Welcome back into Super Branca. Bro's My name is Jay, your host and your personal bracketology. And as always, sitting across from me Today I have Eli, my co

spk_0:   0:26
personal bracketology ist slash assistant to the bracketology ist to be determined. How you doing today, Eli? I feel like waking up from, like, a comatose thousands of years in the future and going on like an adventure. I'm still undecided whether or not I want to do that. Yeah, you kind of feel like you might just run around a plateau with your underwear on and cut dogs. Yeah,

spk_1:   0:47
e Otherwise,

spk_0:   0:49
I'll just, like, drink a bunch of booze and invent next weapon of mass destruction. I don't know what one of the other. Yeah, I hear you. I I relate to that. Yeah. So you the listener talking to you. Now you have found super bracket Broz the podcast in which menial I hear we have taken 32 fictional characters, put them in a grand tournament against each other to see just who is the best of the best. And today we have link from breath of the wild coming in as the three seed and on the other side. We have Iron Man from the Marvel cinematic universe coming in as the two seed. We have these two fighters going up against each other in this second round of this tournament, and not to mention the last match of the Super 16 s. So excited. Feel like we just started way back when? Yeah, like somehow there have been eight matchups in the Super 16. I feel like it's gone five times as fast as the round of 32. It's almost like that's how math works. But yes, so this is the last one. The winner of this match up will go up against the one seed of this bracket, Wonder Woman who won last week against Sufferer Off. So let's talk a little bit about these fighters, how they got here, and then we'll get into the fight. So in their respective previous battlefields, Link, having just defeated Hiccup and toothless portal, opens up on the high rule plateau and he walks through, enters the super bracket. Bro's anti chamber encounters are super bracket rose gnomes, which we have established a manager, assistant to the manager and just indiscriminate amount of knows yes, absolutely so we have our gnomes. They are there to hell Are fighters in between battles? So no carry over. And then we have our super bracket Rose branded dwarves on the side, repairing any weapons that need to be repaired. Which link has a lot of weapons? He does have a lot of weapons besides Magnus. Probably the most weapons. Yes, I mean, like just virtue of backpack size. Yes, So they probably take the master sword over, do some tinkering. And then, in the meantime, he is going to be viewing the fight between Iron Man and Pennywise from the round of 30

spk_1:   3:04
two. Link is so unfortunate he has to watch this horror movie. Not only that, but he's going to

spk_0:   3:10
glean absolutely nothing from

spk_1:   3:12
it. Yeah, it's Prime Auriol Beast. It's almost like he's

spk_0:   3:15
watching just a guy in his house. Be afraid exactly like it's just it's a penny wise move. It's an it movie with with with Tony Stark, Cap it, having happened to be there, Obviously, Pennywise is gonna like mess up link more than he did it more than he did. Iron Man. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, So let's all together take a look at that tape quick, and then we'll we'll get right back to the discussion.

spk_1:   3:40
Pennywise, the clown from the Stephen King universe of movies and books going up against none other than Tony Stark, Iron Man from the Marvel cinematic universe. The biggest thing with Pennywise is like he's a master of illusion. He gets his rocks off by, like killing people at the height of beer. I mean, he's going to try to scare Tony to death. Can he do that? Before Tony puts it? Puts the beat down on him. I imagine him in most scenarios that he overcomes. Pennywise, like mentally like, eventually will see through the hallucinations, even though he may go through a panic attack. Or to I give Tony eight out of 10 times

spk_0:   4:25
and we're back. So what did Link see? Just a really smart mouth like that was based on the reason. I mean, OK,

spk_1:   4:40
all these like

spk_0:   4:41
superhero carriers. I keep wanting to call them by their actor names. Yeah,

spk_1:   4:45
I almost said Robert Robert Downey Jr But, um, you know, I think it's

spk_0:   4:50
more of a cursory glance at Just Iron Man's. You know, he flew, Um, he used probably some of those projectiles and everything. He just knows. He's fighting somebody with lot arranged character, essentially with Ranch Gate built in flight, which, you know, Link just fought somebody with ranged and flying ability. Yeah, exactly. I don't think I mean, not that Link experiences a wide range of emotion, but I don't think he's going Teoh be fazed by Iron Man it all, or his abilities that, you know. I think he's gonna pick up on what Iron Man's all about. But he's not going to know the range of Iron Man's abilities. I don't think no because that, you know, we're using the Nano. See it from the end of endgame, which just has this whole cavalcade of, Oh, it has endless possibilities essentially, and I have to assume in the fight with Pennywise they he saw some nano machines, but he's assuming that's probably some magic or something. Yeah, it's He's an elf boy. Essentially, it's magic like that. There's no like two ways about this link. You know, we're using this iteration of length because he's the most recent, but he's also one of the most combat Savvis, like he was the bodyguard of the Princess yet for the calamity you fought Calamity Gannon, who is basically ah, horror monster in it of himself. Yeah. So this this link doesn't you know he's not gonna be phased? Really? He's gonna be prepared, as any warrior will be. Oh, yeah, I think so, too. S o on the other side. We have Iron Man walking through the portal. What? I mean, how does even treat our gnomes? I

spk_1:   6:28
feel like he doesn't even just he looks down and it's just like, No, I'm not dealing with that. They try the

spk_0:   6:35
hand of the the the iPad with the video, and he's like, I don't like to be handed things. You should know this should This should have been in my in my resume.

spk_1:   6:44
Where's my scotch? You're gonna pour with

spk_0:   6:47
me away? I expect. Scotched one of the gnomes, like has a pop up bar nearby ready to go

spk_1:   6:53
for investing yet? Mustache? Exactly. It

spk_0:   6:58
looks like he's had a tough

spk_1:   6:59
life. Got the lengths.

spk_0:   7:01
Interactions with their gnomes and doors are just the most basic, like, respectful thing. And oh, yeah, I mean, that's just being a dick. The nose of dwarves with link aren't going to say anything. They're all just gonna have this mutual silent understanding his head just had not Iron Man on the other side is like, he's definitely gonna, like, pick them on me. Like, how do you work? Or you an animatronic and looks like shake him a little bit late. What's going on in the inside here? Like a like a piggy bank. Some Eventually he does see the film. Let's take a look at the film here and we'll get right back into it. We have link on one side on the other. We

spk_1:   7:39
are going to have pick up, and toothless pickup is gonna be riding to bliss during the fireball. That is the main main motive attack here. But he is able to use the updraft from burning grass to be able to watch himself into the air. We haven't even talked about Stasis yet. Yeah, this is the make or break thing for like, I imagine the Stasis probably only freezes one. I mean, if it worked once, that's very detriment. A little alone more than once. So I'm gonna go link seven out of 10 times,

spk_0:   8:09
and so we're back. And so now, Ironman witnessed the fight between Link and Hiccup and toothless, No Iron Man's hyper analytical more so than any other fighter and more than likely, possibly the most intelligent, raw, raw intelligence in the entire tournament. So, yeah, we like the mess around with, you know, the character Tony Stark, because he is funny and endearing. But when it comes down to brass tacks, he is, you know, second to Captain Captain America in The Avengers for leadership like he's second leadership. Please, First Intelligence, you know, you maybe make a case with Bruce Banner, but I mean, like, he's the one that came up with Ultron. He's the one that came up with all the suits and, like the nano particles by themselves, are incredible, you know, and he takes that into battle. He was the one that stood up to Faneuil's even when Dr Strange didn't necessarily get a scratch on him. So in viewing the fight with Link and Hiccup and toothless, what are the key things that he picks up on his links abilities? Just all the abilities, you know, he fights against other you know, superpower characters who usually have one stick to, and that they Dio link has just what we talked about. His swordsmanship, his equipment, the magnetism, the flock, the gliding abilities. We saw some of hiss guardian abilities summoning a flurry of wind, having extra lightning, lightning attacks for a NAO we effect like he's just got a basically check down all these abilities for Lincoln has to assess them each individually and come with countermeasures for each one. I give him the credit to be able to do on the fly and, you know, have ready by the time the battle actually starts, you know, and as a eyes going to assist him, it's almost like he doesn't even need the AI. It's gonna be, um so, yeah, he's got Friday the ai to pick up on anything that he might actually miss somehow. So, yeah, I think he more than anybody viewing the tape on the previous opponent will be a significant advantage for Iron Man going to the battle. You know, everything is gonna throw the iPad, like on the floor. Well known,

spk_1:   10:14
tries to catch. Yeah, exactly. It was like,

spk_0:   10:17
Where's my suit portals opened? Back up. Our fighters are healed and ready to go. All equipment is sent. They walked through the portals. What is going to be home field advantage for Tony Stark? Well, we have 23 movies to pick from that. Of all the locations. We thought it would be fun if we did it at Avengers Tower in New York City. Yeah, I think Avengers Tower formally. Stark Tower is a great place for Tony's home field advantage, and I think it provides Tony with advantage being in New York, but also think it's funny to think about Lincoln, New York

spk_1:   10:51
todo it just

spk_0:   10:52
looks around. It's like this is an odd dungeon.

spk_1:   10:54
Yeah. Which dungeon is this?

spk_0:   10:57
So I was thinking, like inside the bar where the end of the first Avengers movie takes place, where the whole smashes Loki back and forth. I was thinking in that. So right. Right inside. You know, this fight is starting with Tony Stark at the bar with a Scotch. Oh, yeah, exactly. So he'll be like, Oh, perfect I can actually make and how I want to

spk_1:   11:20
make you know, he starts this

spk_0:   11:21
fight in a suit, right? He's got the aviator glasses on. He's just sitting there. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Like he's I mean, I think last time with penny wise, we had him, like, starting in his pajamas or something like, Yeah, I know. He's in full suit and tie attire, walks up to the bar, mixed himself a drink, offers one toe link, says nothing and heat

spk_1:   11:42
theano tiff. ASUs. I don't own a start.

spk_0:   11:46
Yeah, I know. Just, like looks blankly onwards towards Tony and maybe maybe not like shakes is a de Locate him. Yeah. Tough guy, huh? You're more of caps company? Yeah. Put the drink down, throws the glass, dons the suit, Nana seats distributed off. And then we're fighting starts. And who's beginning the fight they both going for, right? I mean, I I would think so. I mean, certainly Tony is, you know, and link probably grabs the sword, gets ready toe perry an attack or to defend himself for Thio going for a strike. And so I sort of I see Iron Man opening up with Hizb arms in like, a blade to form or like in a gauntlet for me they're, like, one to cause, like, blunt damage or one to, like, do some slashing damage. So I see him going like swordfighting with Link a little bit and then also having one in like, hammer form to be able to try toe injure him. I see that, too. And that brings up a really interesting dynamic in this fight, cause Iron Man is super, you know, analytical and has a powerful suit in technology and everything. But Link is a master swordsman. Yes, is his domain. And do you think this might be a case? Because Lincoln have an opportunity for up close combat in the last fight, right? Dealing with a fighter jet? Essentially. Yeah. So it's almost like Iron Man doesn't have that. I mean, obviously has a sword and shield, so we can glean. Okay, this guy's probably a swordsman, but he doesn't know how good of a swordsman Linkous. The thing is, if he didn't clean it from the video, I think he's able to assess his opponents fighting style on the fly. You see it in his battle against Captain America in civil war. When he's losing the battle, he turns it around by telling Friday. Okay, analyze the fat fight pattern. We're going to take this guy down, and he takes a couple more hits and Friday, analyzes the movements and then is able to unload a counter attack. And so I see something similar happening here. Will Link gets in a lot of early hits in this battle where he is just better than Tony at up close combat. And so I I sort of see Link taking a quick advantage. But I don't necessarily know if it lasts very long, right? And so that initial flurry of blows we talked about last episode with suffer off, you know, coming to blows and everything and almost being to his detriment. But Link, I think, isn't as element here. And we'll get those early Nixon everything, maybe even draws like some blood if it cuts through the Nano suit because it's not, you know, impervious. No, it's not. It's certainly not impervious, I would say almost that it's probably less impervious than most of his suits, I would say, especially the slashing damage. Yeah, because I don't think Link is lopping off any limbs or

spk_1:   14:34
by any means. Yeah, we've been pretty

spk_0:   14:37
PG violent wise throughout the show. Yeah, like And so I see it doing damage, though, Like I see it, you know, injuring his arms, you know, or getting through the suit and the suit, like quickly re materializes in that same space and covers it back. No, My question is so he starts recognising a battle pattern with Link. Um, and you know, tells Friday, Analyze this in these in these close quarters section of the fight Do you think Link takes any serious damage? I don't think it's any serious damage. I assume it's light damage, but the key is less than what Iron Man's taking. Yeah, in the first couple of minutes, that's what else. And so now the question is because Iron Man's got to know even with his battle analytics, you can't stick close quarters forever. We've talked a little bit about the short range here, and I think Link takes the distinct advantage. But I think Iron Man is going to control this battle just due to his mobility. The fact that he can fly anywhere that he wants to and link can Onley glide down, you know, like so I think Iron Man is gonna dictate where and when this battle takes place, and when he wants to engage with link and so I could see him creating some distance, flying out the window and going for arranged approach. Here. Do you see the second Iron Man sort of bugs out the window link takes his his short bow and start slinging arrows. Do you see any of those? There was making contact. It's hard to imagine it's hard to imagine Iron Man taking any damage from a bone out, right. I mean, he has bomb Eros. Ice airs electric arrows like they're not just arrows. But even if they do make contact like they're not coming out rapid fire. No, I mean he He's a master swordsman. 100% Link is one of the best swordsman in this tournament. Like right there with Chef Roth? Probably, but I He's not Hawkeye. However, I do think it's important to bring up in Breath of the Wild, which is the text or drawing from. He does have bullet time with his bone marrow, and maybe that could help him get in one clean shot that Tony Stark doesn't expect. He doesn't have to be in the air to activate the bullet game. Don't you

spk_1:   16:47
just, like, hop a little bit that she's the system I e. Give you

spk_0:   16:53
headed down like a slight hill, like within the last, like half a second, and it's not even worth it to do it. It ordered activated. He would have to jump off the building. So which he has his glider. So that's not a big deal. I'm assuming our men will fill out the window, start hovering and just start bombarding with, you know, the Rockets, the laser beams and everything which is being able to dodge. But this is where the guardian abilities might come into play, because the first play might be to bring out revolvers. Gail, that column of air. Yeah, bring him upwards. So he does have the column of air to be ableto go vertically. It's limited to three times per battle, so I could see it working minimally. But I mean, if firemen it's is it's the same thing with the hiccup and toothless fight. I mean, I airmen, it works out of once, you know, and maybe not even once, because he saw him do it in last battle. Not a subtle technique. What so No, it's not at all like he can see it coming, and I mean, really, he just has to go straight up. You just have to gain altitude as fast as possible. And it's incredibly hard for link to hit him with the bow and arrow. Still, because if he's firing that thing straight in the air, it's not going. It's not going to gain a lot of momentum like Gravity's working against it then. And Iron Man's incredibly fast. Yeah, he's a jet. Not just reaction times, but just raw speed. Yeah, propulsion like you saw him flying on par with fighter jets. Exact and not to mention like in Infinity War, his entire torso turned into one giant rocket. It's like which he can do in in a few seconds, time to be ableto escape us an area. But I mean so we give credit the link for being intelligent. But do you think he's that intelligent toe wear to avoid Revolves Gail at all? I mean, he's going to use his whole tool set right the way that already the way this fight is going, I feel like Link has to pull out all the stops. So I think he at least has to try. I don't think iron men will be able to a counter attack. If link is in bullet time. If he uses revolve these Gail. So I don't think it necessarily detriments either side. I just think it's a moot point. So, yeah, I think in the bullet time, I think, like, probably if he has a bomb, a bomb, Eros, that probably hurts. Yeah, he does have ancient arrows as well, which do a ton of damage. So I guess I could see I could see that possibly being an issue because it's based off, like the ancient tech that you find in breath of the wild, which is probably on par with sort of the Norse gods. Yeah. Yeah, exactly. Maybe the ancient arrows get him win one or two hits. But, I mean, that's a couple hits in the grand scheme of this battle that I think Iron Man is able to recover from, because, I mean, you talk about his durability, like he proved that in its fight with that nose. Yeah, and so Okay, So the Rev. Alley Gayle, you know, Arab bombardment happens. Maybe Tony Stark is thrown off a loop or whatever falls to the ground. Link gently floats back down or something. and in the fight, it almost seems like Iron Man has taken a bit more damage. May be linked. Caught a few debris or a bomb. You know, the Rockets from the laser has to hit, you know, at some point Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly. And that, like, he's gonna have his shield, obviously, to be able to protect himself. But Ironman can continuously do the laser just like Lincoln continuously do the shield. So he has this highly and shield, which you know, it's not breaking in this fight. It's a magical shield. But he also has one of his guardians abilities is de Roques protection, which gives him three free hits. Essentially any hit that Ironman deals is null applied three times. And not only that, it also deflects guardian lasers. Which in the game are the laser beams Akin Teoh iron fans, laser beings? I see that is equitable. So I mean, if he uses droops protection against the beams like everything like, I certainly see it working once and it goes straight back at Ironman and and takes a chunk out of his nanoparticles. Certainly E, I guess. Like how does Iron Man work around that I mean, or does he just take the three hits and continues to fight? Well, it's like if they're not reflecting rockets, Yeah, they're not reflecting Malay. I like. Maybe he just goes in for a laser beam and shoots back and hit some deals. Massive. I don't know how much damage money, decent amount damage and then just says, Okay, laser beams. No, let's try these and send rockets and shit in the roots will be wasted. Essentially. So I think it s fight the derricks protections good for one reflected laser being, But it's pretty much done after that. Yeah, because, I mean, he's going to continue to use it, you know, as opposed to getting hit. So s So what else do we have? We have one that provides him with an extra life. So essentially doubles his longevity in this fight. And then the last one is the electric A We attack. I could see it possibly being effective. On the other hand, I could also see it boosting Iron Man, You have two examples. One in the first Avengers movie where Thor is fighting. Iron Man uses the bolt of lighting on him and all of a sudden you have Jarvis coming in and telling him you're a 5000% power, sir. On then, also in Endgame floor intentionally blasts Ironman in the particle suit in order to launch an extremely devastating laser beam against Danos in the final fight. So Okay, so I did not know. I totally forgot that part of endgame. So essentially this, it's almost like Lutfi versus Cap. This is a major component of links abilities not only being negated but being used to the benefit of Iron Man s O. With that first or boss's fury, it's gonna be supercharged an attack again. And length probably has the wherewithal just like crap. One of my when my trump cards

spk_1:   22:45
is useless. Yeah. Yeah. Not only useless,

spk_0:   22:47
but a detriment. Yeah, I don't like Yeah, he's going to use it. I mean, and there's no I don't think there's any reason that he would believed to not use it either. So I certainly seem using it once and then. Not

spk_1:   23:00
again. That's not do that. Yeah.

spk_0:   23:03
Yeah, exactly. So let's We're gonna take a quick break, cut the halftime for you, and then we will be back with the same or Iron Man conversation and a decision.

spk_1:   23:20
And welcome to your halftime show.

spk_0:   23:22
We are back with you again and we have a fantastic matchup for you today. This comes from R. J of the better buddies podcast, great friend of this podcast. So we very much appreciate the suggestion. And as a reminder, if you have a suggestion like the one we're about to discuss, please, please, please email us at Super Bracket bro's at gmail dot com. Or message me on any of our social media's Facebook or instagram. We also accept the messages in bottles, pigeon carriers and smoke signals. Absolutely. But today the mentioned that we're gonna be discussing, we have Chucky from not Chuck E. Cheese. I know you got excited. They're you know, we've got Chucky from the child's play universe, I guess. Yeah, I mean, it's got a lot of movies. So I suppose going up against the crew cast of Toy Story. Yeah, sort of the main characters, which I'm guessing we're going. Woody Buzz, Jesse Bullseye,

spk_1:   24:27
Both slinky. Okay, so let's just go with the cast. Let's say

spk_0:   24:30
Chucky winds up in Andy's toy room. Yeah, like that Toyota, Andy's mom has made a horrible decision for Andy. That's how I see this breaking down and that Chucky is in Andy's room. I repeat, Chuck

spk_1:   24:45
years in Andy's room on Halloween and the toys, they're just like, Oh, we got a new friend

spk_0:   24:49
and they all greet Chucky, who bursts out with a kitchen knife, brandishes and

spk_1:   24:53
the heavy, which comes with the kit for something. And so okay, if this taking place in

spk_0:   24:58
an easier and we gotta assume it's like all the toys Yeah, I'm a suit like I want choking to have a moment with all that. I I I imagine Rex immediately runs out of the

spk_1:   25:09
room. Absolutely. And

spk_0:   25:11
ham follows right behind. Yeah, they're like, See you later, guys. We're going to find a new owner and conversely, Buzz. And just here on this ship right away. Oh, yeah. Buzz is so prepared. He has been waiting for this day for so

spk_1:   25:26
long. I feel like it has a shotgun or something. Thes hey,

spk_0:   25:33
saw a commercial for these damn Chucky toys on TV. Once he's been waiting alien intruders. So buzz probably does something useless, like point a laser Adam or something. It's probably up to the other toys actually do something here. Well, okay, so this is interesting, because if they get decapitated, limbs cut off, it's not mortal, you know, Know that they keep on chucking bone keeping on. So my

spk_1:   26:01
first Liza toy story crew because they have

spk_0:   26:03
so many people versus one doll. Yeah, Chuckie's powerful, but you know that whole What is it? One horse sized duck or, like, 10?

spk_1:   26:12
Oh, God, Yeah. Duck sized horses. You take the one big duck. Yeah. You take the one big duck. Yes. On Su said that fucks on Sue, You're the art of war. Yeah, I know The art

spk_0:   26:26
of war asks that question. So he okay? You're telling me I would rather fight a duck the size of a horse rather than 10 horses the size of ducks? Yeah. Are you kidding me? What? Why

spk_1:   26:41
would you fight 10 of something? Why would I fight anything

spk_0:   26:45
that's bigger than me? Why

spk_1:   26:47
would I fight a £500 duck? Because it is one duck versus 10 horses. A big duck. They're gonna beat you by few. Your number. I could just kicked the horse and they'll kick while you're kicking 11 will kick you in the share. Tiny. Do you know how tiny ducks are? They're tiny creatures. Yeah, but these air horses put their tiny whatever. But you get my point, right? Apparently not. What? So you

spk_0:   27:11
okay, So in the okay, would you rather fight Chucky or the whole toy story crew? I mean, Chuck, he's killed a lot more people.

spk_1:   27:17
Yes, but he's one guy. You could punt, Chucky. I mean, yeah, you could You could go up, grab buzz. But what? Chucky's not the size of a horse, if not about. It's about the idea. If it's not about the

spk_0:   27:32
horse and I don't know what the fuck it

spk_1:   27:34
is you want to fight one singular opponent versus a dozen smaller opponents. That's the whole point. This is what breaks the pot e.

spk_0:   27:45
I see your point. But I wholeheartedly disagree with your anecdote.

spk_1:   27:49
Waken start a tournament of different sized animals. Figure that out. You know, you can make your gonna make the giant duct, the one seed and the fucking horses, the five seed or whatever. I mean, would you

spk_0:   28:02
rather face a snake the size of an elephant, which is basically a basket

spk_1:   28:06
lis or 10 elephants the size of snakes. Those air. Wait. You mean the size of snow? Because they're, like

spk_0:   28:13
long, Just tiny elephants. Man, they're just tiny elephants.

spk_1:   28:17
Well, no, I don't I'm not finding a fucking Bassel ISC. Exactly. The door also to your point, the hairy defeated a basket list by himself. He did not fight bunch of elephants. Oh,

spk_0:   28:30
I'm sorry. Do I have fucking magical powers I don't know

spk_1:   28:33
about? This is this is a conversation for a different pockets, But let's get back to the

spk_0:   28:37
point, Chucky. Okay? Tory Sawyer wins, right? The numbers. Yeah. Slinky, like 80 eighties him. Okay, we agreed. Toys,

spk_1:   28:46
story ones. But this is the

spk_0:   28:47
real conversation, okay? But I just need you to understand that it's a case by case basis, and I'm not always gonna want to fight the bigger thing,

spk_1:   28:55
right? Yeah. No. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. It's not literally about the tickets. You kind of made it literally seem about the dust. Eli. Son Su said it. He didn't mean it. Literally.

I'm sorry I haven't brushed up on my art of war recently. Yeah, you know, the whole chapter where he talks about ducks and horses. Well, apparently it's That's what the whole book is about. According to you, most most historians forget about that part.

spk_1:   29:21
I think it's a little weird. That's the

spk_0:   29:25
art of work, too.

spk_1:   29:27
The director. DVD Seafood. Yeah. Anyway, this is half time. Thank you for listening. Things better half

spk_0:   29:35
time. Thank you for listening. Follow us on social medias and you keep updated on all the episode. Additionally, very soon. Actually, pretty much when this episode drops, make sure to stay tuned into our social media because we will be posting access to the server in which you could determine who is going to be fighting in season two. You

spk_1:   29:56
get to decide,

spk_0:   29:57
you get to decide. So we have come up with a decent list of characters that either are in the news right now or have media coming up that will be released and characters that we in general 11. You're gonna be ranking them based on strength so that we know exactly how to see these fighters. So that's gonna create a more interesting bracket for us. More interesting conversation for you. I'm pulling for my underdog Thea, the horse sized duck, the horse says, Uh, so thank you for dealing with are somehow dumber than usual. Halftime and we will get back to the main show here for you. And welcome back from that riveting halftime the best one. But so let's give back into serious business here. Yeah, fight between an alcoholic billionaire and enough last we left off. We had Link using his arrows, using his guardian abilities, more or less, to no avail. I think he got most of his damage in by, well, using drugs Protection wants to deflect the laser, additionally, using his sword in close combat to do damage, which I don't think Iron Man is going to stick around for a lot of that. Yeah, which you remind me during the break. We have a couple more link things to discuss. I mean, we've been talking about link, you know, ad nauseum, but he is the one with all the game breaking mechanics. That is this one exactly like he's got lots of literal mechanics that we have to discuss. And I think Ironman is sort of you get him at face value and he's more of a reactionary character because of, especially because of the nano suit, right? I mean, he can come up with solutions that we can think of that can only be thought of on the fly. You know, I mean, like, an adapter to extra absorb lightning that comes his way. Or, you know, creating ah shield that's separate from him to, like, block in Ancient Arrow or something like that, because, I mean, he he has a literal energy shield that he can use to. Yeah, you know. So I mean, he's got lots of different things, but they come up as necessary. Let's talk about links. She could sleep. Let's go down the list. We've got bombs useless, right? They might come in handy in extraneous circumstances. Link completely forgets about them, but they're definitely not as Yeah. I mean, like, because they remote detonated, maybe laying a trap or something. Maybe.

spk_1:   32:35
Yeah, this is a

spk_0:   32:35
moot point. Let's be. Yeah, um, he's got magnetism. That might be big, because, I mean, there Nano's panel machines would they be affected? I don't I don't know. This is kind of like a So here's what I think it might be a moot point because you can't really You can't use the magnetism on opponents. OK, you can use it to hurl things that opponents metal objects. But you can't necessarily use that. You can't use it to, like, steal a metal weapon out of somebody's hands. So if you can't use it to steel sword out of somebody's hand, I don't necessarily see it working on Ah, hi Nano particle tech. However, that the former part of your sentence is pretty applicable in that they're in a concrete jungle. Yes. Yeah, they are. So I mean, if the way the plane just hurling a girder.

spk_1:   33:24
Yeah, just metal as

spk_0:   33:26
fuck. Yeah. Yeah, exactly. So I mean, it's certainly that that is applicable. And then the big one Stasis Stasis remind me Jay completely freezes the opponent completely freezes the opponent or in an animate object, and more or less how how it works. Is it sort of scales with the opponent size, the bigger the opponents or the more boss battle Lee the opponent, the less time it will freeze the opponent for, and that makes sense because that would be super busted. But the fact that he's able to freeze for any period of time kind of saved him in the fight against Hiccup in Toothless. Yeah, I think it was the major factor that won him that fight for sure, because I mean being able to freeze one or the other and to separate those two, what's tremendous. And so he'll be able to do the same thing. Toe iron man. Now I'm having a tough time thinking about how this applies this fight with Iron Man flying everywhere. Blink can't use this continuously. And I mean, we speculate how long he actually freezes Ironman four. I mean, talking maybe 3 to 5 seconds. OK, because I want to ask you that because maybe a strategy. He has revolves. Gale, where if he freezes Ironman in midair, he could jump up and just start hacking Adam, if given enough time and he can pull it, revolves Gail pretty quickly. That's true. Yeah, he could pull that out in the meantime, and even like extend the time that he's in Stasis by going into bullet time to and utilizing the ancient arrows and deal quite a bit of damage and then drops off a bomb and leaves and

spk_1:   35:02
says, Do see, I could

spk_0:   35:04
see that as well. Eso spaces does some damage. So I know we moved the fight from the inside of the tower to the outside. Where do you see this fight taking place? From the mid to late section. Like where do you see the two traveling? Well, I'm trying, Teoh. There's two things I'm hearing about location and their levels of like damage right now, who's taken more damage because from the sounds like it took Iron Man took most damage in the beginning and prolonged. I think Link takes more damage at range, so I almost feel like they're both equal among, like, halfway through this fight. Yeah, I would say it's It's pretty neck and neck because I mean throughout all this, like Ironman still getting in highest tech homing missiles. And he can use the suit because it's so adaptable to literally create more missiles. If he needs more missiles, it's magic leg from drones, not to mention is fast enough to hone in on Link and get in there up close and get some essentially cheap shots out link when he needs to. I think to you, because I mean, even if he doesn't use the lasers to directly attack link he can use it to create explosions to create a distraction and then come up behind link in the in the do pretty and just deck. Um, because he has that capability. So I I sort of imagine, like, mid fight. This kind of goes from rooftop to rooftop because Avengers Towers is one of the tallest buildings in New York, and so you're gonna have lots of buildings below that you're gonna be able to go to. So I sort of see this going from rooftop to rooftop. And this is where it like, starts climbing everywhere, see Ironman like he's not like he is in New York. So I think there's gonna be a part of them that doesn't want to blow everything up instantly, you know? So I think he's going to try to keep damage to a minimum. But it's certainly gonna be going after well, with stopping iron man from just flying in tackling link and throwing them up into the air. Well, I mean, he could do that, but I mean, then link just floats down. I mean, he can freak his mo mentum at any moment with the glider. He could do it two inches from the ground and then use it to get to the ground. And he'll be fine, but then not floating. He's not a fast target gliding. Well, yeah, that's what I'm saying. Like he can just just straight fall 99% of the way there and then pop out the Clyde. Oh, I was like, like, honor off thing. He could just pop it out. He used pop it out when admit fall. Okay, So, like, I mean that when specifically I'm thinking about in the game, like when you're going up against guardians and like, if you're floating through the air, you're obviously very slow if you're you. If you're actively using the glider, you're slow. But you condone drop out and in back into the glider pretty much at will. It's obviously risky because if you don't reactivated before you hit the ground, if you

spk_1:   37:59
die ha ha

spk_0:   38:01
hey, pulls out the glider and to avoid guardian lasers like it's very relayed when they're gonna fire the laser like there's a tracking laser and then it launches at you. And to avoid that, you just drop out from the glider and then wait for the laser to go off and then you reactivate the glider. And I do see this fight probably taking place from, you know, descending from high, you know, Avengers tower to some of the smaller rooftops. And so far as we talked about this fight, Iron Man seems tohave the overwhelming power. But Link sort of has that scrappiness where it's just like he just keeps nipping at Iron Man's heels and pissing him off. So do you see who has the more level head in this fight? Probably Iron Man because of his ai. Yeah, I just think Iron Man is gonna be so in control of this fight via, like, his his abilities like that. The Iron Man suit presents him like it's especially the flying the the altitude, the ability because I mean, Link has three times in which he gets the launch himself 30 feet in the air. Iron Man can fly ad nauseum to any location that he wants at any time that he wants. And so he's gonna dictate the flow of this fight, and I think that's gonna instill him with confidence. So I don't see him getting rattled at all, and I mean not that link gets rattled, either. I mean, he's stone cold killer length. But like you said, Link is the reactionary in this fight. Whereas Iron Man is the one. Maybe in the beginning, during the close quarters link as you know, in command. But the second iron man bugs out. We're now in his domain because, I mean, in between all the things that we mentioned Link doing like he is constantly barraged link like there isn't a moment where he lets up against Link. And I think Link is slowly, like starting to take damage here and toe into slowly, like start to lose heart stamina. Wild has a stamina bar. Exactly. Yeah. And so I mean, like, we're assuming that this endgame links So he has quite a bit of stamina, but it's it's not infinite. I would say, You know, Iron Man's by the time he has his nano suit is pretty gosh darn near infinite. I think I have a decision in mind. I think we've exhausted pretty much most of these fighters abilities. So I'm gonna go Iron Man originally early in this discussion, you know, as we were developing the fighting, everything in my mind early in this fight. I was going with Iron Man six out of 10 times. But then you brought the lightning factor and the fact that powers up Iron Man, I think that instills more confidence in my vote. And I boat seven out of 10 times for Iron Man because of every point you just said and that he is the one dictating the fight. And, you know, Link obviously fights bosses who also dictate the flight, right? Yeah, but Iron Man is, you know, you know, he's the hero of the emcee. You The ai is just such a you know, look also fights ai. Yeah, but I mean, this is just, you know, also fighting a billionaire weapons manufacturer who is intelligent, smart, and also a cut throat both, you know, business savvy and fighting. And yeah, I just The ingenuity of link is only limited toe what his equipment gives him on dso his iron man. But his equipment is so much more versatile. Links domain is on the ground. He's not used to flying. Whereas if we're in the skyscraper in the air, Iron Man, I think has the advantage. So I'm again with that lightning boost. I just I can't see. I'm pretty confident in Iron Man. Seven out 10 times. I'm pretty confident. Ironman Two. I I was gonna go seven out of 10 as well. We haven't. We've talked a lot about Link and the roadblocks that he encounters. But also, I don't know if we've given enough credit to Iron Man in this fight because of I mean, you talk. The fight that I think about it is I mean, he went toe to toe with Anos and tried to, you know, take that gauntlet from him and he got up close with them and he used the nanoparticles, hold him to the ground, you know, and created this big boot out. And it's like, I mean, he could, you know, like, run up the link, pin him to the ground with the nanoparticles, and then just start whaling on him and, like, disarmed the master sword and and fling it away. Because, I mean, if he gets that master sword, there's no other weapon that I think stands a chance against Iron Man. There are no no weapon that Lincoln someone in this fight. But we talked about the ancient arrows, and I think that does its fair share damage. But I mean, all damage that happens to Iron Man is just taking nano particles away. Really? I mean, you have the cuts from the master sword early in the fight, but that almost seems negligible and less like he just doesn't have a way to really put Iron Man down. I think the only reason I'm not going it out 10 times is because of the guardian ability that gives Link a second life. Where in, you know, I think in those three fights, the extra life wears down Iron Man. But you know that's not sustainable. Yeah, with Fireman's at a adaptability and just range of abilities. Like you said, we've been talking about links so much in this fight because of all this tool set in. Iron Man is hope he's got lasers, rockets in an AI. But those three things, plus the other shit you can do with the Nano suit is just bonkers. Yeah, exactly like some of the energy shield at any moment. Like someone a laser. When he needs to someone rockets. When he needs to turn the Nano sue into like a clamping mechanism. And if you lose some of his nanoparticles, then like he can pull them from other parts of his body that he doesn't need at the moment like he could turn. He can put his two arms together and make an even larger laser and, like take down the building that link is currently in and drop a building on it. Link just had that fury attack. If he just had a trump card, a super powerful attack, then he would have a better chance. But it's that that's Nigel Negligible than it's going. It's just a bad war of attrition. Ironman moves on. We have our epic eights. We have our eight final fighters. All set. We have coming out of the Eastern bracket. We have the number one seat sore from Kingdom Hearts going up against the number two seed monkey D Luffy from the one piece universe from the Western bracket. We have the number two seed hanging from the last airbender going up against Cats key. Baku, go! The five seed from the my hero Academia universe. We have the two seed Aqua Man from the D C Extended universe going up against the five seed tough Bei Fong from the Last Airbender universe. And now the South ISS set. We have the number one seed Wonder Woman from the D. C. Universe going up against the two seed Ironman from the Marvel cinematic universe. This is exciting. We have a pretty to two of the brackets are the one versus two. But the other two brackets are to be five. Yeah. Yeah. So we have 25 seeds. We have all 42 seeds in the fight in the final AIDS. What do you know? Yeah. So we're gonna be discussing those four matchups over the next four weeks, and then we're gonna be in the semi finals and then the finals there, right here, folks, we're getting down to it Will be champion off the universe for season one. 32 seasons will have the ultimate Yeah, way we're getting down to it. We hope you're excited because we are plenty excited to be able to discuss these upcoming matchups. Other than that, I think we're all set to go. One less note before we sign off. Now, right now is really the perfect time to to let a friend know about this show because we mentioned last time and I really wanna hammered this point home that the way this show grows and the way that we continue to be able to do what we do is by increasing the amount of people that listen to it because the more people that listen, the more people that interact with us, the better the show be.
