Undead RVD's "Game Over, Man." EDGES:
Short Range: The M4A3 Pistol lacks the power and accuracy of the Boltok, but it has the superior rate of fire and magazine size. I say even. It is power vs numbers. Mid Range: The Gorgon Submachine Gun has allot of rounds and a major rate of fire but it is only useful at a short range and and each bullet doesn't do that much by itself. The ZX 76 Shotgun is likely more accurate and packs allot more power in each shot. It is also double barreled, allowing Marines to blast enemies apart with ease. Again, it is power vs numbers. Long Range: This one is easy to pick. The M41A Pulse Rifle MK2 has twice the number of rounds and those rounds are explosive. The Pulse Rifle also has a powerful grenade launcher that deals supreme damage. Special: I known you were trying to make the match more fair by reducing the number of rounds of the M56 Smartgun but I feel that things are actually more unfair. You gave the Lotus an explosive crossbow-like weapon with pinpoint accuracy and a near-indestructible shield. How is that fair? You should remove that shield. That should make the fight a tad bit more fair. Vote: I won't pick a winner till you remove the shield, as it is unfair for the Lotus to have that and a weapon as powerful as the Torgue Bow.
