In this sword duel we have debuting combatant Galacta Knight, from the Kirby franchise going up against Ghirahim from the LoZ franchise.
Galacta Knight is a composite incarnation of his appearances and will be to scale against Ghirahim.
The battlefield is all of Yoshi Island.
Who wins?





















Where on Yoshi island?
I just noticed that one of the most iconic gravatars in the history of FactPile had just been replaced.
What?…no it hasn’t!
>.>
<.<
Your comment made me change it back..
I go with Ghirahim
What is the likely hood that Cross will participate in this match?
It is common knowledge I have the best gravatar in the history of FP.
At first glance I am going with Ghirahim. But I know nothing of Galactca Knight. Is he a stronger version of Meta Knight?
“It is common knowledge I have the best gravatar in the history of FP.”
-
….I don’t get it..
“….I don’t get it..”
How can you not recognize the sheer epicness of my gravatar? Sure, a blue dinosaur and an ODST are cool. But my icon not only has class, it has style!
I still don’t get it..
They start on opposite sides of the island.
-
Galacta, in a nutshell, is a more powerful Meta Knight.
Canonically, he has the title Greatest Warrior in the Galaxy.
He can attack with the lance at VERY high speeds and power, and hes got a bunch of special abilites like pillars of fire, lightning bolts, dagger projectiles, a shield laser attack, and a nigh unavoidable Mach Tornado.
-
Btw that pic of Ghirahims been used twice xD
I think Galacta has a good chance but I’ll wait for feats from both to decide.
This is a MUCH better battle than yesterdays, in any case….
Oh and thank you Hitman lol…
Ghirahim is actually very similar to Zant in his abilities.
-
His powers include teleportation, summoning monsters, shooting magic daggers, summoning up to 2 normal sized swords out of thin air, summoning 1 huge sword out of this air, creating barriers, making his skin harder then metal, arrow timing reflexes to name the notable ones.
And he can also use Skyward Strikes.
Sounds almost like a First Lord of Alera
Can Ghirahim laser time?
“Sounds almost like a First Lord of Alera”
What do you mean?
-
“Can Ghirahim laser time?”
Not that I know of, Ghirahim will have to rely on his armor skin to help him in this fight.
@NZ
well in the Codex Alera books by Jim Butcher author of the Dresden Files fyi. All humans are elemental users, by using creatures known as Furies there are wood air fire water earth and metal furies. First Lords have access generally to all. Wood allows intense archery skills that make Green Arrow look like a noob as well as sensing wood. Metal allows grafting metal to skin (and can make steel hard as diamond if needed) and sensing metal. However they can’t teleport or summon weapons. but arrow timing summoning monsters (furies which are part of power set so not outside help) are experts with blades and can snipe with a bow and arrow like a modern sniper with a rifle.
@GA
Ah.
Yeah wasn’t relevant was just an observation really
ANYWAY.
If Galacta pulls a move like the Mach Tornado, a kind of attack that aims for pretty much the entire body, would it hurt Ghirahim in his metallic state? I would think he would connect at LEAST once….
outskirtsbattledome.wikispaces.com/Character+Profile+-+Galacta+Knight
I dont think hes FTL….. lol
Nor do i recall teleportation….
I have never seen Galacta Knight in action, but I didn’t care for Ghirahim’s swordplay. None of his battles were difficult, and his attacks seemed so telegraphed.
-
It is curious, however, if Ghirahim can be harmed by any kind of sword, however. I don’t want to pull a Ganondorf here, considering I oppose the idea that Ganondorf is immune to anything like some think here on FP.
-
Anyway, Ghirahim, after the first battle, says that the only reason why Link even defeated him was because of the Goddess Sword. Of course, he never demonstrated that he was immune to any other weapon, so he’s just assuming things.
-
I’ll grant that Ghirahim’s defense is good, though. He can take sword strikes and block them with his own if they’re out, or he could grab his opponent’s sword if his opponent fails to pull the sword from his grip.
@Captain Xeno D.
Between you and me, the Yesterday incident wasn’t even a fight, it doesn’t count on either side’s track record, and that in itself is a fact.
@Lizard God
I’m here, if that’s what you’re asking, in fact I got a big old AK-74 I modified to not jam on me with me, actually.
If they could kindly provide examples and citations id be happy to accept it.
And then id promptly throw GK against Kharn .
@Proto-Mind
Ghirahim is formidable, I would know that even though I only played the Demo.
On the other hand, Galacta Knight is not a being to scoff off at, either, given how old the being is.
@Chuck inglish:
“outskirtsbattledome.wikispaces.com/Character+Profile+-+Galacta+Knight”
-
That looks like some bullshit. I click on Magolor’s information, and what do I see?
“Speed: FTL via powerscaling (one of the most powerful characters in Kirby)
Durability: At least mountain level+ likely much higher
Strength: 100+ tons”
-
Yeah right.
@Commander Cross:
“Ghirahim is formidable, I would know that even though I only played the Demo.
On the other hand, Galacta Knight is not a being to scoff off at, either, given how old the being is.”
-
You really think so just from the demo alone? I don’t know about you, but none of the three battles did he even come off as formidable.
Good to see you today Commander
@Captain Xeno D.
Between you and me for old time’s sake, I don’t see why not, either.
Shall I bring up how G.K can summon other knights?
@Admiral
I may be out for some blood and retribution, but I will go ahead and do so in a relatively cold and calculating manner rather than be open about it.
Meantime, shall we say more on both sides that we do recall?
“I’m here, if that’s what you’re asking, in fact I got a big old AK-74 I modified to not jam on me with me, actually.”
-
Hey, Cross. Fuck you. Just because Space Marine vs Harry Potter pissed you off there was no reason to bother admin until he locked it. Regardless of how you felt (and that was a shallow as shit move on your part, btw), there was still a debate going on. You shut that thread down out of -spite- and you didn’t even stop to consider whether other people were still using it. That was fucking bull shit on your part.
Can we stay on topic?
-
Anyway, if anyone is interested about what Fi has to say with respect to Ghirahim, you can check it out here: www.zeldawiki.org/Ghirahim
-
It may contain spoilers for those who have not yet played the game, or played through all of it. At least we’ll have canon to support Ghirahim. One must forgive the A.I., even if the character is considered intelligent. (I’m looking at you, SA-X.)
@ProtoMind
Alright, let’s do this.
@Lizard God
Not another word, I’m not in the mood for it.
@CommaderCross:
“Shall I bring up how G.K can summon other knights?”
-
Oh, that reminds me, Ghirahim can summon Bokoblins, Moblins, and Stalfos. Can he use those like the Omega Pirate could use the different troopers, even though it is considered “outside help”? It looks like this is protected by Rule #3.
-
And I remember that Ghirahim can create barriers.
www.youtube.com/watch?v=2bSBoe9SSZA
-
Ghirahim summoning hundereds of Bokoblins, Moblins, and Stalfos.
@CC and Sauro
Xeno told me to tell you guys to not argue here.
I thought I’d add a timer to it.
www.youtube.com/watch?v=2bSBoe9SSZA#t=02m31s
@Mad-Eye Morgan
Yes sir. (salutes)
So back to the fight at hand?
I’m thinking Ghirahim would have a better chance in this fight if he armors up and summons legions of monsters to distract and tire out Galacta Knight.
“I’m thinking Ghirahim would have a better chance in this fight if he armors up and summons legions of monsters to distract and tire out Galacta Knight.”
Which violates the rule against outside help, im sure.
“I have never seen Galacta Knight in action”
Ill fix that for you.

Keep in mind gameplay mechanics are a HUGE thing in the Kirby games.
I keep trying to count how many times he can jab in a second…..
i can guess 5-15…..
Wait can we really all them gameplay mechanics? I’m just asking because if we can then doesn’t that strip Kirby of a lot of his feats?
“Which violates the rule against outside help, im sure.”
Wouldn’t that be overruled if summoning is a natural ability of a character?
“Wait can we really all them gameplay mechanics? I’m just asking because if we can then doesn’t that strip Kirby of a lot of his feats?”
In regards to this match, one of several gameplay mechanics that has to be discounted is Galacta not guarding himself.
Hes proven to be a master swordsman, and that shield cant just be for show.
it seems rather silly that in reality he would just walk into attacks.
Oh that’s what you meant okay just wanting to figure out what you meant.
“Oh that’s what you meant okay just wanting to figure out what you meant.”
No problem.
“Not another word, I’m not in the mood for it.”
-
I don’t care. You had a match locked down that I was participating in because you didn’t fucking like the match.
Sauro, GTFO.
Seriously.
This isnt the place
Now, any more feats for Ghirahim?
Anyway, besides the monster summon Ghirahim can do, he also has extremely good reflexes demonstrated when he sidesteps out of the way of arrows and Skyward Strikes so fast his body doesn’t even appear to move as well as becoming a blur for a split second.
“Yeah right.”
-
My thoughts exatcly

-
This. It was blatant favoritism (he didn’t do that kind of thing in Kratos vs Skarbrand, Shepherd vs Boba Fett and Lobo vs Wonder Woman so yeah) on his part
“Destructive Capacity: At least mountain level+, likely much higher
Speed: FTL via powerscaling
Durability: Planetoid level (stronger than Marx)
Strength: 100+ tons”

Harry vs Marine was locked by Cross nagging admin…? Sounds a bit harsh…=/
===
“Shepherd vs Boba Fett ”
===
To be fair, ZomB corrected himself later.
===
“Harry vs Marine was locked by Cross nagging admin…?”
-
Yup. I just wonder why he didn’t do that to Kratos vs Skarbrand, Lobo vs Wonder Woman, Bass vs Dark Schneider and D, Dante, Alucard, Ryu Hayabusa and Kratos vs HST given those were spite threads
-
“To be fair, ZomB corrected himself later.”
-
I know, but he still ridiculously nerfed Shepherd at one point *shrug* meh
I hope Bass vs DS isn’t locked!!!!! That’d be awful!
“Not another word, I’m not in the mood for it.”
===
You wouldn’t like him when he’s mad cause He’s gonna nag admin till he bans you bro.
Can this get back on topic?
“You wouldn’t like him when he’s mad cause He’s gonna nag admin till he bans you bro”
-
DO EET!
-
Dante solos
“I know, but he still ridiculously nerfed Shepherd at one point *shrug* meh”
===
I think ZomB did that as some sort of “experiment”.
===
“You wouldn’t like him when he’s mad cause He’s gonna nag admin till he bans you bro.”

Lulz.
===
“Can this get back on topic?
”
===
Sorry, my fault here.
Not amused.
Get to it.
Is Ghirahims movement impeded in his metallic form?
Not that I know of.
“I think ZomB did that as some sort of “experiment””
-
He actually had the intention of a good match, but he got annoyed with the ‘EU iz not canon’ arguments so he said Fett was in his prime while Shepherd was Infiltrator Class with no heavy weapons. He later on made it fair again tho
-
“Lulz.”
-
Ditto
“Destructive Capacity: At least mountain level+, likely much higher
Speed: FTL via powerscaling
Durability: Planetoid level (stronger than Marx)
Strength: 100+ tons”
Everything seems about right considering kirby can crack a planet in half and marx is FTL.

Don’t get mad because you people miss things.
Welp….time to get this back on track.

Ghirahim busts a huge pile of rocks, jumps pretty high into the air, dashes foward at a very quick speed, and then breaks through Impa’s magic barrier with enough physical attacks.
Can we get back to the match that got hijacked weeks ago via infighting and trolling, sir?
Nobody wants to debate this it seems Cross.
@Officer N.Z
I blame the Hijacking of that thread, to be honest, sir!
Less than 24 hours before the war between DReager and Stealth with NZ involved on the side gets picked back up again……It was nice while it lasted.
@Jack
Aren’t you gonna post in this match and discuss between the two fighting sides in here?
@CC
Ignore the shit talker.
@Officer N.Z
Alright, fair enough.
At least we know what our plans are, once the fighting breaks out, right?
Always best to see if the Mods can be spoken with.
@CC
They won’t do anything unless I’m causing a problem.
-
Best to just discuss the actual debate at hand.
@Officer N.Z
Alright, fair enough.
Where to begin back on both sides, once more?
I’d say Xeno should add more here.
@Officer N.Z
Need me to contact him?
I was just meaning that people should start ignoring all of this so it will go away. Like the thread on the topia suggested. I really don’t know much about either but form what I do know Galacta Knight has stronger attacks right?
Maybe, but they can’t be beyond what Ghirahim can dodge, I hope.
Can Ghirahim use any of his magic to any benefit?
@Jack
That’s what we’re here to find out!

Displays the stength to hold back Link’s sword swings with only to fingers, teleports around, summons magic flying daggers to shoot at Link, summons a sword of his own out of thin air, and then sprints around at decent speeds.

Makes the skin on his armors “harder then any armor”, displays better useage of his swordsmanship and flying daggers, and summons 2 swords to fight with.

Ghirahim completely hardens his skin, creates floating platforms, summons a huge sword, fires discs of dark magic from his sword, and his only vunerable spot is the red diamond on his chest.
@Officer N.Z
These are nice!
You already watched them all?
@Officer N.Z
The parts involving Kirby Super Star Ultra for Galacta Knight, I definitely did.
So both sides have armies to fully bring to the table, right?
Ghirahim can literally summon an army in fact. Instantly.
@Officer N.Z
Good, he might need them if Galacta Knight attempts likewise, right?
GK can summon an army too?
@Officer N.Z
He was able to summon allies in his boss fight, last I checked.
Ah.
@Officer N.Z
Meantime, mind we get to the next page so there’s an option to skip the spitejack crap that pervaded the 90% of this match?
So anyone else still wants in on that match?
@Captain Xeno D.
Still there?
@Officer N.Z
Shall we carry on?
So anyone else want in on this fight?
Apparantly not….
