WanderingSkull's GraveDigging Tunes "The Germans Are Back At It Again"

Deadliest Warrior: Rudol von Stroheim- Since as others mentioned this isn't the typical match set-up between two warriors, I'm just going to the initial victory to Stroheim when in comes men who became walking weapons. First off is the immediate difference in how the two warriors will battle, Stroheim has the better ranged weaponry, since well he has ranged weapons and a strong variety of them. White Cleaver has the greater potential at close range with his scythe (You had one job) as we've never seen Stroheim have many melee focused combat feats. Cleaver is as expected put at a major disadvantage when dealing with Stroheim's borderline supernatural feats of endurance and durability, even as a normal human, Stroheim tanked a direct grenade hit that crippled a Pillar Man and lived long enough to become the fantastic of German science and engineering that he is today. White Cleaver has the ability of being able to reconstruct himself from minor bits of matter unless he is killed in a specific manner.

Still, what closes this in for me is that Stroheim's obvious range advantage, sheer variety of weapons, strength and various other materials have him coming out on top against the limited White Cleaver. Cleaver is going to be forcibly relegated to close range combat which can in its own way benefit, Stroheim as he'll need to worry less about Cleaver's dodging abilities since they'll be directly facing each other. As mentioned by Kazzy, Stroheim is no stranger to those with supernatural abilities consisting of amazing agility and strength and although its certainly not extensive, he has a solid knowledge of how to deal with them, after all, he assisted greatly in the fight against Ultimate Kars, both by mowing down hordes of Vampires and even pinning the ultimate life form himself. White Cleaver can certainly hold his own and his speed is going to be the toughest part to compete since Stroheim isn't super fast or quick. Stroheim's surprise factor and ever-changing arsenal makes it difficult to compete when limited to one weapon and when Stroheim's said weapons include rockets, armor piercing rounds, shotgun shells and grenades he's in a difficult spot when closing the range makes its easier for Stroheim to get a clean shot.
