Drayco90's Edgy Edges of Edgy-AMERICA!


 * First Place- Lucian. Lucian is significantly stronger, faster, more experienced and stronger motivated than his opponents- while they all fight regularly, none of them have been a war lasting as long or as brutal as Lucian, and Lucian is fighting a war for his own rights and freedom, a kind of goal that will drive a warrior forward far more than "I hunt demons for a living" or "I just do stuff for shits and giggles" or "I look like a dick and explode". Lucian also has a powerful healing factor that will keep him coming back, even without any of his non-natural weaponry, and is a far better strategist and planner than the others, allowing him to take tactical control of the battle with ease.


 * Second Place- Spike. Spike has another large advantage because of the four, he is by far the most intelligent, and while he may not be as great a tactician as Lucian, that alone makes him an incredibly dangerous threat in combat. Few can match Spike's cunning. But that's not his only advantage- he's been a vampire for a long, long time, and as a result his superhuman powers are even greater than normal vampires- his strength, speed, endurance and perception are all far beyond normal warriors, and his mastery of numerous forms of close combat and skill/finesse in fighting hand-to-hand make him nearly unbeatable up close. In the end, Spike's skills, augmented by his experience, intellect, ability to analyze his enemies and his cleverness will all allow Spike to make his way through most of this battle and come out near the top of the scrap heap.


 * Third Place- Dante. Dante ends up in third place because, while not a human at all, his only being half-demon prevents him from having as great a range of powers as the full vampires and werewolves with centuries upon centuries of experience that also battle here. While Dante does possess superhuman strength, endurance and healing, they are neither as powerful or as honed as his opponents, and he suffers for this. Rebellion may be a good sword, but it's relatively slow compared to the attack styles of his foes, and his guns may as well not exist considering how little they do to anything ever. Dante's biggest asset will be his Devil Trigger, but that won't last too long and they aren't going to be game-changing. In the end, Dante is a cocky, arrogant shit who doesn't have either the skills or experience to put his powers to the test, unlike Spike and Lucian, and he doesn't have nearly as much motivation to fight.


 * Fourth Place- Minecraft Zombies. These guys come in dead last by a huge margin- they aren't nearly as combat-oriented and lack skill or strategy. They'll be butchered in seconds, leaving the match to the other three.
