Description[]
These interstellar travelers found themselves exploring a beautiful and dangerous planet with people that needed their aid. While there, they met and befriended the locals and curbstomped the bad guys. What they didn’t plan on doing, however, was duking it out with each other. Time for a duel on an alien planet!
Introduction[]
Wiz: In space, some planets and their people are less equipped to deal with threats than others.
Boomstick: But sometimes, outside forces help to turn the tide in good’s favor!
Wiz: Like F, the former Jedi apprentice!
Boomstick: And Fox McCloud, leader of Star Fox! He’s Wiz and I’m Boomstick!
Wiz: And it’s up to us to analyze their weapons, armor and skills to find out who would win a Death Battle!
F[]
Wiz: In a galaxy far, far away, there lived a group of peacekeepers and warriors called the Jedi. With the power of the Force, they were capable of many great things.
Boomstick: Yeah, but the one thing they weren't able to do in time was see that the increasingly obviously evil Senator Palpatine was actually Darth Sidious, a Sith Lord and a guy who probably stayed in the pool for one too many decades.
Wiz: When the time was right, Darth Sidious made his move and started Order 66, a command that would make the Clone Troopers kill their Jedi generals en masse. Order 66 ravaged the Jedi, the once numerous group of warriors reduced to a small few.
Boomstick: One of these Jedi, a young padawan named F, was one of the lucky few who got away in time. However, the one thing she couldn’t escape from was being given an awful name. I mean, really. Can we talk about how unfortunate she is to be named after a bad grade?
Wiz: But you’re named after a gun in the Evil Dead franchise.
Boomstick: But that’s a good thing! The Evil Dead franchise is the magnum opus of all horror movies and you know it, Wiz!
Wiz: Okay, okay, are you going to stop padding this analysis out or are we going to analyze F?
Boomstick: Okay, fine. But just to let you know, we're watching the entire Evil Dead franchise when we're done all this, Wiz. You owe me.
Wiz: Look, we're getting off track. (Wiz clears his throat) During her trek through space, she stumbled upon a more nature-centric world named than most named Keelia, with people that lived with the Force, or Magina as the locals knew it, as part of their daily life, and they used it to spiritually bond with their planet.
Boomstick: So Avatar?
Wiz: Huh?
Bookstick: You just said the plot of Avatar.
Wiz: It's not the plot of Avatar, Boomstick. Now, let's move on. Despite only going to Keelia to meet up with her friend, Valco, F found herself became increasingly attached to this strange world, and in particular, gained an interest in a young married couple, the groom Asu and the bride Haru who hailed from a village that soon found itself in a very serious predicament.
Boomstick: Yeah, it turns out that there were a group of criminals that used Separatist droids to put the village in peril, and their leader, Izuma, kidnapped Haru. F and Valco fought and defeated them like it was nothing and F flew off for planets unknown. You know, Wiz, she really doesn't have much going for her.
Wiz: Not quite, Boomstick. As a Jedi, F is capable of many incredible feats, such as using the Force to stop lasers in midair and fire them back at her enemies. She is also quite skilled with a lightsaber, which, coupled with her impressive speed, is what took down Izuma in the first place.
Boomstick: Yeah, and lightsabers can cut through most metals like they were wet paper, so F isn't messing around.
Wiz: And, thankfully, it was that seriousness that saved Keelia, and the village bride that lived there. Let it be said that the Force, or Magina, is not to be trifled with.
Izuma: What are you, some kind of monster?! (F turns on her lightsaber)
F: I am a Jedi. (F positions herself to defeat Izuma in one swing and slash Izumi's hand off)
Fox McCloud[]
Boomstick: The Lylat System. Space has never had a more chaotic system of planets. It's a world of anthropomorphic animals, floating heads with hands and dinosaurs that always ask "Where are we going?!" like kids on a field trip. Tricky, you annoying reptile, you're lucky you're fictional or I'd turn you into a wallet!
Wiz: Are you done?
Boomstick: Not yet. (Boomstick draws a picture of Tricky getting crushed by something) Okay, now I'm done.
Wiz: Well, anyway, in the Lylat system, a corrupting influence was rearing its head. Andross, a Cornerian scientist banished to Venom, was beginning to cause trouble, and one of the Cornerian Army's best generals, General Pepper, needed to look into this. Thus, the Star Fox team, which consisted of James McCloud, Pigma Dengar and Peppy Hare, were tasked with investigating Venom.
Boomstick: There was just one pork-flavored problem. Pigma was on Andross’ payroll and he sold out the team. While Peppy got out while he could, James wasn’t so lucky. James had died on Venom, and Peppy Hare told the news to Fox. He didn't take it well.
Wiz: Utterly infuriated by the situation, Fox abandoned the Cornerian Academy to pursue a new, more personal goal: honoring his father memory, and that meant remaking the Star Fox team from the ground up.
Boomstick: It's moments like these that make thinking about my dad worth while.
Wiz: With original Star Fox member Peppy Hare, the mechanically gifted Slippy Toad, the skilled pilot Falco Lombardi, and his future wife (in one possible future) Krystal, Fox McCloud became the leader of the new Star Fox team, and his leadership and adventurousness would prove vital when the Lyle System found itself in conflict once again with the evil Andross.
Boomstick: Du-du-duuuuuh!!
Wiz: And it wouldn't just be Andross that Fox went toe to toe with. A race of anglerfish men, biomechanical bugs and even a planet up to the brim with prehistoric life were no match for Fox, and much of this is owed greatly to Fox's arsenal.
Boomstick: He pilots an Arwing, the Star Fox Team's bread and butter. It carries bombs that can take out large groups of ships at once and an upgradable laser that can not only be charged, but thanks to the Arwing being able to lock onto targets, Fox doesn't often miss. But that's not all!
Wiz: It can also walk on the ground.
Boomstick: It's like an ostrich of death, only metaler!
Wiz: Metaler?
Boomstick: Well, yeah, it's a giant metal ostrich, Wiz!
Wiz: It looks nothing like an ostrich, Boomstick.
