean he is moving faster then Maximus. Maximus takes people down in full speed camera just as fast, if not faster.

Indeed. Leonidas was never shown displaying speed like this:

There was LITERALLY nothing in that fight scene that was faster than the clip I showed and Leonidas regular does. Maximus is not faster.. Nor is his stronger... nor does he have superior weapons... nor is he more durable... Which is why Leonidas wins

I see what you mean, I think that is a clear video of Maximus being out classed by Leo. I guess I thought Max was better then he was.

Sinks your argument. Slo Mo fight scenes take a back seat to full speed fight scenes.

And yeah, Maximus is more durable. Dude took a knife to the lung and fought on.

Crazy talk. It took 14-19 arrows to take Leonidas out.

Now Maximus is more durable... Facepalm

No they don't... Show me where in the rules it says this... You're not the OP nor a mod nor did you write the rules. They do not take a back seat.

Maximus was shown fighting at a faster speed in real time than Leonidas was shown fighting at in the enhanced slomo. That's what I'm saying.
