Hypotheitcal vs battles against Yautja

#1

So here is a hypotheitcal I kinda want to see you guys debate this:
Lycans (RE8) vs Yautja.
Essentially you can do two scenarios with this, the first is a typical 1 v 1 with all the lycan types (hammer bois), (Normies), (speedy all four bois), & (heavy bois) against different Yautja whether it’s custom builds from phg, a clan or a singular Yautja go for it!
Scenario two is placing a singular predator in the events of RE8 before Ethan enters the village you can select which hunter from the flims, comics, novels, or games you want to fight this horde of lycans (or unno the entire game if you want to do that.)

Also please don’t be toxic within the comments this is just a debate no need to get angry over it.

Pretty sure if a dude with a knife can kill them it’s an easy stomp for a predator

I didn’t know there had been any new games since RE6.

Jokes aside, Underworld Werewolves would be a decent match for Yautja. I’d like to see that. I’d rather see one go up against a Terminator though. On screen.

in general the predators kill aliens… so lycans are lower tier inmo

i dont think a terminator is a strong as a pred… and one disc or plasma shot would eaisly make a t-800 scrap metal.

A t1000 could possibly kill a predator.

#6

Term actually would kick the shit out of a Predator in a physical confrontation if they were fighting in character and the Predator wasn’t some cybernetic specialist like Lasershot or whatever.

I know they’re at the very least resistant to Plasma weaponry and would force Predator to ditch the usual hi tech weapons.

Terminators (T800s) are stronger but are also vulnerable to plasma weapons. However if one had access to it’s own futuristic weapons then that levels things. The disc might not do what you’d expect either since they are a hyper alloy combat chassis.

A T1000 is a different ball game and would defeat a pred 9 times out of 10.

#8

T800 had to be put in a hydraulic press, they don’t exactly go down without being totally destroyed. Pred can’t hide from them with cloaking, can’t trick them, can’t scare them. In a 1v1, predators wouldn’t hold up.

Exactly. A huge weapon for the pred is fear. Terminators have none.

#10

I think any other Lycans apart from RE’s will most likely put a real challenge.

#11

Preds are physically weaker than bears. And they die to katanas, machetes etc. Hammer werewolf and swarm tactics are a wrap if we’re talking a physical confrontation.
Ethan has wolverine healing factor and RE one-man-army training lol.

their sole advantage is being invisible blowing holes in things from far away like the 1st movie. Like yeah theyre physically stronger than humans but thats not really a sci-fi feat & they lose plenty of crossovers because they’re just space tarzan with a gun at the end of the day. The second people know what they’re up against preds stop being a threat, moreso things that can see through their cloak.

doesnt help that theyre basically blind and require a technological crutch to even see which results in them getting ambushed or outsmarted by the thing they’re hunting. Losing the mask is gg.

I put them on par with Halo sword elites without the group strategy & war tactics. And preds have pretty obvious weaknesses in comparison sitting around scrolling through vision modes.

I think the main problem here is that the predators we see in the movies are either honor bound or staging a hunt and, if they are not restricted by these rules, they are probably much stronger. It would be like the difference between a deer hunt and military raid. I think that’s why a lot of people enjoy watching Wolf in AVPR, because he’s just ripping through anything in the way of eradicating the aliens without honor limitations.

For example, in the question of the terminator, I think the predators would not see them as prey but rather an extension of human technology. Therefore, they would use long range firepower to destroy them, because they wouldn’t care about collecting a trophy from a terminator. That’s just how I understand the Yautja lore anyway.

#13

In predator hunting grounds… the t8000 would even kill the whole fireteam

Movie wise a wolf type pred would lay waste to 10 t800’s easy

A young predator would easily see the robots weakness of walking slow and with alien tech they can spot weakness with in the robot system… throwing an emp would destroy all circuits resulting in malfunction

The honor crutch and the experience card are the worst invention of AvP.

if anything the avp1 preds were a physical exception because they were huge, wolf just runs around pushing xenos like toddlers & they flail around for 2 mins.
Experience has nothing to do with your ability to fire an autoaim caster. Do you really need 1000 years of experience to stab something?
Did 300 years of experience still make falconer lose to a guy with a sword?

people act like a higher rank status is super saiyan lol. i could be the best lion hunter in the world that doesnt make me able to run up and punch a lion and win 1v2 where im at a physical disadvantage. they have the same physical limits, preds do not magically level up.
you could argue they opted not to just shoot their enemy with their ship but its irrelevant.

#15

Invention of AvP? They had an honor code in the first two movies as well.

#16

I mean people talking about honor when a pred eventually just gets outsmarted and loses while theyre being cocky. Basic hunting code of not killing unfit trophies? fine. avp extended universe klingon honor ti be touted as an excuse when they die? terrible.

Was the Halo wars arbiter limited by his honor? no he was being a cocky asshole and got outsmarted and stabbed in the throat while being the highest ranking most skilled swordsman bla bla. obviously walking up grabbing your opponent to gloat despite you having a gun is just stupid.

mr. black and his dishonorable crew watching his buddies die one by one & not getting “serious” or whatever the excuse is?
theyre just fuckups really

#17

My species would fuck up the Yautja!!!

#18

Yeah. Predators is probably the most inconsistent when it comes to following some sort of code. On the one hand they’re not afraid to break the traditional rules, but they also hold back multiple times. Especially with the Falconer and Tracker.

Yeah. Jungle hunter could have ended the movie right here.

But decided punching the shit out of Arnold first was more “honorable?” No, I think cockiness killed the Yautja.

#19

The Super Predators don’t strike me as the honorable type. In fact, what they’re doing might be highly frowned upon by the Yautja society. Probably to the point that they’re outcast. Hence, why they strung one up and left him there. To humiliate him for looking down on them.

#20

Yeah im in the cockiness killed the yautja camp.
Its like saying theyre all honorable for not just blasting the protagonists with their ship from the orbit of space.

they dont get “i was just holding back lol” points because they choose humor themselves with a fight they 100% assume they will win against a target a third of their size & then fuck up.

the only thing that ever seemed cut and dry is no killing women and children because same applies to deer.
