First up in today's lineup, a martial arts showdown of epic proportions. I've seen people debate White Ranger vs Scorpion, and..that's a good debate don't get me wrong, but there's bigger ways to do this one. So I'm upping the ante for this. Standing in the western corner of the Arena, we have Tommy Oliver the Green Dragon Ranger, Tommy Oliver the White Tiger/Falcon Ninja Ranger, Tommy Oliver the Red Zeo Ranger, and Tommy Oliver the Black Brachio Ranger hailing from..the Power Rangers universe in four different points of time. In the East Corner we've got, Four Mortal Kombat Ninjas, Reptile Scorpion Ermac and Subzero.

Ok, now I would like to start by saying that I grew up with both of these. My fondest memories were of watching Power Ranger and plying Mortal Kombat. Now that that is out of the way, I think the early edge will go the the PR side, and here is my reasoning. They are all the same guy,albeit with varying degrees of skill, experience, and wisdom. Since they are all the same guy(right down to their DNA and fingerprints)they will work better as a fighting unit. They will be able to coordinate themselves better than the MK team who, while powerful, are not often on the same wave length when it comes to team work (much less in the case of scorpion and sub-zero who will be at least distrustful of each other at best. I think the ranks of the PR team will flow like this: (oh, by Power I mean{Strength,speed, agility,endurance, as well as suit/ranger powers)
TO - Black: Leader: -----Years more skill, experience, wisdom, and far greater power than the others
TO - Red: Second -----Slightly greater to the other two TOs in skill -----slightly more experience & wisdom -----Second strongest in power levels
TO - White: Third -----Equal in skill to Green -----slightly More experience than Green -----Stronger in power than Green
TO - Green: Fourth -----Equal in Skill to White -----Least experienced -----Weakest in power -----Far more Reckless in combat due to lack of experience.

I'd also say Green has the short end of the stick weapon wise having a dagger while the other Tommy's have swords or staff sword..thing. Black is going to be the most dangerous to team Mortal Kombat due to his earthquake powers I'd say.

I'll try and find a clip of it. Also, Evil Green Ranger got this badass Blade Yes I know that this is a pic of the toy, but you get the idea. that he often dual wielded with his Dragon Dagger

Ok, yea, I found some examples of the Dragon dagger shooting Green energy blasts /Green Lightning . Tommy Oliver's vision Quest. The visions are (of course, not as strong as the real life things but it is does have a good example of the Dragon dagger's lightning attack.), and the reason Green was strongest is because this was more of Tommy facing his inner demons, so its understandable that his strongest inner Demon would be when he was Evil Green.

So yea, I think after a long hard fought battle, the TO Power Rangers will come out on top.

what order do you think they'll go down in and to whom?

what order do you think they'll go down in and to whom? I think they will win; however, if I have to pick who will go down first, and to whom....I would say Green first and possibly to scorpion. I say this because Green has the least experience fighting and is the one who would most likely, if the others didn't stop him or come to his aid, recklessly attack the strongest of the MK group.

No I meant which MK people would go down in what order and to whom.

No I meant which MK people would go down in what order and to whom. Well, it all depends. Like I said, Green Ranger would likely be the first to rush into combat. That being said, the others would be there to back him up. Hummmm...... Well we already have seen that White can take on(and down) Scorpion. Reptile would probably go down to Red or Black (by the time TO got to these colors he has encountered at least one, maybe more, monsters with the same/similar abilities. Black would probably take on Ermac Due to Ermac seeming like the biggest threat and would require Black's level of skill to battle. That Leaves Green with Sub-Zero, I think that it would be slightly in Sub-Zero's favor (due to Green being so inexperienced); however, where Green Lacks in experience, he makes up for in raw tenacity and brute force, so he should be able to hold his own until one of the other colors gets freed up and can lend him a hand.

Just in case, are we using the Video-Game versions of the MK Side, or are we using the MK: Legacy versions? Both are formidable and deadly which should go without saying.
