TDB: SEASON 2! LEON (RE4) vs LARA CROFT

[BirthNote]

Yea, and Spyro could just ram him.

 

[tocador]

Crash is faster, fox > komodo lizzard(closest thing to a dragon we have).

With that said, if crash could fight and with speed advantage he should have the upper hand in melee.

But still, the fire thingy is kinda annoying.

 

[REL38]

Doesn't Spyro, ya know, shoot fire from his nose?

 

[MarthTrinity]

Spyro wins hands down. Size advantage means nothing but him being an easier target to roast. Up close, Spyro rams him with his horns; impaled bandicoot. Spyro's pretty fast too, especially while charging...Crash however is really only fast if he's using those dashing shoes he gets at the end of Crash 2/3.

So in short...this matchup is laughably one-sided.

Also, triple pink post, awesome xD

 

[Sgt. Baker]

Was this discussed before but does Crash have his Tiki Masks? If so can't he technically just keep coming back from injuries and damage?

explain how this would work.

what phenomena would make him magically arise from great injury/death like this?

A komodo dragon(closest thing we have to spyro) runs AT TOP 27 mph. While a bandicoot can top speeds of about 30 mph.

So how in EARTH is spyro suposed to be faster than crash? O yeah, and did i forget to mention that the komodo is at least aerodinamic to run, whereas freegin spyro has a pair of wings to slow him even more?

Crash, is technically a "human-bandicoot" meaning he's able to stand on feet and at least be confortable as such. So he can easily own spyro. Just imagine a bull and a "torero". If you are slow as **** such as spyro and you are tring to RAM into a human(crash) you will get juked, and you wont EVER hit.

So if crash approaches he will easily OWN spyro by just dodging any possible RAM, and melee owning his ***.

O god is good being back.

 

[JOE!]

...spyro isnt built anything like a komodo...

also, how are wings DECREASING AERODYNAMICY? XD

 

[Rialdospaldacht]

Um...

Crash isn't a fox. He's a bandicoot. It's in his name.

 

[BirthNote]

Yes, bandicoots are rats.

 

[tocador]

Dragons are history as everyone knows(if you didnt sorry for ruining), but long ago these guys were made, and they were inpired on giant lizzards and stuff like that. One of the most reliable sources to where dragons came from is just a mistic view of the komodo.

Both have long tails, a scaled skin, even its body shape it similar! Spyro is just a not-fat komodo dragon. Komodos are just fat because in deserts at night its really cold, so the blobbery fat he has protects him from the cold.

And Wings are just stupid if you want to run! Imagine running.

Now imagine runninf with a really strong air pushing you back. This is what the wing are going to do. But now if he somehow manages to keep his wing close to his body, he will run faster, but still slower just because the wings are heavy and useless.

 

[BirthNote]

But Crash is a bandicoot. Bandicoots are rodents, and they definitely won't beat a komodo dragon-like creature.

 

[tocador]

Um...

Crash isn't a fox. He's a bandicoot. It's in his name.

Oops, i lacked the knowladge that crash wasnt a fox!

If you look, bandicoots are also called "light-footed speed", because you know, they are fast . Basically like a rat, but with the port of a big one, they can run to speeds of 30 mph!

But Crash is a bandicoot. Bandicoots are rodents, and they definitely won't beat a komodo dragon-like creature.

Spyro is a ***** komodo. He is purple and frail compared to one of those 300 KG beasts! Crash is a human sized bandicoot(basically) and is confortable with 2 feet. With this he can easily dodge rams and beat the crap out of Spyro, because he wont be able to fight him back >:D

 

[BirthNote]

Even with that in mind, is Crash going to just run from Spyro? And wouldn't Crash feel awkward running the way he did before he was mutated? He has a humanoid body now.

 

[tocador]

He isnt going to run from spyro, this is what purpurine komodos do, he is just going to beat in the old fashion way, run up to him, and beat the crap out of him, because being faster, and better in combat(aka having hands and better mobility than SPYRO) he can take spyro head-top-head

 

[BirthNote]

I don't know...since Spyro has komodo dragon features he could bite Crash if he got close. Or do whatever those animals do to kill their prey.

 

[Rialdospaldacht]

IIRC, Komodo dragons just bite once and tail the victim until it dies horribly from the infections it got.

 

[BirthNote]

Because of the rotten meat (and other things like bacteria) still in its mouth from past meals right? I forgot about that.

 

[Nova9000]

Komodos have powerful jaws to crush their prey and very potent saliva to break down their food. Spyro doesn't have that at all. Spyro seems to be very petite in general which could affect this MU. Sure Crash only has his bazooka and melee combat, but the size makes a difference in this MU. Plus, Crash has no regard for himself so he could body slam him if he watches out for the horns. However, there is one thing Crash can't contend with....

PH1R3!!

Spyro has flame breath, so he could zone Crash with it. Unless Wumpa fruit is proven to be very hard (looks like an apple/peach/mango hybrid that is as big as a cantalope), I don't see how Crash handles the flame.

W/ Flame: Spyro wins.
W/o Flame: Crash wins.

 

[BirthNote]

Good points, good points...

Wait since this is a realistic matchup, Crash has to carry that weapon which may or may not work. That could throw him off balance, unless he doesn't have it to begin with.

 

[Nova9000]

You may have a point there....

 

[Sgt. Baker]

explain how this would work.

what phenomena would make him magically arise from great injury/death like this?

His Tiki mask friend Aku Aku. I'm just looking off Bandipedia, so please correct me if I'm wrong cause I haven't played any of the recent Crash games:

He has the ability to grant players one extra hit point if they break an Aku Aku Crate and two extra hit points if the Player breaks two. (So I guess that means that he can protect/heal Crash from injury)
He has the power to grant temporary invincibility and break all the crates and enemies the player touches when 3 Aku Aku Crates are broken. (So he can give Crash temporary invincibility)
He can also use his energy to form beams or explosions. (Mah lazer)

In the end I was just wondering if he was allowed use the Aku Aku Mask or not? Honestly I don't believe the mask should be allowed though. That's just me xD

 

[UncleSam]

There would have to be crates scattered about the field which there aren't.
also explain invincibility IRL

 

[Sgt. Baker]

I don't think invincibility like this can be described IRL, the only way would be to say that the Mask had "magical powers"- and magic isn't real in real life scenarios. So then the mask is invalid to use like I thought yes?

 

[UncleSam]

yeah he couldn't use it, if he did it'd just be a face mask.
what material is it made of?

 

[Sgt. Baker]

I believe the mask (which originiated from Crash's islands) is just made of plain wood. Which, last time I checked, wood's a pretty good fire starter lol

 

[UncleSam]

yeah I was going to say that too.

 

[tocador]

Throw that mask away, the best it could do is scare a couple of mices and thats all rofl.;

 

[Xiahou Dun]

I'm still sticking with the "Crash punching him in the face" theory.

 

[JOE!]

Toc...what are you smoking?

1: look at the pic of spyro then the komodo....yeah. Really, how similar are you thinking these two are again?

2: komodos live on a tropical island, not deserts, i mean hell the pic you posted is of one ON A BEACH

3: Crash is not a fox...look at the pics Nova has posted/his avatar for what hen looks like. He is also human-ish size while Spyro is rather small

 

[BirthNote]

Crash is still small though.

 

[tocador]

Komodos are called KOMODO DRAGON for a reason you know that aight joe?

Dragons were represented since 4.000 AC(before crist i mean) as oposers to gods and such, and since the begginings of times it is known as a mithological creature that can bring whatever you beleive it can. For religion it means something, for orientals it means another, for the ancient mesopotamia people it meant another thing, it isnt really sure about its meaning or its creation, but a very good theory is that, UPON exploring deserts and such, explorers met the komodo, and like every animal in the old days were "hyped" the dragon emerged.

2. There isnt only A specie of komodo. Shame on you for thinking this.

3. I posted he is a bandicoot, and that he can **** him hard :D

 

[UncleSam]

oh we got some toc action going on here.
I know more about synthetic things so I'm backing out.

 

[MarthTrinity]

I'm still sticking with the "Crash punching him in the face" theory.

I'm still sticking to the "Crash goes to punch him in the face and then gets incinerated by Spyro's fire breath" theory.

Crash can't get in close enough without being burnt to a crisp regardless of his speed (as he's really not all that much faster than Spyro). Even if he -DOES- get in close enough, he's going to have to pretty much insta-kill Spyro or get burnt alive or impaled on Spyro's horns.

Just like with the Cloud/Crono fight; Crash's weapon is too stupidly impossible to use making it more of a pain than help. The only difference here is that Spyro can't be disarmed; he has a built in weapon in his fire breath. Would you rather get hit in the face with a peach or burnt alive? Spyro wins this easily as Crash has no way of even getting to throw a punch.

 

[tocador]

Just a question is spyro ability to spit fire a "questionable weapon" or a truth.

Plus, imagine this: Crash runs to spyro, dodge a possible RAM, jumps into spyro back and proceed to brake his neck.

Any questions?

 

[BirthNote]

Even if that works, it is an imagination.

I still stick with Spyro

 

[MarthTrinity]

I remember JOE saying that fire breath is theoretically possible but...I guess we'll wait on his call for that one

 

[tocador]

I mean we allready proved that charizard couldnt do it b4, so i cant why it would be so hard to prove this time arround

 

[Nova9000]

I actually proved that it is possible, hence why Bowser and Charizard can spit fire. Just sayin...
But it's good to see you again in the thread Toc. Good times....

 

[JOE!]

Yeah, fire breath was given back

anywho, ther eis only ONE SPECIES OF KOMODO DRAGON, and theyre liards, and share almost no similarties with the mythical dragons spyro is based off of, which get it's features from horses, big cats, crocodiles, serpents and eagles

in fact, lets break this down based on the two pics you provided:

similarities between spyro and a komodo MONITOR LIZARD:

Reptillian, Deadly mouth, long tail

Differences:

body shape, feet, head shape, spines/horns, FIRE BREATH, crest on tail and head, WINGS, different legs alltogether, color, type of scale structure, eyes, nostrils, etc, etc, ETC

in short, you really cannot compare spyro to a komodo dragon, a tropical giant lizard that kills buffalo with a single bite.


Going into history, no...Komodo Dragons only live on the KOMODO ISLANDS, and were discovered in 1910. So no desert, and no religious hype for calling them dragons...they were simply called that due to their tremendous size and deadly bite. the specie's actual name is the Komodo Island Monitor.


so tl;dr: learn about the **** animal you're gonna compare something to
