[@samuelvincent557]

If I recall, from the old books, predators trained on the Xenomorph warriors. They were, one on one, considered starter prey. Tough and fast, but very predictable. A Queen, on the other hand, was a fight for a whole group or tribe. Where they might win, but expected to take heavy losses. However, the greatest foe to fight was the "Oomans". Humans were the prey you had to work up to to be allowed to go hunt them. They were, physically, weak and small. But were considered to be the trickiest, most innovative, adaptable, and resilient prey in the universe. It astounded the predators that a race so small and fragile could be such a threat when provoked. So they were accorded the, dubious, honor of being considered the most worthy foes. Only the seasoned warriors were permitted to go hunt them. And human trophies were prized.

[@Josue_the_goat]

Don't forget, that there has been a Yautja that has hunted an Engineer, I think that's their name. Now while they were shown as peaceful and somewhat aggressive at times they fear Xenos which Yautja hunt, granted Yautja know they are physically weaker than them, yet one has killed an engineer.

[@ethananderson663]

Xeno Queens were expected to be a fight for a tribe, but on the rare occasion where they were killed by a single or small group of predators it was an almost unbelievable honor. Even a 1 on 1 fight with a queen is terribly unfair for a pred, mostly because, just like humans, queens can think and plan to a degree much higher then standard drones and warriors, allowing them to plan and adapt.

[@ZillaTheTegu]

They're both very skilled fighters, but out of the suit, too, Samus had a Goku-style higher-gravity training-montage as her life, AND she underwent extensive surgery altering her DNA to make her faster and stronger at base.

it should also be noted that one of Boba's common rivals is Bossk. A character very similar to the predator in many ways. While a predator is certainly smarter than Bossk the way that they fight is almost identical down to the claws and thermal vision. The only practical difference is that the predator uses cloaking technology that you guys were quick to dismiss as Fett's visor beats it. Considering how often Boba fett defeats Bossk both in and out of canon and how the fights are so much of a joke that Fett doesn't bother killing bossk because he represents so little of a threat I think this fight should have been over much sooner. Considering the variety of super human aliens that fill the star wars galaxy fighting a Yautcha is just a tuesday to Fett.

Anyway, it'll be interesting to see how they portray that, how humans might have got a reputation like that without modern weaponry. Though I truly don't see how humans can be seen as more difficult to hunt than the Xenomorphs... I guess the intelligence to build traps and have projectile weapons, but it's not like the Xenomorphs aren't capable of learning simple things.

[@darthcloakedguy9726]

I mean, it makes sense. Xenomorphs are absolutely terrifying, but they're insects. They fight with natural weapons, using their instincts. They're predictable. You give a hunter the right training and gear, and the hunter will always win, barring some third variable. Humans? Most of us will go down without a fight, but most of us aren't worth hunting. But human action hero types? Unpredictable. Our technology may be inferior to theirs, but it's OURS, they don't know what a given device will do or how it will be used just from looking at it, and it only takes one mistake to end up dead or wounded.

I don't think they were implying Predators only hunt Xenos, just that a Xeno is one of if not the toughest thing they go against.

Boba's top prey outclasses Predator's, therefore Boba is experienced with tougher stuff than Predator.

@@DarkROSkull013 a better way it could have been put is like this. Every Yautja is know to have hunted at least one xenomorph. In their lifetime, individual Yautja could have hunted prey superior to Xenos but that would be going into individual predators and they went with a standard example.

[@myst1741]

The comment was about the "Strongest prey" Space Wizards vs Xenomorph being the toughest things the hunt. Surviving a fight with Vader or even just a decent Jedi is more of an accomplishment than killing even a Xenomorph queen. And Fett has defeated several of them. The average Xenomorph would likely not even be a major threat to some of the notable Clone or Storm Troopers. Let alone one of the best Bounty Hunters, Mandalorian's or Jedi/Sith. (Though outside of the Jedi/Sith I think only a handful of people could deal with experienced predators. Such as Boba or Cad Bane) That being said if the Predator's existed in the Star Wars canon, that'd be another story. They'd likely be MUCH stronger, and WAY more deadly. Just the awareness of Jedi/Sith alone would likely result in a VAST improvement to their weapons and armor. And god forbid one of them was force sensitive. xD

[@CrimBJJ]

I think it actually depends more on which predator they went with because each hunter prefers a type of arsenal and tactics.

@@scottlemiere2024 Well, more specifically, that didn't happen here because the predator's helmet was already destroyed before the fire came into play. I think the end result was fair. Out of 100 matches between Boba and a predator, Boba would probably win about half of them if he survives the initial attack. Since it wouldn't be much of a death battle if one of the contestants died to the first attack, we can probably assume that they would rule out those instances from the equation. That means this battle could go either way, but Boba is almost guaranteed to win if he survives long enough to find a weakness he can exploit, as other humans have managed to do the same with significantly fewer options in their arsenal. I was honestly expecting Boba to die with the predator in the self-destruct explosion, as I think that would have been a more fitting end.

[@tournesol99]

What this comes down to, in my opinion, is preferred engagement distance. Boba's arsenal is very much designed to be used at mid-long ranges. His blasters, missiles, grenades, flamethrowers, etc., all show this. His melee weapons are fairly standard and although he can hold his own in close-quarters fight, it typically just amounts to not dying rather than actually winning. A predator's arsenal is the opposite. They focus on melee and close quarters fighting more than anything else. From wrist blades to knives to staves, their weapons are specialised to fight enemies up-close, and are very versatile. The plasma scythe for example can cut through most armored opponents with easy, so Boba's armour wouldn't help much either. They also have ranged attacks, but their most effectives ones are typically middle range thrown weapons. Their true long range weapons are pretty basic all things considered, and are relatively weak in comparison. It is likely the plasma caster would be unable to penetrate Boba's armour at all. They can kill at a distance, yes, but they have far more experience in melee. Their tools mostly just counter each other and level the playing field. Neither has an advantage in this regard that could change the outcome. For example, the predator can use thermal vision, but Boba's flamethrowers and explosives would disrupt that, so the predator would be better off using something else. So, in a death battle Boba would take the victory because whoever can kill the other first is going to be based, more often than not, on who has the better ranged attacks as this means a much faster kill. Boba can just play keep away and score kill after kill without needing to get close. If he does get caught in a melee, the predator's experience and versatile weapons will get the edge. Boba may carry a lightsaber, but it is unlikely he'd be able to land a hit against a predator with centuries of combat experience specifically against melee opponents, while the predator would be able to kill him relatively easily. But with no real counter against Boba's ranged attacks or strong enough ranged attacks to match him, the predator is, in all likelihood, going to lose before he can close the distance.

[@mystic_absol7808]

[@Paulunatr]

Even if he didn't have one, it wouldn't make that much of a difference. Boba has so many meaningful advantages from his armor alone that this fight wouldn't even come down to a melee fight at all in many scenarios. His sensors counter stealth, his armor stops most of Pred's arsenal dead, his flamethrower still messes with Yautja thermal vision, and his jetpack and huge array of ranged weapons means Fett can fight at any range he pleases.

As soon as he lost his hand I knew he was gonna win. Star Wars right of passage right there 🤣

Finally a Death Battle that the person I routed for won!

[@WeaponXSigma]

Considering this is an elder yautja that Boba is fighting, I think Predator might win BUT not easily. Granted, if Boba Fett wins, I won't be surprised.

They read everything wrong.

He is not a elder predator

@@lizardguyNA yep

[@fugaciousbros5271]

This isnt an elder. And even if it was, age wouldnt be a disadvantage.

[@coolgamers2794]

THis wasn't even a elder yautja. Elder yautja looks more old, grumpy, muscular, and such.

The animations are so fluid and epicly well done. Amazing job team, this one is one of the best ones yet

[@davidbrun9197]

Great job. Loved the commentary

[@mechajason]

There was one thing that everyone else here forgot about the predators vision. If you hadn’t taked off his mask and went for the killing shot with his site, I can guarantee you he would’ve won the fight. But when he took off his mask, and he saw nothing but flames that cloaked Boba it was over

[@matthewstanley1521]

"Don't bother running, you'll only die tired." That line is AMAZING!

[@cosmicquestion9184]

Why die tired when you could die well rested?

[@ArmaTomicx]

I know right that’s what I said!

[@rexlumontad5644]

Whether the Predator wins or loses, he better use the disturbing mimic of Billy's laugh for the chilling effect.

[@josephsharp6221]

If that happens, it would only most likely happen during Predator’s self destruct sequence.

Great battle! This was one of the more "realistic" battles, compared to earth shattering strength and impossible time-controlling durability; this was a breath of fresh air.

[@valdish9620]

I like these kinds of fights more to be honest.

[@Someone90089]

I wanted to comment the same thing it felt so much better than seeing 2 universe lvl fighter's like vageta and thor use magic S*** and one is clearly faster by a lot yet still the other guy took the lead on the hit's

[@albertescobedo503]

These fight scenes are getting insanely more complex and detailed. It's amazing how far you guys have come since using the classic 16-bit sprites from the beginning of this show. Your dedication to improving your work is what keeps me coming back for more! 🤩

[@JimIBobIJones]

They hire random studios for the animation each episode, without really any consistency, its always been hit and miss and will continue to be.

[@gregorymirabella1423]

As an aside, using the heat of a lightsaber to cauterize a wound is rather brilliant.
