So, incase you missed it, They made a huge mistake in this death battle that Ben even acknowledged. They accidentally calculated 18's speed wrong. She should be a LOT faster than they said. It doesn't exactly changed the result, but it's still a thing. It should be a pinned comment on the episode's youtube page.
Actually, it wouldn't have affected the result. Regardless of the speed, the fight would be exactly the same. They're not going to make a fight shorted because someone is faster. Entertainment is the main objective.
And they gave an explaination for energy absorbtion in Death Battle Cast too. in bens words "In the original manga, Gero never says that 17 and 18 can't absorb energy. He says they are "infinite energy models" and that 19 and Gero are energy absorption models" That is the robot model name and does not mean they are incapable of absorbing energy." Hence, the fact they can do this in the games does NOT go against canon.
Except 1.) The Daizenshuu states that absortion models only advantage over the Eternal energy models is that they can absorb energy 2.) If 17 and 18 could absorb energy they would have obviously attempted to do so in the series (when 17 got hellzone grenaded is the prime example)
Fair point. I still very much doubt that it would affect the result though, considering the speed and strength difference. Along with 18, even if incapable of the ability, still knowing and understanding what the power was when it was being used and stopping.
But he does need his healing factor to maintain his anger levels. They said so in Hulk vs. Doomsday. Overtaxing the healing factor can weaken him since less anger means less power.
yeah but all we've seen his healing factor be overtaxed is by Zeus I believe and that dude's like a skyfather, skyfathers have magic powers so I dunno.
Abdorb energy but only via a grab never projectile ( at least with the amount of DB games ive played it was always physicaly never projectile absorbstion )
they really lowballed 18s power, like a lot... however they also really lowballed the binary form... binary may be strong enough to win, but other than that, 18 would crush marvel
Jackal Blades they lowball all of DBZ. Check out seththeprogrammer's channel, he's debunked both Goku v Superman vids, Buu v Kirby, and a few more. All with proper power scaling from actual DBZ guides.
Justin Croxton everyone highballs dbz characters. Goku recently struggled against an opponent that only went to lightspeed. Even Zeno, who BEERUS is afraid of, could not keep with them. Vegeta could not lift 10,000 tons in his fight against maggeta. I care not about screw attack's lowballs, as everyone us hypes up characters way too much.
ris hulk is incredibly powerful, if he becomes world breaker he can destroy cities by taking a single footstep. even in his normal form he has held two halves of a planet together, he is definitely a planet buster
I'm thinking that 18 might not be able to absorb energy on the same level as Captain Marvel, but maybe just enough to resist even her strongest energy attacks.
"In Xenoverse" And? Xenoverse is not official canon (before you bring up SS4, just don't. That's an entirely different thing). Super Buu can absorb energy just like 18 and 17 in Xenoverse, too. Are you saying Super Buu in canon can absorb energy? The big problem here is that this directly contradicts the Daizenshuu which states 18 and 17 are NOT energy absorption models.
after a few seasons of deathbattle, Im actually happy that you acted uninterested towards the sponser, rather than acting like you love it and nodding constantly
epixsss she has been shown doing it in the games and they say if they use noncanon sources for one ther other gets it for fairness that's why spinoffs are taken into account
Ben Sell if that were true than captain marvel should have feats of games she was like ultimate alliance games, contest of champions, etc plus those games messes with the lore, abilities of characters of dragon ball.
well from goku v superman they stated that ki is not a form of magic and here they say captain marvel can ABSORB MAGIC for energy(it might have been all energy though pretty sure it was mainly magic) while 18 uses KI
Jetz is animating this one, so yeah it's most likely 2d. I hope Torrian's next fight is soon, like right after Metal Sonic vs Zero hopefully. He's been posting hints about it on his twitter ever since April, and I wanna know what it is. At the very least, it'll definitely be great though.
I admit, I was kind of unconvinced of Android 18's ability to absorb energy via projectiles. But since that's deemed canon (for the fight), Captain Marvel definitely didn't have a chance. Furthermore, since Captain Marvel is still a human albeit a superhuman one, she can still get tired while 18 has infinite energy due to her engine. In DBZ, Android 17 boasted how his engine supplied him infinite energy while Piccolo would gradually get worn out. Also, your reaction to being right and maintaining your win streak was pretty funny. Good for your guess. And thanks again for posting your reactions.
You should watch through DBZ Abridged. I know you said you had watched it a while ago (you recognized Vegeta's voice in Death Battle as being from it), but you seemed to imply that you hadn't watched it in a long time. A watch through would be great! Though if you want to learn about canon from it, keep in mind that basically everything they say about Popo is made up (he's a genie and that's about it). Otherwise they're surprisingly close.
@ScrewAttack since you guys include every official source this is how the battle should have happen. First, Carol Danvers should have been given access to the Time Stone since she has been seen using it in Marvel vs Capcom: Infinite teaser trailer. Second, the infinity stones are consider singularities based off the explanation of the MCU Collector. Third, the energy from the stones can be drained based of what Arsenal did in Avengers Assemble. Fourth, Carol can use the Time Stone's power to completely freeze 18 in time removing her speed. This was shown possible when Hit was able to completely freeze time on both Goku and Vegeta. Fifth, Carol can absorb enough of the Time Stone's energy to go full-on Binary, but save enough to continue to have the power over time. She only needed 81% of a White Hole's energy to go full-on Binary. Lastly, 18 still frozen in time, Carol unleashes every single last drop of Binary's energy into a planet(s) busting attack onto 18. Time unfreezes and 18 is hit by the force of that attack in an instant giving her no time to make the decision to absorb the energy. 18 is obliterated.
MediaMarvel Dude, videogame and movie sources are not ok. Even so, Android 18 can take Star level attacks since introduction, and she has trained since then. If we want to put her at Android 17 (which she is relative to), Android 17 is currently able to go toe to toe with characters that have LITERALLY shaken the universe when they exchange blows.
xixFreedomManxix ScrewAttack include everything since they chose characters from everywhere. It has never been shown in the anime or manga or anywhere else that she can tank Star level attacks. Alternate 18 was destroyed by an energy wave, Super Android 13 was destroyed by an energy sphere and Super Android 17 was destroyed by a punch. Also, Goku ALWAYS matches his power to his opponent, like when he fought Vegeta in the Buu Arc; so, her or her brother "fighting" Goku does not count since there are too many inconsistencies. In addition, what does star level really mean? Just because a character has "star level power" does not mean they have star level durability. Example, Cooler and Baby. Even though the material says that 18 has gotten stronger that does not mean more durable. Remember a percentage of 18 will always be cybernetic. So, unless Bulma decided to upgrade her, 18 can only improve the organic part of herself leaving a portion of herself out-of-date. But, my point is that defense, in the Dragon Ball franchise, requires the use of Ki. With the Time Stone, Carol Danvers could have frozen 18 in time, making her unaware of whats going on or whether or not she needs to use Ki to put up a defense against an attack. Since Captain Marvel is strong enough, in star level+ Binary form, to destroy a planet, destroying an defenseless 18 should be no problem.
MediaMarvel I guess defenceless is not really an argument, but both her and 17 have energy shield skills that can block serious attacks from characters that could overpower planet time 120 characters.
xixFreedomManxix are you ignoring the fact that I basically said it does not take the power of a star to destroy any of Dr. Gero's androids, which Carol Danvers can reach and the Time Stone removes 18's speed advantage over Carol. Also, I used defenseless in the context that 18 would be defenseless against the Time Stone like Goku and Vegeta was defenseless against Hit's time stopping ability. Dr. Gero had no experience dealing with time-based abilities, so he had no reason to add time-based counters to his androids, including 17 and 18.
I get they use non canon feats like 18 absorbing energy but they didnt show it well, she could only absorb energy on contact she couldnt absorb projectile, the only people that could absorb projectile energy was android 19, cyborg gero and Super 17 ( And you should not if you look at these characters palms they have... something on them, dont know what to call it but the energy they absorbed always got sucked into the hands )
I know a bunch of people are commenting on it, but yeah, Android 18 doesn't take other people's energy, at least not from a distance. I've never used her in Dragonball Xenoverse, but from the footage they show, it seems to only be a contact thing, not sucking up from a distance. As far as I know, the only Android capable of doing sucking up Energy through his skin, was Super 17 in Dragonball GT.
@Ris Grestar ScrewAttack didn't want Carol to win against a Dragon Ball character. They say they use every official information, but they didn't use the fact that Carol had access to the Time Stone based off the Marvel vs Capcom: Infinite teaser trailer. With the Time Stone, which is consider a singularity, Carol could have absorb enough energy to become full-on Binary and have total control over time giving her the match. They didn't even include Carol's healing factor, but they did include 18's energy absorption ability in her game which is as close to contradictory as you can get. And don't say they don't use power-ups available to all playable characters because they did it in the Final Fantasy match-ups. They, also, use game trailers as a source when they used it to determine Scout's durability. They purposely prevented Carol from reaching her maximum potential because they gave the Power Stone to Mega Man in DBX. I don't care who is the winner as long as the information is sound, but this one had left out so much crucial information that you have to question their motivation behind this match-up.
Also didn't alternate 18 get obliterated by future Trunks. So they show when Carol was defeated but not 18. Remember alternate 18 got killed by an energy attack.
This Death Battle is LITERALLY the one I have ever had issue with. I always loved their analysis. Hulk vs Doomsday was so well explained that my respect for them grew new heights, but they lost a great deal of my respect by short changing Carol.
MediaMarvel On your second note I will say this... the 18 that was killed was an alternate timeline and weaker version of 18. She is easily a planet buster but she cares too much about the earth to outright destroy it like most characters in DBZ. Though this battle was set up from the beginning with both being nerfed hard.
ShadowJoey777 I see what you are saying, however Future Trunks destroying alternate 18 and Buu turning 18 into chocolate are the only instances in which we see how 18 handles energy-based attacks. Also, even though current 18 was quote "stronger" than alternate 18 that doesn't mean anything about her durability, since a much stronger android, Super Android 13, was being destroyed by an energy-based attack.
MediaMarvel Android 13 was never cannon but hey even that word has lost its meaning in death battle, also yes 18 isn't show to handle certain situations all that well but she does take no based attacks well enough. DBS is evidence enough of that hell 17 who was supposed to be weaker than her can fight toe to toe with blue goku. 18 can't absorb energy period. They treat every thing as evidence without thinking logically as the absorbing grab is a gameplay mechanic rather than an accurate description of her ability. Sorry for the run on paragraph.
+Yeah, I mean, c'mo, Ris, it's one of his titles XD But yeah that's the thing about Hulk, they can make him fight anyone and lose/stalemate with the reason that he wasn't mad enough at the time. Adjustable power levels FTW
Hulk is far beyond a planet buster, honestly tons of things were wrong here tho 18 does win IMO cause Carol can't stand up against a serious hulk unless she is binary
Wait, did you stop watching DBZA? (I assume it, because you didn't really know 18.) You were the reason I started watching that show, so you should watch it yourself XD. It's very good ^^.
No the Red Ribbon Army was not all Androids/Cyborgs in fact I think in Dragonball Android Number 8 was the only Android we saw. point is the majority of the Red Ribbon Army where humans.
UPDATE Ben went to Twitter and addressed the energy absorption-issue...with an apology. He himself went digging in the manga and found a clear line saying, 17 and 18 DON'T absorb energy. He and the team missed that line and made a wrong assumption. The original result is still the same, but this detail was wrong, and he is sorry about it. Source: twitter.com/BenBSinger/status/877022512022003712
also to all who keep complaining about OH 18 CANT ABSORB ENERGy NAH NAH they got that info from the games of dbz and guess who made those games..... FING DBZ so yes besides 18 wouldnt need it to beat marvel
The problem here is the manga (comic) states that she can't do this but Screwattack still put it up and tried to defend their claim. They said that 18 not being able to do it wasn't directly stated or hinted at however it was in fact stated by Trunks that 17 and 18 couldn't absorb energy, instead they had an infinite energy supply. I agree with you with 18 being able to take Captain Marvel without that ability.
+Sean Fleetman TBH Screwattack is being stubborn as hell at this point. Geekdom even directly linked the Daizenshuu bit about the models for the androids and even showed the Trunks scan you're talking about and they still haven't responded yet.
I'm impressed I dont know much about captain marvel back then but I had a gut feeling android 18 had a better chances winning and the energy absorption was the main factor my wild guess why some say 18's doesn't absorb or didnt mention it was either she forgot she can do that or if she did know she probably didnt need to use it unless it was necessary so that could be the reason but I'm happy with the results and looks like marvel comics might have found a worthy foe with dbz lol
Yeah, I didn't know who would win either. I just went with what I grew up with, and rooted for Android 18 to win.(I didn't know shit about Captain Marvel, besides what Death Battle mentioned)
The Marvel universe has some of the hardest hitters in all of fiction. The one above all - Eternity - Living Tribunal - Beyonder and even the Phoenix force. Dragon ball's got nothing on The one above all.
foxhounde True, the Dragon Ball universe doesn't have any true omnipotent characters (Zeno is questionable), but characters like freiza have been planet, and star level since their introduction. First form freiza destroyed a planet with 10x gravity as earth with complete ease, and is over 120x that in his final form. Android 18 is at least able to destory stars, and could probably destroy our solar system with relative easy. EDIT: These are factual statements confirmed by the anime/manga, and Android 18 is confirmed greater than freiza.
I highly recommend you to watch Dragonball Z and if you're going to watch an English I highly recommend the Kai Dub or, say screw that and just watch Dragonball Z Abridged.
Chi and Ki are the same thing. Chi is the Chinese word, and Ki is Japanese. As long as you aren't being racist, I don't think it matters which pronunciation you use. The only time it really matters is when you are talking to a devout anime fan or Otaku (but the word Otaku is actually I resulting in Japan, so don't use that word)
I hate how death battle wants to calculate the strengbt and speed of dbz. They just cant, dbz cant be calculated at all. As kids goku and krillin already moved faster than sound and even light. Now imagine super saiyan and more now with god forms and ultra instinct. They are just too overpowered for anyone, and i mean anyone. Well saitama, and popeye the sailor might have a chance
Oblismal Fright Are you seriously gonna say that it sucks because of one mistake? They take info from every source they can find except fan speculation and crazy fanboy stuff like "Naruto can destroy the entire multiverse at 1% base form" and such. Sure, they don't do it with everyone, but they do it with most.
Oblismal Fright Dealing with aspects from different canons is tricky but here I can let it slide because her opponent is a comic book character, where doing so is pretty much a requirement. If you pull from multiple sources on one, you need to do it for the other.
18 is "possibly" planet level? First-Form Frieza effortlessly destroyed Planet Vegeta (Which had 10x Earth's gravity) with his finger, and Frieza's Final Form was 240x his First Form's power. Even in an improved mechanical body Frieza was jobed by Trunks who got his ass bodied by 18. 18 should at minimum be more than 1,000x planet level (both offensively and defensively) Furthermore when you look at COMBAT speed rather that TRAVEL speed Goku passes light speed at the very latest by the Saiyan Saga, and even saying Goku hit it just when he arrived on Namek would leave Goku more than 1,600x slower than his SSJ1 form during the Frieza fight, meaning 18 should be well above 1,600x light speed.18 also can't absorb energy, that was 19/20's gimmick. As for Metal Sonic vs Zero, unless Zero has speed feats putting him several thousand times the speed of light or Death Battle lies their way to underpowering Metal it is going to be a short fight. Metal Sonic is a copy of Sonic who in the comics made and threw a ball of water which hit a badnik in the span of 0.00000000000001 milliseconds, which puts Sonic and anyone who can match his speed (like Tails, Knuckles, Shadow, and Metal) so fast even the fastest version of The Flash would be jealous. However I suspect this is another rigged fight where they are going to deliberately underpower a Sonic character so that Nintendo (or in this case Capcom) can beat them (They scrounged through every little thing they could to dismiss everything they could for Knuckles while getting any little thing they could spin to boost DK).
not all screw attack death battle is honest they screw cloud from final fantasy making link win remember they didn't include the summon. and i know the butt hurt link fan boys going to say yeah right link is strong in every ways even when link use that majura mask or not screw attack knows that majura mask is not strong as final fantasy summon that's way they didn't include both link majura mask and final fantasy summon i understand link fans loved playing Zelda they loved the game but you have to be open minded and be honest with them selfs. poor little cry baby link fans kids. screw attack is a bunch of link fan boys of course its not fair
I find it funny anymore how DB severely lowballs DBZ. 18 CANNOT absorb energy, only 19 and 20 could. And they're the inferior models. 18 is far faster than what they say, and incredibly stronger than what they say. "possibly the planet" seriously guys? they've been planet busters since the Saiyan Saga. 18 is easily dwarf star level. Go to seththeprogrammer's channel, he's explained and debunked Goku v Superman (both vids) Buu v Kirby, and Gara v Toph all with proper power scaling. DB has gotten the scaling wrong since day one, lowballing all of DBZ. and in my opinion it's just to get views.
So, incase you missed it, They made a huge mistake in this death battle that Ben even acknowledged. They accidentally calculated 18's speed wrong. She should be a LOT faster than they said. It doesn't exactly changed the result, but it's still a thing. It should be a pinned comment on the episode's youtube page.
Actually, it wouldn't have affected the result. Regardless of the speed, the fight would be exactly the same. They're not going to make a fight shorted because someone is faster. Entertainment is the main objective.
Except the energy absortion is still bs and even Geekdom and other big people in the Dragon Ball community have called them out on it.
And they gave an explaination for energy absorbtion in Death Battle Cast too. in bens words "In the original manga, Gero never says that 17 and 18 can't absorb energy. He says they are "infinite energy models" and that 19 and Gero are energy absorption models" That is the robot model name and does not mean they are incapable of absorbing energy." Hence, the fact they can do this in the games does NOT go against canon.

2.) If 17 and 18 could absorb energy they would have obviously attempted to do so in the series (when 17 got hellzone grenaded is the prime example)
Fair point.
I still very much doubt that it would affect the result though, considering the speed and strength difference. Along with 18, even if incapable of the ability, still knowing and understanding what the power was when it was being used and stopping.
The way he deducted who wins was really good for him not seeing the series or reading the Captain Marvel comics
Hulk can be a planet buster actually. But it does depend on a lot of different factors, like which universe he's in and how angry he is.
But he does need his healing factor to maintain his anger levels. They said so in Hulk vs. Doomsday. Overtaxing the healing factor can weaken him since less anger means less power.
yeah but all we've seen his healing factor be overtaxed is by Zeus I believe and that dude's like a skyfather, skyfathers have magic powers so I dunno.
maybe metal sonic vs zero is continuation from wily vs eggman
Hearteu Attack god I hope not otherwise Zero won't stand a chance
Still love your reactions Ris. Great to see you still doing these.
Android 17 and 18 doesn't absorb energy. They have their own limitless energy.
SuperEZ63 games are taken into account, 18 can absorb energy in the games
Don't know why since games aren't canon. They didn't take Marvel's game powers into account.
Abdorb energy but only via a grab never projectile ( at least with the amount of DB games ive played it was always physicaly never projectile absorbstion )
Not too many games that makes Marvel better....usually games < comics, in terms of power
Shady Doorags GT is also not canon, and yet they used ssj4 Goku.
After the Power Rangers vs Voltron episode. I, too, like that they're showing both combatants immediately. Those teases were really irking me. :)
AngelCam7 Right
I love auto captions
hey guys I'm miss breasts are and how do we watch a death battle
they really lowballed 18s power, like a lot... however they also really lowballed the binary form... binary may be strong enough to win, but other than that, 18 would crush marvel
Jackal Blades they lowball all of DBZ. Check out seththeprogrammer's channel, he's debunked both Goku v Superman vids, Buu v Kirby, and a few more. All with proper power scaling from actual DBZ guides.
this one was more interesting... they really didnt even try to give numbers, and just suggested "maybe planets"
if you're considering any excessive amount of powerscaling then that's not good evidence. They did lowball them though.
Justin Croxton everyone highballs dbz characters. Goku recently struggled against an opponent that only went to lightspeed. Even Zeno, who BEERUS is afraid of, could not keep with them. Vegeta could not lift 10,000 tons in his fight against maggeta. I care not about screw attack's lowballs, as everyone us hypes up characters way too much.
ris hulk is incredibly powerful, if he becomes world breaker he can destroy cities by taking a single footstep. even in his normal form he has held two halves of a planet together, he is definitely a planet buster
i love your show and tell during the commercials. makes me smile! xD
Keep up the good work and keep being awesome
Love your videos Ris, so glad your back
21:58 that's gotta be the most deadliest fist bump ever!
I'm thinking that 18 might not be able to absorb energy on the same level as Captain Marvel, but maybe just enough to resist even her strongest energy attacks.
MrAuthor3DS She can't absorb energy to begin with
"In Xenoverse"
And? Xenoverse is not official canon (before you bring up SS4, just don't. That's an entirely different thing). Super Buu can absorb energy just like 18 and 17 in Xenoverse, too. Are you saying Super Buu in canon can absorb energy?
The big problem here is that this directly contradicts the Daizenshuu which states 18 and 17 are NOT energy absorption models.
It doesn't matter if she can absorb energy or not because 18 far outclassed captain marvel.
Nice, back to back death battle
after a few seasons of deathbattle, Im actually happy that you acted uninterested towards the sponser, rather than acting like you love it and nodding constantly
its awesome you played the megaman x series games!! when you said i said hell yeah a little to loud XD but glad your back Ris!!
yes, they call it super saiyan god super saiyan is renamed super saiyan blue.
android 18 doesn't absorb powers, that was a different cyborg
epixsss she has been shown doing it in the games and they say if they use noncanon sources for one ther other gets it for fairness that's why spinoffs are taken into account
Screwattack takes all the feats of a character, canon or not. They even used ssj4 Goku which is not canon against Superman.
Ben Sell if that were true than captain marvel should have feats of games she was like ultimate alliance games, contest of champions, etc plus those games messes with the lore, abilities of characters of dragon ball.
Mihai Mercenarul Is that why they dismissed official sources for dragonball in goku vs superman?
Screwattack is and always will be just another IGN/Watchmojo
0:00 turn on captions
WOOP WOOP RIS I LUV UR VIDS
also something i thought about is that they have stated before that KI IS NOT MAGIC!!!!!!!! witch would be very key info
Trex 2500 how?
well from goku v superman they stated that ki is not a form of magic and here they say captain marvel can ABSORB MAGIC for energy(it might have been all energy though pretty sure it was mainly magic) while 18 uses KI
Captain Marvel can absorb many types of energy. Another type that was mentioned in the Death Battle was electricity.
You weren't the only who moved. ScrewAttack had to move so Torrian is busy with moving so it's 2D again probably. though both have 3D models.
Jetz is animating this one, so yeah it's most likely 2d.
I hope Torrian's next fight is soon, like right after Metal Sonic vs Zero hopefully. He's been posting hints about it on his twitter ever since April, and I wanna know what it is. At the very least, it'll definitely be great though.
mad props on your videos keep up the good work
I admit, I was kind of unconvinced of Android 18's ability to absorb energy via projectiles. But since that's deemed canon (for the fight), Captain Marvel definitely didn't have a chance. Furthermore, since Captain Marvel is still a human albeit a superhuman one, she can still get tired while 18 has infinite energy due to her engine. In DBZ, Android 17 boasted how his engine supplied him infinite energy while Piccolo would gradually get worn out.
Also, your reaction to being right and maintaining your win streak was pretty funny. Good for your guess. And thanks again for posting your reactions.
She cant thom she can nullify energy using her energy sheild. But that's it. She's an infinite model, not a absorption model.
You should watch through DBZ Abridged. I know you said you had watched it a while ago (you recognized Vegeta's voice in Death Battle as being from it), but you seemed to imply that you hadn't watched it in a long time. A watch through would be great! Though if you want to learn about canon from it, keep in mind that basically everything they say about Popo is made up (he's a genie and that's about it). Otherwise they're surprisingly close.
I think it was after the megazord and voltron they started showing both again.
Good job on the streak, Ris oh and 18 and 17 don't absorb energy (screwattack messed up there) They have their own limitless ki
They reveal character short bios way before the recent ones.
"Hulk isn't a planet buster is he?"
Someone show this man world war hulk
@ScrewAttack since you guys include every official source this is how the battle should have happen. First, Carol Danvers should have been given access to the Time Stone since she has been seen using it in Marvel vs Capcom: Infinite teaser trailer. Second, the infinity stones are consider singularities based off the explanation of the MCU Collector. Third, the energy from the stones can be drained based of what Arsenal did in Avengers Assemble. Fourth, Carol can use the Time Stone's power to completely freeze 18 in time removing her speed. This was shown possible when Hit was able to completely freeze time on both Goku and Vegeta. Fifth, Carol can absorb enough of the Time Stone's energy to go full-on Binary, but save enough to continue to have the power over time. She only needed 81% of a White Hole's energy to go full-on Binary. Lastly, 18 still frozen in time, Carol unleashes every single last drop of Binary's energy into a planet(s) busting attack onto 18. Time unfreezes and 18 is hit by the force of that attack in an instant giving her no time to make the decision to absorb the energy. 18 is obliterated.
MediaMarvel Dude, videogame and movie sources are not ok. Even so, Android 18 can take Star level attacks since introduction, and she has trained since then.

The Hulk is a planet buster if he gets mad enough. he's actually held 2 halfs of a planet together after it blew up
I know a bunch of people are commenting on it, but yeah, Android 18 doesn't take other people's energy, at least not from a distance. I've never used her in Dragonball Xenoverse, but from the footage they show, it seems to only be a contact thing, not sucking up from a distance. As far as I know, the only Android capable of doing sucking up Energy through his skin, was Super 17 in Dragonball GT.
YOUR CHANNEL IS JUST AS AWESOME AS YOU ARE!!! ^^
@Ris Grestar ScrewAttack didn't want Carol to win against a Dragon Ball character. They say they use every official information, but they didn't use the fact that Carol had access to the Time Stone based off the Marvel vs Capcom: Infinite teaser trailer. With the Time Stone, which is consider a singularity, Carol could have absorb enough energy to become full-on Binary and have total control over time giving her the match. They didn't even include Carol's healing factor, but they did include 18's energy absorption ability in her game which is as close to contradictory as you can get. And don't say they don't use power-ups available to all playable characters because they did it in the Final Fantasy match-ups. They, also, use game trailers as a source when they used it to determine Scout's durability. They purposely prevented Carol from reaching her maximum potential because they gave the Power Stone to Mega Man in DBX. I don't care who is the winner as long as the information is sound, but this one had left out so much crucial information that you have to question their motivation behind this match-up.
Also didn't alternate 18 get obliterated by future Trunks. So they show when Carol was defeated but not 18. Remember alternate 18 got killed by an energy attack.
This Death Battle is LITERALLY the one I have ever had issue with. I always loved their analysis. Hulk vs Doomsday was so well explained that my respect for them grew new heights, but they lost a great deal of my respect by short changing Carol.
MediaMarvel On your second note I will say this... the 18 that was killed was an alternate timeline and weaker version of 18. She is easily a planet buster but she cares too much about the earth to outright destroy it like most characters in DBZ. Though this battle was set up from the beginning with both being nerfed hard.
ShadowJoey777 I see what you are saying, however Future Trunks destroying alternate 18 and Buu turning 18 into chocolate are the only instances in which we see how 18 handles energy-based attacks. Also, even though current 18 was quote "stronger" than alternate 18 that doesn't mean anything about her durability, since a much stronger android, Super Android 13, was being destroyed by an energy-based attack.
MediaMarvel Android 13 was never cannon but hey even that word has lost its meaning in death battle, also yes 18 isn't show to handle certain situations all that well but she does take no based attacks well enough. DBS is evidence enough of that hell 17 who was supposed to be weaker than her can fight toe to toe with blue goku. 18 can't absorb energy period. They treat every thing as evidence without thinking logically as the absorbing grab is a gameplay mechanic rather than an accurate description of her ability. Sorry for the run on paragraph.
Uh Ris, I think the link to the original video is incorrect. Anyways, good to see another on of your videos.
+Joshua Diaz Oh, thank you!
Nice Reaction! As Always.
The hulk has literally shattered planets, with ease.
Yes, if and only if he's mad enough.
Tyrannos Greed So has Vegeta and she wrecked his shit
+Yeah, I mean, c'mo, Ris, it's one of his titles XD But yeah that's the thing about Hulk, they can make him fight anyone and lose/stalemate with the reason that he wasn't mad enough at the time. Adjustable power levels FTW
Constructive criticism is needed for ScrewAttack to stay on track. Which is why this Death Battle is a lot battle than the Goku VS Superman fights.
also: they do both next time but First do a personal Ad for their First Membership now
Hulk is far beyond a planet buster, honestly tons of things were wrong here tho 18 does win IMO cause Carol can't stand up against a serious hulk unless she is binary
But couldn't she just absorb his energy until he falls unconscious from sheer exhaustion?
I feel you. I'm getting tired of them sponsoring Blue Apron too.
13:35 Yes. 18's top speed is Mach 446+, whereas Capt. Marvel's speed is Mach 247.
Hulk Is a Planet-buster, kind-of, he's been launched into space, and destroyed a meteor the same size as earth with one punch!
I only guessed the winner TWICE this season
Wait, did you stop watching DBZA?
(I assume it, because you didn't really know 18.)
You were the reason I started watching that show,
so you should watch it yourself XD.
It's very good ^^.
When will they do Beerus vs Darkseid
No the Red Ribbon Army was not all Androids/Cyborgs in fact I think in Dragonball Android Number 8 was the only Android we saw. point is the majority of the Red Ribbon Army where humans.
UPDATE
Ben went to Twitter and addressed the energy absorption-issue...with an apology. He himself went digging in the manga and found a clear line saying, 17 and 18 DON'T absorb energy. He and the team missed that line and made a wrong assumption. The original result is still the same, but this detail was wrong, and he is sorry about it.

All living things, kneel before your master... oh wait, false start.
yeah they call it Super Saiyan Blue now instead of Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan.
Ok so I’m going to make this short if you don’t think hulk isn’t a planet bluster then you haven’t watched enough marvel my friend
if they are using all sources then i bet archie metal has a weird feat.
Are you ever wrong?
+Rockenoon to the moon Yes, but so far I think I've been right this whole season :D
also to all who keep complaining about OH 18 CANT ABSORB ENERGy NAH NAH they got that info from the games of dbz and guess who made those games..... FING DBZ so yes besides 18 wouldnt need it to beat marvel
no android 18 uss ki but they said ms marvel could absord energy so ot sure if they fall together
The problem here is the manga (comic) states that she can't do this but Screwattack still put it up and tried to defend their claim. They said that 18 not being able to do it wasn't directly stated or hinted at however it was in fact stated by Trunks that 17 and 18 couldn't absorb energy, instead they had an infinite energy supply. I agree with you with 18 being able to take Captain Marvel without that ability.
+Sean Fleetman TBH Screwattack is being stubborn as hell at this point. Geekdom even directly linked the Daizenshuu bit about the models for the androids and even showed the Trunks scan you're talking about and they still haven't responded yet.
agreed my friend
I'm impressed I dont know much about captain marvel back then but I had a gut feeling android 18 had a better chances winning and the energy absorption was the main factor my wild guess why some say 18's doesn't absorb or didnt mention it was either she forgot she can do that or if she did know she probably didnt need to use it unless it was necessary so that could be the reason but I'm happy with the results and looks like marvel comics might have found a worthy foe with dbz lol
14:12 she reminds me of Firestorm from DC comics
Ris, I kinda feel like the volume of your videos has decreased a lot.
+YAR Oracool It might have; moving and switching USB ports and the like can make regulating that sort of thing tricky.
Yeah, I didn't know who would win either. I just went with what I grew up with, and rooted for Android 18 to win.(I didn't know shit about Captain Marvel, besides what Death Battle mentioned)
actually she can't absorb energy. that is just an ability unique to the games.
Ris Grestar PLAY SSF2 BETA PLZ!!
We were both right about 18 you have still been right 2 more times than me.
18:13 Actually it is pronounced "chi", but sometimes spelled qi, it's still pronounced the same way it's sometimes spelt.
you can also pronounce it as ki (key)
Except 18 can't actually absorb energy…
Don't read if you don't want to get spoiled.
Zero wins. Lucario vs Renamon is next.
Yes
I dunno like 1000th?
The Marvel universe has some of the hardest hitters in all of fiction.
The one above all - Eternity - Living Tribunal - Beyonder and even the Phoenix force.
Dragon ball's got nothing on The one above all.
foxhounde True, the Dragon Ball universe doesn't have any true omnipotent characters (Zeno is questionable), but characters like freiza have been planet, and star level since their introduction. First form freiza destroyed a planet with 10x gravity as earth with complete ease, and is over 120x that in his final form. Android 18 is at least able to destory stars, and could probably destroy our solar system with relative easy.
EDIT: These are factual statements confirmed by the anime/manga, and Android 18 is confirmed greater than freiza.
Hulk pinned The Beyonder to the ground by his face and he couldn't stand back up. It was hilarious.
I highly recommend you to watch Dragonball Z and if you're going to watch an English I highly recommend the Kai Dub or, say screw that and just watch Dragonball Z Abridged.
I really don't like who they got to voice Captain Marvel. I'm sure she is a great voice actor, but it seemed off.
Android 18 cannot absorb energy. Other than that, pretty good.
Ris is eating ritz lol
Chi and Ki are the same thing. Chi is the Chinese word, and Ki is Japanese. As long as you aren't being racist, I don't think it matters which pronunciation you use. The only time it really matters is when you are talking to a devout anime fan or Otaku (but the word Otaku is actually I resulting in Japan, so don't use that word)
Insulting not resulting. Kindle are hard to type on.
Ms Marvel can only take a few punches from the Hulk
I hate how death battle wants to calculate the strengbt and speed of dbz. They just cant, dbz cant be calculated at all. As kids goku and krillin already moved faster than sound and even light. Now imagine super saiyan and more now with god forms and ultra instinct. They are just too overpowered for anyone, and i mean anyone. Well saitama, and popeye the sailor might have a chance
this is one of the worst death battles done by screw attack, so ill informed and literally nothing about their scaling was even remotely correct
Midlsonicvszero
Zero is way cooler than Metal Sonic but he's still gonna get his ass beat. Remember last time metal sonic was on DB.....
Mac Cheesey he was on one minute melee,but got rekt by mecha sonic
Alan Nava "No Research" obviously an op fan created chapter is going to win
Screw attack makes stuff up. 18 actually stated that she CAN NOT absorb energy like other androids could. Death battle sucks
Oblismal Fright she can in the games but yes your right.
Oblismal Fright Are you seriously gonna say that it sucks because of one mistake? They take info from every source they can find except fan speculation and crazy fanboy stuff like "Naruto can destroy the entire multiverse at 1% base form" and such. Sure, they don't do it with everyone, but they do it with most.
Oblismal Fright Dealing with aspects from different canons is tricky but here I can let it slide because her opponent is a comic book character, where doing so is pretty much a requirement. If you pull from multiple sources on one, you need to do it for the other.
they take stuff from every source that doesn't contradict them. there are guides that states superman is not limitless.
None of the marvel characters are stronger than the DBZ characters, I loved this death battle.
40TH!... Close enough. XD
18 is "possibly" planet level? First-Form Frieza effortlessly destroyed Planet Vegeta (Which had 10x Earth's gravity) with his finger, and Frieza's Final Form was 240x his First Form's power. Even in an improved mechanical body Frieza was jobed by Trunks who got his ass bodied by 18. 18 should at minimum be more than 1,000x planet level (both offensively and defensively)
Furthermore when you look at COMBAT speed rather that TRAVEL speed Goku passes light speed at the very latest by the Saiyan Saga, and even saying Goku hit it just when he arrived on Namek would leave Goku more than 1,600x slower than his SSJ1 form during the Frieza fight, meaning 18 should be well above 1,600x light speed.18 also can't absorb energy, that was 19/20's gimmick.
As for Metal Sonic vs Zero, unless Zero has speed feats putting him several thousand times the speed of light or Death Battle lies their way to underpowering Metal it is going to be a short fight. Metal Sonic is a copy of Sonic who in the comics made and threw a ball of water which hit a badnik in the span of 0.00000000000001 milliseconds, which puts Sonic and anyone who can match his speed (like Tails, Knuckles, Shadow, and Metal) so fast even the fastest version of The Flash would be jealous. However I suspect this is another rigged fight where they are going to deliberately underpower a Sonic character so that Nintendo (or in this case Capcom) can beat them (They scrounged through every little thing they could to dismiss everything they could for Knuckles while getting any little thing they could spin to boost DK).
not all screw attack death battle is honest they screw cloud from final fantasy making link win remember they didn't include the summon. and i know the butt hurt link fan boys going to say yeah right link is strong in every ways even when link use that majura mask or not screw attack knows that majura mask is not strong as final fantasy summon that's way they didn't include both link majura mask and final fantasy summon i understand link fans loved playing Zelda they loved the game but you have to be open minded and be honest with them selfs. poor little cry baby link fans kids. screw attack is a bunch of link fan boys of course its not fair
I find it funny anymore how DB severely lowballs DBZ. 18 CANNOT absorb energy, only 19 and 20 could. And they're the inferior models. 18 is far faster than what they say, and incredibly stronger than what they say. "possibly the planet" seriously guys? they've been planet busters since the Saiyan Saga. 18 is easily dwarf star level. Go to seththeprogrammer's channel, he's explained and debunked Goku v Superman (both vids) Buu v Kirby, and Gara v Toph all with proper power scaling. DB has gotten the scaling wrong since day one, lowballing all of DBZ. and in my opinion it's just to get views.
