'''119's "Only I Decide When I've Had Enough!" Edges'''

Melee: The Machete takes this as it has a straight blade that can be used for both cutting and thrusting, while the extreme curve of the sickle makes it only viable for cutting. Don't get me wrong, both are mainly slashing weapons, but the machete at least gives you a few more options. Edge: Miguel

Handguns: The Glock has a larger magazine and partially makes up for its smaller round with a higher muzzle velocity. Edge: Miguel

Shotguns: The Remington 870 is a pump-action shotgun, meaning it can fire more shots before being reloaded- six vs two. Edge: Miguel

SMGs: The Thompson is a classic firing a formidable round, but the AK-74u has an even more powerful bullet, actually firing a full-sized assault rifle round. This gives it a longer range, not the mention the legendary AK-47 reliability. Edge: Nikolai

Sniper Rifles: Both weapons have their advantages. The Dragunov is a semi-automatic rifle, meaning it has a faster rate of fire and a larger magazine, and is lighter. These make it more effective at medium to long range precision marksmanship, and the light weight means its easier to carry with you and prepare to fire on the move. The Barret stands out at long to extreme range, and fires a far more powerful round with a longer range. For this reason, I will make a new class of edge and call this one a Situation Dependent Tie.

Special 1: The Thundergun has a longer range than the Tequila fire shot, even if it will only knock a target down, it will give one of Nikolai's teammates time to shoot the downed enemy. Edge: Nikolai

Special 2: The Rocket Guitar definitely gains points for awesomeness, but in terms of practicality, it is beat out by the M67 as it has a more controllable flight path and the grenade has a bigger blast radius. The grenade also can be used indoors, while the guitar rockets would presumably hit the ceiling and detonate. Edge: Nikolai

X-Factors: Nikolai and his allies are better trained, have far greater combat experience, and, while not as audacious, are more tactically-minded and work more effectively as a team. For this reason, Nikolai takes the edge.

Winner: Nikolai Belinski claims victory for Mother Russia in this clash of the drunken masters of zombie slaughter thanks to his superior training, tactics, and combat experience, as well as the firepower of his AK-74u, which will likely be one of the most used weapons in this fight.
