User blog comment:El Alamein/Amon Goeth vs. Hans Landa/@comment-5232784-20130113230848

1. Weaponry

For most of these weapons I do not have enough intel to compare and contrast, but what I find interesting is that Landa has 2 melee weapons (cloth garrotte and SS dagger) as opposed to Goeth's 1 (Pistol whip). That right there is an advantage, and we haven't mentioned yet that both the dagger and garrotte are each more lethal than the pistol whip.

Plus, Landa is a field operator: Goeth is a concentration Camp head officer, meaning that he often kills but not in combat situations. In a way, he is a pencil pusher, without much of the experience of field combat as Landa. Therefore he is not as experienced using combat weapons in real combat situations as Landa.

Landa's better weapons experience in combat, having two melee weapons as opposed to Goeth's 1, and finally the fact that both melee weapons are more lethal than Goeth's, puts the weapons category on Landa's side.

Edge: Landa

2. Creativity/Intelligence

It takes a lot of intelligence and creativity to hunt down Nazi desirables as well as Mr. Landa does; the death camps involved the same types of murder and brutality day after day, with few exceptions: not much room for creativity and ingenuity, save for the schmucks that design the way the people died (and even then they did not have the day to day creativity that a Nazi undesirable hunter had)

Edge: Landa

3. Strategy

Landa is a field operator, given to strategy often in order to find his prey, while Goeth has little need to come up with ways to kill people that he can do easily and without fear of retaliation. Landa has a commanding lead here.

edge: Landa

Hans Landa has the major advantage here. Goeth was cruel and barbaric, but Landa knows how to day in and day out hunt people down and capture or kill them. His victims are not like those in a concentration camp, where they are huddled together and make easy targets to despicable guards. Landa is evil also, but his victims make it hard for him to do his job, and he does it with impressive skill. Hans Landa is intelligence, experienced, and crafty; Goeth will be no moreth!
