time to see which of these two gods
lairs comes out on top you have started
a war you cannot possibly win welcome to
watchmojo.com and in this installment of
video game duels we’re pitting the god
of war kratos against the Umbra witch
Bayonetta
around 1:00 strengthen endurance in his
quest for vengeance credo hasn’t only
given out beatings but taken some as
well engaging in a tug of war with Hades
and exchanging fists with Hercules just
to name a few we could dedicate a whole
list to Kratos his own particular labors
but his most significant are by far when
he was able to withstand the monumental
strength of Cronus as well as stabbing
himself with the blade of Olympus he
just walks it off and goes on to grow
that Nordic beard
pretty badass all right hungry
on the other side she may look slender
and sensual but those legs aren’t just
for gawking at
they’ve also kicked a jet out of the air
her mastery over which time and her
lumen Umbra heritage has granted
Bayonetta impressive strength of her own
while she prefers to either shoot or
torture her angelic enemies to death
she’s not above sending them flying with
those heels of hers either of course we
can’t forget about the time when a
satellite was sent hurtling at her which
of course she simply knocked right the
hell back
Bayonetta may be powerful but she relies
more on her talents as a witch than
brute force plus she hasn’t taken as
many beatings as Kratos who came back
after literally tearing himself apart
winner Kratos
[Music]
round two weapons powers and equipment
where do we even begin with this one
gray doses most reliable weapons have
always remained some variant of the
blades of chaos able to slice apart
enemies up close or at a distance
while he does have some items like the
golden please to help in his defense the
God of War mostly likes to stick to his
namesake instruments of death such as
the Blade of Olympus hooks of Hades and
meanie and cestus have all torn apart
the most seasoned of mythological
creatures while her signature weapons
remain her for firearms attached to each
of her limbs Bayonetta isn’t afraid to
get up close and personal
either her trademark which time ability
allows her to dodge pretty much anything
and slow down time and her demonic
arsenal including the living katana
Rakshasa aren’t to be messed with
but the creme de la creme comes from the
power of the wicked weave where her hair
acts as a catalyst to summon
otherworldly entities the strongest
being Queen Sheba being whose single
punch rivals that of the power of the
Big Bang which she used to punch the
creator of the universe into the Sun
also badass
we love Kratos as weaponry as much as
the next guy but which time is the true
game-changer here
Kratos does have the MU of the faith
that can match Bao’s ability but it only
works if he’s close to a statue of the
fates
whereas Bayonetta can trigger this
ability at the drop of a hat easily
giving her the upper edge winner
Bayonetta don’t break these cuz they’re
one of a kind Round three allies you
always know how to make an entrance John
oh boy this one definitely isn’t in
Kratos his favour since everyone who
looks like they might be a friend either
ends up dead or betrays him or both you
disappoint me Spartan Aries turned him
into the mightiest soldier but tricked
him into killing his family Zeus granted
him the Blade of Olympus but then later
used it to send him to the underworld
the Titans brought him back for his
final vengeance only to send him to the
underworld again even the good hearted
ones like Pandora Athena and orcas end
up fading out of existence after helping
him out man this guy just can’t catch
break for you to be free I must die by
your hand while originally a mysterious
and confrontational figure from her past
Bayonetta’s closest confidant is her
fellow Umbra witch John who is equally
as flashy and just as good at laying the
smackdown on angels then there’s Road on
a fallen angel who not only makes a mean
cocktail but also provides her with all
of her devilish weaponry they may be few
but their talents in killing ensure
Bayonetta is always locked and loaded
and has someone at her back that she can
trust
I’ll go easy so let’s have some fun no
surprises here but any Ally Kratos has
is Six Feet Under and probably in six
pieces leaving him to stand alone
against two beautiful but vicious ladies
armed to the teeth
winner Bayonetta by a landslide suits me
now doesn’t it round for determination
if all members would deny me my
vengeance then all on Olympus will die
Kratos has only ever had one thing on
his mind
revenge Zeus your son has returned
I bring the destruction of Olympus even
after he managed to slay the former God
of War there always seems to be someone
just waiting to wronged him case in
point with Zeus in order to get back at
the father of the gods
Kratos lets nothing stand in his way
slaying practically every major
character in Greek mythology just to get
even matter how many gods fall there
will always be another to stand against
you they will fall as well
the Olympians should really get with the
concept that should you wronged him
Kratos will defy all odds and kill as
many people just for the chance to get
at your throat
after awakening with no memory of who
she was bayonetta pursued her past which
more often than not involved taking out
the inhabitants of heaven spheres where
did you get this you gave it to me mummy
my birthday her laid-back attitude may
seem a little disconcerting but that’s
because she knows how powerful she is
and even the strongest of angels is just
a footnote on her way to the truth as
such she doesn’t come across as
desperate in her goals much preferring a
frisk pace of course if you try to harm
a friend of hers in any way you’re in
for beating of a lifetime one point
that’s worth mentioning is that both
characters at some stage end up escaping
from their games version of hell but a
fixation on such a poisonous goal as
revenge has allowed Kratos to push
himself to the very limits and as such
he’s been able to overcome obstacles and
enemies that few could even at her most
passionate Bayonetta doesn’t seem to
have quite as much drive as the Ghost of
Sparta no I have no father winner
Kratos I do not seek to destroy Olympus
only Supes round five exploitable
weaknesses a single tear and you’ll be
crying alone got it
you can’t go through everything Kratos
has been through without being at least
partially traumatized the constant guilt
from killing his family his ever-present
rage it comes as no surprise that he’s
kind of unhinged of course instead of
breaking down
weeping it’s more likely to fuel the
fire of his anger of all the lives you
should worry about Helios
mine is not one of them he’ll sacrifice
almost anything to achieve his goal aka
that time he used a helpless woman to
jam a mechanism not to mention with the
upcoming ps4 god of war game
Kratos will lose control if his rage is
not kept in check
Bayonetta is a free spirit by all meat
she enjoys the pleasant things in life
and feels new shame for the violence she
conducts against the agents of Paradiso
as you can guess she conducts herself in
a very arrogant and cocky manner yours
is a face only a mother could love and
what I could never forget to be fair if
we could play frisbee with a satellite
it might be warranted but such an
attitude might leave an opening for an
opponent to take advantage of of course
they would need to be insanely powerful
but it still stands as a painted target
on her back a day in the life maybe we
should try being nice
the Umbra witches savvy nature silver
tongue and tendency to rile people up
the wrong way is the very thing that
could easily get under kratos skin
especially if she raised points about
his dead family we have no doubt that
Bayonetta could flip his berserker
switch in mere minutes upon confronting
him
winner bayonetta the only rust on me is
from the lack of any real challenge the
brawl would truly be worthy of Legends
but Bayonetta superior weaponry and
powers would eventually win out the day
when combined with cray doses unchecked
psyche and bloodlust winner Bayonetta
don’t do you agree with our result who
do you think should have won together we
will destroy the petty guards and we
will see Olympus crumble before us with
new video game duels on the way be sure
