I would like to challenge Waffen SS vs. IRA as unfair for a few reasons. Firstly, the technological gap that the Waffen SS is facing is pretty significant. Their only comparable weapon, the STG-44, is still outclassed by the IRA's more modern AR-15 (The AR-15 has a longer effective range, is more accurate with its 5.56mm round, has a faster rate of fire, weighs less, and can be switched to semi-automatic for more accurate shots. Plus, it's more customizable). And that's not even looking at the vastly superior sniper rifle, which is so overpowered in this fight that the IRA sniper might as well just pick off the entire enemy team before they get within firing range. Also, as I've stated in the past, the Waffen SS were primarily guards and "Final Solution" enforcers, not front-line fighters as Deadliest Warrior portrayed them - so the combat-capable IRA would dismantle the startled SS in any protracted firefight.

Yeah, the Waffen SS won, but that's only because the voting standards weren't really enacted when the blog was put up, and most of the people who voted for them just wrote "ss" anyway.
