BeastMan14's "So pumped!" Edges

Weapons: I give this to Durge. He's got the more powerful weapons here, and he isn't (mostly) hampered by modern firearms (with ammo comstraints and little damage that can be done against Durge's armor) versus laser weapons (which have huge clip sizes and do more damage against Lobo's unarmored skin.) Edge: Durge

Powers/Abilites: Lobo is far stronger than Durge, and is a lot smarter and faster. Durge is no slouch either, he's capable of just as much when it comes to stamina and his cool arm extension trick. But what really wins it for the Main Man here is his healing factors superiority over Durge's healing factor. Lobo can take huge hits and immediately recover compared to Durge, who takes huge blows like having his arms chopped off, and be forced to regenerate over the course of a couple of seconds, leaving Lobo circular time to plan things out. Edge: Lobo

X-Factors

Pyschological Warfare: This is even, as this relies heavily on either guy being able to show fear. Which they can't. Edge: Even

Strategy: Lobo is a lot smarter than Durge, and will make far better plans. He has a history of doing this, for instance, he planed for weeks to betray the Justice Leauge from the inside, only for an alien invasion to ruin that plan. Durge very rarely has plans that aren't Attack, Attack, Attack. There's a reason Dooku appointed Grievous leader of the CIS armies and not him. Edge: Lobo

Combat Experience: Lobo has faced some of the toughest people in the galaxy (read: Superman), but Durge is 200 years old and is always fighting. Edge: Durge

Endurance: I've already explained how Lobo has the better healing factor and will be able to fight longer than Durge, who has a small boost from his armor, but Lobo's super strength should break right through it. Edge: Lobo

Intelligence: Lobo has a genius level intellect. Durge isn't stupid, but he's by no means anywhere near a genius. Much of the reasoned can defeated by the Jedi is Becuase he falls for easy traps. Edge: Lobo

Creativity: Lobo mostly acts on a warrior instinct, and doesn't need to really think of plans due to his pure strength and Abilites meaning a lack of needs for plans. Lobo is capable of realizing he can't win a straight up battle at times, and will attempt to outsmart his enemies and defeat them in creative ways. Edge: Lobo

Weapon Use: Even. They're both big weapons guys.

Brutality: Even again. Both are brutal killers and show no remorse.

Deadliest Warrior: Lobo. Despite my edges, its rather close, as Durge packs more advanced weaponry and is more experienced than Lobo. But Lobo is ultimately capable of surviving greater wounds due to his healing factor requiring just a single cell for damn near instant regeneration while Durge needs a second and hope his oppenent runs away like a same person. Lobo will take advantage of this and beat him until he can't come back. THREE CHEERS FOR THE MAIN MAN!
