User blog comment:Sith Venator/Mandalorians vs Spartans/@comment-213.229.72.62-20110817185757

The Spartans are simply the superior warriors. They crush alien warriors who who significantly more advanced technology than them and also have life times of training. The only thing the Mandolorains have is partail coverage of armor that is indestrutable, but that's not enough to win it. There armor only cover parts of the chest, head and a few more parts of the body. Spartan armor has layers of protection and shilds and very strong alloys that are resistant to plasma.
