Death Battle - Analyzing weapons, armor, and skills on the Internet since 2010.

Following up from this post:

So you guys remember back when I talked about how the Death Battle Writers United members would screech if you didn’t support BLM? Here’s the latest example of their whining.

Spoiler: Sperging about Mark Haynes and people defending him

Oh, boo hoo. He called something retarded. How about you grow a pair and stop being offended just because he brought up a good point?

These guys are still pissy about Mark not supporting Black Lives Matter (this isn’t the DA DB server, but it’s got some of the same culprits):

Found that some of the server’s members were arguing on another similar server:

Spoiler: Sperging about how “trap” is apparently transphobic

The trap = tranny argument is one of the basic litmus tests to see if someone is retarded.

So I decided to watch the episode, and right from the intro, I could tell I was in for a rough ride:

Wiz: Who runs the world?

Boomstick: The ladies! So obviously there's a bunch of awesome crime-fighting chicks out there.

Wiz: Like Barbara Gordon, DC Comic's vigilante known as Batgirl.

Boomstick: And Marvel's Gwen Stacy, the one you know as Spider-Gwen. He's Wiz and I'm Boomstick.

Wiz: And it's our job to analyze their weapons, armor, and skills to find out who would win... a Death Battle.

Come on, are you even trying? Also, this line from Batgirl’s rundown:

Boomstick: Y'know, how come she's called Batgirl when Dick gets to be Robin? Her identity and individuality shouldn't be anchored to the patriarchal idea that women are publicly defined by the men of their life.

Who the fuck wrote this?

The fight’s not that much better. It’s slow, janky, and the choreography is just abysmal. The characters stand still for a few seconds too long, the attacks barely have any impact, and the killing blow was ruined by the weird slow motion shots. Barbara’s model just looked ugly, and the voice acting came off as annoying more than anything.

It’s easily the worst thing they’ve made in a long time, and yes, that’s including the forgettable shit that was Wonder Woman vs She-Ra. Even Red vs Blue was better than this. At least that had a decent fight to it. This feels like it was their first time making a 3D fight. Hell, it’s worse than their actual first 3D fight.

Whoever wrote this shit probably cries at presidential debates.

For today’s dosage of lunacy on the Death Battle Discord, interrupting a debate channel to correct one of the users about an ex-writer’s pronouns:

Wasn’t able to screenshot it in time, but Merry Kirbmas originally called KamiZephyr “he.”

Also, slight powerleveling, but I actually do know the guy they’re talking about. He was a dick who often flooded his page with status posts whining about stuff in the VS community or giving hot takes where he tried to upgrade characters without giving context for how they reached the levels he claimed. Highlights include spending over a week whining about how Death Battle wanked Esdeath, whining whenever the show gave results he didn’t like, bitching about how certain feats were “gameplay mechanics” despite using those same mechanics to upgrade characters he liked, and claiming that Marvel’s characters are 6D to 7D.

You think so?

Here's the reference point before this gets too technical.

Honestly, shit about levels and how people talk about it and things like 6D is why I could never really understand online vs debating.

You think so?

I mean, at least with Link vs Cloud, each attack felt like it had weight behind it. Plus they made better use of both characters’ arsenals in that episode. Link used his sword, shield, arrows, and bombs. Cloud, while admittedly not portrayed as well in that department, at least mixed up his fighting by using his Limit Breaks. Batgirl vs Gwen only had Babs use escrima sticks for a few seconds and barely made any use of her grapple gun; whereas Gwen mostly used her webs and barely used her symbiote’s other abilities.

Honestly, shit about levels and how people talk about it and things like 6D is why I could never really understand online vs debating.

Trust me, you’re not missing much.

 

[Hooligan Handgun]

It’s all so tiresome.

Ben B. Singer (Rooster Teeth, #DeathBattle) on Twitter: "If you make a Death Battle reaction video and it gets blocked by bots, it's often an unintended side effect of protecting FIRST content. I know it's frustrating, but disputing it should fix it. Uploading after the DB is already public should also help." (archive.vn)

And what if my reaction is that it's shit and boring? Am I still allowed to dispute?

I’d say you’re allowed.

Honestly, it’s kind of a shame seeing this. I actually liked this guy’s art.

But of course, the server I’m on is all for it.

Don’t really bring up Death Battle Cast, but in a recent episode, the DB guys talked about their production process. Learn how to make an episode of Death Battle!

 

[Dumpster dived waifu]

Step 1, do autistic amounts of research on both parties
Step 2, ignore bits you just researched, because reasons
Step 3, get someone to animate it so it looks like ass
Step 4, release video on pat yourself on the back, you did your best

So apparently the server’s members caught wind of me posting its messages, because one of them made this announcement:

It’s kinda sad to hear that since aside from my issues with the server, I actually kinda liked going on there. I mainly just posted their messages on here for the hell of it and didn’t think they’d actually invest time to look for them, what with our reputation as a supposed doxing website and all.

I also can’t help but find it’s a bit hypocritical to take shots at lurkers when most of the users there were lurkers, and one of their members would’ve had to lurk on here and leak our messages for something like this to happen in the first place.

Well, on the plus side you can claim to be just about anybody in that channel to instantly guck someone over. Great job discord admin, should have just accepted that someone was quietly mocking you rather than go full stasi

How unfortunate. Let’s just hope there’s a way to get into the new server for you.

Nah, I think I’ll pass. I didn’t make it obvious, but I was actually getting tired of posting stuff from that server, anyway. There are only so many times you can screenshot people getting pissy over differing opinions before it just loses its luster.
