User blog comment:BattleGames1/Deadliest Warrior Battle 12 - Shion Sonozaki vs Dexter Morgan/@comment-5232784-20130426014004

Okay woodcampers, lets get this party started

1. Primary weapon

Both weapons are identical, and though the knife fighting prowess of both combatants can be debated, I have no choice but to give this a tie

EDGE: Dead Even!

2. Secondary weapon 1

The Sledgehammer has more range and killing power, but the Bone saw can be utilized more quickly and has a nasty, nasty blade. Yet the sledgehammer still wins out due to superior range, power, and the fact that the Bone saw can get easily crumpled by the hammer blow

EDGE: SHION!

3. Secondary weapon 2

The spiked whip can remove flesh from your bone with one strike, while the Meat cleaver can be used only for a side or top to bottom strike, not as a stabbing weapon as well. Though the Meat Cleaver can be thrown, otherwise the spiked whip has the range and higher lethality.

EDGE: DEXTER!

4. Special weapon 1

The Garotte is higly lethal, more so than the stun gun, but you have to be in the right position at the right time to use the Garotte, and pity on you if your opponent can quickly get to a weapon and use it against your arms while you try your garotte (as BG1 states clearly in his weapon on weapon analysis).

Due to the limited ways one can use a Garotte, and the threat of Shion using a knife or stun gun or other weapon while the garotte is being utilized, I can only conclude that Dexter is in deep doo doo here.

EDGE: SHION!

5. Special weapon 2

While the Kitana is a savage blade, as BG admitted above, Jiu-Jitsu is a martial art that is designed to be used against armed and armored foes, especially when you have little to no weapons yourself to fight with. Dexter meanwhile has mastered the art of Jiu-Jitsu, while Shion, as far as I know, has not recieved any training in how to most effectively utilize such a sword.

EDGE: DEXTER!

6. X-Factors

Dexter has the advantage in strength, agility, training, mental health, experience, and stealth. Combined, they make for a formidavle serial killer. Shion on the other hand has the advantage in brutality and killer instinct, but these are comparatively useless against better intelligence, physicality, stealth, experience  and skill. Dexter has the lead

EDGE: Dexter!

Dexter may be equal to Shion in the weapons capacity, but in X factors he dominates. He is bigger, stronger, more resistant to injury, smarter, more experience, and more stealthy, meaning he will most likely get the drop on Shion first than vice versa. And in a battle of serial killers, whoever gets the drop gets the victory: Shion wll wake up in a torture chamber, with the Dex boy smiling as he readies his handy bone saw.

DEXTER DESOLATES SHION
