Determining Matches

So, we’ve had the question asked of us many times, how we determine which matches get made. So, here’s the post on our twisted logic of getting to that decision.

First, we have some ideas about what we think you want to see. Some of that is based on the comments left in other posts, as well as the battle requests.

Next we add them to out ever-growing list of battle requests already made. We decide the next one to get picked based on the discussions taking place on this site, and other sites as well. If a movie is coming out with a requested character, we may hold off until the movie is going to open and post a match then.

We also review the comments on this site closely – and try to publish matches that include topics that people are responding to.

Another factor is freshness. We like to purposely add characters that may not be as mainstream – there are fans all around the world who are just as passionate about their favorite characters, and you just never know how that will turn out. Some have failed miserably, while others were unexpected surprises.

And the last factor is sometimes we have our own agenda to push, so a certain match gets published. It’s not pressure from advertisers, instead we have personal favorites that we want to see more of.

So there you have it. If you want to see a certain match, request it, talk about it and even email us – we’ll get it done.

    How about the killer 7 vs the turks

    admin, you may be hesitant on this but read up on the killer 7 and you will be blown away like I am with the game. It’s a cult classic that everyone needs to play at some point.

    I would like to see a battle between (Star Treks) a Federation’s heavily armed away team VS (Star Wars) a squad of Imperial Stormtroopers.

    12 men vs 12 men

    No hero characters in this fight. No Jedi, no Sith, no Q, and no Vulcan. This would be between two squads of men

    No air support, no tanks or APCs, and no starship support. Just man to man

    Each squad can have one officer, one medic, one sharpshooter, one specialist, and maybe two heavy weapon experts and the rest are just standard troopers or crewmen.

    i think there should be a battle of alex mercer from prototype and venom from spiderman and i would also like to see a kind of universe war between the symbiote invasion in spiderman web of shadows and the virus from prototype. that would be a good match especially if it included the heros from both games. and i can’t post comments on the battle requests page and i can’t signup for that newsletter on the mainpage please help.

    I have another idea it’s a What If

    What if the Halo Universe merge with the Killzone Universe

    Would the UNSC and ISA join forces to defeat the Covenant

    Would the Helghast join with the UNSC and the ISA to defeat the Covenant or will they try to team up with the Covenant and destroy their old and hated enemy

    Would the Covenant allow the Helghast to join the Covenant or have an alliance with them.

    Admin, I think Master Chief vs the arachnid horde (from starship troopers) would be awesome. TThink about it; MC as beaten the covenant and flood, now can he beat the arachnids? it has a creature that not everyone knows about to tend to their fans, but also has a character that everyone knows and loves.

    Stay tuned…Admin

    i posted this one on my the other page, but it emailed it to me so i dont know if i fudged up or if it actually worked. (so please forgive if this is a double post)

    Well i always wanted to see a match up between the molecule man and galactus.
    personally i think that galactus might be able to take this, but then again the
    moleculeman is damn near omnipotent…..so i guess ill leave it up too you to
    decide.
