Top 10 Best ScrewAttack Death Battles
Death Battle is a Youtube and Screwattack show in which two characters fight to the death. The one remaining is the winner. Although I dislike the foul language in the character descriptions, the battles are always good, if a bit bloody. Nine out of ten times I agreed with the winner. It recently hit 25 episodes.
Great fight, the first fight to really feel like an impressive production and effort, with the opening credits creating a feeling that has yet to be matched. The fight itself is excellent and stacks up well even with the current fights, despite most modern ones having much better models and more experienced animators. Probably because it's one of the most loving depictions of DB I've seen, capturing the insane speed and energy of the fights perfectly.
From what I've heard, Superman seems stronger, but I don't understand why Goku doesn't just blow up the sun, which is Superman's source of power. Superman has more fans, but it's because America is a more famous country than Japan. It doesn't automatically make Superman a better character. Personally, I like Goku billions of times more, and I really hope he would win. Epic fight anyway.
Having a character talk in their own analysis was really fun and novel at the time. This is the only Deadpool episode where the fourth-wall breaking doesn't feel intrusive and obnoxious during the actual fight.
Best Death Battle I've ever seen. Fast-paced action, raw computer 3D animation - this fight has it all, even big-time comedy.
Wade Wilson, aka Deadpool "the Merc with a Mouth," versus (my personal favorite) Slade Wilson, aka Deathstroke "the Terminator."

I love these characters, and I even love this Death Battle.
Amazing fight, amazing dialogue. However, the Lex Luthor analysis felt super lazy, just going, "Well, it can fight Superman but not really," without explaining how it stacks up against anyone but Kryptonians.
Tony won. You know why? All this time, he was not playing god. He was playing human.
I'm not playing god. All this time...I've been playing human!
Excellent fight, fun analysis. They truly analyzed the "weapons, armor, and skills" here, which is really cool when they do it because the characters are too close to call by stats. However, here they seemed to just skip over stats.
The scenario made sense and added to the fight. The incorporation of the cardboard box was great, as was the inclusion of an info war between Otacon and Grim. The fight in the dark is genuinely one of the coolest things to happen in any Death Battle.
My personal favorite Death Battle. Until this came along, Mario vs. Sonic and Deadpool vs. Deathstroke were considered the epitome of "Death Battle." As entertaining as they were, they still weren't quite as definitive as this one.
With great introductions that told you exactly who was fighting, a reasonable aftermath, and one of the best fan-made CGI crossover fights ever, this truly is the meaning of "Death Battle." If you only see one, it should be this.
Entertainment: 9/10

Was the aftermath and explanation for why the winner won weak? Yes. In fact, it was among the weakest in the series. However, this was more than made up for by the battle itself.
People will say, "Majin Buu shouldn't be tossed around by a hammer!" Don't listen to them. That hammer, by the way, is made up of pure Star Power and is one of Kirby's most powerful weapons. Do your research.
Set to some of the greatest battle music in video game history, the battle was a constant rollercoaster of power. Kirby was winning one moment, Majin Buu the next. Kirby would gain an ability, and Buu would have to overcome it. Kid Buu comes in, and Kirby must gain enough power to deal with him. Combined with amazing (and hilarious) candy-colored visuals, this was one of the best Battles ever (key word: battles).
Entertainment: 10/10 if you are reasonable, 2/10 if you are a DBZ fanboy.
Explanation: 3/10
The two most powerful characters in history fight? Why the heck isn't this higher? Remember Goku vs. Superman, where they ended up destroying the Earth fighting each other? Well, these guys destroy the Earth halfway through and continue fighting, using planets and moons as weapons!
They keep fighting after going through stupidly powerful things, including being thrown through the entire Earth, getting caught in a supernova, and entering a black hole. The explanation of the characters was fantastic, and when you have a Death Battle that's good enough to shut up the haters, you know it's impressive.
Entertainment: 9/10

An epic duel of swordsmen, this was both an obvious fight and a very close one at the same time. If you were rooting for Link, somehow it seemed Link was destroying Cloud. If you were rooting for Cloud, somehow it seemed that Cloud was beating up Link. If you didn't care who won, you could see how close the battle was.
Entertaining: 10/10
Explanation: 9/10
This fight was pretty cool, but they placed a fully upgraded Link against a newbie Cloud with nothing besides the basic equipment. I can see why they did this. Otherwise, Cloud would finish the fight in seconds if he were fully upgraded.
How can you not love this battle? It was so hyped, and it delivered. The only downside is, yeah, Darkseid was an absolute stomp. That was obvious by the time they were done with his bio.
The fight itself was very nice and is basically the meaning of "Death Battle." However, this is the one fight in which I disagree with the winner.
SPOILER ALERT: Sonic wins. With how they outfitted Mario, it's slightly reasonable that Sonic would win, but only slightly. I mean, Mario's Ultra Hammer breaks through metal like it was nothing. Why didn't it make a dent on Sonic?
If they had given Mario a few more or different items, he would've easily won, like the Rock Mushroom, the Drill, and the Crystal Stars. Oh, and THE MEGA MUSHROOM DOESN'T MAKE MARIO DIZZY AFTER USING IT.

The Newcomers
Best animation with cool references.
The question everyone has been asking for years is finally answered, and I totally agree with the verdict.
I'm one of those guys that wanted Charizard, but I have to agree: defensive water types aren't good for Charizard at all.
Oops. Guess I forgot about this. For me, this easily takes spot No. 10 instead of Mario vs. Sonic. There were many thrilling moments, and the explanation was well done, but it just wasn't as good as most of the others on this list.

By the way, to whoever suggested Moses vs. Mohammed and Optimus vs. Megatron, you most likely don't understand what this list is. Look up Death Battle on Screwattack.com.
This was awesome. The reasoning was perfect, the fight was great, and the ending was epic. Spidey is much stronger, faster, and tougher, so his win was unarguable. ScrewAttack finally gave the world what it needed: someone to beat Batman.
I was rooting for Voltron and betting on Power Rangers, but I was super happy that Voltron beat the Megazord. I thought this would be in my top 5 favorite Season 4 Death Battles.
The battle was superb. And I don't say the word "superb" much. Seriously, I'm not much of a formal guy.
Godzilla won because Gamera has a turtle shell with a strong defense, but Godzilla is able to heal. I thought Gamera destroyed Godzilla, but in the end, Godzilla was able to use his ultimate weapon.
One of my favorites along with Robocop vs Terminator, Goku vs Superman, Luigi vs Tails, and Scorpion vs Ryu.
The fight was incredible. And the explanation was great too.

This was just awesome. However, although the High Frequency Blade had many similarities to Antarctic vibranium, Misty Knight's arm liquefied metal just by being near it. If it is comparable to the Murasama, wouldn't it have melted his cyborg metal body?
I thought Death Battle picked favorites, but this battle proves they are being fair.
One of the best fight videos yet. The outcome was fairly obvious if you know both series, as I do, but the animators really went all out on the weapons and clashes.
Of course, I knew Dante would win because:
1. He's much faster and has ways to counter Witch Time.
2. He's ridiculously hard to kill, while Bayonetta's witch clan was slaughtered by humans, and Bayonetta's survivability is consistent with that. She's tough but quite vulnerable compared to him, although that's because he's meant to be basically invincible.
Still, the best female hack 'n' slash protagonist put up a hell of a fight considering she was fighting someone who is meant to be pretty much invincible. Both these characters are awesome and overpowered, but one is meant to have weaknesses and clear limitations, while the other is meant to be almost invincible by the end.
Good fight, but I felt like World Breaker Hulk should have lasted way longer than he did.
I was sad that Hulk lost, but Doomsday had gone up against the Man of Steel, who had beaten Goku twice and won!
Now I didn't expect this coming, but this fight is awesome. I love how the mascots and stars of the top fighting games totally rocked.
Sure, we could've had good matches such as Ryu vs. Liu Kang and Scorpion vs. Ghost Rider. But the way Scorpion brought the fight into the NetherRealm was just awesome.

Explanation: 9.5/10
And I'll say Ryu did try his best, and so did Scorpion.
It was really cool, but Scorpion's "fatality" could have been better.
Funniest Death Battle, in my opinion.
You love this battle. Don't fight it.
Who thought this would have been good? But it was, and very good at that. The fight is fun to watch, and the fights look very cool. See it.

Unfortunately, this wasn't a crossover.
Battle of the two Mario idiot enemies. Tie. Awesome fight, though.
The battle's graphics weren't all that good, but the fight itself was. This would've been much higher, however, if the winner wasn't so obvious.

Two armies of robots clashing together in a very cool fight. The fight was very good and was basically a bunch of battles in one. Metal Sonic vs. Bass would have, by itself, been an interesting fight, but it didn't get done because it was in here! There's not much of an explanation, but the fight was created so it's obvious why the winner won.
Entertaining: 9/10
Explanation: 8/10
How can robots, teen talk, and "Sonic and Mega Man" (which needs to be replaced by "Sonic and Pac-Man") be cool if it's too annoying and modern?! Wily and Eggman teaming up is a big mistake. And what's with Sonic and Mega Man?!
My fave! I was voting for Naruto but thought that Ichigo would win. But nope, my boy Naruto takes number one.
This was a good battle. I was rooting for Naruto because I really haven't seen Bleach.
Saw this battle twice and loved it, but I'm still not sure how Naruto won.
