I called Omni-Man and Bowser winning.
Update: I mentioned the wrong poll. The actual poll Among Us vs Fall Guys was in. Loss out to Discord vs Bill Cipher.
Instead what we actually gotten is more or less a famous joke fight. I wasn't happy with the last time they ended an season with a joke fight. Still one of my least favorite episodes in fact. This upcoming fight loss in a poll where Discord vs Bill Cipher won a few years ago. They did discussed this on their podcast show. A fight I originally didn't even plan on predicting until now you are welcome by the way.
Fall Guys vs Among Us, I am quite serious. We're about to get something this unusual to happen on the show. Usually they use characters video game wise that's notably similar. We just gotten Bowser vs Eggman, a fantastic episode at that. This is so incredibly different many might enjoy it for that alone. I will try to explain both of them despite never actually play em.
To clarify, yes on different PC services I have access to them. Fall Guys is an competitive obstacle game. You play against a lot of players while adapting on the fly. Among Us is more like not quite Dead by Daylight or games similar to that. Ideally you do have a killer role that could be a few people or just one person.
It's more directly similar to Scream movie franchise as well as Scream show. Personally I kinda see the show being sorta two similar shows rolled together that might be just me. Back to this, Imposters are hidden among a group of people with the goal of killing everyone. To me, the premise is way more interesting.
We got this rather light, competitive multiplayer game against a more serious, darker multiplayer game. This became huge in the early days of COVID 19. Let's be honest, most people were staying home. Thus, the rate of this becoming popular actually increased at a faster rate. I will say it is no question an outside the box idea, I'll support that.
At the same time, it kinda doesn't make much sense. It's likely going to be an team battle. The last major one excluding the recent war we gotten was Red vs Blue. Yes as in the famous web show before Rooster Teeth went down for good. I do see a lot of people enjoying this. I really wish it wasn't the season finale. It's not going to get labeled as the worst by default.
I will still label it among the most disappointing season finales. Yes even not seeing the episode prior to me stating that, how criminal of me? Obviously this isn't going to be an one on one fight. The best way to portray both franchises is doing an team battle. This would also help showing the possibilities. This quickly became very clear cut.
Verdict
Fall Guys
There's a lot of notable factors I couldn't ignore here. For starters, Among Us characters will constantly become more paranoid overtime. There could be one or more trying to kill em all. They are used to being on an space ship. Thus, they are more used to a more limited, closed environment. In vice versa, all of that is virtually the exact opposite.
Fall Guys is more friendly competitive. Imposters trying to manipulate em is kinda pointless. It's obvious Among Us characters are notably smarter. At the same time, I also could argue they have characteristics that's more cartoony like. They can easily break through walls as well as tank a long fall. This by itself limits their options especially Imposters' kill methods.
Not a lot of people knows rubber can easily withstand force to a degree. Therefore, don't be surprise rubber gets reference a lot within the actual episode. They could make an argument, Fall Guys' bodies can easily tank bullets, knifes and more. If they can survive a long fall with no problem. I don't think they would have trouble being out in space either.
The only weapon that made me question things is laser beams. Which vaporized a normal Among Us character's body more over half their total body mass. Impressive but they gotta compare that to an Fall Guys' body biology. It's possible they might be harm by laser beams. The crazier possibility being laser beams simply bounce off of them as well.
Fall Guys are often competing in a series of events outside. Which also helped in giving them the stamina as well as speed advantage in this fight. Obviously, Fall Guys is more about physical sports while Among Us plays heavily on paranoia as well as suspense. Among Us characters are more likely going to turn on each other.
Which would be bad considering this is an team battle. There's a few notable abilities Among Us could be given access to. Keep in mind, each role has stuff only they could do. Sadly none of them is game changing enough to truly matter here. Sure, an dead Among Us character could use Guardian Angel to protect one of the living Among Us characters.
There's also shape shifting that doesn't include direct characteristics of biology. They could hide inside vents as well as turn invisible to a degree. Most Fall Guys characters are virtually the same across the board. Imposters won't get far trying to bite em either. Imagine a small person size chew toy for your dog.
This also means they can't break their necks either. How can you considering they're rubber like bodies? Fall Guys characters do have skeletons. But having an biology similar to rubber is virtually pointless. They could be attempting this for hours to not get far at all. It's more or less brains vs brawn. Where usually brains wins over brawn on Death Battle.
Although Asta previously beaten Deku on their show. The deeper view of how Among Us characters works ultimately made this a surprisingly straight forward outcome. Fall Guys could be careless to causing the space ship to crash. They easily survive the impact while some Among Us characters won't. Stats wise, Among Us characters isn't even close.
If you wanna be technical about it. Let's do this the correct way then. Among Us characters do offer more variety of abilities. Despite a lot of those plays into different roles. They are notably a lot smarter than the more simple minded Fall Guys characters. Mostly the evil Among Us characters has a few kill methods that simply won't work on em.
This fight likely going to happen on their space ship. You would think this might throw Fall Guys off their game. Well you would be wrong, dead wrong. Yes Fall Guys characters would be a lot more predictable. They are also more trusting towards each other. The exact opposite situation for Among Us characters.
Once again stats virtually speaks for itself. Not even close, Fall Guys stomps here. It also doesn't help Among Us characters can't keep up with their endurance as well as intensity. You got to realize Among Us is a much slower pace game. Even the more supernatural abilities Among Us characters has isn't that game changing.
Even if they were to have possession, it still wouldn't help much. Shape shifting is more or less used as a deception towards other Among Us characters anyway. Team work is going to be a huge deal for later on this fight. Among Us is essentially fighting them as well as themselves. It's inevitable Fall Guys going to come out on top this team battle.
Winner: Fall Guys (Fall Guys)
Another possible factor why people had to request this. These characters do look similar to a degree. Both their multiplayer games is still popular today. They also had a few crossovers. I am kinda glad indie gaming getting represented on the show. Honestly, not my favorite team battle concept. But at least it's so unusual enough to surprisingly work in an Death Battle episode.
