'''Mob of the Dead! The 1930s mobsters who found themselves alone on Alcatraz as they attempted to escape on their makeshift plane'''

VS

'''Call of the Dead! The celeberties on Romero's newest zombie fim who found themselves caught in the middle of a real zombie apoclypse'''

WHO IS DEADLIEST?

Last time in the Zombie-Slayer Mini Series we saw the Left 4 Dead 2 Gang band together to overcome the better-equipped TranZit Survivors. This time though, we're digging further into the Call of Duty Zombies mythos by pitting two more of their teams against each other. First up, Mob of the Dead group consisting of Finn O'Learly, Albert Arlington, Salvatore DeLuca, and Billy Handsome. While attempting to escape from 'The Rock', they found themselves in the middle of a zombie outbreak, leaving their escape plan as their only hope...

Standing up against them though is Call of the Dead group that stars Danny Trejo, Sarah Michelle Geller, Robert Englund, and Micheal Rooker. After zombies snatched Romero, they found themselves in the ultimate roles of their lives...

This I have Jyhet and da F bombs back at my side to judge this battle of CoD's off-shoots of the main story line, and this time no stone is going to be left unturned. On the agenda are melee weapons, submachine guns, assault rifles, perks, and the Wonder Weapons of each game. So cover me as I get the weapons out of the closet...

Up Close and Personal: Sickle vs Prison Knife
Jyhet:  I'm not going to dance around the bush here. The Sickle is of a higher quality. Edge: Sickle

Affectos: Quality takes presidence here. One is an actual tool while the other is just a sharped piece of metal. Edge: Sickle

da F bombs: I doubt that the Prison Knife is as sharp as the Sickle. While the Prison Knife can maim, the Sickle will kill. Edge: Sickle

Overall Edge: Sickle

Packin' Heat: M1911 vs Executioner
Jyhet: This is a close range match and the I'll take the gun dealing out more damage per shot. Edge: Executioner

Affectos: I'm actually going against what I said about the B23R vs P220 last time. In this match, the Executioner may have fewer rounds, but it covers a larger area for damage. Edge: Executioner

da F bombs: I see the M1911 as the more reliable weapon. It also has the superior number of ammo and the faster clip reload. Edge: M1911

Overall Edge: Executioner

Eat Your Heart Out Winchester: SPAS-12 vs S12
Jyhet: S12 has the higher rate of fire and reload time. It's the overall faster weapon. Edge: S12

Affectos: More rounds, lighter weight, and it's semi-auto. No brainer for me. Edge: S12

da F bombs: The clips will make the reload much faster than the SPAS's reload. Edge: S12

Overall Edge: S12

With Age Comes Wisdom: MP40 vs Tommy Gun
Jyhet: The MP40 has the better weight and range. Edge: MP40

Affectos: The Thompson has the sturdier stock and longer barrel. Edge: Thompson

da F bombs: The MP40 is German, so that scores points with me. While the cost of it was high during WWII, it was one of the best German guns. Edge: MP40

Overall Edge: MP40

Load Up, Lockdown: RPK vs LSAT
Jyhet: The LSAT may be lighter and have more rounds, but the RPK is the more versatile gun.  Edge: RPK

Affectos: I'm a sucker for chaingun, but I know that they're more likely to jam. In that case, I have to side with the gun that is more reliable and can have an attachable scope. Edge: RPK

da F bombs: The RPK can adjust and adapt to different ranges. Edge: RPK

Overall Edge: RPK

KABOOM! Semtex vs Claymore
Jyhet: The Claymore's ability to be aimed increases the killing potential of the weapon. Edge: Claymore

Affectos: The Claymore requires time to set up, time I can use to gun you down. Edge: Semtex

da F bombs: The thing about Semtex that I really like, it sticks (in game) to the target, letting you to get back to your gun. Edge: Semtex

Overall Edge: Semtex

And Yet I Wonder... Ray Gun vs Blundergat
Jyhet:  The Ray Gun has a infinite range, meaning that the distance doesn't cause a drop in leathality. Edge: Ray Gun

Affectos: Think about it, you're firing two double-barreled shotguns. Anything in your path is gone. Edge: Blundergat

da F bombs: The Ray Gun's range just carries it for me. Edge: Ray Gun

Overall Edge: Ray Gun

Drink Up!  Deadshot Daiquiri vs Electric Cherry
Jyhet:  If the battle draws out, I want the ability to hit you from a longer distance. Edge: Deadshot Daiquiri

Affectos: Cute, you shocked me. Now while you rub your feet on the carpet, I'll be aiming at your head. Edge: Deadshot Daiquiri

da F bombs: Accuracy is going to help you kill more often than stunning them. Edge: Deadshot Daiquiri

Overall Edge: Deadshot Daiquiri

X-Factors
Teamwork

It's common to see some form of rivalries between the teams. For Call of the Dead, Micheal and Robert seem to have a bantering going back and forth, but the Mob of the Dead team shares the least amount of teamwork of all the teams. The best example is shown when you listen to the Alcatraz Audio Tour. (I'm not spoiling it)

Training

It's clear that the Mob of the Dead team has had experience through the mob/mafia, but the stars are no slouches either. They've shown enough survival skills to keep themselves alive

Experience

This is a clean sweep for the Call of the Dead. Sure, Brutus is a pain in the neck by shutting down the Mystery Box and shutting off the Perk-a-cola machines, but Romero...if you have to face a boss who gains 25,000 health for every player...that's a challenge.

Battle Info:
