Melee: Militia. The Riot Shield is a larger weapon, and while that may cost precision, it's a much more trustworthy weapon in combat when compared to the 2x4, which usually shatters after only a few hits. Also, the Riot Shield makes the Milita harder to hit in a gunfight, which is great.

Pistol: Militia. While both guns are more-or-less identical, the SIG has 7 more rounds, which is a godsend during the heat of battle.

Shotgun: Fireflies. The Mossberg is an actual working gun with 4 more rounds of ammo, and while it may not have as much range, that rarely matters when it comes to shotguns.

Assault Rifle: Fireflies. Both weapons are very similar, but the M16 has a bit of a range advantage, meaning the Fireflies will be able to better suppress their foes on the battlespace. Also, the Fireflies don't have as much ammo to work with, so they'll probably try to be a little more accurate.

Special: Fireflies. This is actually an interesting comparison. While the RPG is a much more powerful weapon, it's very flashy, takes a bit to reload, and the smoke trail can easily lead the Fireflies back to the shooter. It certainly doesn't have the tactical options of the homemade grenades, which can shred groups of enemies with shrapnel, turn areas of the fight into a flaming death trap, and blind and disorient the Militia, leaving them open to ambushes.

Special: Militia. The flamethrower in TLoU is great, but it's ultimately a big clunky backpack going up against a machine gun turret that also comes packing heavy armor.

Deadliest Warrior: The Militia. When it comes down to it, the Militia is simply a more organized, better equipped fighting force capable of fighting much bigger foes than anything the Fireflies have faced. With better resources, weaponry, and training at their disposal, the Militia will eat the Fireflies up like a delicious bowl of a gumbo. Overall Score: 650-350
