This fight will be close quarters combat, taking place in a small warehouse. While I’m sure Krauser could handle himself well in most situations, I don’t think he would last too long once Snake Eyes decides to end the match.
What say you?

Well, I call Krauser thanks to his wonderfully fucked up arm.

If no guns are allowed, the Krauser wins via superhuman physical attributes.

Krauser uses guns too.

Without guns! Krauser’s blade arm (when in proper position) can mitigate RPG’s for Christ Sakes.
The only reason I beat him in RE4 was because I had 180 rounds for the TEP (sub-machine gun), 30 shotgun rounds, about 20 pistol rounds, one RPG (didn’t do shit for me), three flash bangs, two incendiary grenades, one frag, enough herbs and meds to make you high for a month (only used half), the fact I’m good at quick-reaction button sequences, and I had upgraded my weapons to about three to four times the power of regular guns.
AND EVEN THEN, HE DIDN’T DIE.

I’m aware he uses guns. The description is “Close quarters combat” so it’s a battle with no guns.

Oops, sorry I didn’t notice that.

One question to consider is whether or not Snake’s blade can even harm Krauser considering I shot him in the face with my Uber-shotgun when he ran at me…. and he hardly even noticed.

Krauser is one my favorite boss fights. It’s just fun just running around gunning at each other and the knife fights. I remember one time I had the RPG and fired straight at him and he ended up back flipping over it. I was amazed and mad at the same time because I wasted a rocket launcher. I have to go with Krauser.

He back-fliped over your RPG? What the fuck!
He made me so angry that when I finally beat him down, Iwanted to do dance on his body; however, no only was he not dead, he activated a bomb… with a time limit for you to get out.
Still, he wins this pretty handily I say.

Yeah…I thought this would be more of an even match.
I mean Ada Wong was able to defeat Jack Krauser (I think if I remember correctly)

If Krauser has Las Plagas he wins IMO.

@ Orph
You were wrong, as to Krauser, Ada was only able to beat him after he was weakened by the protagonist.

Mate, I know nothing about Krauser, nothing at all, but I must say, Resolute Snake Eyes does exceed in my bad-assery list so far…..damn, catching a sword in your hand and not even screaming…….still, not siding with SE yet, seeing as I know nothing about Krauser.

Skip to 6:30 to see the devil arm and please keep in mind that the player in this vid has the most powerful gun in the entire game. Also keep in mind that Krauser doesn’t die from this.

If I can use a crossover as an example, I’m putting my vote for Snake Eyes. Why?
He took down frikkin transformers, by himself!!!!

I’m going with Snake Eyes. Why? Because he’s a better fighter and has better reach do to not be limited by a knife and a fucked up arm. Also take into consideration the fact that Snake Eye’s is faster and much more agile. Also since Snake Eyes is using swords instead of guns he could cut Krauser into pieces instead of putting holes in him that will heal cause the only way I see Krauser suriving being pumped full of lead is either game mechanics or he has a healing factor. But even if he has a healing factor seperating the head from the body is usually the way to deal with such characters and that is something Sanke Eyes is more then adept at doing.

@ M & M
So…… the fact that the fucked up arm is equal to the reach of a tradtional sword and the fact that Krauser can dodge bullets and use a quick attack to close the distance between him and his opponent (approimately 10 to twenty feet if memory serves) in the blink of an eye doesn’t faze you?
How about the fact that he is also a highly trained blade fighter and can use his arm as an impaler, shield, and battering ram. Or that he ulitilzes flash bangs in combat.
December 6, 2009
#22
That so called fucked up arm of his is strong enough to take a shotgun blast at point blank range.
December 6, 2009

Not to mention an RPG at the range of five feet….. I swear he was laughing at me at that point.

@Kenny C.-Put it like this. If Leon can keep up with him and he’s only a goverment agent then I Think Snake Eyes being a ninja be able to exceed him.
December 7, 2009
#25
A government agent who happens a highly trained close combat specialist (evidenced in his knife fighting skills and close encounters with zombies), a former S.P.F. cop, and is trained in a secert government agency that transforms him into – “one of the top agents in the world.”

Game mechanics don’t count when evaluating these scenarios, otherwise the the Trees in the Halo Universe would be the toughest organisms in existence. After all, how can you supposedly tank a dozen .45 magnum shells to the face yet suffer grievous and somewhat fatal wounds when slashed with a combat knife (which is the fastest way of beating Krauser, for all those players who wasted their ammo on him)?
From what we can reliably gather, Krauser possesses incredible reflexes and dexterity (his knife fight with Leon is indicative of that), has frighteningly fast regenerative abilities (can heal deep knife wounds within an hour), can possibly regenerate from a state of total or near death, he displays the ability to pull off powerful back flips to reach platforms or ledges more than six feet from the ground behind him and possesses both the strength and acute awareness to launch a heavy steel girder in one hand with almost unerring accuracy (he would have hit Ada if she had not seen it coming).

@Kenny C.-That’s all dandy but Snake Eyes has an arsenal of Japanese martial arts styles under his belt and numerous Japanese sword styles which quite frankly is superior to Krausers. You can be the top agent of the world but up against a master of most Japanese martial arts who has honed his skill in battle against enemies armed with futuristic weaponery a vast quantity of which were automatic yet comes out unscathed your not all that impressive.
The only edge Krauser trully has is his durability and healing factor which can be negated via decapitation. We know for a fact he’s not stronger or faster then Snake Eyes since Leon was able to hold his own against him. We know he’s not more well trained since once again Leon held his own against him. And Snake Eyes is Leon’s superior in every way. So it’s really not looking good for Krauser.

“That’s all dandy but Snake Eyes has an arsenal of Japanese martial arts styles under his belt and numerous Japanese sword styles which quite frankly is superior to Krausers.”
Oh no, not japanese martial arts. Surely he’s doomed now, because as we know the japanese are the greatest fighters, blacksmiths and all round warfare experts in the known universe…
And if that wasn’t enough of a /sarcasmmash for you, i’ll throw in a couple of exclamation marks and a mention of the spartan laser as well.
Both Snake Eyes and Krauser are outstanding with their chosen weapons. So lets look at the advantages of either person.
Usually, sword user have a huge advantage over knife users. Range. A sword user is able to bring his weapon to bare with as much speed as a knife user, and with far greater range, meaning that he’s able to make a killing blow before his opponent can even get close enought o scratch., the problem here is that Krauser heals at an exponential rate, meaning that a killing blow will have to be more than just once across the arteries. Anything less that full dismemberments is likely useless. Krauser on the other hand, is strong enough to tear snake eyes to pieces even without his weapons, and he’s fast enough that the range advantage of a sword could well be completely negated…
To me, if what people have been saying is accurate its Krausers advantage all the way.
December 7, 2009
#31
Not to mention that Krauser already has a full arsenal of weaponry at his disposal. Although just using a knife would be cool enough or better yet he could use his bow in this fight and anyone who has played Resident Evil 4 Mercenaries knows how powerful that is.

“This fight will be close quarters combat, taking place in a small warehouse.” ~Admin
Using weapons outside CQC would be a disadvantage in this fight since the warehouse is small and weapons like the Bow and Arrow require range to be effective. He needs to attack fast and quickly and I believe Snake Eyes has the advantage.
Megaraptor18’s example at 3:45 has him winning against a guy with a machine gun.

“The only edge Krauser trully has is his durability and healing factor which can be negated via decapitation”
because snake eyes knows that right? nope sorry friend, but snake eyes is likely to go for the more discreet killing tactics, like a ninja would, and in so will seal his doom against his much stronger and about as agile, with a weapon that can stop bullets and cut people up (these are also advantages you skipped)

At SS: “because snake eyes knows that right? nope sorry friend, but snake eyes is likely to go for the more discreet killing tactics, like a ninja would, and in so will seal his doom against his much stronger and about as agile, with a weapon that can stop bullets and cut people up (these are also advantages you skipped)”
But remember the rules states that they both know about the other. So Snake Eyes should know about those as well.

@Jwlynas-Who said anything about Japanese being the best at anything? And for the record I believe European manufacturing to be superior to Japanese. They are good with electronics but when it comes to engineering I’d give it to Europe everytime. As for the martial arts part once again who said Japanese martial arts were superior? I just said that Sanke Eyes knows more martial arts styales then Krauser since he knows most of the Japanese and some American martial arts while Krauser most likely know only what the military and agencies have taught him so please stop jumping to conclusions. Its an insult to me and yourself
Now some claim that Krauser may be stronger and faster then Snake Eyes but during the quickktime events when Krauser faced Leon was not only able to keep up with every strike Krauser through but also when Krauser had Leon on th floor and was trying to press a knife through him Leon not only held the knife off from a claimed superiorly strengthned oppenent but was also able to wrestle him off. If Krauser is strong enoughto rip men in half then he should have been able to run Leon through with no trouble at all since he is claimed superior in strength and was in the dominent possision to use that strength.
@ss-I thought when they go into these matches they were aware of the oppenents weaknesses because if that is not the case thenn people should all together on this sight stop claiming a character can win because they can exploit the others weakness. Anyway one slash across the neck is all Snake Eyes needs to win cause even if it doesn’t take the head Krauser would still be stunned from having his throat cut which would set him up for the final blow since Snake Eyes has the advantage of range.

@ midnite – “That’s all dandy but Snake Eyes has an arsenal of Japanese martial arts styles under his belt and numerous Japanese sword styles which quite frankly is superior to Krausers.” Made it seem like you were suggesting that Japanese martial arts were better than… I’d guess German Military arts, from Krausers name. And similarly with the equipment.
“Now some claim that Krauser may be stronger and faster then Snake Eyes but during the quickktime events when Krauser faced Leon was not only able to keep up with every strike Krauser through but also when Krauser had Leon on th floor and was trying to press a knife through him Leon not only held the knife off from a claimed superiorly strengthned oppenent but was also able to wrestle him off.

This is the same Leon Kennedy that Punched a boulder off of a cliff in the latest resident evil… I think we can safely say he’s stronger than most people have any right to be

This was also done when Krauser didn’t have his f*cked up arm activated, which dramatically changes his fighting style to a much more direct and forceful approach.

I have know idea why people don’t seem to get game mechanics at all. It’s like Albert Wesker vs. MC all over again. Look the reason why Krauser wasn’t able to rip Leon in half because… wait for it, IT WOULD END THE GAME! Quit trying to use that as an argument, it never works.

@TheSorrow-It was during a quicktime event not gameplay there’s a fundamental difference. quicktime events are interactive movies to show things unable to be accomplished during gameplay do to the engine. As such these events and in-game movies are a good way to show a characters true capabilites.
@Jwlynas-I admit when re-reading that post it seemed a little baised towards Japan. But no one fighting style is or ever will be the best which is why a person who is advance in multiple fighting styles generally beats aperson who’s mastered a single style since they lack the ability to adapt. And I don’t think Leon was in the latest game that was Chris. I haven’t played 5 yet but from gameplay videos it seems like Chris has either been pumping some serious iron or he’s on roids cause he looks like a gears of war character.

i have to hand this to krauser. and for the records (everyone get your pens ready) krauser didn’t just up and kill leon during the knife scene because he was toying with him and he would’ve kill leon had it not been for ada shooting the knife from krauser’s hand. and krauser’s strength IS heavily increased when he activates his arm enough so that he could make Chris redfield look like a pansy ( and yeah, it was chris who punched a boulder). even if snake eyes has a sword and more fighting styles they’re still no match for krauser’s amped up arm,flash grenades and his superhuman strength. (remember his melee attacks from the mercenaries?) so all in all, this fight is definitely a krauser win. sorry snake eyes i knew thee well.
