User blog:Pygmy Hippo 2/Human Alliance (Warcraft III:Reign of Chaos) vs. Black Legion (For Honor)

If there was any warrior with wasted potential on Deadliest Warrior, it was the Knight. The Knight went up against an opponent who mostly used firearms. A better battle for the Medieval tank would have been the Spartan or Samurai. Today, two of the deadliest plate armor wearing factions will battle with their three main units.

Human Alliance

Bio:King Terenas' brave soldiers from Lordaeron and it's allies, the Human Alliance protects their people from the Orcish Horde and Undead Scourge. The Footman is a heavily armored melee combatant. The Rifleman is a deadly ranged sharpshooter. The Knight is a fast assault unit.

Weapons-

Short:Broadsword

The Footman and Knight's primary weapon for slashing foes apart.

Mid:Lance

The Knight's secondary weapon can easily knock a rider off his horse.

Long:Blunderbuss Long Rifle

A weapon used by the dwarven Rifleman. A single-shot weapon that is used to slay enemies from afar.

Special:Kite Shield

The Footman's heavy defense slows him when in use but greatly enhances his defense and allows him to deflect projectiles.

Tactical:Horse

What is a Knight without his horse? A horse is fast and can buck opponents.

The Blackstone Legion

Bio:Ruled by Appolyon, a female warlord, who desired eternal war between the knights, samurai, and vikings, the Black Legion managed to accomplish that goal. The Wardens are the most balanced troops. The Conquerers are heavy soldiers and former prisoners. The Peacekeepers are assassins who are the first to strike.

Weapons-

Short:Longsword

A Warden's weapon for breaking bones and hacking enemies to bits.

Mid:Footman's Flail

The Conquerer's devastating weapon that is hard to block and can effortlessly kill.

Long:Catapult

No need to lug it around. It's an ability used by the Warden that fires a giant rock at a location.

Special:Dagger

A Peacekeeper's weapon for silent and effective kills.

Tactical:Flash Grenade

A thrown non-lethal grenade used by the Peacekeeper that blinds the opponent for a while.

X-Factors-

Armor-Edge:Black Legion

The Warden has plate armor and chainmail. The Conquerer replaces the regular helmet with a pot helm. The Peacekeeper only keeps the chainmail and adds light leather. The Footman is in plate armor and so is the Knight but the latter lacks a helmet. The Rifleman has no armor.

Experience-Edge:Human Alliance

The Black Legion has fought both the Chosen Samurai and Warborn Vikings but the Human Alliance battles fantasy races like the Orcish Horde, Undead Scourge, and Night Elf Sentinels.

Tactics-Edge:Black Legion

Each of the Black Legion troops have their own set of skills. The Human Alliance has troops who are really only using one ability or upgrade.

Battle will be a four-on-four with the Human Alliance having two Footmen, a Rifleman, and a Knight while the Black Legion will have two Wardens, a Conquerer, and a Peacekeeper. Fight takes place in a Medieval town and field. Votes need edges and a winner. Voting ends on July 12th.
