Undead RVD's Edges of.... Stuff:


 * Melee: Soul Edge wins it. It has ALLOT more reach than Shao Kahn's War Hammer.
 * Edge: Nightmare
 * Short Range: Both are good at Knocking down enemies. It's even to me.
 * Edge: Even
 * Mid Range: The Spike Charge is not as powerful as the Night Regnum, but it is faster, harder to dodge and can interrupt Nightmare's other attacks.
 * Edge: Shao Kahn
 * Long Range:The Dark Soul Impact is just him stabbing. It most defiantly lacks the range the Shau Kahn's Hammer Throw.
 * Edge: Shau Kahn
 * Special: I'm..... not sure which is better
 * Edge: Even
 * My Vote: Shau Kahn
 * A big thing Shau Kahn has over Nightmare is experience. He was the ruler of Outworld for many years and his age is more than tens of thousands of years. Nightmare may have existed long ago but mainly in the form of Soul Edge, not Nightmare. He is also much more tactical as he was able to take over Edenia and ruled for a long time. The sword Soul Edge is very manipulative, but Nightmare himself is much more chaotic and cares more about killing and winning fights than concurring and controlling worlds.
