Tybaltcapulet's " SQUEALLLLLL" Edges:

Short Range: Syringes as weapons, suck complete ass. Sure West gets three of them, but that's almost completely irrelevant when they're such fragile items to utilize. Pyg's cleaver is not only much more inherently lethal, he's been shown to be quite skilled with it, having been able to take down SWAT officers, and even giving Batman some decent competition.Edge: PYG

Medium Range: This is a little closer than the first category, but I still give the edge to Pyg and the buzzsaw. West's pipe may have extra range on the buzzsaw, but as an actual killing tool, the buzzsaw's monstrous cutting power will instantly do major damage to whatever Pyg hits with it. West's pipe is completely reliant on beating someone over and over again, leaving himself open to attack time and time again.Edge: PYG

Long Range: I'm giving this to West because he uses the shovel much more often, and has been shown to be quite skillful with it. Sure the pitchfork has those nice spikes, but Pyg isn't super used to using this weapon, as it's basically only been shown as a background tool. I don't see Pyg using this weapon very often, more likely he'll use his cleaver and buzzsaw for a lot of this fight. West however has been shown multiple time to be very good at utilizing the shovel to the best of his abilities, literally cutting people's heads off with no trouble.Edge: West 

Firearm: A pistol vs a shotgun. Both are made for short range engagements, but I see the M1911 being the more reliable weapon overall. The Sawed Shotty is great for power, but it suffers in one major area, capacity. It only has it's distinctive 2 rounds, one in each barrel, meaning it'll be plagued with constant reloads. The M1911 in West's semi-capable hands will be able to put out a lot more firepower for a longer time. Edge: West

Special: Ooh this is a tricky one. One is an instant kill cloth that West can use to kill just about anyone in this battle quickly. Problem is, it has absolutely no range and requires West to get super, super close to the person he's targeting. Then there's the drill, that also has limited range, and it's thin drill bit will make it pretty hard for Pyg to get a lethal shot. This makes sense since it isn't designed as a killing tool, its a post-mortem/after-battle tool. I'm giving a slight edge to West because while his range is horrible, it has an instant kill potential if West uses it correctly.Edge: West

Minions: I'm gonna give this straight to the Reanimators. Look the Dollotrons are better controlled by Pyg than West, but at the end of the day the Reanimators are simply the more capable minions. The Dollotrons are complete dumbasses and can die pretty easily to standard gunfire. The Reanimators can tank a hell of a lot of fire and possess a higher level of intelligence, being able to devise plans for ambushes and the like.Edge: West

X-factors/Overall: At first I though that the mad Professor Pyg would win this battle but after looking through all of the factors in this battle, I believe Herbert West will emerge victorious. While not being the best in terms of actual combat and not having as much experience as Pyg, there's one thing that supersedes them all. It's the fact that West is actually mentally sane. This will allow him to utilize all of his weapons and his sharp mind in a much more logical and tactically sound manner. Pyg's insanity will cause him to be unable to come up with sound strategy(I mean the guy tears people apart while  listening to opera music) and any advantage he may have in physical combat is just thrown down the drain. Herbert is better armed, much more sane, and is assisted by super-durable, quite intelligent minions that can make up for his physical shortcomings.

Herbert West: 3000

Professor Pyg: 2000
