User blog comment:Elgb333/A Grim Fairy Tale: Jack Horner vs Blue Fairy/@comment-35617681-20190705023057

Kriller99’s “Once Upon a Fable” edges:

Abilities: Difficult choice here. But I gotta give it to Jack. While the Blue fairy has slightly more versatility in her magic, it means squat because of Jack’s ability to disrupt magic, not to mention that his friend the pathetic fallacy means he has an ally to assist him in this fight. His physical abilities and the sack are just icing on the cake.

X-Factors: Yeah, definite edge goes to Jack. While Ms. Ghorm may possibly be a better long-term strategist, Jack is much better at improvising, which will be the more key factor in this fight, given that there won’t be a lot of prep time, and he’s dealt with people like her before, so it ultimately doesn’t matter. Secondly, it’s pretty clear that Jack has the edge when it comes down to actual physical combat, and his skill with firearms means he has a second ranged option on top of his magical abilities.

Weaknesses: Oh boy, the blue fairy really lost the coin toss in this area. Simply put, Jack can only really be beaten through INCREDIBLE physical means, and his magic doesn’t run out. As for the dragon thing, keep in mind the Ghorm still has to get close enough to vanquish him, and given her over reliance on magic, I don’t see that happening. Lastly, there’s really no doubt in my mind that Jack could find a way to trick her, given that’s what he’s most famous for.

Winner: Jack of Fables! Jack hold all the edges, and doesn’t have any weaknesses the Blue fairy can really exploit. The clincher,however, is that he doesn’t need to recharge his magic AND his physical abilities add to his effectiveness.
