User blog comment:Duncan322/Shaolin monks VS. Viking/@comment-28716800-20180130095841

I'm keeping this short and give it straight to Vikings. The reason why I skipped the weapons edge is that the Monk's lack of armor is really a huge pain in the ass, completely exposing the fragility of flesh to Viking's weapons, in complete contrast to his armored opponent. While the Viking will be troubled by the monk's better weapon using skills and martial art at first, he'll take the victory the moment he manages to make a strike on the Monk with whatever weapons he has.

Winner: Vikings
