Intro[]

Skel: I love it when we get deformed people on this, they pretty much always look awesome!

Skunk: Well just because they look scary and evil, doesn't mean they actually are, well, sometimes they are...

Skel: Painwheel, Monstrous Experiment from Skullgirls.

Skunk: And Baraka, Meat Eating Tarkatan from Mortal Kombat.

Skel: He's Skunk and I'm Skel!

Skunk: And it's our job to research their weapons, armour and skills to find out who would win, a Death Battle!

Painwheel Is Out Of Control In Death Battle![]

Skunk: Beauty is a thing of importance to some, it helps them cope with their life, and make it easier.

Skel: But sometimes it also won't work out when someone preforms surgery on you and makes you look butt ugly.

Skunk: Well, uh, true I guess. Meet Carol, better known as Painwheel. Once she was a normal girl, having a nice life, nothing wrong.

Skel: But we are in Death Battle, so her life wasn't going to always be normal.

Skunk: She was kidnapped by to a secret lab, and experimented on. She got implants, causing deformities and pain to her constantly, thus her name.

Skel: These implants were connected to her spine, and are able to be controlled by her with her mind, and giving her plenty of ways to harm others around her.

Skel: She can use a wide variate of moves to shred, tear and cut her foes up in bits, including Death Crawl, which allows her to go full speed with her spinning wheel of death on her back while upside down and cut up her enemies!

Skunk: Not only that, she is also able to use Buer Overdrive to go at speeds up to 200mph and faster than that too.

Skel: Seriously, she has moves that she uses that should also harm her too, but they don't because of her insane regeneration ability.

Painwheel's Feats[]

  • Able to break her own leg with ease and suffer no harm
  • Able to match Valentine, who can create after images and dodge point blank gun fire
  • Can face 3 members of her unit back to back and showed no sign of exhaustion
  • Took a beating from Fillia, Big Band and Beowulf, and got up right after
  • Overcame Brain Drain's Mind Control
  • Can destroy the Skull Heart
  • Described as being one of the most powerful characters in Skullgirls
  • Stated to be able to easily beat Big Band if she wasn't restricted
  • Her Hatred Install makes her even more powerful

Skel: You are telling me? She can beat the likes of Big Band while unrestricted, destroy the Skull Heart, and even keep up with super ninja nurses like Valentine, who can make after images and teleport!

Skunk: She has been said to be one of the most powerful girls in the roster, which is something to be said with characters who can cause mass destruction all on their own.

Skel: She took a massive beating and just got up from it, she got beaten by 3 super powerful characters and just got up!

Skunk: She is strong, fast, and very deadly, but her flaws can really show when in combat.

Painwheel's Flaws[]

  • Has constant migraines
  • Constantly fighting for control over her body
  • Not strategic
  • Only 15 years old
  • Despite her power, she has been beaten more times than she has won fights

Skel: Well, she is only 15 years old, and after that procedure, she wasn't in the best mental state, I mean, how would anyone else react if they saw they were practically a monster?

Skunk: And being 15, she hasn't really got a strategic mind-set, she more goes in blades swinging, often not considering the risks

Skel: She also hasn't won as often as you would think, winning 2 out of 7 fights, but she still did survive through them, so there is that.

Skunk: But still, after all we said, you for sure do not want to cross the path of Painwheel, she will inflict the pain she has felt ever since she was made to the monster everyone sees her as.

Painwheel is shown preforming her Hatred Install and then instantly knocking out Big Band.

Baraka Craves For Meat In Death Battle![]

Skunk: Mortal Kombat, a tournament that decides the fate of all realms, and of those in it.

Skel: The whole idea is you can't just take over the other realms, you gotta earn the right to do it, so what better way to do so than fight?

Skunk: Shao Kahn conquered realms with ease, one after the other, crushing them and combining them with Outworld.

Skel: One of those realms was Tarkata, where the, uh, Tarkatans lived.

Skunk: How creative, did they name the realm after themselves, or themselves after the realm?

Skel: Who knows what they were thinking when naming either, in any case, the Tarkatans were nothing without their leader, Baraka.

Baraka is shown doing his Chop Chop move on Johnny.

Baraka's Arsenal & Move-Set[]

Arsenal[]

  • Arm Blades
    • Can be hit against each other to emit sparks that fly at foes
  • War Banner
    • Can be used to attack foes, and increase Baraka's own offensive capabilities

Move-Set[]

  • Chop Chop
    • Savagely swings his blades forward while kneeling down, slashing anyone nearby
  • Flying Shard
    • Send a spark forward
      • Can be enhanced to send more
  • Blade Spin
  • Blade Charge
  • Spine Burst
  • Scrape Kick
  • Nail & Impale
    • X-Ray Attack from MK9
  • Skewered
    • Fatal Blow fro MK11
  • Many, many more attacks

Skunk: Baraka is a savage, possessing arm blades that can come out of his upper wrists, able to send sparks flying, rapidly swipe them, and gut opponents.

Skel: He can impale them on people to life them up, fracture bones with his wrist blades, and charge blades first at his opponents, like a boss.

Skunk: He isn't just about his blades, he carries a war banner on himself that he can put down to make himself stronger, and even use it to hit others with.

Skel: He can just summon the thing from nowhere, it just appears!

Skunk: Baraka is nothing more than a natural fighter, leader, and expert brawler, which is probably why Kahn picked him as one of his many minions to carry out his deeds.

Skel: His moves and blades make it clear he is not one to be messed with, especially when he doesn't hold back.

Baraka's Feats[]

  • Can match people like Kung Lao, Mileena and Sub-Zero
  • Was able to smell Shang Tsung out while the sorcerer was disguised
  • Able to tear flesh off of bodies with a bite
  • Can break bones casually
  • Able to take beatings from other skilled opponents

Skunk: He can shatter bones with a kick, smell out Shang Tsung while he was disguised, and-

Skel: Eat the flesh off a person's leg like he is eating a damn chicken bone!

Skunk: Right, Baraka is powerful, deadly, and by no means a push-over, keeping up with the best of the best, even being able to match Mileena, a being made from his own blood mixed with Kitana's.

Skel: He is even able to take hits from Raiden, the thunder god, you know how strong gods are, right?

Skunk: With all the skill and power Baraka holds, he is certainly worthy of being the leader of his race, but in the end, he is still a mortal being, and like any other, has his flaws.

Baraka's Flaws[]

  • Has been beaten many times by others less trained than himself
    • Beaten by Johnny Cage
  • Most attacks are close ranged
  • Was killed by D'Vorah easily
  • Was unable to beat Cyrax, despite Sheeva helping

Skel: His win-loss record isn't as scary as he looks, he is strong, but even the strongest can meet their match.

Skunk: And if by "their match" you mean a washed up actor who has no former training in martial arts, then yeah, he's been beaten by his match.

Skel: Those blades are sharp, but even they have limited options for range, so Baraka relies on being up close often.

Skunk: When you look at him though, you don't want to be anywhere near those blades, that is for sure as a fact, as he will slice you up with them, and eat your brain.

Baraka is shown doing his fatality on Rain.

Intermission[]

Skunk: Alright, the combatants are set, let's end this debate once and for all.

Skel: It's time for a Death Battle!!!

Fight[]

Location: City Streets

Several tarkatans are shown savagely slicing up people, impaling them, and throwing them around, as military try to fight them. Baraka leads them in, and cuts up the military soldiers, arms, legs and heads. A cut to black happens, then the view fades in to show Baraka stood atop a pile of dead bodies. Suddenly, several monsterous screams are heard. Baraka turns to see Painwheel, slicing up all the other tarkatan warriors. After she finishes, she looks up at Baraka.

Baraka: You are going to suffer for what you've done, you cannot stop Shao Kahn's invasion!

Baraka makes his wrist blades come out, and slides them together. Painwheel's blade spins, and she stares down Baraka.

Fight!

Baraka lunges, swinging his blades down, which Painwheel avoids by dashing back, causing Baraka's blades to stick in the ground. Baraka gets scratched in the face, then punched several times, before being headbutted, causing him to fly back, with his blades now having a chunk of the street on them. Painwheel flies up, as Baraka gets up, still struggling to lift the road his blades are stuck in. Painwheel rushes down to attack, but Baraka suddenly swings the concrete up, smashing Painwheel's jaw with it. An X-Ray shows Painwheel's jaw shattering, and then the concrete shatters too, sending Painwheel high in the air. She falls down, and Baraka points his war banner up, causing Painwheel to get impaled on it.

Baraka: You are no warrior!

Baraka spins the banner, with Painwheel on it, and she eventually slides off, hitting a car on the side of the street. Baraka puts the banner down, and slides his blades together 3 times, sending 3 sparks at Painwheel. She sees the attack coming, and uses her blade to block them. She picks up the car, and hurls it towards Baraka. Baraka lunges, and with a clean swipe, cuts the whole car in half with his blades. Both combatants run forward, Baraka with his blades out, and Painwheel on her hands and feet like a wild animal, they jump forward. Painwheel swings her fist, and punches Baraka's chest, sending him into the ground. Painwheel lands on Baraka, and starts to whale her fists on Baraka, an X-Ray showing each hit causing a rib to break in his chest.

Baraka: Get off me!

Baraka extends his blades, causing them to impale Painwheel's throat. She stops and screams out, as Baraka gets up, holding her up by one arm.

Baraka: You are going to make a great snack.

Suddenly, Painwheel kicks Baraka's face, then snaps his blade off. He stumbles back, and Painwheel pulls the blade out, and the wound heals. Baraka yells out, and spins around rapidly towards Painwheel. She gets back, trying to find an opening, but Baraka keeps spinning. She flies high up, and eventually Baraka stops, unable to see Painwheel. He glares around in confusion. A sudden impact slams down into the street, and Baraka looks to see a massive hole in the street now. He looks down it, only to suddenly get grabbed by Painwheel, who was under the ground. She pulls Baraka down, into a tunnel system. They both free fall down, Painwheel's blade not working. Both clash their feet and fists, with loud impacts. Baraka impales a blade into Painwheel's eye, making her scream out. Baraka then twists the blade while it is still in Painwheel, and then snaps it off. He headbutts Painwheel, further driving the blade into her head, and causing it to stick out the back of her head.

Baraka: I am the superior warrior, you are nothing!

Painwheel's blade suddenly turns on, and she slices Baraka's chest, causing him to be pushed away. Baraka falls down, and through a portal. The portal causes Baraka to land in Goro's Lair. He gets up, as Painwheel arrives through the portal, and it closes, Painwheel having taken the blade out her eye. Both combatants stare each other down again. Baraka takes his banner out, and charges. Painwheel charges with her blade spinning in front of her. Baraka slides under the blades, tripping Painwheel over. Once she is on the ground, Baraka turns her over onto her back. Baraka impales his banner in her gut, pining Painwheel to the ground.

Baraka: I have proven the superior, you are simply worthless. Painwheel gets a flash of red in her eyes, and her blade starts to turn. Baraka brings his arm up, and extends his blade. Baraka swings down, but Painwheel suddenly slices Baraka's arm blade off with her own blade. Baraka suddenly gets sliced in the throat by her blade, making him stumble backwards, holding his throat. Painwheel snaps the war banner, and gets up, healing instantly. Her blade immediatly spins up rapidly, and she activates her Hatred Install, yelling out with rage. Baraka tries to swing his arms, but Painwheel catches his wrists, and twists them, an X-Ray showing both wrist bones shatter to multiple pieces. Painwheel lets go, and Baraka slowly walks back, his arms totally limp and broken. Painwheel pounds on Baraka, punching his chest and face, causing teeth to fly out and Baraka to vomit blood.

Painwheel Vs Baraka Killing Blow

Fatality! Painwheel Wins.

Painwheel then revs up her blade, and slices Baraka's body down the middle. Baraka's body falls down, and falls apart in two. Painwheel flies out of the scene, as a beast comes over and eats the remains of Baraka.

K.O!

Conclusion[]

Skel: Who'd have thought Baraka could be in a fight this awesome?

Skunk: In this battle, both combatants had different edges, but when the facts came out, Painwheel cut nearly all of Baraka's feats down.

Skel: Speed was pretty close, If we scale Baraka to Kabal, he can go at mach 3, an impressive speed, while Painwheel can match Valentine, who could create after-images and dodge gunfire at point blank range, so they both were able to keep up with each other reasonably.

Skunk: Though while equal in speed, they were not equal in the damage they could take. Baraka may be a tough warrior, but even he has limits, unlike Painwheel who possesses a healing factor to undo damage.

Skel: So Baraka really had little hope of killing Painwheel, and while he is strong, Painwheel has gone against much more powerful foes, and is stated if she was at full power, that she'd be able to beat Big Band, and he is leagues above someone like Baraka.

Skunk: And while he was a warrior with years of training, none of his attacks would cause long lasting harm to Painwheel, making this battle fairly simple.

Skel: No matter what way you slice it, Painwheel diced it, and Baraka just didn't make the cut.

Skunk: The winner is Painwheel!
