Hello there and I'm TheWetWaffle! Welcome to my fourth battle and we are really picking up heat as we are pitting two different hunters against each other, it's Spike Spiegel vs Nathan Drake to see who is the deadliest warrior.

Spike Spiegel (Cowboy Bebop)
Spike was born on June 26, 2044 on Mars. Due to a cataclysmic event on Earth, humanity had to find a location to reside in so they went to other planets like Mars. Not much is known about his early life but sometime before the events of Cowboy Bebop, Spike was member of the Red Dragon Crime Syndicate along with his friend Vicious. Spike fell in love with Vicious' girlfriend Julia as she nursed him to health and they fell in love. Spike faked his death to be with Julia but she never met with him at the graveyard they planned to meet in. Sometime later Spike met Jet Black, an ex ISSP officer turned bounty hunter and they start to work together.



Nathan Drake (Uncharted)
Nathan Drake's early life is a mystery. Not much is known about it besides the fact that his birth mother died and father gave him away to the state. During his teenage years he adopted the name Nathan Drake and went to Colombia to visit the Maritime Museum where the Francis Drake exhibit was. There he met Victor Sullivan, a former US Navy troop. They become partners and friends, traveling the world to places like Peru and Costa Rica to hunt for treasure. Eventually they meet Elena Fisher, a reporter documenting the findings of Sir Francis' coffin. They end up going on an adventure fighting El Dorado's descendants and Atoq Navarro. Drake eventually goes to Borneo to find Shambala and runs into Elena. The two reveal to Chloe Frazer that they were together but seperated between Uncharted: Drake's Fortune and Uncharted 2: Among Thieves. Nate and Elena eventually get married but separate again between Uncharted 2 and Uncharted 3. In Uncharted 3 Nate is in pursuit of Iram of the Pillars but runs into an old friend of Sully, Katherine Marlow. Nate finds and destroys the city and destroys it and the game ends with Nate, Elena, and Sully going to a plane similar to the one they crashed in Uncharted 1.

X Factors
Explanations
 * Neither of these men are military trained but Spike was trained by the Red Dragon Crime Synidicate so he gets the edge. Drake probably learned alot from Sully and a bit of martial arts but wasn't formally trained.
 * Drake takes the edge since he can do a lot of parkour and monkey around. Spike is in great condition but not as well as Drake.
 * Spike probably has engaged in a lot during his tenure as a member of the Red Dragon. But Drake has fought more and tougher enemies than Spike like the El Dorado Descendants and Guardians of Shambala.
 * Spike can pull off some pretty good shots like it's nothing. Drake can handle any firearm you give him but Spike's accuracy gives him the edge.
 * In Cowboy Bebop, Spike is shown to have really good fighting skills and has very good agility. Drake just throws punches and can do some nasty kicks but doesn't have the skills Spike holds.
 * Spike is very intelligent, being able to throw himself out of almost any situation with skill. Drake manages to take the edge due to his better ability to improvise and can connect one thing to another, like a temple's statue to something he saw earlier, at any moment.
 * Both of these men are very lucky, they've managed to get out of situations where the odds aren't in their favor so it's even.

Edges
Edge: Spike Spiegel Edge: Even Edge: Nathan Drake Edge: Nathan Drake Edge: Nathan Drake
 * Fighting Style: Spike's Jeet Kune Do/ French boxing hybrid give him the edge do to his harder punches and ability to hit punches in areas Drake is exposed. Drake doesn't really have the fluidity Spike has since he just throws punches and can get a few kicks in.
 * Close Range:The Remington has a faster rate of fire and better range but the SPAS 12 can shoot semi auto. It's even for me.
 * Mid Range: The P99 gets the edge due to it's barely better capacity.
 * Long Range: The AKS-74U has a stronger round and better range, giving it the edge.
 * Special: The MGL can shoot at a faster rate, do more damage, and has a better range.

Scenerio
The battle will take place after a Strange Relic  takes Nate, Sully, Chloe, Charlie, and the mercenary accompanying them to Mars in the 2070s (Spike was born in 2044, he is 27 in the anime, so the show should take place around 2071). Spike, along with 4 bounty hunters mistake them for a bounty with a similar apperance to Drake. Chaos ensues.
