So-Pro THE WARRIOR's EDGES

Melee: The Predators- Knuckle Plate Vibro Blade has one thing that the Predators won't expect about and that's the element of Surprise. The Knuckle Plate Vibro Blade is like the Assassins Hidden Blade of the future however unlike the Hidden Blade it is only like the ME's Omni-Blade as it attracts for a quick stab and then retracts immediately. So while the Knuckle Plate Vibro Blade has the element of Surprise the Wrist Blades have the longer reach and don't retract after being used.

Close Range: Delta Squad- The Combi Stick is a good weapon for close range and can also be tossed but once it is tossed then you have just disarmed yourself. The DC-15s side arm blaster has the longer range and literally has an infinite amount of ammo.

Ranged: Delta Squad-Sure the Plasma Caster is powerful especially when it is charged up but one problem is its slow rate of fire as it has to recharge after shots. Delta's DC-17m Interchangeable Weapon System is literally three weapons in one as it's a Blaster Rifle, a Sniper Rifle, and a Grenade Launcher. It has multiple uses, different ranges, and more faster rates of fire and reloading.

Extra Items: Even- Alright let's look at the Extra items that the two Warriors carry with them. With Delta they have two explosive weapons: Thermal Detonators, and a Detonation Pack. The Predators meanwhile have their Bio Mask, Their Cloaking, and the Voice Mimicary thing. The reason this is even is because of this. The Thermal Detonators and Detonation Pack can kill however the Detonation Pack has to be set up and if the Predators don't see it could have the element of surprise. However their is a limit to how many of these Delta Squad can carry. The Predators extra equipment while not weapons can be helpful and can be continuously used meanwhile. The Bio Mask can be used to track their Heat Signature's which could help out in the dense forests of Kashyyyk. The Cloaking can help them sneak up on the Delta's or to keep an eye on their movement or escpae from an attack. And the Voice Mimicary can be used to lure away members of Delta, that is if they fall for the trick as they would probably be able to tell if something is wrong as they should be the only Clones out there and as long as they don't get separated then they definetly won't fall for the trick as all of them are together. So in all while the Explosvies can kill they are only going to be a certain number of them while the Predators equipment while can't be used to kill can be used to help them out in the Hunt.

Armor: Delta Squad- The Delta's Katarn-class Commando Armour provides them with better protection all over the body, rechargable shields for more protection, and a weapon which is the Kncukle Plate Vibro Knife. The Predator's armor only covers portions of their bodies and doesn't come with shields meaning a more easier target and death.

X-Factors: Predators- Out of the 12 X-Factors the Predators take 6 of them these being Speed, Strength, Intellgence, Training, Endurance and Experience. Delta Squad takes 4 of the X-Factors being Co-Operation, Adaptation, Tactics, and Reactions and both Warriors tie for Hand-to-Hand and Agility. While Delta has 4 very good X-Factors on their side the Predators have som good and important ones as well such as Speed, Strength, Intelligence, and Experience. These Factors could lead to the downfall of Delta Squad.

The Deadliest Warriors: Delta Squad!

The Delta Squad will prevail in this battle but barley. While the Predators take the majority of the X-Factors the Predators only have the Melee Weapon Edge, and som good extra equipment but none that can kill from long range. Delta Squad carries in the better ranged weapons and the better armor meaning more protection from the Predators long and maybe melee weapons. While the combination of Speed and Strength will help in close range fighting the Delta's have somthing that the Predators don't have and that's Tactics and Co-operation. As soon as they figure out who they are dealing with they will come up with some good tactics to draw out the Predators. And the most important is their co-op. These four are Brothers in Arms they will fight with each other and protect one another meaning if one gets jumped by a predator the others will immediately come and bail him out by helping to take down the predator. The Predators are known for only attacking one at a time and not helping each other out as much. This could lead to their downfall as the Clones of Delta will always stick out for each other and watch each others back to the very end. Not to mention each member of Delta have their own traits to help out. Boss who is the Tactician of the group always getting everyone out of trouble, Sev being the best Sniper of the Group as he was able to take down a Geonosian Fighter with just 1-3 shots at least and Boss and Sev being able to anaylize the weaknesses of their foe. Each member of Delta Squad will look out for one another, will always have each others back, have the better ranged weapons and armor, and better tactics then the Predators who don't have good teamwork no good armor and a slow rate of firing long range weapon the Predators only stand a chance at long range and thats if the Deltas don't take them out from long range.
