Post by cobra_commander »

Going off the question MOTA raised in another thread I just read. Who would win?

I would have to go with X-O. The guy nearly beat Solar in a 1-on-1! With that much power Iron Man doesn't stand a chance.

Step up to the plate IMJ... :lol:

I think Iron Man has a good chance depending at what stage he fights Aric (Prior to Unity? After melding with the suit for 1500 in stasis?). Stark has the advantage in that he's built the suit and knows it's capabilities... Aric at times was even surprised himself at what the suit could do.

I voted for X-O only because I couldn't vote for ice-cream or pizza. :(

One thing's for sure, Iron Man is not an accomplished warrior. Without the suit, he'd be toast. Aric would kick his butt simply by pounding on him.

Besides, Iron Man has a limited power supply, The XO armor doesn't (as far as I've seen). If nothing else, Aric could simply wait for Tony's suit to drain of power, THEN go for the kill.

Iron Man's getting creamed for sure.

But X-O is real. Iron Man is just a comic book character. So X-O would win.
I would agree with you, but then we'd both be wrong.

The question should be

X-O Manowar (a real 3d person) versus Iron Man (mighty mouse in sheeps clothing) who would lose?

We...the message board readers... :P

Tony has been in the suit longer and is constantly upgrading it, so I would have to give Iron Man the advantage, but really it could go either way.

I'm an iron man fan, but looking at both schematics, which I've got, both the iron manual and the XO, looking at it scientifically, XO would win by the sheef fact of power.

Iron Man has limits. XO doesn't

(of course, if I were a bigger geek, I cold go dig up the iron manual and XO file and start to quote from each..................but hell no! ) :thumb: :thumb:

X-O is the Energizer Bunny of armored heroes. Besides, what is Stark going to do when he needs to pi$$ or take a dump assuming the fight lasts that long. :hm:

I've got to go with Stark.

They'd square up once, Aric would hand him his *SQUEE*... Stark'd escape by virtue of a plot device then build a suit of armour specifically to counteract the X-O menace.

The return bout would see Stark victorious, and possibly drunk.

Iron Man, for years, always played out like a Rocky film with metal suits... can't argue with history.

The real contest would be to determine who can outdrink who.

I say Aric can hold his liquor better than Stark.

Not if Stark's played by RDJ. Dude can abuse some serious substance.
