Poll: Bounty Hunter Showdown: Sylux vs. Weavel
Posted: Fri Jun 11, 2010 12:16 pmSo, for once I'm going to do a battle that doesn't involve parallel versions of the same character, isn't that great? Anyways, this battle involves two of the bounty hunters from Metroid Prime Hunters. Sylux, the hunter skilled in espionage and tracking, and armed with stolen and illegal Federation equipment faces off against the cyborg Space Pirate General, Weavel.
Sylux is armed with the Shock Coil, which fires a continuous blast of concentrated neutrinos in an electrical stream that drains an enemy's energy and re-fills Sylux's own energy. Sylux's alternate mode is the Lock Jaw, a glowing green sphere of energy surrounded by two deformed looking metal bars, in this state, Sylux can not only travel at fast speeds, but also drop either two bombs to make a trip-wire trap or three to form a triangle around an enemy to cause considerably vast damage. Sylux also has direct missiles and a Power Beam on back up.
Weavel is armed with the Battle Hammer, which fires concentrated, almost solid, green plasma projectiles at a fast rate in a lobbing arc, the weapon is powered with it's own miniature nuclear reactor. His alternate form is the Half Turret, in which Weavel's robotic body splits in two. The top half (his upper torso and head) is able to walk on his two hands which have transformed into small feet, and he has an energy scythe to give him support in this state. The lower half (waist and legs) is stationary, but is armed with Weavel's Battle Hammer, and automatically targets foes and fires upon them. In his normal state, Weavel also has direct missiles and a Power Beam on back up, as well as the aforementioned energy scythe for close quarters situations.
Alright, who wins this battle? I could definitely see it lasting a while considering the top notch skill and tech of both combatants. Cast your vote and place your comment!

to be honest both are quiet formidable opponents. My problem is i cant decide i would assume the winner would be who had more experience and used the environment/resources to their advantage to gain the upper the hand. all in all they both got what it takes but im throwing my vote to weavel but Sylux does have an advantage with his unique bombs.
