      The fact that they cut out so many of the weapons and abilities of both fighters makes me believe that this should have been a season finale episode instead. The budget for those is better and would have allowed a wider arsenal and longer fight. But let’s be honest: from the sounds of it, it wouldn’t have mattered much outcomewise

    Basically this fight boils down to the fact that despite the Dragonborn not actually having a way to counter the curse, the Dragonborn is so much more powerful than the Chosen Undead that they would go hollow from all their failures before they end up waring down the Dragonborn in a war of attrition. While the fight was great I feel like it would have benefitted from two things, having the Chosen Undead die a few more times, getting more and more despondent to show the hollowing taking effect and a more clear ending as it's not super clear even on rewatch.

      There'd also be "Hyper Mode", dealing with multiple summons, and other things that the chosen undead could do to drag the fight out. Regardless of whether the Dragonborn was using their full strength, the chosen undead still can keep going and going... which only makes it worse if they now devote their entire being to just trying to kill you as that could potentially slow the hollowing effect. The dragonborn may have had the power advantage, but the chosen undead would still make the fight last for an eternity if they didn't nerf both of them.

    Interesting part is, they staged this fight to be where a cut fight from the actual Dark Souls game would be.
    Oscar, the knight who frees the player from the cell they are locked in at the start, in the final game dies before escaping the prison and goes hollow the next time you return there.
    But he's got a fairly large number of unused dialogue files in the game's data for the player encountering him at a fairly large number of points in the game, from simple paths crossing to times he suggests working together to clear a tough area. But several of the cut dialogues refer to the end of the game, namely that if the player linked the flame, Oscar would declare the gods to be liars, and the player a useless slave to their will, keeping mankind oppressed and in their servitude. Meanwhile if the player intended to let it burn out, Oscar would condemn the player for letting mankind fall into eternal dark. Basically, he was on the opposite side of you, no matter what, and was the last fight of the game before the credits rolled.
    For whatever reason, they decided to cut the bulk of Oscar's content from the final game, likely because the finale drew a bit too clear a line on the argument of "good vs. evil" when Dark Souls is meant to be about the struggle against the inevitable.
    So in this case, Death Battle staged their fight where the fight with Oscar would be, but it's the Dragonborn that showed up instead.

    While I understand why the Chosen Undead lost, in a way I can see it as a bit of a victory since a permanent death is a peaceful outcome for them. Think about it, their journey is the only thing giving their life meaning either Linking the Flame which would further expand the already unnaturally long lifespan of the world (which mind you we wouldn’t have to do if Gwyn wasn’t so paranoid), or let it die which would usher the end but it’s heavily implied in future games that this is not only natural but necessary for new life. The Dovahkiin did do something seriously messed up for everyone but it would work out in the long run. Sorry for rambling, I just really appreciate heroes like the Chosen Undead that keep going when it is essentially pointless. I just find it solemnly inspirational.

    They didn't even include everything for the dragon born. They only included only like 10 shouts in the breakdown and only like 6 in the actual fight whereas in the game he has 27 with dragon aspect which draws out the full potential of the dragon born making them walking gods of destruction and enhances all their shouts around double the effects. Not to mention the dragon born also has a stronger dragon summoning shout where he summons an undead and unkillable dragon to support him. It's a dragon you meet in the soul cairn and unlike the regular dragon summoning shout he used, the undead dragon he summons can communicate with the dovahkin and coordinate attacks with him and what makes the undead dragon even better is that he literally trash talks the enemies it's bodying 😂. Also unlike the regular dragon the dragon born summons with the regular dragon summoning shout, this undead dragon actually uses more than 1 shouts ability. The regular dragon only uses the fire shout ability whereas the undead dragon can use soul tear, the frost shout etc. Also the dawnbreaker technically isn't the strongest daedric weapon in the game. Theres stronger weapons in the lore like the dagger of mehrunes dagon which has a chance to insta kill an enemy, a big ass samurai sword that drains life force and becomes stronger etc. Also the dragon rend shout in the game forces an immortal being to experience mortality. People just think it is only useful to dragons since the dragon born mostly uses it against dragons in game mechanics but if you look at the translation for the dragon words in the select screen the dragon shout literally translate to saying "mortal" or "be mortal" and the lord confirms to forces mortality on immortal beings making them easier to kill. Not to mention they literally used the dragon Borns level 1 armor 😂. They didn't even use his dragon armor or any other armor with enchantments 😂.

Its a magical god bow with a magical god arrow empowered by the blood of a being cursed by an elder spirit that has existed longer than the world.

    And Dragons in "The Elder Scrolls" aren't just big fire-breathing lizards, they're literally living fragments of time.

    "Qverlord
    1 day ago
    this fight had so many clever moments.
    my favorite is the dragonborn realizing the vow of silence is over when the chosen undead can make sound and he used that moment of pride as an opening to turn it against the chosen undead.
    the chosen undead linking the first flame is also clever and flavorful to the lore. Remember that when Gwyn linked the first flame he incinerated the black knights that followed him. the Chosen Undead was attempting to do that again here by trying to nuke the dragonborn as a last resort.
    and the dragonborn respond was perfect. The dragon shout is a reality bending power, when two dragons fight one another, they are debating on who is correct. To dragon, power is truth, those who are stronger are right and therefore their truth becomes reality in a literal sense. The dragonborn using unrelenting force is him enforcing his will upon reality, he's defying the reality of the flame hurting him. Since the dragonborn defeated Alduin, an entity on par if not greater than the first flame, his will is stronger than the flame and he snuffed it out."
    And my response to it was
    "Dragonborn really said no you to the first flame and won"
    Also Fireborn absolutely slaps. Great song by Brandon

    To answer the question about whether you can actually do that with the basket, yes, you can indeed. To be caught, you have to be seen doing the act. If they have a basket covering their head, they can't see you. They also said that for this fight, they were gonna give both combatants EVERYTHING, and max all their stats.
    And yeah, there's a whole lot of crazy going on with the Dragonborn. To give you an idea of some of the stuff that they DIDN'T take into consideration, I'll go over some Shouts:
    Summoning Odahviing was cool, but there's a second dragon you can call in, Durnehviir. Not only is this undead dragon capable of being just as much of a pain as Odahviing in a fight with its own Shouts, they're also a necromancer, so they're able to raise the dead for even more foes to hound the Chosen Undead. The Shout known as Become Ethereal allows the Dragonborn to become a spirit that cannot be harmed in any way, but cannot harm as a balance. And if we're taking the Meditation into consideration too, the Dragonborn will regen health faster. The Drain Vitality Shout can drain not just Health, but Stamina and Magic, quickly depleting the Chosen Undead's options. Marked for Death utterly shreds armour, Dragon Aspect just overcharges the Dragonborn's power and Disarm can just send the Chosen Undead's weapons flying away.
    As a final note, was kinda sad that the Bloodskal Blade didn't show up, because that thing is capable of unleashing energy wave slashes just like the Moonlight Greatsword, would've been cool to see those two clashing

    Well you mentioned something about the music so let me explain
    The track for this episode is called "Fireborn" and made by Brandon Yates who has done most of the tracks for this show with the other big composer for the show being Therewolf Media
    They both do some absolute bangers alongside doing commission tracks for "what if matchups"
    I'd suggest you to someday react to some of their tracks by themselves whether they are the official DB ones or commissions as that just sounds like it would be fun, also if you're worried about copyright don't worry as atleast Brandon is fine with his music being used as long as you credit him
    For tracks I'd suggest you to listen to for either a reaction or just for yourself, well for official ones I'd go with "Fireborn" (Dark souls vs skyrim) "Hedge of tomorrow" (Trunks vs Silver) "Princes of Pride" (Thor vs Vegeta) and Balderdash (Saitama vs Popeye) there are alot of other really good ones but those are the first ones I could think of
    For commission tracks I'd highly recommend "Will of the Drill", "Marvel for all", "Explosion in E minor" and "Devil Draws near"
    There's much more but those once again just came to mind first

    Definitely give a listen to the official death battle music tracks. The very first one they specifically commissioned was the track for Goku vs. Superman, the season 1 finale. After that, three episodes in season 2 featured commissioned tracks: "Alive" in the Goku vs. Superman rematch, "Exo" in Raiden vs. Wolverine, and "You Have Failed this City" in Hawkeye vs. Green Arrow, all by this same composer Brandon Yates. In season 3 he made the scores for Ganon vs. Bowser and Mewtwo vs. Shadow. In season 4, the score for Power Rangers vs. Voltron. And in the same season, from Naruto vs. Ichigo onward, *all* the battle tracks were commissioned, mostly from Brandon and Therewolf Media. And they slap hard. It's great to finally have them give him a shout-out, especially in an episode whose track he made with the help of a choir of actual Death Battle fans.

(I mean technically those are achieved by exploiting the mechanics, but who cares) You can turn yourself into a god! If you make a powerful enough potion there’s a spell that can kill everything in render distance in an instant, and even sticks around for awhile. Even if you argue that the Dragonborn would die of old age first, no. He can become an immortal vampire and never age.

    In the fight the Dragonborn should have been wearing either dragon bone or dragon scale armor instead of the basic armor that you can loot off the first bandit you kill. He also started off with an iron sword instead of a dragon bone sword also Ariel's Bow is used mainly with sunhallowed arrows which cause small explosions of sunlight on impact that deal burning damage. Also by max level the Dragonborn would have enchanted his armor to heal himself and restore his magic and stamina almost instantly since if you do it right ability boosting potions can be made up to a ridiculous level of power. I would have liked to see them clash the lighting storm spell against the soul stream spell.

    Breath Ice
    Shout an unstoppable blast of force
    Banish you to Oblivion/Hell
    Teleport to other Realms

    They got a good bit of Souls lore wrong. The First Flame didn't create the flow of time or energy, it gave a reference point. When everything is the same dull grey, what _is_ light or dark? When you have no frame of reference for how long it's been since something happened, does time exist? When everything everywhere is the same temperature, what is heat or cold? How would you know what cold even IS if you've never been warm? What the Flame did was create _CONTRAST_ and create a frame of reference. Now that heat exists, people are _capable_ of knowing what cold is. Now that the start of the Flame is remembered as something actually happening, time exists, because you have a _starting point._
