Hello, @GamingLichdom here!
I got bored so I decided to make a random post about something I saw a few weeks ago. It left me feeling very confused, and pretty annoyed.
I haven't watched Death Battle in a long time. Mainly because they SUCK at ranking their characters. The last one I remember watching, before the one I watched a few weeks ago, was Unicron Vs Galactus. I personally didn't like how it ended, although the fight was cool, mainly because the cosmology of Transformers is constantly being downplayed by Death Battle.
So when I found a video about Frieza vs Megatron, I wasn't sure how to feel. I am a MASSIVE fan of both franchises and have made a couple fanfictions on them. I love them very much, having grown up watching and reading them, and so I was interested to see what would happen.
When Death Battle mentioned IDW Comic feats for Megatron, I was 100% certain that he would win; those comics are absolutely insane when it comes to their power feats, having characters who rank WAY HIGHER than anyone in Dragon Ball. I was ready to witness a bloodbath, but I was NOT expecting Frieza to win this one.
So imagine my shock when he somehow manages to beat Megatron despite Death Battle using feats from the IDW Comics. I know some people will say that they mixed them with G1, but that's not the point. If they had used just G1 Megatron then I wouldn't have been upset with the results.
Honestly, I shouldn't be surprised because Death Battle always ruin their fights with terrible powerscaling. The battle should have been completely one sided, yet not only did Frieza manage to keep up with someone who is supposed to be an outerversal threat, but he also managed to win.
I don't know. The community seemed to agree that Frieza wins, which was also a big shock, and people who call out Death Battle for their terrible IDW scaling are either ignored or insulted.
I might write a one-shot at some point just to make a more accurate battle between them. Not really sure.
