Pistols: Glock 17 vs Desert Eagle

In most situations, the one pistol with greater firepower can save the day. Especially when you have a Desert Eagle in your pocket. Stat-wise, the Desert Eagle is superior compared to the Glock. The only thing that hampers the Deagle's edge-taking is its small-ass 7-round clip. Other than that, the Deagle's range is superior compared to the Glock 17. The battle itself takes place in the CQC-oriented favelas, and the most effective pistol to be used in a fast-paced situation in a close-quarters-area is the one pistol that takes down people faster. And as such, the Brazilian Militia takes this. As much as how big the recoil is, one shot should be enough to take down one Joker Gang member. The Glock possesses 10 more rounds in a clip, yes, but it lacks the stopping power. Though I do know, stopping power doesn't mean a gun must always win (sorry).

SMGs: MAC-10 vs Mini Uzi

The Uzi fires slower, but possesses more rounds in a clip. The Mac-10's the reverse of it. It fires as fast as Barry Allen, has more stopping power with its .45 ACP, but has 2 less rounds in a clip. This one's a tough choice, but I'll say the Joker Gang takes this. Well, apologies if I simply go for the "stronger" one, but, I'll explain as good as I can. As I said previously, the battle takes place in a place where close-range battles are gonna happen a lot (to be honest, I have not yet seen any favela stages in CoD, so I take the basics of what a favela is from real life. And IRL, favels are pretty tight as hell). And to eliminate the enemy, a gun with a better killing capacity must be used (....). Sure, the MAC has more recoil than the Uzi, and the rounds are less than the Uzi. But thing is, the difference isn't that high. Recoil's not gonna matter if you suddenly meet the enemy head-on, point blank. Though in longer ranges, it will affect things up, a lot. So, overall, the MAC-10 wins due to its superior firepower and ROF.

Shotguns: Remington 870 vs M1887 Winchester

Ok... I can't really see how the Winchester wins here. It is an older gun, and while it is still effective, it is more impractical compared to the Remington. Clearly, the Joker Gang takes this. Both possess a seven round tubular clip. But sometimes, simply pumping the weapon shot after shots is easier than pulling the lever underneath the gun grip (eh, don't know how to name it). So overall, I can't say much about this, but the Remington fires faster than the Winchester. So, the Joker Gang wins this.

Rifles: M1 Garand vs FN FAL

(Sigh) Another old weapon vs modern weapon? The Brazilian Militia wins this. The M1 Garand has only 8 rounds in a clip. The FN FAL possesses '20' rounds in a clip. The superior amount of rounds allow the FAL to take this place. The Garand does have a bigger amount of range. But not every lunatics and psychos from Arkham are Chris Kyle-s. The FN FAL is more versatile than the M1 Garand, I say. Besides, a WW2-era weapon against a more modern weapon? Sorry Patton. The FN FAL is the greater battle implement to be devised in this battle...

Explosives: RPG-7 vs M79

Gotta agree with Spartan in this one. The Brazilian Militia takes the edge. The RPG is clearly the stronger one compared to the M79. Bad thing is, this battle takes place in a tight-spaced area, so using the RPG-7 is more... threatening. Let's just say, the RPG can take down 3 or 5 militants, but at the cost of, maybe 2 of the Jokerz themselves. Because the RPG-7's blast radius is bigger, and how close the favelas are, the RPG-7 could actually kill the Gang's friendlies if not used careful enough. Especially firing it indoor. The M79 itself is lighter, and its possibility of endangering friendlies is lesser.

Vehicles: School Bus vs Pickup Truck

This one is pretty funny, in my opinion. Using the vehicles as transportation is sensible in this battle. But mid-way through the battle, what good would it do, other than providing cover? Lol. Anyways, I'll give this one to the Brazilian Militia. The bus is a juggernaut, yes, but the thing is, you need to be fast in maneuvering in the favelas. While the pickup truck is less durable, its mobility will allow the militants inside it to avoid the Joker Gang's incoming gunshots from the school bus. Thing is, how can the Jokerz fire their guns from a school bus? Overall, the pickup truck wins (barely) because of its higher mobility to maneuver around the favelas. If taken to other considerations, other than mobility, the bus could win due to its titanic durability.

X-Factors: Joker Gangsters vs Brazilian Militants

Gangsters: 73

Militants: 73

... whoa... it's EVEN! But don't worry. I will give an explanation down below.

WINNER: BRAZILIAN MILITIA

The Brazilians may have lost in the categories of shotguns and SMGs that are crucial in short-range combat, as well as vehicle (NEARLY), but the militants are the greater force in this one. Most of the gangsters are pretty much insane and crazy, and they are less disciplined. The militants on the other hand, are more disciplined and sane. But looking back at the X-Factors, the Joker Gang actually 3 out of 5 of the X-Factor categories, but what makes me chose the militants as the winner is because the Jokerz, as I said, are insane. They have faced the Batman, but to Bruce Wayne himself, they are pretty much nothing but a bunch of weird thugs to face. Only the Joker himself is a big threat to him. But the Joker isn't in this battle, so screw it. Killer instinct isn't gonna matter here, cause the two sides are gonna murder the sh*t out of each other, anyway. The Jokerz' mental health affection can also lead them to losing in this battle. A member could be like, laughing at a militant while holding an RPG-7, and get distracted. The militant then pulls out his Desert Eagle and tells the gringo to f*ck off, shooting his groin... OK, that ain't gonna happen lol. But, overall, the militants win because of their superior weapons, faster vehicle and better psychic condition. Sorry if there are mistakes in my vote.
