Heimdall didn't believe that Kratos was able to beat Baldur, an interaction between the two sounds so interesting, maybe the only time Heimdall wouldn't be an asshole since Baldur is similar
@@SmartAss4123 We've seen he can still be put unconscious though (when Kratos snapped his neck), I feel clean blows to the head with Mjolnir would put him unconscious.
Actually, based on my calculations, the reason Baldur was broken was because Freya put a spell on him which made him completely numb to all physical feeling.
Baldur: "I can't feel anything." Thor: "I slaughtered my people and got idolized for things I didn't want. I'm wishing I could feel nothing because our father seems to like you better." Baldur: "The fuck do you want me to say to that? Move on." Thor: "Easy for you to say. Oh look Freya." Baldur: 👀
@@brianjackson3031Didn’t Thor beat Kratos in majority of their fights or at least tied in most in even canonically killed Kratos only to bring him back from Hel’s(Hela’s) doorstep? And Thor was killed by Odin? I haven’t played all the game myself but from what little I did see that’s how it happened. But I could be wrong but I could’ve sworn Thor(Asgard’s greatest Warrior) mopped the floor with Kratos!
@@House.Of.Pain. Thor was shown to be stronger than Kratos in the first fight. It wasn’t until Kratos unleashed his true strength did he actually land a meaningful blow on Thor. Kratos also didn’t have his blades, which give him a massive boost in power.

Kratos even wrote in the journal about how the pressure thor put on him was the greatest he’d ever faced. He said it was best for both of them that the fight did not reach its conclusion.

@@DegnaDingsOlder Kratos is stronger than younger Kratos, writer of the game confirmed this. Thor symbolically represents younger Kratos, who instead of rebelling against his dad, decided to be his weapon.
@@jarlwilliam9932 I rlly don’t think the devs considered the older games when they made that decision. Considering how much more agile kratos was, how much more he fought, How many more weapons and he had at his disposal, all these things

Whose deadlier the young uncontrollable unhinged guy who can’t think beyond the concept of attack, or the older wiser guy who can literally do everything the younger guy can do but is more calm and collected and can actually out think his opponent. Thor and Kratos where the exact same character in terms of strength, speed, agility, etc. the difference was, Thor fought exactly like younger Kratos while Old Kratos was able to outfight Thor because he was thinking beyond just attack.
Baldur in Norse mythology: The god of light; extremely beautiful and kind Baldur in GOW: Connor McGregor Edit: Apparently, I pissed some dude off in the comments by comparing Connor McGregor to Baldur. Bro was trying to say I was being racist or some shit, I don’t even know, or care for that matter. Bully his ass
In Norse Mythology it is said Baldr is one of the strongest Gods however Thor and Odin are above him, in a fight Thor would win and can incapacitate Baldr and by the time Baldr recovers Thor would've recovered 3 times over and it would have the same outcome, its either Thor wins or it is considered a Draw either way, Baldr wont win.
@@sptflcrw8583people forget that Kratos was only using like 10 percent of his power and when he did use his full power at the last punch and thor realised how strong he was and left
In the journal, Kratos actually does compare how the two fought. Baldur attacked with all he had, aggressively never letting up and trying to cause as much pain and damage as possible. Contrasted to Thor, who fought in a more measured, yet playful manner, showing his love of the fight, but still noting just how powerful his strikes were.
Probably because baldur never cared about getting hit. Like Saitama from OPM. He never felt pain and that made him never care about getting hit since he can't lose. So, he used his entire might. Whereas Thor, despite being more powerful than baldur, had to care about losing/dying.

I played both the games, baldur still felt like the most badass out of all the Aesir, in terms of looks, combat, abilities....he is my personal favorite.
We never saw these two together, but for some reason I have a feeling that they actually liked each other, on the manner that they trash talked each other and probably even fought a lot but that at the end of the day they would have lots of beer and be bros.
These two were the only Aesir that really made you feel like you were taking on the Norse pantheon. Baldur sending Kratos flying with his bare hands and clearly taking the skill advantage in hand to hand combat, Thor straight up overpowering Kratos and killing/KOing (I see this debated a lot amongst fans of what actually happened) and bringing him back just to keep fighting. The last two GOW games were fucking phenomenal don’t get me wrong but so many of the Aesir felt so underwhelming while Thor and Baldur really felt like you could drop them in Greece and they’d fuck shit up
Odin took on Kratos Freya and Atreus at the same time and held his own Odin is an underrated monster Heimdall too almost nobody can defeat them Also Thor overpowered Kratos when he was holding back a lot In reality Kratos is a more powerful then all the norse Gods and Greek Gods too
@Light Mohamed holding back doesn't just apply to strength, also his killer instinct for example. I don't think Kratos is wildly stronger or tougher than the other gods.
The fact that both Thor and Heimdall comment and taunt kratos at how he killed someone like baldur speaks volumes that he was one of their strongest cards
Thor was jealous of Baldur since everyone loved baldur odin probably loved baldur and treated baldur as his favourite child out of the 2 probably where Thor gets his favouritism with magni and modi. Funny thing is there’s a line during the atrues mission where Odin says “we make a good team” to atrues and Thor follows it up with “just like you and baldur” Thor was either trying to remind Odin that atrues killed his son.
The thing is also that Odin manipulated Baldur just like he manipulated Loki. It is not like Baldur was Odin's favorite son - Baldur was more like "the most valuable asset" for Odin. The words Thor said about "just like you and Baldur", I think, were not to remind that Atreus helped to kill Baldur, but that Odin has easily thrown away Baldur and quickly found new "favorite assistant"
@@thedreamscripter4002 yea and also at the beginning of the game odin says something like "baldur was my best tracker, my closer. yea his mind was gone but he had his uses" this shows how odin values people by their uses imo
No he wasn’t, it is never stated or implied that he diss liked his brother, in fact when he fought Kratos for the first time he says “that was for balder” then “that was for Magni” and finally “This is for Modi!” Meaning he cared about his brother just like his sons
Not really. It takes Baldur days to recover. Remember in the first fight Kratos snapped Baldur’s neck and we didn’t see him again til way later. By that point Thor would be all healed up
@@crimtheidiotgenius3694 and realistically Thor would absolutely demolish him. Baldur can't recover quickly and by then Thor would already regain his stamina and what not
Even without the curse, Baldur showed more endurance than Thor. Dude took many attacks from the blade of chaos and the axe in the final battle and managed to fight as if nothing had happened. Not to mention that after these damages, Baldur already appeared without scars.
In Thor’s defense he got hit with the axe that had, the world serpents poison on it. That the poison supposed to kill him in Ragnarok. That’s why he does not regenerate that cut on his stomach.
I dunno, I just enjoyed Baldur much more overall. The first time I played GoW and played through the first fight with Baldur, it was the most fun I had playing a game in a very long time at that point. And that moment during the finale when Baldur just comes walking out of the arctic water like a total boss because he can't feel the freezing temperatures was so badass.
Speed goes to Thor. He can literally fly and use Mjolnir to teleport himself. (We can see that in the game as Thor doesn't jump over the "stair" thing but teleports over)
@@erakerimjan2112 Yes? Both gives him speed advantage considering these two options allows him to go from point A to point B in a short amount of time.
Also it’s just really beautiful. Man can finally feel something. He can finally feel snow as he dies. It’s the beginning of the end for everyone else. Idk it’s just a really powerful line to end on
@School scooter And we understand that but you see what you really have to keep in mind is that Baldur is blessed with invulnerability to all threats: physical or magical.
I love the way that Baldur fights, very unpredictable and the windup-uppercut punches are so funny to watch (in case you don’t know what I’m talking about, the beginning of the game, when he punches Kratos this way and Kratos flies over the house). He is more unorthodox in his fighting style while Thor is far more similar to Kratos in terms of fighting style
and Kratos DID beat Thor, and just spare him trying him to wake up to reality (not to mention kratos could have literally ripped thors head off if he was not holding back)
@datboy038 yeah i do. Are you under the impression that is somehow to his advantage? He doesn't come back immediately. In-game it was like hours before we saw him again. More than enough time for a god to regain strength to snap that crackheads neck again. I also highly doubt thor is gonna hold back so baldur's neck is getting snapped much quicker too Thor breaks baldur's neck indefinitely until either baldur gives up or thor finds mistletoe. That's how that will play out
Honestly besides baulders ability to not die, I’d say they are very even and in a fight would be very hard to determine a winner. Both 10/10 characters
Thor gets IQ. Odin literally says “his mind was gone” and is constantly sending Baldur on missions and ridiculously claiming he’d be fixed from it’s outcome and he believed him.
so was thors. thor stopped caring a long time ago and was drinking himself to death. plus odin said on multiple ocations that hes their for his power not his thoughts or feelings. they both werent the most inteligent
yes, Thor is the superior one in terms of Battle IQ. Kratos himself implied it in his journal when he compared Thor to Baldur. Baldur being someone who just uses everything he has to hurt you as much as possible while Thor while being playful actually fought in a measuring manner
If Baldur wasn't dead by the time of Ragnarok, he'd totally be the guy to go with Loki in Muspelheim instead of Thor. Think about it. Can't feel anything, so send him to the most dangerous environment. Or maybe just let him stick his arm in lava while cackling wildly.
Yep but Ragnarok happens because of baldurs death. Because the guy can't die unless something very specific happens, the end of time doesn't really happen either. Baldur is the bringer of fimblewinter
@School scooter I did, but I chose not to say anything. It would be pointless cause Baldur is blessed with invulnerability to all threats,physical oooor magical. Except for Thanos, when he gets all six infinity stones, he's basically a God at that moment.
Except if we're talking about the Baldur that's still cursed then he automatically wins because no matter how many fights he loses he will come back almost instantly to fight some more, eventually waring down Thor enough to beat him
I could see a really cool fight between them where Thor finds out the vulnerability, and it becomes him trying to force balder toward mistletoe like flinging him through the realms while trying to defend himself
Only problem is that baldur literally cannot die, and since Thor doesn't have mistletoe, he can't kill baldur. No chance Thor ever wins this. And to all you whiny bastards saying Thor can just repeatedly incapacitate him, baldur wouldn't feel it so he'll just keep rushing Thor until he gives up. Plus Thor can't remove the curse.
Neither does Baldur. Kratos made this pretty clear in his journal that Baldur fought wildly and his only goal was to inflict pain that was it. Thor is actually smarter than Baldur in fights tbh he bonked Kratos in the head with a returning Mjolnir even calling Kratos stupid for that and saw Kratos plan to use the tree to hit him
It’s kinda confused me about this: When Kratos use his axe to chop Thor stomach but the wound won’t regenerate it because the venom of The World Serpent but when it hit Bardul he’s can still regenerate it which mean Bardul can resist again the venom right?
maybe Thor just didn't bother to heal his wounds or he doesn't have ability to do so. Baldur was vulnerable in the final fight, and his wounds still got healed.
I've loved Baldur since he first showed up on screen Scrawny, short and oozing with confidence and mystery. I'll never forget the "Oh Sh*t" moment when Kratos got sent flying by someone half his size Being like who TF is that and why is he so happy too get his ass kicked?!?!
Not really a blessing. That’s quite depressing, not being able to feel anything emotionally too, when walking, eating you’re basically just an npc with 4 senses. Combat wise it’s helpful but lifestyle wise especially when surrounded by alcoholics and people full of party energy I can see how he lost his sanity.
That's because no other weapon can withstand the might of Thor. No seriously, that's one of the reasons he likes Mjolnir so much. It's indestructible and Thor had a problem with weapons breaking under his strikes. But Thor was killing frost giants long before he obtained it. Thor is the mightiest of the Aesir. They go to him when they need a giant killed. In game, it was not Mjolnir that sent The World Serpent back in time. It was Thor.
I don’t understand what you’re trying to say. Those go hand in hand, so the same person wins all those categories. So 1 category “overall power” would definitely suffice. But again it was meant as a jokey comment, guess not.
@@quentinhirschfeld9382 “baldur is the only Norse god that felt powerful” pretty sure Thor looked much more powerful then baldur in the newest game lol
Baulder can be beat, as shown in kratos' first fight with him. He can't feel pain, but by examining the fight. You can see him get dazed a bit when kratos kicks his head in on the bolder.
@@josemariantoniofajardo2941 he did not, Thor was literally playing around in the first fight and had JUST fought jormungandar literal moments before he fought kratos the second time. Thor is that guy
Thor could knock him out and “win the fight” like Kratos did in their first fight but Thor has nothing that could put Baldur down for good so you could argue it’s a stalemate or that Baldur eventually tires Thor out/gets lucky and kills him with extreme diff.
baldur's tattoos are cool, shame we never saw baldur interact with thor, odin or heimdall

@@thedreamscripter4002 yea and also at the beginning of the game odin says something like "baldur was my best tracker, my closer. yea his mind was gone but he had his uses" this shows how odin values people by their uses imo
Heimdall is also his son Yk, in Norse myth at least
No he wasn’t, it is never stated or implied that he diss liked his brother, in fact when he fought Kratos for the first time he says “that was for balder” then “that was for Magni” and finally “This is for Modi!” Meaning he cared about his brother just like his sons
@@noahsibahi-jackson8757bueno en la mitologia baldur era el hermano que mas apreciaba thor
Realistically, Baldur would just keep coming back after Thor repeatedly kills him, wearing the latter down in the process.
Not really. It takes Baldur days to recover. Remember in the first fight Kratos snapped Baldur’s neck and we didn’t see him again til way later. By that point Thor would be all healed up
@@purevessel4506 don't we literally see him flip off kratos after he got thrown into the giant chasm thingy?
Pfft then how did Baldur die then?
@@I-need-2-win that was after his invulnerability was removed.

Even without the curse, Baldur showed more endurance than Thor. Dude took many attacks from the blade of chaos and the axe in the final battle and managed to fight as if nothing had happened. Not to mention that after these damages, Baldur already appeared without scars.
In Thor’s defense he got hit with the axe that had, the world serpents poison on it. That the poison supposed to kill him in Ragnarok. That’s why he does not regenerate that cut on his stomach.
The Axe had the poison in the last fight too for Baldur
@@elviraweekes3906 ok but there is a problem, Baldur was hit by the same axe.
@@Superjoseph-vd3zc ok but there is a problem, Baldur was hit by the same axe.
Yeah but when Baldur was hit by the axe he regenerated his arm nearly came off and he healed from it
I feel sad for what happened to Baldur. All he wanted is to feel everything again
Kratos ainda deu uma chance😅
He came to the wrong guy for that but at least he did feel it
He had a sad story. Doesn't change the fact that he's a psycho murdering freak.
I dunno, I just enjoyed Baldur much more overall. The first time I played GoW and played through the first fight with Baldur, it was the most fun I had playing a game in a very long time at that point. And that moment during the finale when Baldur just comes walking out of the arctic water like a total boss because he can't feel the freezing temperatures was so badass.

So cool to tho k that Baldurs final words being ‘snow’ alludes to the fact that his death marks the beginning of Rangarok

Also it’s just really beautiful. Man can finally feel something. He can finally feel snow as he dies. It’s the beginning of the end for everyone else. Idk it’s just a really powerful line to end on

What's the name of this song???? Been wanting to know for months. I don't have tik tok and i dont make videos so i am clueless
I love the way that Baldur fights, very unpredictable and the windup-uppercut punches are so funny to watch (in case you don’t know what I’m talking about, the beginning of the game, when he punches Kratos this way and Kratos flies over the house). He is more unorthodox in his fighting style while Thor is far more similar to Kratos in terms of fighting style
this would literally just be the classic unstoppable force vs immovable object
Except the immovable object can throw hands
True
Thor DID kill Kratos, and then just brought him back to life
and Kratos DID beat Thor, and just spare him trying him to wake up to reality (not to mention kratos could have literally ripped thors head off if he was not holding back)
This is the most accurate video about this comparison I've seen! Good job

@@touresamuels5825 exactly
he can't be killed but he can be incapacitated. don't you remember kratos snapping baldur's neck in the beginning of GOW 18?
@@curtisdunn1854 ye and you remember how he just came back?
@datboy038 yeah i do. Are you under the impression that is somehow to his advantage? He doesn't come back immediately. In-game it was like hours before we saw him again. More than enough time for a god to regain strength to snap that crackheads neck again. I also highly doubt thor is gonna hold back so baldur's neck is getting snapped much quicker too
Thor breaks baldur's neck indefinitely until either baldur gives up or thor finds mistletoe. That's how that will play out
I love this song with this video. And Thor and Baldur looks so badass
Unreal how much better of a game and story IV had over V.

Kratos: The cycle ends here
Thor gets IQ. Odin literally says “his mind was gone” and is constantly sending Baldur on missions and ridiculously claiming he’d be fixed from it’s outcome and he believed him.
so was thors.
thor stopped caring a long time ago and was drinking himself to death. plus odin said on multiple ocations that hes their for his power not his thoughts or feelings.
they both werent the most inteligent
Gutss
@@kevind3974 thor literally opposes Odin at the end, but when kratos tries to reason with Baldur he’s like: “yOu.. i’LL dEaL wiTh yOu LaTeR”
yes, Thor is the superior one in terms of Battle IQ. Kratos himself implied it in his journal when he compared Thor to Baldur. Baldur being someone who just uses everything he has to hurt you as much as possible while Thor while being playful actually fought in a measuring manner
But the thing is, he’s the aesir’s best tracker as stated by Odin himself. You would need a big brain to be an incredible tracker
Big show vs Connor McGregor
Lol
Wouldn't be good if they team up 💀
If Baldur wasn't dead by the time of Ragnarok, he'd totally be the guy to go with Loki in Muspelheim instead of Thor.
Think about it. Can't feel anything, so send him to the most dangerous environment. Or maybe just let him stick his arm in lava while cackling wildly.
It would also be really cool to just watch him fight off enemies
Yep but Ragnarok happens because of baldurs death. Because the guy can't die unless something very specific happens, the end of time doesn't really happen either. Baldur is the bringer of fimblewinter
Baldur is blessed with invulnerability to all threats, physical or magical
@School scooter but Baldur is blessed with invulnerability to all threats, physical oooor magical
@School scooter I did, but I chose not to say anything. It would be pointless cause Baldur is blessed with invulnerability to all threats,physical oooor magical. Except for Thanos, when he gets all six infinity stones, he's basically a God at that moment.
@School scooter it was a problem for kratos it wasnt until his curse was removed he was able to beat him
Except if we're talking about the Baldur that's still cursed then he automatically wins because no matter how many fights he loses he will come back almost instantly to fight some more, eventually waring down Thor enough to beat him
I’d honestly argue thor has more IQ. I’m sure baldur is smart, but he’s gone crazy and his mind is gone from not being able to feel anything
He is Odin’s best tracker tho
Oh, you’re immortal? Let me just knock you into last century.
If baldur used that Immortality as an advantage he'd have a VERY high potential.
I could see a really cool fight between them where Thor finds out the vulnerability, and it becomes him trying to force balder toward mistletoe like flinging him through the realms while trying to defend himself
A fight i would pay to watch
Hmm brother to brother maybe try kratos vs Deimos plss
Lore: Everyone abuse Baldur. Poor guy.
Feel like speed should’ve went to Thor, he literally teleports in the Second Boss Battle with him, Baldur just zips around the field
Yeah but thats travel speed if we are talking pure speed that definitely goes to baldur
i feel like if baldur's curse was never lifted and him and thor went all out, he could lowkey win
Without invincibility Thor would have obliterated baldur
Brother vs Brother... That will be interesting🍷🗿

Baldur: invinsible
Misltoe: I'm about end his whole career😂☠️
on god what is the name of this song i cant find it
Mr Kitty - After Dark
Only problem is that baldur literally cannot die, and since Thor doesn't have mistletoe, he can't kill baldur. No chance Thor ever wins this.
And to all you whiny bastards saying Thor can just repeatedly incapacitate him, baldur wouldn't feel it so he'll just keep rushing Thor until he gives up. Plus Thor can't remove the curse.
Baldur definitely got battle IQ remember Thor doesn’t think when he’s fighting
Neither does Baldur. Kratos made this pretty clear in his journal that Baldur fought wildly and his only goal was to inflict pain that was it. Thor is actually smarter than Baldur in fights tbh he bonked Kratos in the head with a returning Mjolnir even calling Kratos stupid for that and saw Kratos plan to use the tree to hit him
@@purevessel4506true but I think baldur has better combat feats than thor
baldur is such a chad he's walking around shirtless in the cold and not even flinching
I like how Thor is just standing there😂
These comparisions are always useless af

Do thor vs spider man
It’s kinda confused me about this:
When Kratos use his axe to chop Thor stomach but the wound won’t regenerate it because the venom of The World Serpent but when it hit Bardul he’s can still regenerate it which mean Bardul can resist again the venom right?
Yea sincee he is invulnerable to all threat physical or magical, only thing that can lift the curse is mistletoe
maybe Thor just didn't bother to heal his wounds or he doesn't have ability to do so. Baldur was vulnerable in the final fight, and his wounds still got healed.
@@h1gh_end134 baldur in his last fight has no curse but he still didn't get any wounds due to kratos axe
The fact that Baldur got this many points really shows just how powerful he actually is, he's definitely the number three Aesir
I've loved Baldur since he first showed up on screen
Scrawny, short and oozing with confidence and mystery. I'll never forget the "Oh Sh*t" moment when Kratos got sent flying by someone half his size
Being like who TF is that and why is he so happy too get his ass kicked?!?!
But Baldur is blessed with invulnerability to all threats, physical or magical.
Not really a blessing. That’s quite depressing, not being able to feel anything emotionally too, when walking, eating you’re basically just an npc with 4 senses. Combat wise it’s helpful but lifestyle wise especially when surrounded by alcoholics and people full of party energy I can see how he lost his sanity.
So you attack him emotionally
No hay nadie más rápido que Thor. No habéis visto la escena donde asusta a Odín? 😂
Skill iq Thor bro
I mean without Thor’s hammer he hasn’t shown any impressive combat
That's because no other weapon can withstand the might of Thor. No seriously, that's one of the reasons he likes Mjolnir so much. It's indestructible and Thor had a problem with weapons breaking under his strikes. But Thor was killing frost giants long before he obtained it. Thor is the mightiest of the Aesir. They go to him when they need a giant killed.
In game, it was not Mjolnir that sent The World Serpent back in time. It was Thor.
He kills the world serpent

I don’t understand what you’re trying to say. Those go hand in hand, so the same person wins all those categories. So 1 category “overall power” would definitely suffice. But again it was meant as a jokey comment, guess not.

Lol, his final fight with Kratos barely did any environmental damage and he got killed by a single blow from Odin.

No matter what Thor does, Baldur always wins assuming he has the protection spell. You can’t beat the man who can’t even die if he wanted.
Baulder can be beat, as shown in kratos' first fight with him. He can't feel pain, but by examining the fight. You can see him get dazed a bit when kratos kicks his head in on the bolder.
Unless thor has mistletoe he doesn’t stand a chance
Nah man, Thor would just bury him under a mountain or something where he’ll never be able to escape. Thor is like THE guy other than Odin
only way i could see thor winning without mistletoe is either he throws him into space or buries him so deep that he cant get up

Thor could knock him out and “win the fight” like Kratos did in their first fight but Thor has nothing that could put Baldur down for good so you could argue it’s a stalemate or that Baldur eventually tires Thor out/gets lucky and kills him with extreme diff.
