>Also, to bring a topic outside of politics and such.
uff that like what of the topics I know the most (not /pol/ edition though)
>What do you think of the whole death battle thingy with Twily vs Ravan from teen titans? Frankly while I do find it fun that our fandom still has stuff like this happening, I hope that it doen't become a shrillfest. People take this show a bit too seriously... that's the way fandoms are I personally have always been circumspect to how it handles things, though I will admit I'm not someone who even seen half of them.
I have not particularly seen much interest on watching them but I think they have some kind of real take on what the characters can offer. The funniest part about this is that ponies STILL trigger certain parts of the internet. You wouldn't want to know if Twilight wins. All the hate wasted on ponies...for this. It's pretty comical to see those episodes of denial and shallow the pony pill once more.
>Even times when I agreed wiith their verdict I often find myself disagreeing with how they reached it. There analysis is arbitrary and sometimes pretty lacking, they don't seem to have consistent rules with how they handle different canons and what not. Still, the fandom has certainly had some fun times with there stuff that I certainly would never wish away, and I hope this will be more towards that end.
The problem gets here,when you make the battle too convenient for the battle in the sense that every battle is different,but you cannot notice or put certain patterns that they have to follow. This is what happens when you combine extremely unrelated characters in the same place(like any crossover). The fandom enjoyed the battle with Deadpool and Pinkie though.
>As for the match up itself. Raven should win if they have any sanity, though I never read any of her comics or watched teem titans for that mater and this is from both stuff I remember from what exposure I had of TT and a little googling on the side.
I literally haven't had any contact with the original Teen Titans. I have not watched and I only knew they existed when I ljrked a bit about the cartoon community.Basically,after noticing FiM and seeing how the animation industry goes.
>I will admit that TS is no joke. In a death battle both characters would be at their full natural strangth.But this is just a death battle between the two of them, so no EOH or alicorn magic (though her actually having some agressive/knowing how to fight when push comes to shove maybe given to the stats they give her) boost. The implications of how strong she has been protrayed were have certainly went downhill, season 5 and 6 give way more negative marks on her score card then positive on combat ability in a fight like that. Unless they do something stupid like only teen titans the tv show canon and then try to justify a TS victory from that, I don't see how Twilight can win this by any sane basis. Then again, I could be totally wrong and TS would make the most sense.
I guess the only way to see the reasons and establish who could is by watching it. Then,you find the reasons why by finding the reasons. If they are outlandish,then this serves no purpose. If Raven or Twilight wins and it fits,then you learn something else.
Twilight has abandoned mostly her powers on recent seasons. She is powerful but she hasn't used magic as you said, since season 4 or 5. We are in a situation where her powers have gone to where and back again to earlier seasons but with a higher level of standards. Alircorn magic,yet, not for battle purposes,more like defensive if anything. Tirek may have been a huge exception.
