Ok to anyone wondering why these are being reuploaded is 1: rooster teeth being shut down means all their shows are either in limbo or done. 2: the people of screw attack like Ben and chad are trying to keep everything afloat to they can regain their footing. 3: They’re uploading the battles to keep the algorithm at bay. There’s a void left by rooster teeth amd it will be filled we as fans just need to be kind and supportive.

[@kinjorex101]

I think the third one in particular is a big reason. Apparently the lack of animation uploads near the start of 2023 ended up hurting their view counts in Season 10, so they're releasing these to fill the gap a bit.

[@bosskaiju4834]

I think they started those reuploads before the shutdown of Rooster Teeth was announced

[@GigaLigma]

I'm sure this is also just a good way for them to earn extra money while they don't have anything new ready to upload. And people always upload "death battles but just the battle part" anyway, so Death Battle may as well just do it themselves.

@adnan_honest_jihadist5775 Wolverine.... has not just Universal ... but HIGH universal STRIKING Strength??? ... so you're saying he could punch as hard as the likes of SSG Goku, World Breaker Hulk exc??? Gimme the drugs you're on Also Raiden doesn't need "Universal Striking" to go through the Adamantium skeleton, as not only shown in the Misty Knight comic but also a Reed Richard comic that ultra high frequency can bypass Adamatium or even liquefy it, Reed applied it to a P L A S T I C K N I F E and it manage to etch into the Adamantium, so no doubt a Carbon Titanium steel Sword with same properties swung by a guy that has a estimated swing strength of 1,000 tons can cut through it .... AND ALL THIS DOESNT EVEN MATTER cause he killed Wolverine in Zandastu mode, meaning even assuming he can't cut through the skeleton ITSELF, he could slice in-between the vetebre in his neck where his brain stem is ,by pass the skeleton all together.

[@John-bj1zx]

One thing I think people don't understand about Logan, his bones may be covered, but his joints can't be, otherwise he'd be immoble, so you could easily severe his head from his body, his arms from his body, and legs from his body with reletive ease by simply targeting the points of connection for each limb and his head.

[@Devilwolf-jj5lq]

That's makes the reason Raiden winning makes sense

[@Flutterbutt225]

could Raiden's sword cut through Logan's skull like he did in this one, though? 🤔

[@doshep_hegex]

​@@Flutterbutt225 his sword is made out of a vibrating alloy, and in the marvel universe there's a character with a really similar kind of weapon (arguably weaker) that is able to melt/cut through basically any metal, adamantium included

[@carrosivejones1969]

Yes actually: weapons that vibrate to break molecular bonds, like raiden's sword, work rather well against adamantium. Just ask Misty Knight

[@GigaLigma]

To be fair, you say "with ease" like that kind of precision is normal. Even in a setting like Marvel, most characters don't have that kind of exact precision with their attacks unless they have a specific power or skill giving them that edge. Raiden meanwhile is a cyborg with enhancements that do this for him... not to mention he has a sword that is known to cut otherwise impenetrable metals through vibrating at high frequencies, and similar attacks have gone straight through vibranium before. It's actually kind of a hard counter matchup, Raiden's like Wolverine except equipped with ways to counter Wolverine.

[@exumbra1399]

If there's something I love, it's that all of almost all of Raiden's moves are actual combos he uses in-game.

Generally speaking no. Cyborgs are almost exclusivly individuals that are "enhance by artificial devices that relies on feedback" i.e. machinery. However some older definitions do include mechanical enchancments as well. If we go by the og definition however, then any individual that is enhanced by "synthetic parts" are cyborgs. Now that is an outdated way of defining cyborgs but by that standard Wolverines bones would count, and as such he could be called a cyborg.

[@VoiceFGC]

@@adnan_honest_jihadist5775 Dude... you know that in the case of this battle, "Speed and Lifting Strength" as you said are 2 of the most important factors in determining the winner here, right? As another comment said, Wolverine's bones are covered in adamantium, but his joints aren't, otherwise he literally wouldn't be able to move. Decapitating him wouldn't realistically be all that hard even for an athletic man with a sword like the one Raiden has, and Raiden is FAR stronger than the average man. What are you going on about "he has to have HIGH UNIVERSAL STRIKING STRENGTH", like, buddy, just no. Wolverine doesn't have super crazy feats like some of the other X-Men, and certainly nothing anywhere remotely close to Raiden's, which involve many feats with light-speed reactions, RIDICULOUS super strength with the fact that he lifts Metal Gear Ray and the arm from Armstrong's mech from the worst point possible, and just swings them around like it's nothing. Let's also throw in the fact that he cuts through buildings and mechs with a SWORD that are built for nuclear warfare. Combine that with the fact that Raiden kills people just like Wolverine in terms of toughness throughout the ENTIRE game of Rising, and I don't see how you could deny his victory unless you are wicked high on some copium. It's ok if you just like Wolverine more than Raiden, nobody is trying to say that Raiden is "ObJeCtIvElY cOoLeR" that Wolverine, but there is absolutely no way that Wolverine could be Raiden in a fight, and that is just a fact with the currently established lore of both, and it was the same 8 years ago when this was made.

[@dangerman1013]

I still remember the general audience response to this matchup being announced was everyone being hyped for Wolverine and wondering who was this edgy cyborg. Of course a lot more people now know about Raiden mainly due to Revengeance’s memes, but everyone was genuinely on Wolvie’s side for the debate. So it must’ve come as a shock to everyone when he finally ended up meeting his match. This fight is an absolute trip. Despite being one of the show’s earlier 3D fights, the animation still looks great for its time and the action is a blast to watch, with both fighters tearing each other apart and leaving a mark almost every time. The voice acting is also on point, with Tim Paige giving a solid performance as Raiden and Xander Mobus sounding almost identical to Cal Dodd from the 90s Cartoon. Not to mention this fight contains one of the most brutal and suspenseful deaths of the entire show. Overall, while not on every level, this fight still holds up today and is one of the definitive standouts from Season 2.

[@kainingyao7873]

This battle was a pretty good one for its age. Though it was a Season 2 episode, it is of relatively high quality, something that is now characteristic of later seasons of Death Battle. The fight scene was in really well animated 3D, and demonstrated both combatants' abilities and fighting styles real good. Not to mention that this matchup was among the closest ones in the show.

[@kainingyao7873]

The only nitpick about the outcome is about how Raiden's high-frequency blade can cut through Wolverine's adamantium skeleton. While adamantium is vulnerable to high-frequency vibrations that weaken molecular bonds, which would initially make logical sense, Raiden's HF blade would need a frequency at least as much as Antarctic Vibranium to cut adamantium, and they didn't tell what the frequencies are for both of them.

[@SilverBlazer565]

Exactly I agree with the outcome. This death battle video was meant to explain argument why Raiden would cut through Wolverine. And yes they actually got it right with the stats. This is the closest match up ever.

[@DavidGowers]

My ONLY gripe here is that I don't think it's any more possible to dice up Logan's skull than it is the rest of his skeleton. Other than that, considering I know nothing about Raiden, I'm good with this ending. It's canon AFAIK that the only guaranteed way to kill Logan is to take his head off, so...

[@sary7154]

I mean, Adamantium being the toughest metal around implies its superior durability to carbon nanotube metals, which are common in Rising: Revengeance. A singular CNT, roughly half a nanometer in length, needs around 60,000 joules to destroy. Judging by the thickness of the average adult male's cranium is approximately 6.75 millimeters, which equates to 6.75 million nanometers, doubling the number (as 1 CNT = 0.5 nanometers) gives us 13.5 million CNTs to break through. So could Raiden cut through that? Let's see. Raiden was capable of holding back approximately 300,000 tons with one hand in Metal Gear Solid 4. This is different from his feats in Rising: Revengeance, where he suplexed EXCELSUS and threw RAY; the former weighing around 15,000 and the latter weighing around 1,000 tons respectively. These three feats are rather inconsistent, though Raiden tanking the destruction of EXCELSUS was approximately 180 kilotons of TNT. Raiden needs to attack with at least 322,014 tons of TNT to slice through carbon nanotube armor in roughly equal thickness to a human male cranium. However, while this may seem impossible for Raiden, it's definitely not, at all. Raiden was at best winded and shocked by Armstrong's ruthless assaults and the destruction of EXCELSUS rather than severely injured. Within moments, he was back on his feet, ready to dance. This gives me the impression that Raiden is far more durable, and given his parity with Armstrong, far stronger than needed to keep pace with Logan. While I'm uncertain if Raiden can cut through Adamantium or not, I am positive he will never need to actually slice through it. We know the blades in Rising electrically sever bonds between atoms and molecules, thus negating durability. Obviously though, the higher the strength-to-density ratio of a given material, the harder it will be for HF blades to force through, given Raiden's struggle with Armstrong and his defeat at the hands of Excalibur in his respective DEATH BATTLE. However, we also know Ripper Mode boosts Raiden's speed and strength massively, to the point where Raiden can statue rain and cut through large buildings respectively. So in short: While his base strength alone is in question, his Ripper Mode massively boosting his power overall, on top of the Murasama, will almost certainly cut through Adamantium with enough force. Hope this helps!

[@falros7402]

To explain this: Raiden uses a high frequency blade which weakens the molecular bonds of a metal. the question posed is whether this would work with adamantium and surprisingly yes because of a obscure character with a augmented arm that vibrates at a high frequency just like Raiden's sword and they show it working on adamantium all Raiden needed to do was strike enough times with a decent amount of strength to do so

How About Vilgax VS. Megatron (Ben 10 VS. Transformers ) Death Battle Instead of Frieza VS. Megatron (Dragon Ball VS Transformers) Death Battle

one thing i wouldve liked to see here in hindsight would be the high frequency blade bending or cutting logan's claws. that would make the final dicing of his head make more sense and the explanation with misty knight more fulfilling.

Such a badass battle.

You may not be able to admit it, but that doesn't change the facts.

[@absolutionveil8632]

​@@donovanhadley2209 Destroying his head would have ended the fight, but it wouldn't kill Wolverine. As long as at least a single drop of blood remains he will regenerate from it. I can see why Raiden wins the fight here, but if this was an all out war he wouldn't ever really win.

[@zentrum9042]

Raiden is just better

[@FabledHeroes3351]

The most debatable one ever sorry but I still don’t see the Murasama being able to cut through Adamantium as it’s not Antarctic Vibranium 3:33 it ended for me right here Wolverine wins

[@merlinthestrange8543]

The argument is that it functions similar to Antarctic Vibranium, due to the HF Blade being able to vibrate at a high enough frequency to cut apart something on a quantum scale to break apart molecular bonds.

[@eclipsethezorua1905]

I dunno, They made a good case for it. My main question is whether Raiden could actually get past the healing factor.

This death Battle is so inaccurate. They downplay Wolverine too much.

[@zentrum9042]

It’s very accurate. Raiden would easily win.

[@pattouco]

@@zentrum9042 nope at all. Wolverine harm heralds. He should destroy Raiden the moment he attack him

[@untitledperson6162]

It's pretty debatable

[@pattouco]

@@untitledperson6162 if Wolverine can survive Spider Man, Thor and Hulk. He should survive Raiden easily

[@John-bj1zx]

@@pattouco That's not an accurate statement. Just because X can beat Y doesn't mean Z can beat X. Hulk has killed the literal entire Marvel Universe in the past, so has literal Punisher, and normal human. Raiden's sword cuts the same as Murasama, an in universe sword, and Logan has stated it can cut through Adamantium with ease, Raiden is far stronger and faster with his sword than Murasama, it'd take a single strike for his High Frequency sword to sever Logan's neck and a single strike to destroy his brain. Logan has never regenerated from the destrution of his brain except with the help of the Crystal of Ultimate VIsion when a drop of his blood landed on it giving him access, temporarily, to Cosmic Power.

❗❗❗ATTENTION: as you all know, rooster teeth is ending, this means that the shows can also end, and unfortunately death battle is one of them, the creators of death battle are trying to put everything in order so that everything goes well, so please, be polite and patients, because the creators are trying to rise up and they need our support.

[@crimsonzone8984]

Sharp take, but I like raiden's fight in here more than the excalibur episode. It's got really great choreography and showcases raiden's fighting style pretty well (or more specifically 🦿).

[@majorfanboy2005]

I think they posted this because of the recent release of X-Men '97. But I would have recommended Magneto vs Tetsuo. But hey it is quite nice to see a battle that is not from the more recent seasons to have its own fight only video. Next week do Godzilla vs Gamera due to Godzilla X Kong: The New Empire coming out next week.

[@Ryder.Draconis]

I don't think wolverine is nearly capable of fighting as fast as this animation puts him at.

[@skeety7883]

Yeah, as cool as the fight is, it’s safe to say that Raiden’s sword would never get through Wolverine’s adamantium skeleton lol

[@RedLSBtheTitaniumStorm]

And yet, The Murasama can fact do it, or at least separate Logan's head from his body, especially with Blade Mode and just his SKELETON is coated in adamantium, not others parts like his joints, though I do love both combatants a LOT, and besides, as stated, Logan can potentially win in some cases, it's just that Jack wins more often than not.

[@RedLSBtheTitaniumStorm]

And yes, if there's ONE thing we can all agree on, it's that this is one MARVELOUS BATTLE! of absolute METAL!

[@skeety7883]

@@RedLSBtheTitaniumStorm Except it can’t. It took Raiden swinging at full force in the same spot at relativistic speeds nonstop to even get a *chance* at landing a fatal blow on Armstrong because of his nanomachines, which is obviously weaker than adamantium. And no, before you mention it, Misty Knight’s Antarctic vibranium arm is not proof. Comparing the two is false equivalence anyway and there’s no proof Murasama is on par. For one, we never see the arm’s effect on actual adamantium, and it’s clear the effects of the arm are far superior anyway. Murasama only weakens molecular bonds to make cutting easier, which has clear limits as shown with Armstrong. Misty Knight’s arm doesn’t even need to make full contact with metals and even then it causes them to full on melt outright. Even Black Panther’s anti-metal claws, which are also made of Antarctic vibranium, haven’t affected Wolverine’s adamantium skeleton. Sure you can argue Raiden is stronger but that hardly matters when Wolverine has consistently taken on people like Hulk and Thor. And Raiden is not nearly fast or skilled enough to land anything fatal even with Blade Mode, Wolverine has consistently shown to match speeds with light timers like Spider-Man, Venom, Daredevil, and Captain America. All Raiden would be doing is match speeds with Wolverine. Raiden’s *only* means of winning is cutting off Wolverine’s head, and he can’t make it happen before Wolverine rips him to shreds.

[@RedLSBtheTitaniumStorm]

@@skeety7883 Well now, it's ACTUALLY deeper than that, while yes the Murasama can struggle against someone like Armstrong, it ALSO cuts ATOMS at the Plank scale, which in this case is apparently scaled RIDICULOUSLY high, like OUTERVERSAL levels of power high, and before you say anything, I've seen ACTUAL proof that the Murasama can in fact potentially be this powerful, like how the Plank scale is the the smallest measurable thing that humans can scale, where ideas about space, time, and the very elements of reality itself break down, and is smaller than an atomic scale, and these *(VERY)* unique blades can even cause quantum disorienting, causing atoms to disrupt at the Plank scale, which in this case can be scaled to freaking outer, and no matter how much mass and volume the target these blades come into cut with, it would apparently jist phase though it or something, meaning that Armstrong not only resisted such blades attacks, to the point of even inFamously snapping Raiden's UPDATED HF Blade EFFORTLESSLY/defied the laws of physics, but he also defied any form of coherent force and exerted energy within the 3d dimension, which he can slso tank attacks on, and as CRAZY as might sound, this consistent with the fact that Jack scales above Solid Snake, who can use the game software code to his advantage, which scales him and thus Jack above the MG cosmos, which is hyper, and this can also be scaled to their speed, thus making them immeasurable in speed, and EVEN then, the save files are canon to MG lore via then being referenced a LOT in said lore, and since Jack killed Sam, who also has these files, it means that not only does he have power null and immortality negation, but thanks to said files, Jack also has semi fate manipulation, and time manipulation, and csn even tine travel with raw SPEED alone, so Jack has immortality and able to canonically revive himself, etc, meaning that while at first glance Jack is not this powerful, he's ACTUALLY INFINITELY more so, because this not even half of what I know of being canon to Jack, and this BASE Jack, BTW, and not with additional multipliers like Ripper Mode, which would make him EVEN more LUDICROUSLY powerful, from 7-500 at MINIMUM Ripper Mode would multiple his already InSayian power ALONE, also, I got two questions: why don't you like Jack at all, and why do love the Incredible Hulk a lot?

[@RedLSBtheTitaniumStorm]

@@skeety7883 Also, there's potential that Jack's Murasama Blade is in fact on PAR with Misty Knight's Antarctic Vibranium arm, via the fact on what I just posted on my previous comment and that it can STILL cut things on the Plank scale even WITHOUT physically touching it.
