Talk:Pit VS Sora/@comment-25620113-20160920050105

While I still think Sora wins, Pit would have Palutena as it is what he normally would have in a fight. There have been several episodes that have actually broken the no help rule such as Iron Man VS Lex (Toy had Jarvis), Snake VS Sam (Both combatants had their respective supports), Pokemon VS Digimon, Dante VS Bayo and Meta VS Carolina.

Ben himself stated "...technically the 'no outside help' rule does not actually exist... ...Because there is an endless number of characters who could be in a Death Battle with such a variety of differences in ability, every single match-up needs to be looked at individually without influence from a lot of restrictive rules. The idea of no outside help, for example, isn't a rule because 'outside help' applies to each character differently. While each match-up in meant to be one-on-one, the goal is to pit the characters against each other at their prime and maximum potential."
