DEATH BATTLE

Huh... I might be able to be sold on that one. I don't know how close it will be - my initial thoughts are that Barrett can call a Sat Kill on him - but still, maybe there is something more here.

Jax has speed and durability... I think? He can also become a giant, and if he fights Cyrax, can tank missiles.

Though, IIRC, Barret has an orbital laser = kill sat.

One of the Joestars vs. Kenshiro. Rapid-Fire Fisticuffs Pummel Duel FTW!

Hmm... anybody got any suggestions of Kenshin Himura from Rurouni Kenshin?

The description of Juggernaut is making me think of him vs Bayonetta. Who's got the better demonic pact?

Momohime or Kisuke, or maybe Mitsurugi?

Juggernaut is virtually invincible to physical attacks but weak against magic, so...

Most of her attacks are imbued with magic (including her bullets, which is why mundane handguns don't survive being used for long), so that'd bring things more even.

Jinx vs Gaige.

In Gaige's case, would she have all three skill trees maxed out? And what items would Jinx have access to and would she have all of her skills maxed out?

Hmm... true. I'm not a great League of Legends player so I don't know what her loadout's like. The one I've absorbed was using stuff like BF Dagger and Infinity Edge, mostly attack and critical-oriented stuff.

So, regarding that video... Does Deathstroke have any way to to even kill Deadpool?

Probably a liberal use of explosions.

Akuma TH, one of the G1 Researchers, made a death battle comic between Pucca and Arale if anyone is interested.

Exactly my thought. Isn't Deadpool kind of... immortal?

As immortal as Raiden and he still lost.

While Deathstroke is one of the main recipients of Badass Normal wanking in the DCU besides Batman, I really don't see how he can win.

From what I'm gathering... (In spoilers for those who haven't seen the preview yet)

And correct me if I'm wrong because my knowledge on both characters is lacking.

• Deadpool can lose if his current physical body is rendered incapable of fighting. While he is resurrected every time he dies, by Death Battle rules he loses if his current body dies.
• Deadpool can be killed via suffocation, such as if his head were to become detached from his lungs. If Deathstroke recognizes the healing factor by, say, doing something otherwise lethal to Deadpool, I'm thinking he would go by common sense and decide "well, let's try the head."
• Deadpool's banter could distract Deathstroke enough to keep him off his game and net the win, but then again Deathstroke is pretty hard to distract.
• Deathstroke has knowledge in a lot of actual martial arts. Deadpool has knowledge in a mishmash of things vaguely resembling martial arts from TV-land. Right?

Now, a question for those of you who know more about this:

• I know Deathstroke has amazing aim already, he probably comes close to or even surpasses Deadshot in that department. How about Deadpool? I mean, I'm sure he has good aim but what's his style with guns? Does he try to hit anything important, or does he just aim in the general area of the person at about a thousand rounds per second?

Do you think they'll take into account Slade from the Teen Titans show? Does that give Deathstroke any abilities he doesn't have in the comics?

... I wanted to scream in awestruck joy at the sneak peek of the "next-next" Death Battle, but had to restrain myself to avoid spooking my folks and looking like a madman.

One thing for sure, I very much hope that they do Deadpool's personality justice. I especially anticipate him cracking jokes at Deathstroke's Memetic Molester status with regards to his rather creepy obsession with Robin.

Long story short: Deathstroke is Slade Wilson, AKA evil mercenary Batman, and everything that that entails, only less rich and less full of bullshit. Deadpool is Wade Wilson, who started as a parody of Deathstroke, with a Wolverine-type healing factor, but then became fourth wall aware, constantly wisecracking, and full of references to other works' memes, for which he has a rabid fandom. As part of one storyline involving Thanos and Death itself, Deadpool is incapable of dying.

On that note, though it was previously used sparingly, this and Kirby vs. Buu will be the second and third battles in a row with one combatant being immortal.

Thanos got jealous of Deadpool's relationship with Death and cursed him with immortality by, so not only does he have a healing factor, he can't die. Also, he's gotten into the heads of a lot calmer people than Deathstroke.

Buu's not immortal, just really, really, really hard to kill.

Robin nothing, he was outright sleeping with Tara Markov

In the comics, not the cartoon.

We're talking all versions here.
