Starting point is 00:00:00 Hello, fellow gamers. Welcome to another episode of the video gamers podcast. We are three dads who love gaming and we are so excited to have another bonus round for you all. I am your host, Paul. And joining me, he's getting ready to execute the throat rip from Roadhouse with Patrick Swayze. It's Josh. Dude, is that not one of the greatest moments? moments in like movie history.
Starting point is 00:00:32 Absolutely. Have you seen the remake? I haven't seen the remake because I don't, there's no way the remake's going to compare to the original. I heard it's not bad, but yeah, it won't be the same. Yeah. Plus, uh, Sam, uh, what's the, what's the old dude's name? Oh, uh, Sam Elliott.
Starting point is 00:00:45 Elliot from the first one. He was awesome too, man. Yeah, he is great. Not a great ending for Sam Elliott in that movie. That's true. That's okay. I legitimately looked to see if Patrick Swayze was in a video game so I could try to draft him today.
Starting point is 00:00:59 Oh, that's so funny. Right now. Okay. All right. And then joining Josh and me, he sees a bar fight breaking out. So it's time to hit the jukebox. Rolling Stone Street Fighting Man, G7. Only problem is he just pressed G8.
Starting point is 00:01:15 It's Ryan. If you like Kinga Coladas, getting caught in the rain. If you're not into yoga. Oh, that's me. I would do. that. Oh, do you like Peña Coladas, Ryan?
Starting point is 00:01:33 I'm getting caught in the rain. That is, quite honestly, the best song to fight to. And the best, best bar fight in movie history, uh, dirty work for, for my pick. Norm McDonald, just getting tossed straight out the window. All right. So for our listeners out there, today we are going to be doing a little bit of a twist on what we normally do for a draft in a bonus round episode. We're going to get into all the details of the rules.
Starting point is 00:02:00 and what we're doing. We're talking bar fights because we're going to be drafting teams that are going to get into a giant bar fight brawl. But before we get into that, Josh, I think you're going to read a show review for us. I do have. I actually have a couple, but I want to get to this draft, man, because this is going to be a lot of fun. So I'm just going to read one today. But this is your reminder that if you've been listening to the show and you like what you're hearing and you want to help out, please take the time to leave us a review. If you're on Spotify, you can rate us five stars. If you're on Apple, you can actually write a written review, and we like to read them on the show, like this one that comes in from Super Dave, 1966, and it's titled Gamer Dads, Come Together.
Starting point is 00:02:41 And it says, I discovered this podcast less than a month ago and have been binge listening for several weeks. These guys are awesome and fun, very informative on many games. I'm an old school gamer in my 50s, and I've been gaming since the OG Atari days. I love hearing about games I've never played or heard of. It makes me want to check them all out. Keep up the awesome work you guys are doing. I look forward to every new episode. P.S. for Super Earth! Yeah! Oh, Ryan's so excited. Any Hell Divers reference. I, too. I may not be in my 50s, but I too was gaming on the OG Atari back in the day. So me and Super Dave 1966 are
Starting point is 00:03:24 gaming bros. I'm assuming that's probably a Super Dave TV. show reference. I would think so. Did you watch Super Dave, Josh? I've seen it. Oh, you know, I wouldn't say I was like, you know, a like consistent watcher of it, but I've definitely seen it. Oh, yeah. Shout out to what's his name, Bob Einstein, I think. What a, what a funny dude. Love him on curb, curve also. Oh, yeah. All right. And then Ryan, why don't you tell the people a little bit about how they can support us on Patreon? Yeah, definitely. Um, you know, we, uh, we like to think that, uh, we work pretty hard on this. And, you know, we like to give a good quality content and stuff for you guys to listen to, in-depth reviews on the games,
Starting point is 00:04:02 fun, crazy episodes like this where we're going to draft a video game bar fight. So if you've enjoyed what we do for you guys, maybe consider doing something for us, multiplayer squad.com. Shoot over there. You can start as low as five bucks a month. Just really helps us out. Give us a little bit of support and keep this train rolling. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:04:23 And so let's go ahead and jump into our actual draft here. We want to give a shout out to Discord user Morgau, who is super active. He is always hopping in posting ideas for bonus rounds. And I even made a joke a few months ago that I said, man, so many great ideas. If only we ever get to a bonus round, maybe we'll use some. Today's the day. We're finally here, Morgow. We finally get to use your idea.
Starting point is 00:04:48 He had posted, what if you guys drafted teams of characters that end up in a bar fight and then see which team ends up. coming out on top at the end. And he gave a couple ideas of possible twists. And I really loved the idea where he said, maybe you guys can assign each other a special theme. For example, maybe Josh has to draft a team of all female characters or all aliens or something like that. And that way it kind of leads your draft. Maybe it gets us a chance to draft some characters we normally don't talk about or cover on our show. I thought that was a great idea. So we have all assigned each other a theme, but we have not shared it with the whole group. So, for example,
Starting point is 00:05:32 I gave a theme to Josh. Ryan has no idea what it is. I have no idea what theme Josh assigned Ryan, you know, and so this will be a lot of fun as we find out. And then we're going to jump into our draft. We do four rounds, snake style, so we each end up with four characters. And then we're just going to plop them into a March Madness bracket. We're going to start matching them up one v1, see who gets eliminated. We'll also talk a little bit about, like, who might have been gassed in the prior round versus another character. So maybe that one character would normally win, but if they just got out of a hard fight, maybe they'll actually lose. And I think this is going to be a lot of fun to cover. I'd love doing drafts like this. How about you guys? Oh, absolutely,
Starting point is 00:06:14 man. Chaos, giant barbrawl. Now, I will say that we did have to impose a few rules, or maybe just one rule on this, is it like, The character has to be able to fit into the bar. And so there are certain characters that just would not make sense to be chilling in a bar when a bar fight breaks out. So in that case, we have said, hey, we're trying to keep this as like, this sounds dumb to say, as realistic as a video game character bar brawl can be. Yes. When Mario gets in a bar fight, we have to keep it realistic.
Starting point is 00:06:51 Yeah. And also you left out another important rule. is it's a fist fight. So no magical powers, no use of the force. We're not going to put Darth Vader and Yoda out here and they're going to win. No weapons. No weapons. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:06 This is purely fistfight. You can maybe grab a beer bottle or an ashtray or something. I guess you probably don't have ashtrays in bars anymore, at least in America. But yeah, I think this is going to be a lot of fun. We randomized the draft order. I don't know that we're going to have a whole lot of overlap draft order. may not even matter because we have our different themes, but the order is going to go, Ryan, Josh, then me, and then in round two, me, Josh, Ryan, and then we'll do that over four
Starting point is 00:07:33 rounds. Let's talk about the themes that we've assigned to one another. I assigned a theme to Josh, and the theme that I gave Josh, I thought was very fitting. I thought Josh would enjoy this. What's fitting mean on this one, Paul? Wait a minute. Wait a minute. Very fitting. Come on That was your aim on this one. All bald characters. No, I'm just joking. That wasn't it. But I did think about it.
Starting point is 00:08:01 I was like, that's a very limited list. No, I didn't want to handicap Josh too much. I gave him all villains. So no protagonist for Josh. Hey, man. Number one, most villains are pretty strong. Yes. And so I kind of like this in the idea of a bar brawl because I was like instantly like,
Starting point is 00:08:20 oh, man, there's a few that I can. think of, to be fair, I had Glados on my list. And then I had to look up how big Glados actually was. And Gladys will not fit into a bar, guys. So I unfortunately... And if she's in the potato, it won't. Exactly. I did think about the potato glados too, but then I was like, this isn't going to be helpful either. So, you know, so I did unfortunately have to take Glados off of my list. But I liked this category, Paul, because it really gives me, I mean, some powerful, some powerful people to go through. Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 00:08:55 That's what I was thinking. And I feel like in our drafts, villains are sometimes underrepresented, because you initially just think of protagonists. So I thought that would be fun. All right. And then Josh, what theme did you assign Ryan? For Ryan, I actually went with the theme of, it has to be a video game companion. Oh.
Starting point is 00:09:16 So any sort of companion in a video game. So cannot be a villain, cannot be the protagonist. It has to be a companion in this case. Ooh, okay. So like if Claptrap is in the middle of the spar fight. Yeah, dog meat maybe, you know, I mean, so there's a lot of video game companions out there. So I felt like I gave Ryan a pretty big pool to, uh, to draw from. But he's definitely going to have to get a little creative too.
Starting point is 00:09:40 Yeah, that's for sure. You would not imagine how many companions I, uh, skimmed through the last. There's a lot. Yeah. And then Ryan, what theme? did you assign me? So I, man, I had, I don't have the most focused mind
Starting point is 00:09:55 in trying to pick one from all the options was very hard for Paul, but, or for me to do for Paul. And so what I went with is characters in video games that don't speak.
Starting point is 00:10:08 Oh! Characters that do not talk. Do not talk. Do not speak, yep. Wow. Oh, that's a tough one, man. Silent Fury. I mean, but you got to watch
Starting point is 00:10:19 out for the quiet ones, too. Paul was very sad. He did, now I know why he said it, because he did tell me, he's like, oh, man, what the heck, dude? He's like, I went so easy on Josh. I did say, I said I went a lot easier on Josh. I was thinking, usually if a character is silent, they're usually not, like, over the top powerful.
Starting point is 00:10:38 So I was trying to start to get creative. And that's when I started asking you guys, point of clarification, are we going to say that, like, animals are allowed? Yeah. And initially, we said. sure. And then I was thinking, well, then I'm just going to draft stuff like the griffin from the Witcher 3. Like, who's going to be able to fist fight a griffin? But that, like, kind of betrays the whole idea of this. So we said, got to fit within a door. It is okay to draft
Starting point is 00:11:05 animals or aliens as long as they are small enough to fit in a normal door, right? All right. Well, should we just jump right in here? Oh, man. I'm excited about this one, guys. Let's do it. You know, it all starts just fun. Just somebody playing darts, you know, ordering a drink before somebody just says the wrong thing or spills their drink on somebody and all of a sudden chaos erupts. Hits on the wrong girl at the bar, whatever, whatever it might be. All right, Ryan, you get to lead us off. For listeners who have never heard us do a draft, we do a selection.
Starting point is 00:11:38 Sometimes we throw out a couple initial thoughts and then we'll jump into where we match everyone up 1V1. All right, Ryan, hit us with our first selection. Who's going to be our first companion? Taken off the board. Your first companion is someone that should actually be just a main character. I wanted to start off with a bang and just go with an absolute powerhouse of a man. And I'm going with Jackie Wells, CyberPy.
Starting point is 00:12:05 Oh, that's a great choice, man. My boy Jackie. Dang it. That's such a good pick. He's got to be pushing like 280, just solid mass. And this dude's growing up, you know, in just the city with, he's fighting all the time. got cybernetics like he doesn't need guns he doesn't need weapons he's just going to use those two big bricks cinder blocks on his hands he's got some meaty fist too dude that's it's uh yeah so i'm
Starting point is 00:12:29 going with jacky don't don't they get into a bar fight in the in the montage too so this is not his first rodeo either v goes into the bathroom and spits out a tooth that's right and then they just go right back to fighting yeah that's great that's a great jack ryan yeah jackie is no stranger to bar fights that's for sure he's a seasoned fighter i will say i was a little worried for you ryan when i heard that theme because i had no idea what was selected for you but that is a great companion to kick things off it was it was a lot of work but i found some good ones also i feel i love jacky dude i don't want to like i don't want to i don't want him to lose yeah i don't want to throw somebody out of him and be like get beat up jacky good luck yeah yeah at least he can carry
Starting point is 00:13:11 himself all right josh hit us with our first villain who you taken well I don't know if you boys have been paying attention to social media. But the other day, I posted one of the, one of the hardest bosses in a video game. One of the, one of the hardest villains to beat in any game ever. And that is Mike Tyson from Punch Out. Okay, okay, okay.
Starting point is 00:13:39 The main boss himself, I figured if this is a bar fight, I need somebody that's got some punching power. And man, if you ever played Punch Out, this is one of the greatest villains ever because this guy was impossible to beat. Also, I did beat him back in the day, which was one of my better gaming moments. But yeah, I'm going with all Mike Tyson from Punch Out. He's going to kick your butt. You better back off me, Brian. That's an excellent choice, God. Guard your ears, fellas. By the way, who can't wait to watch Tyson box Jake Paul? I can't wait to watch.
Starting point is 00:14:16 I normally don't get into those, but this one I'm actually into, man. We're all rooting for Tyson. Oh, absolutely. He's going to murder him, man. It's a kid. This is a family show, but I hope he punches a hole through his head. Yeah. The only thing is, the age difference.
Starting point is 00:14:31 What is the age difference between the two of them? Tyson's 57. Yeah. Yeah, he's still a beast, though, man. Jake Paul, I don't know. Your power's the last thing to go. All he's got to do is one good liver shot or a good, that Tyson uppercut. Oh.
Starting point is 00:14:44 Jake Paul is 27, dude. He's, Tyson has 30 years on him, man. I don't know. There's something to be said for youth. Tyson, he still got it. Yeah, I hope so. All right. Okay, great pick.
Starting point is 00:14:57 I, I wondered if anyone was going to go like the boxing route. Oh, yeah. This is very ironic, Josh, because, uh, I'm drafting Little Mac. Whoa. He doesn't talk. Really? He doesn't talk and guess he defeats Mike Tyson. This is like the kryptonite to Mike Tyson.
Starting point is 00:15:15 Oh, no. This is kind of like drafting a one-trick pony. I don't know how well he will do against others, but if Little Mac faces Mike Tyson later, I kind of like my chances with Lil Mac. Let me clue you into something, though. As Little Mac, I got obliterated about 5,000 times by Mike Tyson.
Starting point is 00:15:35 This is like the Doctor Strange moment where he's like, I've seen 4,332,000 alternate timelines. All you need is one. Yeah. So you're telling me there's a chance. All right. Yeah, I'll take Little Mac there.
Starting point is 00:15:51 Nice. Great and punch out. Great in Smash Brothers. You know, got to love Little Mac. Not a Smash Bros guy, but I actually did like Little Mac in Smash Bros. Nice.
Starting point is 00:16:01 Yeah. Yeah, he's great. He's my favorite character in Smash Bros. And then starting out with round two, since I get to lead that one off. I, um, only because there's the slightest bit of overlap with
Starting point is 00:16:15 Josh, I don't know if he would draft this or not, but I'm just going to do it here. Give me the xenomorph from pick whatever alien video game you want. Fist fighting a xenomorph sounds terrifying to me. It does. However, it's better than like shanking them with a knife because once there's no blood. If you just sock them in the jaw, you know, like they're not going to spray acid blood everywhere. But, you know, you shiv a xenomor. man, now you're in trouble.
Starting point is 00:16:47 Yeah. They got agility and speed. So I liked xenomorph and I thought maybe Josh would take it as a villain. So why not kind of reach and take xenomorph here? All right. Coming back around to you, Josh, your second pick. Oh boy. Well, this is where we're already getting into these people with powers.
Starting point is 00:17:05 I mean, Mike Tyson's got some punching power. But let's be honest, he's still a human. To battle a xenomorph, I need somebody that can, you know, Ellen Ripley that can control aliens and maybe alien swarms that can control
Starting point is 00:17:21 a zirg if you will and so I am taking the villain Kerrigan Queen of Blades from Starcraft Love Kerrigan
Starting point is 00:17:34 Yeah I mean good luck dealing with those razor bone wing things and you know her psionic powers because she was what's the
Starting point is 00:17:43 what were like a ghost right? Isn't that what they called them in Starcraft? The people with the psionic powers, I'm pretty sure it was ghost. I don't remember. Yeah. So, you know, she's got psionic power. I know we're saying you can't use powers. She doesn't get to use them. Well, but she has them. You know, it's intimidating. So yeah, going with the Queen of Blades. Okay. Love StarCraft. Love Kerrigan. What a, Kerrigan is a really underrated villain that I feel like a lot of people
Starting point is 00:18:06 don't initially think about when you're thinking best villains, but what a good pick. All right. Ryan, coming back to you. You get back to back picks, buddy. very nice so since i'm all the sudden facing a xenomorph i am going to do the same thing that i would do in sky room and sacrifice my companion uh lydia your favorite nord warrior i'm sorry you're gonna you're gonna die to uh the xenomorph lady which one is she reminds when you when you first run in and you uh i think it's white run she's uh the companion that helps you she's like you're kind of your Oh, that kind of greets you when you get in a white run? Okay.
Starting point is 00:18:47 It's a bit a while since I played Skyrim. The name sounded familiar, but I couldn't remember where she was at in the game. Well, and so wait, you're just saying she's going to get sacrificed? She doesn't stand a chance? No, she's not. She's just fodder. Throwing somebody against, you know, as a distraction, is a viable tactic in a bar fight. There you go.
Starting point is 00:19:07 She's got good, good defense probably has the shield. So take a little bit of energy out of the xenomorph, you know. okay so so maybe lose one battle to win the war is this what I'm hearing okay it's all about strategy goes Ryan might be a little more conniving in this draft than I realized well you I'm working with companions here
Starting point is 00:19:28 yeah yeah when's not going to the companion cube to toad portal that's an easy way man I did look at that one yeah companion cube all right well let's go ahead and take our first break and then we'll come back all right continuing with our draft ryan first selection of round three your third overall pick
Starting point is 00:19:51 who's our next companion well let's come out with another just opi too strong for their own good character we're going with someone who you may think is a main character in all the games they've been in but not always metal gear solid two solid snake comes back as pliss and he is the companion slash a helper of Riden and like I said, Mail Gear Solid 2. So CQC master, war hero, everything you could ever want in a soldier. He doesn't need weapons. He'll just snap the guy's necks going with Solid Snake.
Starting point is 00:20:33 Pliskin. All right. Sure. Right. What the heck is a Pliskin anyway? Well, we all know Metal Gear lore is so easy to follow. That's, well, Pliskin was, that was his fake name when he came back to help Riding. But then he copped up to that he was Snake later on.
Starting point is 00:20:48 But they did fight and Snake just like took out everybody. Okay. I like it. It wouldn't be a draft if Ryan didn't take something from Metal Gear. So I like it. All right, Josh, your pick. Well, I need somebody strong, somebody that's trained in combat. You know, somebody that's so cool that maybe they wear their sunglasses inside at night.
Starting point is 00:21:13 and that is a gentleman by the name of Albert Wesker from the Resident Evil series. Okay. Starts off, starts off, you know, just as a normal human. But by the time you get to, you know, Resident Evil 5 or whatever it is, this guy is superhuman. The only way you could kill him was to throw him in a volcano. As one does. Yeah, you know, because that's what you have to do with the really strong villains. So Albert Wesker from Resident Evil, superhuman.
Starting point is 00:21:43 strength, all kinds of abilities. I get that maybe he can't use any, you know, the psionic stuff, but you can't take the strength away from somebody. And he's going to look cool while fighting. Yeah, he's got a sunglasses on. He kind of looks a little bit like Schwarzenegger from Terminator 2 with the glasses and and the hair. Yeah, and he's a little bit.
Starting point is 00:22:02 He's tough, man. This guy is no joke either. Very true. I like it. All right. Coming back around to me, back to back, my last two picks. I've already got Little Mac and a xenomorph. Next pick, I am going to go Doom Guy.
Starting point is 00:22:19 I think Doom Guy is the first thing that came to mind for me of a character that does not talk, but has a lot of power. I feel like it's hard to go wrong. So I'm going to go ahead and take Doom Guy. Now, does he say Rip and tear? Or is that just like his motto? I think it's just his motto. I don't remember him saying it in a game. I'm inclined to believe that he doesn't speak.
Starting point is 00:22:40 I looked it up. I think on later ones, he may have said a couple things, but it says he rarely speaks on screen. So I think that fits the bill. Yeah. All right. He's certainly gone through several games of not speaking. So most of the games, he does not speak. Yeah. Although he does speak in Dune Eternal as well. But I think, I think it fits the spirit of the draft, even though I don't really want to fight Doom Guy. All right. All right. So we'll lock in Doom Guy. And then with my last pick here, I, boy, I don't even know, guys. This is the hard one. Like, who am I going to take? I'm not going to take, like, Gordon Freeman. He's no good in a bar fight like this. I was also thinking, you know, Claude from GTA3. I love him.
Starting point is 00:23:30 He's not going to do that well in a fight here. So, I don't know. I'm going to go a little bit. Okay. You know what? Ace of Shame's been posting a lot about Bloodbourne. I'm just going to take the hunter from Bloodbourne. I know he doesn't get any of the
Starting point is 00:23:45 weapons, but this is a dude who's seen a lot and he's fought a lot. He's not going to be scared. He's not going to back down. And we all know he's going to be able to roll out of any punches. Mike Tyson might throw his way. So I'm going to take the Hunter. If only I'd ever played Bloodborn.
Starting point is 00:24:02 Wait, come on. Bring Bloodborn to PC, by the way. Come on, man. It's a crime. It does not exactly. It really is. I know there's got to be a reason for it, but whatever that reason is is stupid because I want to play it. Yeah. And I, I'm not a soul's guy. I did not love Bloodbourne, but I did play it on PlayStation. And man, it would, it would do crazy if it got put into PC. Oh, for sure. All right. Josh, coming back around to you, your last pick of the draft.
Starting point is 00:24:30 And this is my last one. Man, I've got, I've got, see, this is where you guys know I like bending the rules, but I actually had to look. I had to look this one up. to. I was going to pick Diablo, but if you had to guess how tall Diablo is, how big do you think Diablo is? Nine feet tall. 12. Well, nine feet would fit in a bar. He's 14 feet tall. 14 feet tall. Yeah. And that's what I was, I know. So that's when I was like, dang it. I was like, he was like number one on my list. And then I was like, no, they'll never go for it. But you know what? That's like two shacks on top of each other. That's how that's how tall. Unless this is some fancy like bar at a ski resort where it's got the huge vaulted ceilings or something. So I didn't, I didn't pick Diablo,
Starting point is 00:25:13 but I am picking a guy that knows how to fight. He's got four arms. He's taller than your average human. And I am picking Goro from Mortal Kombat because what's better than two fists in a bar fight? Four fists in a bar fight. You know, I will say when I got characters that can't talk, I initially thought, like, oh, I'm going to grab, like, some guys from Mortal Kombat or whatever, but a lot of them will either have a voice line or they talk in the movies. And I was like, when I saw Goro, I immediately thought, I hope Josh doesn't think of Goro, because I think that's a great pick. Oh, yeah. Okay, got Goro in here. All right, Ryan, last pick of the draft.
Starting point is 00:25:57 Who are you going to take? This is a tough one. Wait, this is my last pick? Yeah, this is your last pick. Oh, that is because I went back to back. You're right. yep um well let's go with someone who has a lot of youth and vigor will uh last the endurance test versus a lot of these characters um oh you know what actually i'm gonna switch
Starting point is 00:26:26 on the fly and i'm gonna actually ask a question is grute a companion does that qualify no he's I get what you're saying because Rocket rides Groot and stuff, but Groot is one of the... Is his own character? Well, he is a Guardian of the Galaxy. Yeah. So I wouldn't consider him a companion. I just thought you guys were talking about. But that's also a great pick.
Starting point is 00:26:48 Yeah, I know. I'm thinking about these big guys, but... Okay, no worries. So I'm going to go with Atreus. Oh, okay. Half God, half giant. You got the youth. Super annoying.
Starting point is 00:27:00 He's going to be the first one knocked out, man. He's just going to talk like crazy to him all. God business. We're on God business. Did not get carded, apparently, at the door to this bar. Yeah. I mean, let's go on. So they let him drink mead back in the day.
Starting point is 00:27:15 Yeah. Yeah. Oh, gosh, Atreus. Can't wait to see him die. I can't stand atreus. All right. Let's go ahead and sum up our teams here. Ryan, you are coming in with Jackie Wells, Lydia, Solid Snake, and...
Starting point is 00:27:32 Atreus. Atreus. There you go. Josh, you've got Mike Tyson, Carrigan, Albert Wesker, and Goro. I've got Little Mac, a xenomorph, Doom Guy, and The Hunter. How are you guys feeling about your teams? I like my team. Nat good.
Starting point is 00:27:50 I'm a little worried about two people on Paul's team, but nobody else. What, solid snake, dude? I mean... He's going to pop out of a cardboard box. He's kind of old, you know. Sucker shot someone. No, this is prime. Metal Gear Solid 2 Solid Snake.
Starting point is 00:28:08 The best there ever was. All right. They don't agree. They don't agree. Don't make fun of me, guys. What was Ryan's last pick? I know. Atreus, there we go.
Starting point is 00:28:21 I didn't type it into the dock yet. That's the second time you forgot in like two minutes. I know, I know. I just needed to put it in the dock. I was trying to listen to you guys and then I forgot. All right, all right. Atreus is in the spreadsheet. We won't forget again.
Starting point is 00:28:34 Don't worry. He's getting knocked out of this real early. No way. I do think Josh's team is looking pretty solid. I like my team a lot, too. Ryan, I'm not going to lie. I think you're hurting, bud. Yeah. Josh got villains.
Starting point is 00:28:49 Hey, man, you could have picked a clap trap. How are you going to punch clap trap? Should have went with Cogsworth from Fallout. There you go. All right. Let's start matching. Oh, man. Ryan, this is looking real.
Starting point is 00:29:04 for you because our first matchup is Jackie Wells versus Goro. Oh no. Oh no. Oh no, not Jackie. That's a good fight. What do you mean? Not Jackie.
Starting point is 00:29:18 Ryan, can you make a case for Jackie? He's got big legs. Yeah. And he's funny. It's pretty cool. And I don't know. Can Goro get his arms around? Jackie, just squash him?
Starting point is 00:29:36 I think so. I mean, Jackie could use his charisma to try to get on Goro's good side. Yeah. Before he blindsides him with like a beer bottle over the head or something, maybe. This is true. You're arguing against your guy. Yeah, because I know I'm really trying to help you here because this is, I like Jackie, man. Jackie is one of my good ones.
Starting point is 00:29:56 That's luck of the draw there. Yeah. I think, unfortunately, this is going to be a first seed exit. for a character. I'll tell you what, just to make it more fair, Goro is going to only fight with three hands and he's drinking a beer with his other hand the whole time he's fighting Jackie. I don't think it'll matter. I think I would still pick Goro. I was going to make a joke that after the fight, let's just say Jackie took off one of Goro's arms. Oh, okay. All right. So Jackie Luscious. But, yeah, Goro's down to three. I like, I don't think Goro would just steamroll him by
Starting point is 00:30:31 any means. So we do have to remember that for the later rounds, though. Goral's going to be a little war out. Okay. How did I lose a limb? Did he just break it? Jackie, like, you know, did like the elbow down into the Gero fell back onto the table and then Jackie came down on the side
Starting point is 00:30:47 and went, whiz-ah! Okay. Flying elbow drop? Yeah. And it's and it's his top arm. You can pitch which, pick which side. So it's just kind of dangling there. So it does inhibit his other arm too. No, no, no, no. This is his, no, no. nice try. What if he got like shanked with a glass bottle in the arm? That makes a little bit
Starting point is 00:31:06 more sense. Sure. Whatever. Jackie said, though. It's going to hurt. He's not going to punch with it. All right. So Goro's down an arm. Yeah, Goro, Goro, weekend Goro. I still got three more. When you've got four arms, they are expendable. All right. Round one, matchup two. We've got Mike Tyson versus the hunter from Bloodborn. Dude, if you miss one dodge, you knocked out. I know because, like, you guys, did you guys ever play punch out? Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:39 Did you make it to Tyson? Do you remember when he, like, he does like the, the uppercut fury and it like blinks for a half second? And if you miss that dodge, like, away from that side, instant knockout, like just instantly. And then I can't remember. Do you have to replay the whole game again to get back to him? They, it was back in the day when you would get codes. So if you beat like Flamenco or whatever that character was, it would give you a code that you could enter and it would put you back in that round.
Starting point is 00:32:06 So you didn't have to restart, but there were, of course, no save files. Right. This is back on, you know, N.E.S. Right. Right. So, I mean, I get that you need to dodge a lot, but one, one misdodge. And it's over. And how many punches would the hunter need to get on Tyson to, like, take Tyson out? A lot, probably. I don't know. See, I don't know a ton about the hunter, man.
Starting point is 00:32:30 I mean, I get if he had weapons and stuff, but I don't know, like, how strong this guy is. If Buster Douglas could knock him out, the hunter could. Oh, what Buster Douglas, come on. Now, yeah, and plus, you drafted, like, peak Mike Tyson from a punchout. And just remember, when things start going south for Tyson, he will go for an ear. It is true. Yeah, so there is that weapon, too. He will bite.
Starting point is 00:32:54 Yeah, absolutely. So. All right. So I think we all agree. Mike Tyson's making it out of this fight probably relatively easily. Hunter missed one dodge roll and just cabam. All right. I'm realizing maybe I went too easy on Josh giving them villains. I'm not feeling too good. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:12 All right. Round one, match three. We got our two youngest fighters going up against each other. We've got Little Mac versus Atreus. Oh, Atreus will win one at least. That's good. Willie? Come on. I mean, I like Little Mac, but I do kind of side with Ryan on this one. No way. That's insane.
Starting point is 00:33:34 In a fight, a trained fighter versus a teenager. He's half God, half giant. I mean, he fights a lot of monsters. He doesn't have powers, though. He doesn't need to. He's fistfighting. He's fistfighting a trained fighter. Atreus is pretty acrobatic.
Starting point is 00:33:48 I mean, he's doing flips. He can jump and new cartwheels. Now, he doesn't have his bow and arrow. So that is, that is the question. Give him a bow staff. Like a pool stick? Because there would be a pull stick at a bar. Pull stick, because he just, like, he uses his bow.
Starting point is 00:34:00 He uses his bow as like a bow staff to hit. So this is the dumbest thing I've ever heard. Ryan, you went so much into a trained fighter can take on, according to you, an unlimited number of people and will win that fight. This is a bar fight with a trained boxer. No, he's a professional boxer. Boxing is different than fighting. Okay, fair enough.
Starting point is 00:34:24 So, and it is a fist fight. And boxers last time I checked, one leg sweep from Atreus and Little Mac is down on the ground. No, and that's just easier for Little Mac to get up and uppercut them. Come on. There's no world where Atreus wins a fist fight against Little Mac. What are you talking about?
Starting point is 00:34:41 I don't, what makes Little Mac strong? Like, what makes him, like he's a squad. Yeah, but he, that's like,
Starting point is 00:34:49 in punchout. I mean, after 5,000 attempts. But like, Little Mac can lose to glass jaw Joe. And, the first round if you're not careful all right well i mean you guys get to vote ryan sounds like you're voting atreus i i get it paul i get it but i feel like a half god teenager
Starting point is 00:35:08 is probably going to be able to take a hit more than little mac ken of course he can he has no powers but he still has like his you know regular ability like he's half giant too like the stuff that he gets hit with i don't really want atreus moving on though either for the record, this, this is the biggest travesty if Atreus beats Little Mac in the history of our drafts. No way. I don't know. But how strong do you think Little Mac is? I think if you do a poll, are you going like, I'm thinking 85% vote where he can take on anybody, like he's fighting Charazard or whoever? Because like that's a different story than just like some little scrawny boxer guy in a video game that's like taking on King Hippo, you know, and losing them.
Starting point is 00:35:56 most of the time. I mean, I play punch out. You lose so often. Oh, goodness. All right. Are you voting at Traus, Josh? I am going to vote at Traus. I can't, I can't a good conscience pick. This is so stupid. I just don't know what vision of Little Mac Paul has in his head. What? He, he is a trained fighter, and we're drafting fighters to fight in a fight the last time I checked. Kratos trains him how to fight. He's, he's trained to shoot a bow. I mean, he does a lot of brawling, man. Okay. And he's Spartan rages. But of course, he passes out when he does that because he's kind of lame. But, yeah, the kid who falls over a sleep for three days after every fight.
Starting point is 00:36:38 Like, put the xenomorph against a trace. This is, this is so dumb. All right, round one, match for xenomorph versus Albert Wesker, who I will be honest. I did not even remember. I had to Google it. You remember Wesker from Resident Evil? Come on me. I didn't remember once I saw him.
Starting point is 00:36:57 I just did not remember him by now. Albert Wesker has superhuman strength, superhuman speed, superhuman stamina and regeneration abilities. That's not counting the fact that he can mutate into a more powerful form in Resident Evil 5. Now, we'll say he can't mutate because that'd be using a power.
Starting point is 00:37:16 I'm not sure he gets any of those. Superhuman power is a power. What are you taking a stamina away from him? I don't even know what to think anymore in this draft. I feel like the alien would just wreck him, though. He would. I know. Those aliens are freaky, man.
Starting point is 00:37:35 Those things are so, that's like one of the best, like, movie creations ever. They're too fast to try to fist fight. They're just creepy. They crawl like spiders on the ceiling sometimes. It's got acid blood, like, drop down on them and just, I mean, I guess what is their main attack, though? Is it the little mouth thing that shoots out? I think it's the claws.
Starting point is 00:37:57 Is it the claws? They'll just tear you the shreds. Yeah. I think it's like fighting like a Wolverine times a thousand. Like that's kind of what they are. But like Wesk, I mean, okay, to be fair, like Ellen Ripley grabs the queen mother xenomorph in that suit, the loader suit. And the mother can't do anything against that.
Starting point is 00:38:15 So they're not like super strong. They're just fast. It might be one of those things where I don't know if. the mother is different than, like, the other xenomorphs. I think there's like, I think there's different kinds of xenomorphs too. But in my head, I'm just thinking, yeah, like a fast, agile, rip them to shreds with its claws. Honestly, I, anybody that's played Resident Evil hates Albert Wesker. So I'm fine if he gets his butt kicked by the xenomorph.
Starting point is 00:38:39 Not to mention, this is a full on bar brawl. I do feel like the xenomorph, he's going to get some, he's, the xenomorphs taking some damage from Wesker, though, man. This is not a pushover. So that's fair. Lose is one eye. Well, they don't have eyes, do they? Did they have eyeballs? I guess they do.
Starting point is 00:38:56 They got eyes. Yeah. Because, you know, you need to see in the darkness of space. That's the thing. If you get lucky and like get a real strong kick or like a, like a stomp on a xenomorph, you're going to do damage to it, I don't, I don't think they can take a lot of hits, but I think it's like a glass cannon. They do a lot of damage right off the bat.
Starting point is 00:39:15 Well, Wesker popped both eyeballs. So your xenomorph is now blind. blind? He's blind. All right. Got a blind xenomorph. Trying to carry my team to the finals. We'll see how that goes.
Starting point is 00:39:25 Just raging against everybody. This is just in case, Paul. The draft goes weird and, you know, xenomorph winds up fighting somebody on the other team. Zenomor just kills them all. Yeah. Okay. All right.
Starting point is 00:39:36 Round one, match five. We've got Kerrigan versus Solid Snake. Oh, good luck. Solid Snake. Going up against the Queen of Blades. Get out of here. She doesn't get the romance. She doesn't get the blades, though.
Starting point is 00:39:49 She doesn't get the blades They're part of her body She has the bone wings They're in great It's like saying she doesn't have a spine I thought she like wore him like a suit I don't remember I don't remember my StarCraft floor Wings man
Starting point is 00:40:02 Like that's part of her body Snake would be like oh Blades Yeah I don't see As much as I like I mean What is his name Pliskin
Starting point is 00:40:16 That's what he goes It's solid snake. It's just his, like, code name. Is he able to jump out of a box? Like, is he going to hide for the first, the first 30 seconds? And then he's going to hop out and take Kerrigan by surprise because then he's got a chance. I hear, all right, I, just because I think you guys might have forgotten what Kerrigan looks like as the Queen of Blades, I just, I just put a photo in our chat for you. Oh, those look dangerous. Yeah. I mean, she's, she's going to jack you up, man. gosh, she could just kick them with those heels and just stab them through the heart.
Starting point is 00:40:53 And she is wearing heels. She was out on a date. This is a bar. That's wearing heels. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. And you spilled her margarita, so she's really mad now.
Starting point is 00:41:03 Oh, no. Yeah. Who are you voting for Ryan? Yeah, I don't think Snake could take this one as much as I want them to. All right. So then we will put Carrigan through. Should we just call this now and just, just crowned Josh the winner.
Starting point is 00:41:22 All right, let's see. Last matchup in round one, and then things are going to take off pretty quick here. We have Lydia versus Doom Guy. Rip and tear until it is done. Sorry, Lydia. Yeah, I'm going to be honest. I barely remember Lydia in Skyrim.
Starting point is 00:41:39 It's hard for me to picture her taking on Doom guy. She's a Nord Warrior, dude. You would have been better with the companion cube, Ryan? at least you could have been like pick this up and throw it at him Goro Goro just punching this cube in the corner for the entire fight. Wonder why he's not winning.
Starting point is 00:41:58 It won't die. Yeah, my team sucks. Does this fully eliminate you, Ryan? No, I got Atreus. Now do you see Paul? Now do you see why? Yeah, Atreus, goodness gracious.
Starting point is 00:42:13 Okay. All right. Lydia has been murdered by Duke Guy in one punch. It wouldn't be that close though. She is a Nord warrior. Would nobody come to her defense? No. Everyone's too busy fighting someone else. Who's going to, who's going to come help her out? I don't know. Mike Tyson. I'll give you, I'll give you the bartender. The bartender and Lydia versus Doom Guy. I'm still taking Doom guy. Yeah. All right, let's go ahead and take our last break and then we'll come back and finish this tournament. All right, we're back.
Starting point is 00:42:42 Round two. We've got a total of six characters left. Oh, boy, we've got Goro, Mike Tyson, and Carrigan representing Josh. He's got half the characters remaining. Other than that, we've got Atreus by Ryan, and we've got Xenomorph and Doom Guy by me. Good news, guys, is we discussed right before recording, are we going to have any friendly fire here, or should we adjust the bracket on the fly? We agreed that friendly fire is possible. Yep. It's a bar fight. You never know what's going to happen, man. Yep.
Starting point is 00:43:18 Yeah. It's chaos. You might not even realize who you're fighting because we've got this all-out brawl. Round two, match one. We've got Goro versus Kerrigan. Oh, no. Two of Josh is against each other. Uh, uh, he needs two more arms to stop all with his own wings. Goro's hurt. And so does Kerrigan get to like, like impaled people with her. Yeah. I mean, Gora has four arms he gets to use.
Starting point is 00:43:51 Why would she not get to use her like bone wing things? She's not allowed to use her powers because Kerrigan's got all these psionic capabilities and stuff too. But I mean, that's like your alien. That's like saying your alien's not allowed to use its claws or its little shooty mouth thingy because that's its weapon. Like her weapons, they're part of her body.
Starting point is 00:44:10 So to me, I would say they're allowed. But I'm also biased. Yeah, he's pretty quick too. though he's strong so he could grab him you know when she tries to stab him he could just snap him in half yeah you know if somebody hadn't damaged one of his arms so so goro's grabbing two blades and then punching her with the third arm left is this what we're saying yeah there you go and now goro's arms are cut i feel like care from grabbing the blades like make a shield around
Starting point is 00:44:37 herself with her bone spike things let goro just wear himself out and then she just you know This is so ridiculous. Stab them with one of them. Did you see us arguing over who would win in a fight 1 v. 1, Kerrigan versus Goro? Guys, let's be honest. This is the heart of this show. Because these are the stupid things.
Starting point is 00:44:58 I don't know who would win. Like, I'm honestly kind of torn, man. I feel like Kerrigan would win because getting impaled is worse than getting pummeled. But, like, I've played world combat. Goro will straight up, like, rip people in half and rip their arms off and stuff and then beat them with it.
Starting point is 00:45:14 So it's like, What wins? Does brute strength and three arms win out over, uh, how many bone blades? She got six. So Kerrigan, it's like two, it's like two wings, but each one's got three blades. Yeah, they're tipped with razors. So my thing is, I feel like you could, you could impale Goro and I feel like he's still going to fight for like, yeah, a good 30 to 40 seconds before he's got a lot more hit points than Kerrigan is what you're saying. Yeah, I could see this. Exactly. I mean, I wish I had a video.
Starting point is 00:45:45 It just did the best Goro pressure. The perfect Goro. I, my gut reaction was Goro. So I'm going to vote Goro, but I think it's a very close. Ryan, what, what's your take on this one, Ryan? I think, like you guys said, I think he can take some punishment. Those, those blades are going to do a lot of damage, and there's six of them.
Starting point is 00:46:06 My thought is, Kerrigan wins, but she loses three of her blades. Oh, so one of her wins. wings gets crippled. Yeah, one of her wings gets jacked up. I feel like Goro could maybe snap one. And he's like, and then she just stabs him too many times with the other one. He's like,
Starting point is 00:46:23 I think I'm going with Ryan on this one, man. Because getting impaled by bone-tipped razor wing thing sounds terrible. And Kerrigan's no slouch. Like, she's, she's an athlete, man. She was an elite, like, trained commando before she went bad, too. So I feel like she knows how to handle herself. She's got those razors on her forearms, too.
Starting point is 00:46:45 yeah that's true all right so all right i'm going to side with ryan on this one i'm going to say carrigan would win but she ain't coming out of that on she's down to one wing down to one wing one wing with three blades all right that's fair so we've got we've got a one winged carrying it a blind xenomorph a stupid annoying half god kid what is happening here best draft ever atreus man i just i just hate him even more now i atreus now all time most hated character by me. I love it. All right, let's see.
Starting point is 00:47:17 Round two, match two. We've got Mike Tyson in his prime versus a blind xenomorph. Oh, man. Okay, Xenomorph is blind. Tyson's, you know, he was back in his day and his prime. He was smooth. He could probably move around without making a lot of noise, man. Very true.
Starting point is 00:47:37 And if the xenomorph leaps at him, I feel like he can dodge it pretty easily. If my xenomorph doesn't even know where Tyson is, I'm going to vote for Tyson. Yeah. I think that's the right call. Are you guys serious? Yeah. Okay.
Starting point is 00:47:51 You take the xenomorph? A healthy xenomorph, yes, Ryan, but this xenomorph is blind now. It's blind, yeah. So? How's it going to know where Tyson's at? It just will swing its giant claws at everything around. And you know what? He floats like a butterfly and stings like a bee, man.
Starting point is 00:48:10 You know, he's head bobbing. I know, I know, that's Muhammad. I know. But I'm just saying, like, he's doing the little headbob thing, the alien's swinging around everywhere, and then he just uppercuts it, just boom. That would be majestic. I mean, I see it happening. Well, I'm outvoted anyways.
Starting point is 00:48:27 I think the xenomorph, but you guys go with Tyson. You might have won me over, Ryan. I don't know. I just Googled xenomorph height. They're a little taller than I realized. How tall are they? Seven to eight feet tall. And they're 14 to 16 feet long going from head to end of tail.
Starting point is 00:48:42 Yeah, I mean, you're counting the tail. which is, you know, they'd fit in a bar. So how many punches does Tyson need against a xenomorph? He'd go for the body, body blows, dude. Body blow, body blow. He's got to hit it like 10 times, right? The second he goes before. He's going to be too close.
Starting point is 00:48:57 It's going to be too close and then just clamp. All right, but this alien's, it's taken more damage, man. I think he uppercuts it in the face and it pops off. It bites through its own little jaw thing. The jaw's gone. Yeah, it's like biting your tongue. Yeah. All right.
Starting point is 00:49:13 Yeah. upon now that I realized how long they are, Tyson's going to have to be within arm's length of the xenomorph. It's going to take them out. I just heard Tyson going like, What the heck is this thing? Oh my God. That's the worst white Tyson impression ever.
Starting point is 00:49:34 Oh, man. Oh, I love it. All right. Zenomorph will take that one, but he's now, he's now, he's now, he's hurting. I would like to say that, you know, the doom slayer against Lydia didn't none of us thought that maybe she even got a lick in on him like he's just fully healthy yeah
Starting point is 00:49:53 we got a fully healthy dude he's hating on Lydia for man geez louise she's still a soldier I'm drafting my neighbor Lydia to fight all right a final match of round two we've got Atreus versus doom guy and according to you guys Lil Mac didn't even put a scratch on Atreus so they're both fully healthy Atreus versus You could annoy Doom Guy to death to where Doom Guy would just go
Starting point is 00:50:25 Oh no more But maybe he'd take himself out Would he rage Would Doom guy get so aggravated That he kind of loses his cool At this point and goes into like a blind rage That could be Just starts throwing tables at Atreus
Starting point is 00:50:42 Yeah. I mean, Atreus is going down. What's the just most spectacular fashion? Just puts him in the corner. Does he put him in time out? I mean, let's be honest. There's no way Atreus is doing anything here. No, not, no, you, what are you talking about? Not doing anything. I guess Doom guy. He's half, he's half God. I don't care. Doom guy is, is half, like, don't mess with me, guy. Oh, yeah. Yeah. He rips. He faces the entire demon hoard, man. With guns. I mean, he rips.
Starting point is 00:51:19 Dude, the strongest ability is when he gets that power up and he just one punches things to, and they explode. With a power up. See, you need power ups and guns. I'm not saying a trace can win, but don't say he's not doing any damage. All right. What damage is he doing, Ryan? Choose your disability. Breaks both his legs.
Starting point is 00:51:39 Breaks both of the guy's legs. All right. He's just laying on the ground. He's just sitting in a chair now. Swinging up. Put him on a stool so he can spin around at least. On a stool? Yeah, that way he can spin around and aim at people.
Starting point is 00:51:57 Oh, goodness. All right. We're propping him up on a bar stool. However, so Doom Guy does make it through, although he has no legs. Okay. I can't feel my legs. Sure. This makes perfect sense.
Starting point is 00:52:12 All right. This means we are now down to our final three fighters. Unfortunately, Ryan, you've been eliminated. You get the bronze for this draft. You are the weakest link. Goodbye. We now are left with a one-winged Kerrigan, who still has the use of both of her legs.
Starting point is 00:52:34 Yeah. Against Doom Guy who is stuck on a bar stool swinging into the void. and my blind xenomorph, who also has been uppercut and is missing the... Missing his protruding jaw thing. Yeah, the whatever word that is. The shooty jaw. I think that's the official term for it. There you go.
Starting point is 00:52:58 Yeah. So, boy, all right, but how do you see this going down, Ryan? Let's ask you first as the impartial judge. And so this is all three? Is that what we're doing? Yeah, Kerrigan, Doom Guy, and the Xenomorph. Xenomorph is blind and missing its shooty jaw. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:53:16 Doom Guy has two broken legs. Kerrigan is missing one of her bone wings. It's definitely between xenomorph and Kerrigan. The question is, yeah, like what, I'm not sure Doom Guy is going to do anything. So is the thought Kerrigan just immediately takes out Doom Guy first? She just pushes the stool over and he's just on the ground. Oh. That's a good point.
Starting point is 00:53:41 And then he's just dragging his body and she just gives him one through the heart. So he's gone. No damage. And now it's just like they started, Xenomorph and Kerrigan. Oh, man. But that's a good battle, I think. Now, is Kerrigan so distracted taking out Doom Guy that it gives xenomorph a little bit of extra time to attack first? I would think so.
Starting point is 00:54:04 Or how does this go down? Why is Kerrigan got to beat us? Don't you think that the blind alien would go after the guy that's spinning around on a stool, making a bunch of noise? I think the intent is that they're on a team, and I know the xenomorph only has so much understanding of this, but, I mean, you could argue the xenomorph might accidentally friendly fire and hit Doom Guy anyway, but I don't think the xenomorph would intentionally go for Doom Guy.
Starting point is 00:54:32 They're on the same team. He's blind, though. He doesn't know. That's true. He is blind. Yeah. They don't just kill both. And let's be honest, aliens ain't so bright.
Starting point is 00:54:41 Okay, but now we go into... They got space travel. Wait, there's no weapons. But she has the blades. So if she uses them, then the acid comes spewing out. Man, that might melt her bones. Yeah. So maybe she's just normal carrigan after all this.
Starting point is 00:55:00 She's got one wing. I feel like... I will say, other than the claws from the alien, because he doesn't have a shooty mouth anymore. Like, claws are the only thing the alien has at this point. Well, I guess the tail, that tail, that tail can whip around. Yeah, the tail does try to impale thing. So, man, this is a tough one.
Starting point is 00:55:20 I mean, I'm going to side with Kerrigan just because one bone wing is still a bone wing. It's still an extra weapon. Yeah, with three spear tips on it. Whereas the alien has claws and a tail, but he's blind. So he's just thrash in, whereas Kerrigan can, like, time her shot. You know, she's looking, she's waiting, the tail goes whipping by. She charges in and just, you know, one bone wing straight through the alien at this point. And then the acid sprays out, and it melts her bone wings.
Starting point is 00:55:55 And then she stands there victorious. But now she's normal, and then the scene ends. Yeah. And then Rainer comes walking through the door and says, sorry, I'm late, Kerrigan. So you don't see an ending where the xenomorph just bleeds all onto Kerrigan and then Kerrigan dies and it's a nobody means or that would be a bad ending. Or Doom guy winds up winning as a floppy fish on the ground because Xenomorfer and Kerrigan take each other out. He just drags himself under the pool table.
Starting point is 00:56:26 Yeah. Because he's, yeah, I mean, I, I'm, I'm inclined to say Kerrigan's wing still gives her a lot of reach. it's an actual weapon. Also, I think, I think she's going to win against a blind. If the xenomorph is fully healthy, it's the xenomorph all day, every day. I would say, see, this is where it gets interesting because I would say if Doom guy was healthy, that he would rip that alien apart because that's what he does. He hunts. Yes, exactly.
Starting point is 00:56:55 Yeah, there's not much difference between a xenomorph and, like, demons in Doom. So, like, I feel like he would have wrecked that xenomorph, but, you know, I trios broke two of his legs. so yeah when we've got just xenomorph versus carrigan i think my xenomorph's taken too much damage i would vote carrigan this is a video game character draft like battle bar bar brawl and a xenomorph like carrigan just sounds like a better winner versus like a xenomorph yeah i i don't know that you ever actually play as a xenomorph and you're usually hiding from them yeah you don't even really see them a lot in the games. But yeah, I'm, I'm fine saying Kerrigan is the last one standing. She's pretty bad. I mean, honestly, in a bar fight, if I saw the Queen of Blades in there, I'd be like,
Starting point is 00:57:40 yes, ma'am. Can I buy you another drink? Whatever you need. Yeah. Check please. How do you guys feel to know that we're probably the only people in human history to have this conversation about? Oh, we are definitely the only ones to compare. And this is why people love listening to the show. Zenomorph. Yeah. We're solving the real problems of the world, guys. These are things people need to know.
Starting point is 00:58:04 People should be thinking about this more. Yeah. Honestly. We're bringing knowledge to the world. We're bringing awareness. Yeah. Awareness to these hot topics. Don't get into bar fights with certain things.
Starting point is 00:58:16 There's a lot of problems in this world. And this is the biggest one. Yeah. Honestly, that we should be focused on. All right. So Josh, you are coming away as the victor. I love that it's, your second round pick that carried you into the, into the finals.
Starting point is 00:58:32 Yeah. If only, uh, if, if heard Goro didn't face off against each other, it would have been a Lance like, I think it would have been, I think we would have had like a healthy care again at that point or a healthy gore or three-armed Goro, which is, you know, at least, at least it made for a semi-interesting final round. Would Goro have beaten the xenomorph? I'm a little worried because he has to be close. He has to get like, he has to get in real close fully healthy xenomorph i don't know man that's what i'm saying or are we still saying blind
Starting point is 00:59:02 and if he rips the xenomorph apart then all that acid blood is melt and goro i feel like that he would have been a lot weaker to the xenomorph to be honest if the xenomorph is blind i think goro gets to it and snaps it grabs it by the tail and then just chucks it or something or does that yeah yeah maybe swings it around and does that whole smash thing does alien acid melt through bone yes it melts through like metal you think it would melt through bone i think so don't they have the thing where it like splashes on the face but then you see the bone i don't know i guess it would melt through bone i i feel like you see it always dripping through like the ceiling and through you know what i mean if it's going through entire floors i feel like it's going to get through bone okay all right
