What do Goku and Superman, Mario and Sonic, and Link and Cloud all have in common? They’re all subjects of similar calibre and prestige with comparable histories and skill sets, prompting never-ending debates online arguing over who would win over the other in a fight. That is where ScrewAttack comes in with their Death Battle series to put these debates to rest, analyzing two contenders’ weapons, armor, and skills to find out who would win in these titular fights.
This isn’t the first time Death Battle hosts Wiz and Boomstick brought in a Sonic character, as Sonic, Tails, and Shadow among others have appeared in previous episodes. Today’s instalment, however, pits Amy Rose and her Piko Piko Hammer against the hammer-wielding valkyrie of Scott Pilgrim’s dreams, Ramona Flowers. Place your bets, because IT’S TIME FOR A DEATH BATTLEEEEEEE… below!
As a big fan of both Sonic and Scott Pilgrim, I’ve never felt this conflicted over a Death Battle episode before.
RoosterTeeth First subscribers can check out the latest Death Battle episodes—as well as any newly published RoosterTeeth content—a few days early before they become publicly available on the site and on YouTube. As a note, RWBY Volume 4 does premiere this Saturday for First members, so if you can’t wait another week…
That said, share your thoughts on today’s episode with us in the comments, as well as any pair-ups you’d like to see in future Death Battle videos!
The fight is well animated for sure, definitely one of the better 2D fights in the series. I’m also pretty satisfied with the result, to not give away too much.
As for which character I would like to see? Blaze and Silver are the first two that comes to mind. Wouldn’t have the slightest idea on who their opponents would be (and besides pitting Silver with Trunks is a death wish for the psychic hog).
Kinda bit nervous of watching this especially after the last time Amy Rose was in a Death Battle related Video (She lost to King Dedede in a Death Battle X One Minute Melee a few Months ago now).
Ended watching it anyway. The Result was better than I expected it to be.
These guys need to do Megatron vs Tirek. Especially with the success of Starscream vs Rainbow Dash.
Funny you should say that, the Tirek episode is airing on TV as I type this LOL
*SPOILERS FOR THE BATTLE IN THIS COMMENT*
I was honestly, truly expecting Amy to lose this, considering that Ramona’s hammer has +2 against girls. So happy she won.
So, the score for the Sonic series is as follows:
Sonic vs Mario: win
Shadow vs Vegeta: loss
Eggman vs Wily: win (sort of)
Tails vs Luigi: win
Knuckles vs Donkey Kong: loss
Shadow vs Mewtwo: loss
Amy vs Ramona: win
Silver next then?
Oh, also, my ideas for future Death Battles.
Shulk vs Sora
Demoman vs Junkrat
Luffy vs Popeye
Marx vs Flowey
I’m so happy!
Our girl Amy pulled through!
Hammer time just turned a new shade of pink!
Oh god finally! It felt like every other time a Sonic character was featured there was a heavy lean to make them lose, but it feels so good to see Amy of all characters be one of the few that won out. I’m still disappointed that they treated their last two Sonic death battles like jokes, Knuckles and Shadow deserve better judgement and consideration than just “lol Shadow keeps forgetting stuff” and “haw, Knuckles is a dummy”. But at least this one actually felt like a carefully considered decision, and in the end the one I rooted for came through. Way to go Amy, keep it up girl!
This should have been amy rose vs yuno gassai ?
