Battle Every human on Earth is forced into a 1v1 single-elimination tournament. Who is the last person standing?

0 Upvotes

Imagine every single person on Earth being forced into a massive 1v1 single-elimination tournament. Matchups are completely random, no weapons allowed, just hand-to-hand combat. Everyone is fully healed and rested after each fight, so injuries and fatigue don't carry over.

It would take around 33 rounds to crown the winner.

Who do you think would actually win this? An Spy? An NBA Player? A WWE Fighter? Olympic wrestler, a powerlifter, or just some ridiculously huge guy?

And who would be the first people to get eliminated? Would we see most of the elderly and children gone within the first few rounds? How far could the average person realistically make it?

I also wonder if there's someone out there who's practically guaranteed to win, or if the randomness of the matchups makes it impossible to predict

Who would you put your money on?

Their arrival is just like the movie and series were they come from space but we have everything at our disposal, I'm assuming they would be spotted by satellites and telescopes before they arrive or maybe not

Challenge Darth Vader vs Magneto, no prep, abandoned Imperial Star Destroyer

4 Upvotes

Both start at opposite ends of the ship with basic knowledge of each other. Vader has his lightsaber and the Force. Magneto has his powers and whatever metal is on the ship, which is a lot. Win by death or incapacitation. I think Magneto takes it but Vader's telekinesis might counter the metal control in ways people overlook.

Challenge "Avatar Aang: The Last Airbender" new movie matchup against Danny Phantom, Marvel, and Narutoverse

0 Upvotes

Everyone is bloodlusted Aang in the Avatar State gets Sonam's staff. He goes up against:

  • Black Panther (King T'Challa).
  • Storm.
  • Mei Terumi.
  • Adult Sakura Haruno.
  • Adult Gaara.
  • Adult Dark Danny Phantom.

How far does he get? I know that the consensus is that Storm and everyone else onward would clap him in his Avatar State at standard levels. But with the staff and a bloodlusted willingness to win, can he change anything here?

Challenge Who would win: the entire world vs. Nation X

0 Upvotes

Hypothetical scenario:

Nation X has roughly 90 nuclear warheads (estimated, obviously) and has never officially confirmed or denied possessing them.
Every other country + the citizens of their countries unite with this one common goal as their top priority, with 10 years prep time.

The world wins if it can disable every single nuclear weapon and delivery system before Nation X manages to detonate one. Nation X wins if even one nuke goes off.
The world gets the combined resources of every intelligence agency and military on Earth. Nation X includes mobile launchers, nuclear-capable submarines, and possibly contingency plans for retaliation if its leadership is wiped out. Nation X is also home to the best intelligence service in the world.

Could the combined intelligence and military capabilities of the entire planet actually pull this off with a decade of preparation? Or is it basically impossible to guarantee that not even one warhead survives?

Battle Master Chief vs Adam Smasher (If you ignore the anime where he can freeze time which is obviously artistic license interpretation rather than a literal representation of the character in actual lore because anime sometimes is super stylized and you need to have a just single braincell to understafSD

Title is sarcastic, Adam Smasher is cool, Edgerunners is amazing. but IF we ignore the single piece of media which makes Sandevistan literal MAGIC and focus on every other representation in lore, then who actually wins?

Fist fight to surrender or incapacitation. Takes place in a boxing ring. Both are 'incharacter' as the real people, they want to win the fight but will avoid killing or maiming the other. Otherwise no rules. Let's sat it's a billion dollar charity pay per view fight or whatever.

Bonus Round: Both comedians engage in pre fight trash talk, who talks better smack?

Challenge GTA 4/TLAD/TBOGT: Niko Bellic, Johnny Klebitz, and Luis Lopez all have the Death Note at specific points. What happens?

3 Upvotes

The Death Note is dropped during the events of the GTA 4, TLAD, and TBOGT and is in the hands of the three main protagonists in three different scenarios.

Scenario #1: Niko gets the Death Note and Ryuk after “Bleed Out” where he and Roman dealt with Dardan.

Scenario #2: Johnny gets the Death Note and Ryuk after “Clean and Serene” where Billy got out of prison.

Scenario #3: Luis Lopez gets the Death Note and Ryuk after “I Luv LC”

What happens? How would they each react to the rules of the Death Note and interact with Ryuk? Would their stories change immensely?

Would any of them even use it at all?

And would all three have a happy ending or get an even worse ending?
