BeastMan14's "Now with 5 minutes of uncut scenes/Where's the Rat Monkeys?" edges

NOTE: Will the Na'Vi or the Skull Island tribe be present?

Team Tyrant: I think King Kong takes this edge. The Great Leonptyerx is big, but it isn't as tough as it looks. In the Avatar game, RDA forces can take it down just as easily as any other Leonptyrex if the player isn't careful, and Kong had a history of being able to take down smaller, flying enemies with precision. He's bigger, meaner, and ultimately stronger than the Great Hunter. Edge: Skull Island

Aggressor: Man, I really wanted to vote for the Thanator because it's a badass alien-panther thing that can be ridden into battle, but it just isn't big enough or strong enough to take down the V-Rex, which is a bigger and nastier cousin of the T-Rex. If it was a pack of Thanator's versus two V-Rex's, I might be able to give it to them, but the V-Rex is simply too large and too strong a foe for two Thanator's to take down. Edge: Skull Island

Hunters: The Viperwolf may seem small compared to the Venatosauras, but what enables it to take this edge is its superiority as a pack hunter. The wolves use the same tactic as the raptors, but are much bigger on coordinating and attacking faster than the foe can really prepare for or even attempt to counter. The raptors aren't so fast that the untrained Jack couldn't take them down without too much trouble, while the Viperwolve's effortlessly overran armed military forces even before the final battle of Pandora. The wolves small size will benefit them greatly for stealth attacks against any foe on the field. Edge: Pandora

Gentle Giant: The Hammerheads have a major advantage in the form of their less than docile temperament, while the Brontosaurus usually doesn't attack unless absolutely necessary. The Hammerheads are much more willing to attack a foe, and while the Brontosaurs are big, the Hammerheads armor and head give them much deadlier and more varied tactical options. Edge: Pandora

Defenders: The Direhorse is fast, but they aren't really great for actual battle, and they're pretty fragile, in all honesty. The Triceratops are much stronger, much more brutal, and can back up their strength and size with real offensive options. Edge: Skull Island

Land Dweller: This is an interesting edge. The Foetodon is much bigger than the Slinger, but the Slinger's venomous head will give it far more tactical and teamwork options against the creatures of Skull Island. Edge: Even

Aerial Attacker: Terapusmordax are, in all honesty, kind of dumb, with their echolocation sacrificing any attempt at surprise, and they don't really have anything to hit their prey with beyond their teeth and claws. The Forest Banshee also rely on pack tactics, but they're much bigger, faster, and stronger. Edge: Pandora

Deadliest Ecosystem: Pandora will finally win something for once. Skull Island may have the bigger and nastier creatures, but that comes at the cost of the island's creatures slowly working each other pretty much to extinction, with Kong killing whatever he wants, when he wants, really not helping things. Pandora's creatures are brought together out of unity by Eywa, and they'll work together to take down anything Skull Island throws at them, while Skull Island will be too busy hunting each other to put up a spirited defense. Score: 675-325
