Talk:Sarge vs The Soldier/@comment-25936854-20160320123153

I *want* Soldier to win, but the Halo character's armor, combined with- correct me if I'm wrong, here- their tendency to carry around at least five weapons at any given time gives me the impression that whoever adopts this will have Sarge come out on top.

Still, I like to think that the Soldier would still have some chance against Sarge. Personally, if I had the privilege of writing for this page, I'd strongly suggest taking into account the Soldier's high durability, unpredictability, and adaptability, and all aspects thereof, as major elements in his favor. Among other things, Soldier's ability to Rocket-Jump, as well as ride the explosions of his enemies, would really throw the Halo characters for a loop, I think.

Now, this could just be my bias speaking- I fully acknowledge that it is exactly that, in fact- but if Soldier is allowed to withdraw any of his usable weapons on the fly, as he's shown being able to do in the TF2 Battle Royale, then I like to think that the Soldier might have an even chance. Many of his very situational alternatives could give him a substantial edge that I don't think Master Chief, or any of the other Halo characters, would be prepared for. After all, who in the Halo universe expects to be damaged by an enemy landing on him/her, or a mere shovel that becomes more than twice as deadly simply from its user being airborne via explosion?

Well, those are my two cents. We'll see how this goes.
