Description[]
Season 1 Episode 9! Super Mario vs Kid Icarus! Plumber and Angel square off to find out which vast Nintendo arsenal triumphs.
Interlude[]
(Invader)
Wiz: The home of all great and memorable childhood heroes, Nintendo. Today, two of the biggest arsenal dependants collide in the field of battle.
Boomstick: Whether they rely on power ups and form changes, like Mario- the notorious red capped plumber.
Wiz: Or a weapon for every scenario, like Pit- the greatest that Palutena's guard has to offer.
Boomstick: He's Wiz and I'm Boomstick.
Wiz: And it's our job to analyse their weapons, armour and skills to find out who would win a Death Battle.
Mario[]
Boomstick: The icon.
Wiz: Mr Video Games.
Boomstick: Olympic Champion.
Wiz: Grand Prix winner, and the hero of the Mushroom Kingdom.
Boomstick: And a Princess for a girlfriend! Mario has it all! Which is kinda to be expected because of a small deal. That 'small deal' being Mario's - you know- a Star Child.
Wiz: As a Star Child, Mario was always going to be a big deal. The potential and power he possesses as a result of this title has resulted in victory for Princess Peach, and brings doom upon those who have opposed her.
Boomstick: Not really a surprise; Mario is a physical specimen. I mean, when this guy punches a brick, the brick is the one that crumbles!
Wiz: And he has speed and acrobatics that simply shouldn't be possible. Mario is, simply put, the complete package. But even as a peak human, when the villains of the Mushroom Kingdom and beyond step up their game, even Mario must venture into new ways of slaying them.
Boomstick: Thankfully, since 1981, Mario has had more than a few tools and allies along the way.
Wiz: As far as his basic powers go, Mario can harness both pyrokinesis and cryokinesis with the fire and ice flowers.
Boomstick: The flowers themselves can also be used to spurt deadly flames and ice at a foe. So gents, if you're still hurt and want a satisfying measure of payback on the bitch who rejected you at the Christmas Dance, this is an option.
Wiz: Come on Boomstick, you never had a chance. But back to the topic at hand, Mario can use the ice flower as a particularly more versatile weapon as he can freeze a foe and use that icy prison as an attack in itself. The snowballs he throws can also destroy some fire based attacks from Bowser.
Boomstick: Pokemon type logic. Not even once.
Wiz: Thanks to power ups like the Red Star, Mario is also able to glide around the battlefield- for a short time. Otherwise, he can trade off the height and control of flight for a more long lasting ability with the cape and the propeller suits.
Boomstick: There are also several item blocks Mario can use to help spice up his arsenal. There are variations of shells that he can lob at a foe. Green ones travel in straight lines and bounce off walls. Red ones home in and tackle a foe, whereas the Blue Shell / Spiny Shell is like a heat seeking missile, and a trigger of PTSD among even the hardest of Mario Kart racers.
Wiz: He can also use items like icy shells which can freeze over a foe- as seen in Mario Strikers, and through the use of banana peels and bob-ombs, he can form a pretty solid defence if he needs to.
Boomstick: With the lightning, Mario can shrink a foe to tiny sizes, leaving them very vulnerable to a squashing of they're not careful. This transformation is temporary, so Mario will need to take advantage of it in a sharp amount of time.
Wiz: He can use the POW block to create mini quakes that can tremble a foe as well as drop items suspended high in the air. These can be hit up to three times, but won't effect foes that manage to get airborne in time. Some of Mario's stronger skills come from the Mario Galaxy game, where whole new avenues of power ups were introduced. On top of the traditional Fire and Ice flowers, Mario also had access to the Spring Suit, which helps him bounce to incredible heights, but leaves him very susceptible to damage. He also could use the Cloud Suit to summon, well, clouds to reach higher ground. Though, these clouds were very weak and subside after a short while.
Boomstick: He can flatten the competition with the boulder suit. And while he can still jump in it, Mario needs to watch out for edges and gaps because he can't do much mid free fall. The boulder can knock down metal bridges, but sometimes Mario might find himself destroying something he could really, really come to regret.
Wiz: For his quest in Mario Galaxy, Mario was entrusted with Luma by Rosalina. The little star was able to grant power additional strengths and powers. Like the ability to use Launch Stars and fire Star Bits. They were hardly fatal on their own, but they were good at stunning a foe to allow Mario to finish them off.
Boomstick: And... that's about it. Man, some crumby gift.
Wiz: It was enough.
Boomstick: If you say so. Also, recently Mario has gained one more tool in his arsenal. Or rather, it has only become so vital in a recent game. That being Cappy.
Wiz: Although a separate entity to Mario's cap, Cappy was in a world terrorised by Bowser. After the King of Koopas stole his sister, he joined forces with Mario to topple the evil being and save both Cappy's sister and Princess Peach. Cappy offers a boomerang style attack, which involves Mario throwing him at great speed at his foe. On top of that, Cappy can also play defensive, repelling projectiles and deflecting them at foes. But Cappy's most known- and most beneficial perk- is his ability to possess beings.
Boomstick: Once Mario slaps that cap on a foe, their body now belongs to him. He can manipulate the foe to do more or less whatever he wants. When he's done with them, Mario can then de-capture them, leaving them stunned and prime for finishing off.
Wiz: Mario can tap into the raw power of the Star Man power up, granting himself totally invincible for a period of time. With this in play, Mario can run through his foe's attacks as if they were nothing, and he can deal additional damage to enemies around him- enough to straight up kill most standard minions within Bowser's ranks. It can also add additional speed, so once you hear that familiar jingle, well, you're probably already dead.
Boomstick: NANI!?
Wiz: As mentioned though, it is only temporary and Mario can't kill every enemy he comes into contact with. Some can resist for shorter whiles, and some can outlast the whole power up. But if grace and skill won't get the job done, Mario has one more trick he can play.
Boomstick: The Mega Mushroom is about as heavy artillery as Mario can get. It grows Mario to a gigantic size, and makes him invulnerable to standard attacks. He can bulldoze terrain, enemies and can even deliver a Ground Pound so deadly that shit falls from the skies. Anyone right under Mega Mario can kiss their arses goodbye; nobody stands up from underneath that size of a boot.
Wiz: There is a time limit on this power up as well.
Boomstick: But realistically, who's gonna outlast something that size if Mario uses it at close range? (Just don't look at Mario VS Sonic 1 to contradict that. Thanks.)
Mario: It'sa go time!
Pit[]
Wiz: A lost angel boy in the darkness of The Underworld. Pit was surely a dead man, of not for the imprisoned Palutena, the Goddess of Light, granting him two things. A weapon in the form of a magical bow...
Boomstick: And firm orders to collect the Three Sacred Treasures to contend with, and defeat Palutena's evil sister: Medusa.
Wiz: Of course, Pit succeeded. And became the finest member of Palutena's bodyguard unit.
Boomstick: That's while he waits for additional games to the Kid Icarus series. Poor guy's got so much time on his hands. He must be so sick of hearing when Legend of Zelda, Super Mario and Pokemon are releasing yet again.
Wiz: Maybe that time is spent on the target range, polishing off Pit's archery skill. Or sparring with the Centurions. Because no matter how rusty he could, and probably should be, Pit is a combatant of elite level.
Boomstick: Despite only featuring in a handful of games, Pit has actually attained a fairly massive arsenal of weapons. His most symbolic weapon is of course Palutena's Bow. It can fire a never ending supply of Light Arrows and Pit can break it off into two smaller blades. Or he can keep the bow assembled and slice you up that way.
Wiz: The attacks are also homing shots, so there's hardly ever a place to hide when trying to evade the light arrows. Pit can also specialise at close range with various sets of claws. The ones used in this match, will be the Raptor Claws.
Boomstick: They must be pretty flimsy; the dinosaurs died out a damn long time ago.
Wiz: Why don't we use them on you to find out, Boomstick?
Boomstick: Erm... because they're called Raptor Claws, asshole. And besides, you read that description as well as I did: Wounds received by this weapon can be so brutal they refuse to heal. That's right! This asshole of a weapon will slice you up, turn your wounds into sentient beings that refuse to heal off. What. A. Dick.
Wiz: However, these claws are incredibly slow and force Pit to engage in close quarters. Yes, they can launch projectiles of their own but the transition between firing and slashing would probably dictate that snapping from one attack to another is a chore.
Boomstick: Pit can also use the Sonic Cannon, which is a bulky weapon that attacks from long range. The shots generally cut foes to shreds and the continuous fire function covers a massive chunk of ground.
Wiz: While Pit is slower with this weapon, it isn't in his interest to keep moving with it. Of course, he may strafe, but Pit can happily sit back with this weapon and zero in on troubling targets. While they're distracted, they may not even see the charged shots coming their way. But the shots will lose more power if they have to travel extended distances. So Pit has to find the equilibrium between not being close enough to compromise his intent, while not being too far away to actually hit anything.
Boomstick: He can turn on defence in a switch, using Guardian Orbitars- which are small floating shields- he can deflect projectiles and even dish offence right back to his enemies.
Wiz: Unlike the Smash Bros version of the game, Pit's Orbitars don't lose strength over time. They last as long as Pit needs them to and have come in handy even against magic foes.
Boomstick: The guy may have the build of a kid, but Pit can damn well lift. He can lug around Magnus' Club for whole missions and use it to squash all who are too stupid or slow to dodge.
Wiz: The drawbacks are fairly obvious; the clubs are slow and heavy which limit Pit's movement and force him to fight up close. The weapon has decent reach, but beyond that it is useless against enemies at range.
Boomstick: But don't think that because it's slow, it won't hurt. That thing is massive, and only a fool would stay in close range.
Wiz: Pit's load out is also peppered with various items and tools. He has a selection of cards, Flame, Freeze, Poison, Stone and Paralysis. These all allow Pit's weapons to deal damage with additional elemental powers. The card also means that there is an aura around Pit which damages opponents who come too close to him.
Boomstick: He also has the Impact Amplifiers, which increase knock back of his assaults, and the Happy Trigger, which essentially puts his charge shots on steroids.
Wiz: There's also the Water of Life that increases Pit's durability, even after blows that would otherwise kill him. And he has Angel's Feathers which grant him the ability to fly back up to a stage he was knocked down from- without having to burn through the Power of Flight.
Boomstick: Or Pit can make himself extremely annoying and use Dodge Tokens. These little bastards allow Pit to evade all oncoming attacks for a short period. Yes, Pit can dodge into environmental damage, but you try taking a swing at him when he is under the influence of this token and it's a bad day to be you.
Wiz: Pit is able to arm himself with Powers as well. These are little handy tricks he can pull off to help aid him against tougher foes. One example is the Super Armour, which greatly increases his durability. Otherwise, he has the Instant Death Attack, which gives him the opportunity to one shot a foe.
Boomstick: What?!
Wiz: Yep. Pit has a Power that could potentially end the match in one move. Though there is a keyword in that sentence.
Boomstick: Yeah, Power...
Wiz: No, idiot.
Boomstick: You never said that! Yeah, Pit can potentially One Shot his opponent, but that's not to say he would be able to do it consistently. I mean, Wiz has the potential to be a good host, but I wouldn't hold out much hope.
Wiz: Can we just discuss the combatants? Please? He can also use different effects on his opponents. These can be like paralysis, freezing and petrifying them.
Boomstick: Cowards.
Wiz: He can also use Tirelessness to help him run for longer, and fall back on Darkness- which can blind an enemy for a while and can Play Dead.
Boomstick: So can most dogs, Wizard. How does this he-
Wiz: Which turns him invisible and invincible after feigning death. He can catch many foes off balance with it. One side note, is that Pit can survive fatal blows but this puts him in Crisis Mode.
Boomstick: Which means he is essentially like Black and White in Left 4 Dead- next knockdown means death!
Wiz: But the trump cards of Pit's weapons are his access to the Great Sacred Treasure.
Boomstick: This thing is fairly boss. I mean, it was purely designed to go up against Hades- the Lord of the Underworld. And this thing can take a beating; Hades was hammering away at it the whole battle with missiles and other magic attacks, but the thing was still functioning.
Wiz: It can also travel at Ultralight speeds, and can change into different modes based on the situation it is in- including auto pilot. It is armed with powerful light arrows and a large blade of pure light, which was strong enough to cut Hades clean in half.
Boomstick: For a guy who looks like he should be sitting his GCSEs, Pit is quite well loaded. But what else would we expect from a Captain of the Icarus Army?
Wiz: Gullibility and nerdiness aside, Pit is a very capable combatant. And one who should not be reckoned with. So whatever you do, don't mention his wings; it's a bit of a no go.
Pit: Leave it to me! In the name of the heavens, the earth, the humans, and the souls bound for the afterlife... I WILL defeat Hades!
Palutena: Go now, Pit!
Pit: With pleasure!
Intermission[]
Wiz: Alright, the combatants are set. Let's end this debate once and for all.
Boomstick: It's time for a DEATH BATTLE!
Fight[]
Location: Neutral Planet
Starship Mario crashed down to the ground, following a head on collision with a speeding Lightning Chariot. The two vehicles and their drivers spilled to the floor, as Mario back flipped over a crater and landed a few feet away from his assailant. An angel?
"Thanks for messing up the Lightning Chariot, Mario! Don't you know that was a rental?" Pit said angrily, shaking his fist. Mario growled and clenched his fist, punching the ground to summon pyrokinetic energy to his hands. Pit broke off Palutena's Bow and revealed two blades, ready to engage the plumber. "IT'S ON!" Pit cried, leaping forth. "Let'sa go!" Mario responded.
FIGHT!
Mario back flipped away from the cross cuts and threw down wave upon wave of fireballs at Pit. The angel smirked, and summoned his Guardian Orbitars to his sides. The fiery attacks flew back at Mario, who caped them away. He then began charging at Pit, striking with a punch. Pit swiftly slid back, and fired an arrow at Mario. The plumber did a spin attack, sending the arrow back at Pit. With the angel distracted, Mario drove a dropkick into Pit's chest. He then grabbed the angel by the wings and hurled him into a slab of stone. Pit bounced from the wall and grabbed his Palutena Bow, spinning it like a buzz saw.
Mario wall bounced off the debris and went for a punch again, but Pit caught him with his weapon and then reminded Mario how that kick from earlier felt. Mario skidded on the floor, but slowed himself with a hand. He then activated a power up, Flight Mario.
The plumber took to the air, and at first Pit was going to shoot him out of it with his bow, when he paused. "How on Earth is he allowed to fly?" he angrily asked himself, before having to cut his private conversation short and back flip away from a Ground Pound. Mario flew at Pit again, and the two engaged in a brief fistfight. Mario got the better of Pit and hurled him into the ground. Pit landed with a thud, and decided to call on his first item.
Now with a Paralysis Card in play, Pit engaged Mario again, this time shocking Mario with his attacks and stunning the plumber. By now, Mario's flight form was disabled and Pit was wailing on him with strike after strike of electric attacks. Mario threw down fireballs at Pit, but the aura of electricity was able to defend him from the attacks with ease. Frustrated, Mario realised he may need a change of approach.
"What've you got, Mario?" Pit taunted, firing a shot from Palutena's Bow. Mario flipped the attack around as per, but this was a distraction for Mario to get in close with an Ice Flower equipped. The attack froze over the electric defences of Pit. And now Mario was able to attack up close again!
Mario delivered peppered punches and kicks, driving Pit against a wall. Realising Mario was about to hit a stride, Pit grabbed a Boom Spear, and threw it just behind Mario. The explosion rippled across the area, and threw Mario into the air. Pit changed bows for claws, and raked them across Mario's head and chest. Mario got in some strikes as well, but nothing in the exchange was decisive. So Mario opted for a new move. He grabbed his cap, and looked to latch it on Pit. "Euuugggh!" Pit complained, swatting at the cap with his claws. He then went to strike Mario again, but the plumber grabbed him by his outstretched arm and threw him at a building. Pit landed with a thud, and then was blasted back by a Bob-omb that Mario launched at him.
"Mamma Mia..." Pit grumbled, switching to his Sonic Cannon and partnering it with a Happy Trigger. He then let loose a stream of charge shots, which Mario went to repel with Cappy. But the attacks dropped just beneath the efforts of Mario's cap, and detonated just at the plumber's feet. Realising Pit had him suppressed, Mario realised he had little alternative.
(Star)
"WAHOOO!" Mario cried ominously, as he activated a Star and began running through Pit's attacks. Upon seeing what was happening, Pit panicked and called on a Mega Laser to try and obliterate Mario. Not even a scratch. Pit went to run, but Mario delivered enough contact to launch the angel across the area. He then stopped glowing, as the power up ended.
"Now you've done it!" Pit declared, rushing in with his claws again. This time, the pair were causing obvious bruising and cuts on the other's face. But neither angel or plumber wanted to back down. Pit struck with a hard kick, but Mario replied with a low sweeping blow. Pit then jabbed his claws right into Mario's stomach, but Mario was able to use a Spin to throw Pit off. Now Mario was pelting Pit with Green Shells, and the angel began to lose ground.
Pit struck one of the Green Shells, but was therefore distracted from a smack with Mario's cape. As Pit tried to turn back around, his vision was filled with the underside of Mario's cap.
"W-wha?"
"No No No!" Pit yelled, struggling to resist the influence of Cappy. The mind controlling hat was right on Pit's scalp, but the angel was still desperate to fight. He threw a punch at Mario, who caught the fist. A ring slipped from Pit's hand, and Mario caught it cockily, as he gained control of Pit's body. Which is when a shrill voice came from inside Mario's head.
"It's a me, Pit!" Pit taunted, as he was now in possession of Mario's body. The two faced off from different bodies, and Mario- in Pit's body- struggled to understand what the cannon in his possession was. They instead traded punches, with Pit scalding Mario to be careful with his body. Pit piloted Mario's body to knock the cap off the angel, and Cappy went floating away. Pit then set about putting the ring back on his own hand, and gained control of his own body once more. He then smacked the returning cap to a side, which Mario caught in his hand, and placed on his head in a smooth transition.
The pair picked up where they had left off, only this time Mario was armed with his Boulder Suit. He rushed Pit, steamrolling the angel and knocking him back first into a wall. Pit wanted to blast the incoming boulder, but his shots were too slow after he had expended his Happy Trigger. Even the grenades he threw weren't working. So he called on a new weapon instead, the Magnus Club. "Batter up!" he declared, driving the weapon into Mario's face.
The plumber bounced off a wall, coming out of his boulder form and instead using his Ice Flower to close in. He froze Pit's feet to the ground, and then wall bounced off the club and used the leverage to build a flying dropkick. The punt knocked Pit dizzy, and left him struggling to his feet. Pit threw a Poison Cloud at Mario, but the plumber was able to evade with a leap. He then launched Cappy at Pit, who used his Guardian Orbitars to repel it. The cap landed a few feet before Mario, who was able to grab it as he jumped... Straight into a shot from the Magnus Club.
Mario heaved on the floor, and Pit decided he was done playing games.
"Three Sacred Treasures! EQUIPPED!" Pit declared, as he took to the air. Mario frowned and began to pursue, having to use his Flight Mario power up again. The pair traded blows, but Mario was outclassed for now. Every strike, Pit could evade and deliver one with twice as hard. Mario swiped at Pit's head, but the angel blasted him back to the ground with an arrow swarm. Pit then summoned a Mega Laser, which landed down on Mario, knocking the plumber all but out. Pit fired another swarm of Light Arrows, which Mario repelled with Cappy. He then grabbed a Mega Mushroom, growing to a giant size.
Pit used his Three Sacred Treasures to attack the new formed giant, smacking him in the face a few times, but ultimately being subdued with a swat. Pit flew back and began firing shots, but Mega Mario was launching punches and kicks at great speed. Pit gritted his teeth as Mario's assault began wearing down the Three Sacred Treasures. "Come on, Three Sacred Treasures!" Pit urged, but he then realised the Wings of Pegasus were faltering. As he plummeted, Mario delivered a Ground Pound to the treasures, destroying them instantly.
Pit landed with a thud, as the shadow of Mario's boot appeared over him. Pit activated his Dodge Token, and began swiftly evading Mario's attacks. He delivered slashes to Mega Mario's leg, who wasn't showing signs of slowing down. Mega Mario went for a kick, but Pit ran up the side of Mario's leg and slashed all up his knee and waist. Pit then planted X-Bombs in the overalls of Mario, before leaping away from the fiery explosions.
Mega Mario was subdued, momentarily, but Mario simply grabbed a second Mega Mushroom. "You've gotta be kidding me." Pit complained, as Mega Mario kicked him across the ground and into a hulking machine behind him. "Huh? Oh... YES!" Pit cried, leaping into the cockpit of the Great Sacred Treasure. "Now it's ON!" Pit yelled.
The mech crashed an arm into Mega Mario's punch, the concussion of the strike sending waves around the area, uprooting trees and rocks. They traded blow after blow after blow, and Pit piloted the craft back, and fired a blast of energy into Mario's face. Mario flinched, but lifted up a trunk of a tree, snapping it over the head of the Great Sacred Treasure. But the mech remained.
And now, Dyntos' creation was wailing on Mario. The bane of Hades was holding Mario by the neck with one hand and with the other one, was delivering punch after punch. Mega Mario delivered a Spin to push the Great Sacred Treasure back. Mario then delivered a Homing Ground Pound, sitting on the treasure and using all his weight to hold it down. Pit teleported the craft behind Mario. "You're FINISHED!" Pit yelled, as the mech drove a blade of light through Mario's waist. Mega Mario, now cut in two, landed in two separate halves, and Pit prepared for a killing blow, summoning a whirlwind beneath Mario's halves, and then delivering a flying tackle with the mech, splitting Mario's remains into bloodied chunks.
(Music Stops)
Pit then powered down the damaged treasure, and felt the fatigue wash over him. "Victory!" he yelled, creating the V symbol with his fingers.
KO!
Conclusion[]
Boomstick: Yikes! Think Dyntos did a good job with that new toy.
Wiz: Mario was probably the superior physical combatant; his lifting strength and other strength based attributes were incredible, but ironically his large arsenal of power ups fell short of Pit's.
Boomstick: About a half of Mario's attacks could be repelled with a Guardian Orbitar such as Star Bits, Fireballs and Snowballs, but even when Mario closed the distance, Pit wasn't overly outclassed. He has the Raptor Claws to compensate for his lack of strength and had many items that could throw off Mario's rhythms and patterns. The Super Armour would have helped him tank physical blows from Mario and even if he didn't use it, Pit has shown to be able to withstand high calibre impacts.
Wiz: He was swatted out of the sky by Hades, who was shown to destroy a diamond pillar in Scorched Feathers, and used a similar blow to knock Pit several feet out of the air. But even that came from an ambush rather than a face to face battle.
Boomstick: Mario also had no answer for Pit's Powers and Items like the Dodge Token, which allowed Pit to just evade anything Mario launched his way.
Wiz: With this in play, Mario was always susceptible to leaving himself vulnerable, and someone like Pit just isn't going to squander a chance like that. Mario was no push over, obviously, but Pit had more answers to him than Mario had to Pit.
Boomstick: You might think that Pit would lose out to Cappy when Mario tried to capture him in the battle, but that overlooks one thing.
Wiz: While Mario could use Cappy, Pit could take control of a being with the ring he was transformed into. This was seen on Magnus, a dog and a young child. There's no saying that Mario would need to be wearing the ring, as Pit controlled the dog simply by it holding the ring. Once in Mario's mind, Pit had the challenge of reclaiming his own body- without killing it- but we saw him do that as Magnus, who is merely a human wielding a club. There's no saying that he couldn't do the same as Mario.
Boomstick: And when it came to their trump cards, even though Mario could be invincible, he isn't like that forever. Pit has no time limit in the Sacred Treasures. Mega Mario might have been able to defeat the Three Sacred Treasures, but that's only because they were rusty and not as reliable as they once were. But Mario was never going to topple the Great Sacred Treasure.
Wiz: Pit didn't even need to be inside the vehicle either, because it can operate alone. And all he needed was to stall Mario until his power ups faded before delivering a deadly blow.
Boomstick: Poor Mario, I guess this really was the Pits...
Wiz: The winner is Pit!
Description[]
Mario vs. Kid Icarus. Two of Nintendo's most heroic heroes of light.
Introduction[]
Wiz: Throughout the years, Nintendo has been responsible for the creation of some of gaming's most heroic characters.
Boomstick: And today, we have two of them here.
Wiz: Mario, the whimsical plumber in service to Princess Peach.
Boomstick: And Pit, the angelic captain of Palutena's guard. He's Wiz and I'm Boomstick.
Wiz: And it's our job to analyze their weapons, armor and skills to find out who would win a Death Battle.
Mario[]
Wiz: The Mushroom Kingdom. Ruled over by the benevolent and kind Princess Peach, this kingdom finds itself under almost constant threat of conquerors, ranging from intergalactic fungus people to a being capable of creating powerful weapons of mass destruction.
Boomstick: And of course, we all know about the King of the Koopas, the Turtle of Terror himself, Bowser.
Wiz: In order to defend against such threats, the Mushroom Kingdom needed itself a protector. And it soon came to them in the form of, what else, a plumber. Well, two actually, but we're going to focus on the elder brother, Mario.
- Background
- Age: 24
- Height: 5'1
- Primary Occupation: Plumber
- Defender of the Mushroom Kingdom
- Older brother of Luigi
- Rival of Sonic the Hedgehog
Boomstick: That's pretty much the story of Luigi's life right there. Which makes me wonder, why a plumber as the Mushroom Kingdom's protector? They aren't exactly the marines.
Wiz: It's never exactly explained how Mario came to be in the Mushroom Kingdom, although maybe it has something to do with those warp pipes everywhere. Maybe he stumbled upon one and was sent to the Mushroom Kingdom as a result.
Popup: There exists an alternate version of Mario called Paper Mario, who will be largely ignored as they are both different characters and thus can't be viewed as composite.
Boomstick: Or maybe he leaped down purposely to hide from the authorities over animal cruelty charges due to locking that gorilla up.
Wiz: Well, it did kidnap a woman, so locking it up might have been Mario's best option honestly. But enough about that for now, let's back on topic.
Boomstick: Yeah, like how Mario was first pushed into action against Bowser when the nefarious spiked reptile turned the entire Mushroom Kingdom population into stone bricks and kidnapped Princess Peach.
Wiz: From that day forth, Mario has constantly leaped into defense of the Mushroom Kingdom time and time again, sometimes with help and sometimes by himself. And by himself he certainly can, because Mario is one powerful plumber.
Boomstick: He's strong enough to lift a giant golden Chain Chomp and tough enough to shrug off being burned, electrocuted, squashed and more. Guess being a plumber makes for a serious workout routine.
- Powers and Abilities
- Superhuman strength
- Superhuman durability
- Pyrokinesis
- Super Jump
- Ultra Jump
- Super Jump Punch
- Ultra Hammer
- Bottomless Gloves
Wiz: Throughout his career, as both a plumber, doctor and others, Mario has shown off a wide variety of different techniques, including the ability to produce fire. Although he formerly needed to collect a Power Flower in order to access this power, he has long since been able to produce fire himself. Or not, depending on which game you have.
Boomstick: He can toss balls of fire varying from the size of golf balls to the size of trucks, and even two massive spiraling ones which are essentially impossible to avoid from a 2D angle.
Wiz: Mario also has on his person the Ultra Hammer, perfect for dealing damage to even spiked or shielded enemies.
Boomstick: But above all, Mario's greatest ability is to jump!
Wiz: Well kinda.
Boomstick: "Kinda"? He was once literally known as Jumpman for Pete's Sake. It's how he pulls off his usual strategy of leaping on top of his opponent's heads to deal damage, and he can weaponize it with the Super Jump Punch or the Super and Ultra Jumps. I mean, just imagine what you could pull off with those kind of jumps! You could win any leaping competition in the Olympics. Oh wait a minute, Mario has!
Wiz: Well that's also a game where Wario can beat Sonic is a footrace so some restraint would be expected of Mario. But where restraint is lacking for the plumber is within his large arsenal of power ups. Thanks to his Bottomless Gloves, Mario can access any of them at any given time.
- Power-Ups
- Super Mushrooms
- Ice Flower
- Gold Flower
- Animal Transformations
- Frog Suit
- Super Bell
- Frog Suit
- Tanooki Suit
- Caps
- Vanish Cap
- Wing Cap
- Cappy
- Double Cherry
- Stopwatch
- Invincibility Items
- Rainbow Star
Boomstick: There are too many to count on one hand, or even two, so we'll stick with the basics. His Super Mushroom makes him grow twice as big and gives him an extra hit before going down, his ice flower can freeze enemies solid, his golden one turns them and bricks into gold, he can become a cat or mythical raccoon, turn himself invisible with the Vanish Cap, fly with the Winged one or even double himself with the Double Cherry.
Wiz: He can even stop time with the Stopwatch and make himself basically invincibility with a handful of different items, most notably with the Starman Star.
Boomstick: Aside from playing a catchy tune upon being caught, most invincibility items mean Mario cannot be harmed in any way. Anything that tries gets knocked off the face of the screen. My personal favorite is the Giant Mushroom, because I love imagining the faces of those Goombas when they see a giant plumber who's not coming to fix their pipes marching over the hill. In fact, I've even tried finding that kind of mushroom myself, but so far every one I've tried has been a dud.
Popup: Mario has often had allies such as FLUDD or Cappy to help him, but he only had them at very specific times.
Wiz: Do they instead make you see colors?
Boomstick: Yeah. How did you know?
Wiz: Because I have a brain.
Boomstick: Hey, so do I!
Wiz: Yeah, but mine's useful.
Boomstick: Grr...anyway, Mario has done some pretty impressive things, most of all battling against Bowser himself.
- Feats
- Knowledgeable in many career options
- Kicked a giant castle away
- Maneuvered as a bolt of electricity
- Takes hits from Bowser and Donkey Kong
- Traveled through time, space and other dimensions
- Defeated Kamek, Bowser, Donkey Kong, Wario, Smithy
Wiz: Who's strong enough to lift a giant castle and survive falling into the fires of a sun.
Boomstick: Mario's even strong enough to kick away a giant castle himself, which was already calculated on Mario VS Sonic 2018 to have been worth about 4 megatons of TNT.
Wiz: Mario also scales to his rival Wario, who survived being in close vicinity to the Shake King exploding, but more reliably has taken hits from the grandson of his former foe, Donkey Kong, who once knocked the moon out of its orbit.
Boomstick: In other words, Mario's really powerful.
Wiz: And clearly smarter than he looks. I mean he's a certified doctor, which would require extensive knowledge on all medical subjects.
Boomstick: More impressively, as a doctor he can replace his fireballs with medicine pills. Guess that's why most pill bottles have a warning label of them; those things could kill you, especially in the hands of Mario. But even if he is as intelligent as you say Wiz, it hasn't stopped him from being rather foolhardy. Not that'd I'd reliable recognize the signs of such as I've never been foolish.
Wiz: Mario has been tricked rather often in the past before and does not possess a consistent win streak, having been bested by the likes of King Boo, Kamek and Bowser himself on occasion. Also, his power ups deactivate when he gets hit by an enemy, or simply wear off after a while, like with his invincibility items.
Popup: It's unclear if it's the direct function of the Power-Ups to vanish upon being hit or if it occurs due to enemies being strong enough to harm Mario. Considering the nature of the invincibility items, it's likely the former hypothesis.
Boomstick: However, those shortcomings having stopped him from saving the Mushroom Kingdom time and time again, even he doesn't always get a cake from Peach. Looking at you Odyssey.
Wiz: Nintendo truly has itself one famous mascot.
Pit[]
Wiz: A long time ago, the heaven-like realm of Skyworld was ruled over by two goddess; the Goddess of Light Palutena and the Goddess of Darkness Medusa.
Boomstick: The latter of whom decided, on a whim, to start terrorizing the humans. Whilting their crops, conjuring thunderstorm and most significant of all, turning them to stone. But hey, what where they expecting? She's called the Goddess of Darkness. I'm pretty sure causing misery and chaos is in her nature.
Wiz: Exactly. Just like how it was in Palutena's nature to step in and protect the humans, punishing Medusa's wrath by transforming her into a hideous one-eyed monster.
Boomstick: And that in turn led her to amass an army from the Underworld and attack Skyworld. Guess it was good and all of Palutena to defend us humans but sometimes such actions can set into motion the cycle of revenge.
Wiz: With Skyworld conquered by the forces of the Underworld, Palutena reached out for help and it came in the form of the captain of her guard, the angel Pit.
- Background
- Age: 25>
- Height: 5'3
- Captain of Palutena's Guard
- Rival of Dark Pit
- Ironically, cannot fly himself
- Current design came from Super Smash Bros
Boomstick: Who's definitely qualified to led the angelic armies of Skyworld. Except for one minor detail; he's an angel who can't freaking fly!
Wiz: Go easy on him Boomstick.
Boomstick: I mean it's just ridiculous! He's an angel, right? So why can't he fly like one? They never even explain it! How exactly was he qualified to lead other angels, I'd think they'd all be laughing at him from up in the clouds.
Wiz: Well even if the various Centurions didn't have the upmost respect for their captain, they'd hardly have any right to mock him, considering that he absolutely outranks them all in combat abilities. In spite of his youthful appearance, Pit is in fact well over 25 years old, and that's given him plenty of time to acquire a wide mastery of many different weapons.
Boomstick: Like the mythological figures he's based on, Pit's most trusted and reoccurring weapon is his bow. Not only is it capable of firing off shots of energy, it can also split in two to become duel blades, monopolizing the idea of combination weapons long before RWBY did.
- Arsenal
- Bows
- Blades
- Claws
- Staffs
- Arms
- Cannons
- Orbitars
- Clubs
- Palms
- Great Sacred Treasures
- Arrow of Light
- Mirror Shield
- Pegasus Wings
Wiz: Pit also has access to another primary weapon type, the Blades, which are perfect for both slashing and shooting opponents. But there are also more unorthodox ones such as Orbitars, levitating turrets that follow Pit wherever he goes and can help defend against projectiles.
Boomstick: If he wants to slice apart his enemies or cosplay as Wolverine, he uses claws, with one type even being based off heavy ammunition.
Wiz: When he wants to focus on really long ranged attacks, he uses Staffs.
Popup: Technically, it's a club that possesses the longest range of any weapon; the Earthmaul Club. The Laser Staff is a close second.
Boomstick: And when he wants to go for some serious firepower, he uses the clubs for powerful strikes or cannons for massive explosions. Then there are also Arms and Palms, which are both just literally hand-cannons. Each one of these weapons have long-range and short-ranged capabilities, with each being capable of firing charged shots and shots whilst dashing.
Wiz: With the vast number of different weapon sub-sets there, Pit certainly has a wide array of means to take on the forces of the Underworld, and this is taken further with the various magical spells he has.
- Spells
- Power of Flight
- Health Recovery
- Freeze/Burn Attack
- Explosive Flame
- Mega Laser
- Aries Armor
- Reflect Barrier
- Invisible Shots
- Explosive Flame
- Eggplant Attack
Boomstick: He can make big lasers, big explosions, heal himself, inflict or reverse status effects and even heal himself.
Popup: Whilst flying, Pit's spells are replaced by a 'super-attack' for whichever weapon type is equipped.
Wiz: The Aries Armor in particular is a really useful spell, as it reduces all damage, nullifies status effects and prevents Pit from being sent flying from powerful attacks.
Boomstick: But whilst that may be Wiz's favorite spell, Pit's favorite is the Power of Flight, which finally gets around the issue of Pit's lack of natural flight. For 5 whole minutes, Pit can fly at breakneck speeds whether he wants to.
Wiz: What are your favorite spells? You already know mine.
Boomstick: Oh, I've already mentioned them; the Mega Laser and Mega Explosion.
Wiz: Anything that reduces things to pieces huh? Anyway, Pit's already pretty formidable with his standard arsenal, but when it comes to facing down top gods like Medusa, he pulls out the Three Legendary Treasures.
Boomstick: The Arrow of Light that can destroy even the most indestructible of enemies, the Pegasus Wings that allow unlimited flight and the Mirror Shield which blocks any projectile, the Three Sacred Treasures certainly are Pit's greatest armaments. They even come with some misnamed armor for free!
Wiz: The Three Sacred Treasures, and later their superior successor the Great Sacred Treasure, proved as instrumental as Pit was in the quest to defeat Medusa and later the true master of the Underworld Hades.
- Feats
- Remained sentient as a ring and eggplant
- Dodged a laser beam from a space station
- Took hits from Hades
- Obliterated a boulder
- Fought through four different armies
- Defeated Mesuda, Dark Pit, Phosphora, Chaos Kin, Hades
Boomstick: As shown on Sora VS Pit, Hades is strong enough to chop through a giant crystal pillar.
Wiz: And from that same episode, it was also found that Pit reacted to a laser a 90 million MPH. That puts Pit's reaction speed in the six figure Mach range.
Popup: Pit is also skilled at piloting several different he comes across, such as a mech-suit and weaponized motorcycle.
Boomstick: And it shows too, because he can practically blitz through entire armies highhandedly, like the Underworld, Forces of Nature and the Aurum alien invaders, defeating some of their most elite warriors.
Wiz: Army destroyer he may be, but Pit can also be rather dimwitted and it has been stated that he is a better fighter in the air than he is on the ground.
Boomstick: Speaking of which, Pit can't use the Power of Flight after the five minutes, otherwise his angel wings will become hot wings.
Wiz: Inability to fly hasn't stopped Pit in any capacity however, because practically all the world owes its continued existence to the captain of Palutena's guard. Pit has more than proved himself a worthy Nintendo hero.
Interlude[]
Wiz: Alright, the combatants are set, time to end this debate once and for all.
Boomstick: It's time for a Death Battle!
The Battle[]
With his bow in hand, Pit walked down the streets of a Greece-styled city, his signature bow in hand, and his stomach grumbling. As he sighed in annoyance, he noticed something on the ground; a green mushroom. He titled his head as he pondered the consequences of straight up eating it; for about a second.
Pit: Eh, I always eat burgers off the floor, as mushroom certainly can't hurt.
But just as he reached for it, Mario leapt down from a roof and onto it, causing it to vanish with a musical jingle.
Mario: Yum!
He turned to leave, only for Pit to yell out at him.
Pit: Hey, I found it first!
Mario: Well mushrooms are-a-mine, angel-boy!
Pit: Oh yeah...
He leveled his bow at Mario, who turned around fully in surprise.
Pit: And so this!
FIGHT!
Pit fired the energy arrow at Mario, who ducked down to avoid it, his hat remaining in mid-air comically before it was put back on his head by the plumber standing straight up in time for Pit to charge forward, disconnect his bow into its duel blades and slash at Mario, who strafed backwards from both slashes. Mario then also dodged the double X-slash from Pit by leaping into the air with a whoop and slamming both his feet down onto Pit's head in the process.
Pit: Ow!
Mario landed behind the angel and dealt an uppercut punch to his back, sending the angel flying upwards before crashing back down to Earth. Not letting up, Mario fired off a barrage of fireballs from his hands, which Pit countered by combining his bow's blades back together and spinning the newly reformed bow in front of him with the speed of a fan, blocking the fiery barrage. Once it had subsided, Pit fired a stream of energy arrows at Mario, who ran a circle around Pit to avoid being hit, eventually coming near a wall; leaping into the air, he planted his feet on the wall and pushed off it, lunging towards Pit. Just before Mario could grab a hold of him, Pit dashed forward so that Mario ended up splayed on the ground behind him. Pit drew back his bow, a charged shot ready.
Pit: Gotcha!
Mario: Ooh boy!
The charged shot hit Mario directly in the back, sending him flying forward to strike a wall. After remaining plastered on it for a moment, he toppled backwards onto the ground and onto his back. Pit approached him, his bow draw and ready to fire, but Mario snuck something out from between his fingers; a Super Leaf. Mario's power-up caused a flash that made Pit shield his eyes, and when he opened them again, he saw Mario now wearing a Tanooki Suit, leaping through the air towards him. Before Pit could fire his shot, Mario performed a rapid series of spins to weaponize his tail; the first hit Pit in the cheek and the other in his side, but it was the one that hit the side of his legs that had the most effect, sweeping Pit off them and leaving him wide open for Mario to jump up and deliver a double-kick to his chest, sending the angel flying backwards. Pit hit the ground rolling, adapting to get back to his feet quickly as Mario came at him again with another spin. However, the tail didn't strike Pit, but instead the edge of his First Blade. As Mario looked around in surprise, Pit pushed the blade against the tail, pushing Mario back around and allowing the angel to slash at the plumber. Mario dodged back from the slash and then ducked under Pit's second slash. The former then performed a tailspin which Pit leaped over to avoid, allowing him to slash downwards, the blade connecting with the top of Mario's head and deactivated his Tanooki suit. Before Mario could react to the loss of his power-up, Pit slashed him several more times, forcing Mario to draw backwards with his arms crossed in front of his face as a defense.
Pit: What's the matter? Too much to handle!
However, as he swung his Blade down another time, a cat's paw shot out and seized a hold of his sword-hand, letting him see that Mario equipped his cat suit to himself. With a grunt, Mario wrenched the blade from Pit's hand, causing the angel to take two steps backwards in surprise. Mario flipped the blade around and hurled it point first at Pit, who dodged to the side to let it pierce against a wall, before he equipped his claws. With a war-yell, Pit dashed forward and slashed at Mario, who slashed right back his cat claws. The two slashes struck each other directly, throwing up sparks, before the plumber and angel both unleashed a barrage of slashes, all of which collided in together. After a while of this, Mario leaped into the air to avoid another of Pit's slashes before pouncing down towards Pit, slamming both his paws into the angel's stomach and knocking him onto his back. Pit flipped Mario off of him using both his feet, making the literally catty plumber land behind the angel. Pit jumped back to his feet and turned around, firing a shot from his claws at Mario, who dragged himself across the ground to avoid getting shot. As he did, he came with range of a pillar, which he leaped onto and ran up using his cat-suit abilities, keeping ahead of the stream of shots from Pit's claws. In a matter of seconds, Mario had reached the top of the pillar and vanished on the top.
Pit: Hey, get down here!
A red colored poof of smoke rose from the top of the pillar, and then to Pit's shock, multiple Cat Mario leapt down from the pillar and towards Pit in a legion of pounces. Pit got over his shock in time to slash at the first two Cat Mario that first come within range, reducing them to puffs of red smoke before he leaped back to avoid the others pouncing on him. The Cat Mario quickly surrounded Pit before charging at him; the Angel switched out his claws for his Orbitars, sending out a construct of a shield that several of the Cat Mario planted against as they ran forward at the same time as several copies came at him from behind. Utilizing the Orbitars as attack drones, Pit had them dart forward to strike several of the Cat Mario and destroy them. He did this just as the clones at the front where able to scale the forward-motioned shield construct, prompting Pit to whip around and fire shots from the Orbitars to destroy them. This left only the Cat Mario on the sides charging towards Pit, who countered their attack by drawing out a massive Club and swinging it about himself, catching all the copies of the flat of the weapon and sending them flying into the distance.
Pit: Right! Now where you, you mustached...
The revving of an engine drew his attention and he turned in surprise to see Mario driving towards him in his cart. Before the angel could react, Mario rammed straight into him, planting him on the hood of the vehicle as it broke through a wall and headed out of the city's borders. Mario let out a whoop of success, but it died quickly as Pit dragged himself up the hood, a Palm equipped to fire an outline of a hand-print straight at him. Mario dodged his head to the side to avoid the attack and the one that followed, before drawing out an ice flower and activating the corresponding power-up, lopping a ball of ice at Pit. It struck the angel dead on, freezing him in place against the cart's hood with a wide-eyed expression of shock. All the while, Mario drove the cart straight towards the edge of a cliff.
Mario: Bye-Bye!
As the cart came closer to the point of no return, Mario leapt out of the vehicle, letting it drive off the edge of the cliff with Pit still frozen to the hood.
The plumber looked at the edge of the cliff in satisfaction and began trudging away. However, if he had looked down, he could have seen Pit activate a spell of his that removed the ice effect around him, before calling upon a much more notable ability. The resulting burst of light shone up over the cliff's edge and drew Mario's attention. Stopping he turned around and saw Pit soar up over the cliff, the Power of Flight having been activated, and a cannon in his hand.
Mario: Oh boy.
Pit fired a shot from the cannon, which exploded behind Mario as he took off running from the angel. More explosions erupted from behind the plumber courtesy of Pit and his cannon. Eventually, Pit was able to land a shot right in front of Mario cutting off his escape route before bombarding the area around the plumber with a series of explosions, blocking any sight of him with the fire and smoke. Pit peered into the devastation in search for his target, before noticing the sound of wings flapping, confusing him before he witnessed Mario shoot out of the smoke cloud and into the sky thanks to the Winged Cap. It took a moment for Pit to realize he was heading straight towards him, and by then Mario had punched him directly across the face, sending him spinning through the sky. Pit hurriedly re-ordered himself and drew out his staff, firing at Mario at the plumber closed the distance between them. Mario dodged the long-ranged blasts and closed the distance, grabbing a hold of the staff's shaft and pulling on it so that Pit was drawn close enough so he could deliver a headbutt to the angel. As Pit reeled back from the attack, Mario grabbed him by the ankle, pulled him forward and slammed a newly formed fireball directly into Pit's face, the miniature explosion propelling Pit back down to crash onto the ground, throwing up a cloud of dust. After performing a quick loop in the air, Mario soared downwards to air-dive into Pit.
Only to slam face-first straight into the front of the Mirror Shield as the dust cloud dispersed to reveal Pit had equipped the Three Sacred Treasures. With a glint in his eye, Pit pushed his shield forward, knocking Mario backwards and ridding him off his Winged Cap and leaving him wide open for Pit to fire the Arrow of Light straight into his chest, blasting him backwards and leaving a smoking patch on Mario's chest. Mario tumbled backwards seemingly beaten.
But then his eyes snapped open, he planted his feet on the ground to stop himself falling backwards and he flicked his hand, bringing between his fingers a Rainbow Star.
Mario: Let's a-go!
With the power-up in hand, Mario entered a rainbow colored state of invincibility.
Pit: Gah, that music is so annoying!
He got over his annoyance to duck under Mario's punch before strafing backwards from Mario's continued barrage. He fired a stream of shots at Mario as he did, only for the invincibility state of the plumber rendering these useless. Mario then lunged at Pit, forcing him to activate the Pegasus Wings to soar into the air to avoid it. Now airborne, the Angel readied an especially powerful shot in his bow.
Pit: This ends now!
He fired a powerful Arrow of Light down towards Mario, who pulled out one last item to use; the Mega Mushroom. As the plumber grew to the huge size, he held his palm in front of him to block the Arrow of Light; aside from lightly singing his palm, the powerful did nothing to him in his current state. Pit blinked in shock and his mouth hung open in dismay, before Mario drew his hands back before slapping them together, trapping Pit between the powerful clap. Mario kept his hands together before parting them, revealing the stunned Pit in the now ruined Three Sacred Treasures; he remained suspended in mid-air before he crashed back down to Earth.
Pit groaned in pain as he pushed himself up with his palms. Just as he did, the normal sized Mario fell through the air and landed directly on top of Pit's head, driving it against the ground and smashing it to bloodied pieces.
Mario: Oh yeah! I'm number-
He trailed off from his victory quote when he realized he had just gotten his boots covered in blood and he grimaced in annoyance.
Mario: Oh Mama Mia...
KO!
Outcome[]
Boomstick: I told you jumping was Mario's greatest ability!
Wiz: As our analysis showed us, this was actually rather far from an uneven match-up. Pit was certainly faster than Mario via dodging that laser beam and he vast array of spells and weapons certainly kept the Plumber on his toes. In particular, the spells used to remove status effects would prove useful for countering much of Mario's fire and ice abilities.
Popup: Given that it can harm the otherwise invincible Ornes, it's possible that the Arrow of Light would have been capable of harming Mario during his states of invulnerability. However, they would not be powerful enough to kill him so easily.
Boomstick: But Mario also possessed a wide range of abilities, including his numerous invincibility forms and anyway, his superiority in strength and durability are what really decided the outcome of this battle.
Wiz: As we already know from Mario VS Sonic 2018, Mario could strike with a force of 3 megatons of TNT and survive just a slightly lower kind of attack. Scaling to Wario, his durability could in fact be even higher.
Boomstick: And from Sora VS Pit, he know that Pit can only deliver a power worth less than a ton of TNT and take hits of just 30 tons of TNT from Hades.
Wiz: Speaking of Hades, even if we had given Pit the Great Sacred Treasure, it was only able to evidently match Hades' strength, not surpass it by any great margin.
Boomstick: So whilst Pit may have been faster and could have likely gotten in a load of hits on Mario, Mario could have taken all of these hits and would have likely only had to have dealt just one back in comparison considering his strength.
Popup: Pit possessed a one-hit kill enhancement spell that could have given him the win, especially with his superior speed. However, this would have required a specific ability set, often decided by player influence, so inclusion of it would have been considered too much of a specific scenario.
Wiz: Pit was a powerful angel and loyal follower of Palutena, but Mario's strength, durability and arsenal showed him as the stronger, but not better mind, Nintendo hero.
Boomstick: Leaving Palutena to bring her captain out of the Pit of despair he had fallen into.
Wiz: The winner is Mario.

Trivia[]
- The connection between Mario and Pit is that they are both Nintendo protagonists who battle against evil forces at the behalf of matriarchal rulers. Both also have brown hair, rivals whom they either fight or team up with and a vast arsenal, due to Mario's power-ups and Pit's weapons.
- This battle would have been in 3D
- The original music for this battle would have been called 'Super Sacred Heroes', referring to Mario's title series, Pit's Legendary Treasures and how both are heroic figures
