Kazanshin's "Steel!? STEEL, you say!? Take you shit out of here, I ain't buying it!" edges:

Close range: Ok, I see we have an obsidian chainsaw designed to rip flesh, cut bones, smash through limbs and straight up destroy everything in its path against a caveman's mace. Do I really need to explain this? The macuahuitl can be wielded alongside the shield, cuts instead of bashing, can sever entire limbs, has a bigger killing surface and has a more equally distributed weight. This isn't even a fair comparison. Edge: Aztec Jaguar

Mid range: The tepoztopilli is a halberd/spear hybrid. Something that's not too long for close quarters combat nor too short to keep the enemy at a safe distance. It can both cut and thrust and shreds through flesh like butter with the obsidian blades. The tacuara lance is overly long for close quarters and can only really thrust. Superior killing power, superior utility in 1-1 and superior versatility, the tepoztopilli again curbstomps the tacuara lance. Edge: Aztec Jaguar

Long range: Obsidian heads vs stone heads, going against a poncho vs going against actual armor, and one can fire 20 arrows at a time. No contest. Edge: Aztec Jaguar

Special: The bolas are actually a useful weapon in the mapuche arsenal. They offer a long range weapon that can immobilize the Aztec, which pretty much guarantees a kill. The cuauhololli, on the other hand, brings no real new options to the fight. That's why, going against the grain, I give the edge to the bolas. Edge: Mapuche

X-Factors: Do I need to explain? The Aztec takes every X-Factor with no exception. Edge: Aztec Jaguar

Final Verdict: Justice has been served to the Aztec. He has superior weapons, superior armor (which I didn't even mention because it would be a waste of time) is better trained, physically better fit and more experienced. It's really no contest, the Aztec will destroy the Mapuche without any kind of trouble whatsoever. Deadliest Warrior: Aztec Jaguar Warrior
