Dark Light
Link & Cloud Vs Kratos & Dante
Link & Cloud Strife Vs Kratos & Dante

As much as I enjoy the Zelda games, and the Link character, in this match it means little. For me, this match will be over in a few minutes as Kratos pummels Link while Cloud and Dante dance around. Then once Link is vanquished, the double team will be too much for Cloud.

What say you?

    Dante was never canonicly killed in anything. He was hurt. He has resurection orbs, sure, but those only work three times. He has 3 invulnerability items, but that could be Dispelled with Cloud’s dispell spell. And he has been seen to be capable of dieing in each and every game he is in. It is 100% possible for Dante to die if hit repeatedly with a sharp pointy object. In the DMC canon it just hasn’t happened enough times before he could recover from it.

    Every time he heals it takes some energy out of him, which is seen when his life meter goes down. He heals the wound but the energy it takes to heal is deminished. Once that reserve of energy is gone, he can no longer heal and he then dies.

    STOP CLAIMING THAT HE IS TRUELY IMMORTAL AND INVULNERABLE! DANTE CAN DIE!

    Additionally he has been beaten.Vergil beat him once in DMC3, once in DMC1, and once more in the DMC3 Manga if I recall correctly. Mundus beat Dante down at the end of the 3rd Mundus fight, only Trish’s interferance allowed Dante to survive that one. Sid, with the power of Abigale, beat Dante in the Anime. Even Nero surprised Dante and managed to impale him. Dante is not unbeatable. He is not unkillable. He is not invulnerable (3 exceptions but they do not last long and never for more than 60 seconds at a time without the use of items).

    Resurection even means: to rise from the dead. Your use of the word impies that he has died several times.

    I give the eighth nomination! Antiheroes are cool and all, but Link and Cloud are just better characters and stronger in battle, and they both understand the importance of teamworkd better than Dante or Kratos.

    Cloud wins.
    Dante is a close second.
    Link would get BULLET spammed. Plus Dante can teleport in front of enemies, has Force Edge equipped, his Devil Trigger when maxed give him about 15 – 20 seconds in a super fast and strong mode. Can you cast a spell if your being shot everytime you try by someone with super reactions + perfect accuracy?
    Plus Dante’s insta use items refilling health and DT not to mention those yellow orbs that ressurect you from where you died (I think)
    Kratos is a laughable pushover here a polymorph or time freeze or just disarming and beheading him quickly should work, all Kratos has is super strength he can’t jump high and Cloud can jump about half a mile up lol.
    Any limit break and Kratos is dead. Link lacks the strength to deal with Dante’s rush at him but Cloud certainly can and Cloud is better reactions, strength, power and skill.
    If you shoot fire and lightning at things why would ya need a gun?
    Gravity + Polymorph Dantes dead.
    And Link n Cloud understand teamwork. I nominate T1

    link and cloud will vanish if kratos use the power of the blade of olmypus he will get the power of the heavens and earth.dante can kill any one he will only use the force edge and the amulet of his mother and father. link and cloud will be weak if dante throw them the neo generator. no one can stand a chance to a god of war and a devil that can kill ZEUS and satan.haha!

    Joshua, read my posts. I’ve addressed most of what you brought up. I’ve proven that Dante isn’t an actual immortal. Dante can be murdered; he can die. Kratos being able to kill Zues means squat when your enemy isn’t Zues. Additionally it is plain impossible to fight when you have been polymorphed into a frog, which is something Cloud can do to Kratos and Dante. With that done neither member of Team 2 can make any kind of threatening offensive. Link could easily step on them and they would die.

    Dante wouldn’t have access to the Neo Generator for this fight because it isn’t part of his usual equipment, oh and it would start killing him before he could do anything with it. Current incarnation means Dante doesn’t have that. Heck, Dante lost the Neo Generator minutes after collecting it. It is not a factor in this fight.

    Kratos’s ability with the Blade of Olympus is limited. He hasn’t shown himself capable of unleashing its full abilities so there is no reason to assume that he is capable of doing so now. As it stands, Kratos’s ability with the Blade of Olympus is that the Blade is just a big, effective, and powerful sword instead of an end-all-be-all weapon like it is when Zues weilds it.

    Nothing Team 2 has can stop Cloud from putting them in a specific time stop, and neither can prevent or coutner polymorph, and once polymorphed both are extremely vulnerable. Team 1 has this in the bad within seconds.

    i see many flaws with what you say. first off cloud has to have that materia (which if you go by most recent incarnate, he doesn’t even use magic), two you have no idea if cloud’s magic can even effect kratos or dante, after all dante is half demon, demons aren’t phased by non-light magic in just about every video game there is except final fantasy. plus in the time cloud would take to cast that dante could warp in and bullet spam his face thus killing him leaving link to face the two alone, same instance if he tried time stop. PLUS let’s not forget dante is in fact nearly unkillable after DMC4, gameplay is not cannon so it is not a factor. and the fact that with yamato (DMC4 again) he can attack anything from any distance away (remember that hell gate he slashed in half?) i’m not saying dante is invincible cause in his current state he’s not, but, in his current state he could whoop cloud or link alone, them together just means he’ll have more of a challenge, or he can just let kratos handle link while he pwns the crap outta cloud.

    Link is no push over chances are hes gonna find an item before he ever meets Dante and kratos to specifically beat dante since dante would be the only reason T2 would win. Kratos would merely be a distraction that Link would take care of while cloud takes dante. Link carries several tons of gear which gives him a weight advantage of kratos and dante. Link still moves extremely quick with the tons of gear not to mention his master sword arrows of light are instant kills on dante as they are extremely effective on evil and seal evil. Link with deity mask can beat both dante and kratos at the same time as it fires a lightning bolt that goes straight for the enemy and was unblockable. Lets not forget navi there is no sneaking up on link and he learns weaknesses dante’s would be about any weapon link has as they are all very effective against dante. Rupee armor that protects him for a decent amount of time with 1000 rupees. Link also has magic that always effects him that reduces damage to him. Link could easily take either kratos or dante though Kratos would be by far the easiest for him. Also he has a shield that absorbs magic and energy nothing is gonna make it past that. Also the shield bumb knocks attack and projectiles back at enemies.If link falls he can be revived up to 4 times by fairies as he usually has 4 bottles.
    Cloud is also very fasts and he teleports too as seen in his Omni slash. Also the materia would make kratos look stupid dante could avoid this but its gonna be tough. Cloud would most likely go straight for dante as link would be a clear victor against kratos. If link goes down pheonix down.
    Dante he can teleport slow time hes a demon and he revives. Dante would probably go for the easiest target in his mind which would be cloud as cloud appears to be unable to block any attack with no shield.
    Kratos has the blades of olympus and is half god as it were. Not that being a god would even bother any of the others as their main villains are much more powerful than zues. Kratos is probably the worst choice for this team as he is slow and not that strong hes gonna hold dante back and get them both killed.

    Link and cloud win its clear

    *epic facepalm*
    this is current incarnations, not composites genius. meaning it’s spirit tracks link and advent children cloud vs god of war 2 kratos and DMC4 dante. team 1 is screwed.
    dante can chronomanipulate
    light arrows won’t even hit dante, he’s a bullet timer.
    link is tiny, and slow because of his small stature.
    for cloud to use omnislash he has to hit the opponent first. so he’d have to go after kratos.
    link would get easily bullet spammed, as would cloud while he fights kratos.
    not to mention dante has royal block, which blocks ANYTHING!
    so i’m sorry but team 2 wins.

    “this is current incarnations, not composites genius. meaning it’s spirit tracks link and advent children cloud vs god of war 2 kratos and DMC4 dante. team 1 is screwed.

    Nice double standard there. In DMC 4 Dante is incapable of altering time without a bias battlefield. On top of that Cloud’s current incarnation is actually Crisis Core, and at that point he didn’t have any of the awesome materia that I’ve been saying that he had. On top of that though Cloud DID have access to his stash of materia after Advent Children so he could have used it then.

    You also forgot that Cloud is a bullet timer… and he blitzed a faster bullet timer and won because of his overwleming speed.

    This match has changed drastically since I last reconsidered it, and Team 1 lost pretty much every single item they carried. So woopie dee freaken do for massive handicap matches.

    There is also the question if “current incarnation” means most recently released or furthest along the timeline. If it is the former than Team 2 stomps Team 1; if it is the latter than Team 1 stomps Team 2.

    double standards? i think not. dante is the same throughout all 4 games, he retains all his abilities, he just chooses not to use them, thats called CIS last time i checked.

    and ok i guess, overlooked crisis core, although i don’t recall cloud being a bullet timer, i remember him using his huge sword to block a bullet but other than that his only bullet timer ability is omnislash V5. plus if you’re talking about sephy, he’s not a bullet timer either, as neither have shown bullet timer capabilities. unless you can provide a source?

    ” i think not. dante is the same throughout all 4 games, he retains all his abilities, he just chooses not to use them, thats called CIS last time i checked.”

    Oh? So Cloud is just looses everything because he is Cloud then? That too is a double standard because as of Dirge of Cerberus (furthest in the timeline) Cloud has access to pretty much everything, including his materia.

    As for the bullet time feats, well you must have missed it when Cloud DODGED AND BLOCKED BULLETS in AC. Sephiroth was faster than Cloud at that point, which also makes him a bullet timer. And if we dabble into the game mechanics of FF7 Cloud’s evasion stat (or whichever stat contributes to evasion; I forget the exact details) allows him to dodge bullets in the game.
