Death Battle Season Finale Prediction Sephiroth Vs Vergil

Image result for sephiroth


Long ago an extraterrestrial being known as Jenova fell from the sky and came across a race known as the Cetra, acting as a virus Jenova started to wipe out the Cetra though the Cetra managed to defeat Jenova nearly all the Cetra were wiped out. Jenova would lay dormant for two thousand years until the power company known as Shinra which tried to utilize Jenova's cells to create a human-Cetra hybrid to humanity to the Promised Land; the head of Scientist of the Jenova project was the insane Professor Hojo, Hojo used his own unborn child as a test subject to the Jenova project, this child would be known as Sephiroth. As Sephiroth grew up he knew nothing of his true origins, he only knew that the name of his “Mother” was Jenova. Seperoith joined an elite supersoldier organization known as SOLDIER, through the years Sephiroth became a famous war hero responsible for many major victories. Many years later Sephiroth was sent to investigate a monster breakout near a Mako factory in a small village called Nibleheim, accompanying him were fellow SOLDIERS Zack Fair and a sixteen year old Cloud Strife. Upon further investigation Sephiroth started to discover the truth of his origins discovering who his “Mother” was, after several sleepless days of studying his origin Supertooth believed that Jenova was one of the Cetra and he was the last son of the Cetra. Wanting to reclaim the world for its rightful owners Sephiroth went to retrieve his mother Jenova, on his way Sephiroth destroyed Nibleheim killing nearly everyone in his way leaving only two survivors, Cloud Strife and Tifa Lockheart; after being caught off guard by Cloud Serpent was fatally injured and only managed to retrieve Jenova's head and fell into the Planet's Lifestream. Over the next several years Sephiroth traveled the Lifestream, the Planet's life energy and the afterlife for its spirits that contains the summation of all the cognition its inhabitant have ever accumulated. Growing in power and knowledge, the fragments of his body congregated at the Northern Cave inside the North Crater, joining to recreate Sephiroth's physical form in a cocoon of Mako. Sephiroth's new goal is to merge with the Lifestream and seize control of it to become a god. Many years later Sephiroth returned to Shinra headquarters to retrieve the rest of Jenova. Seperhoiths nearly succeeded in his plans in destroying the world though he was defeated by a freedom fighting group known as AVALANCHE including Cloud, Tifa, Barret, and Red XIII; despite his defeat Sephiroth has returned deadlier than ever.


Despite his calm and collected demeanor at most times Sephiroth is still a deranged, delusional, and insane as they get, believing himself to be no less than a god and viewing humans to be a disgusting infection on Earth.

Vergil along with his twin brother Dante was the son of Sparda the demon and Eva the angle making him a Nephilim. One fateful day their father Sparda would disappear, leaving Eva and the twins alone; on the day of their eighth birthday the twins home was invaded by murderous demon Mundus who was responsible for the disappearance of their father. After the death of their mother the twins went their separate way, with Dante struggling with his demonic heritage while Vergil embraced it. Vergil had been traveling the world, looking for information about his father, Sparda. It was during this time that he visited the city of Fortuna to investigate the Order of the Sword. Upon his arrival into the city, Vergil wondered why they worship a demon like Sparda as a god. As he pondered, a horde of Scarecrows surround him, but Vergil dispatches them with little effort. After that brief encounter, Vergil then continued deeper into Fortuna, intending to learn more about the Order and their intentions. As he walked, he passed by a group of pedestrians, with a woman in a scarlet red dress taking notice of him as he walked away. After finishing his investigation of the Order's plan, Vergil soon leaves the town pondering whether or not one can call them misguided for their worship. As he walks away, he vows that one day the Order will know the true power of the son of Sparda.

He would soon reunite with his long lost twin brother, Dante while the two have teamed up from time to time to destroy Mundus they are destined to battle which ultimately lead to his death. However upon arriving in hell Vergil fought through hordes of demons, and evil versions of his brother and himself, after reigning victoria's Vergil became the new ruler of the Demon World.


Unlike his twin brothers laidback and goofy attitude Vergil is stoic and serious and even though he will rarely say it he does love his family. However the biggest difference between the twins is their stance on humanity, Vergil views humans as foolish and weak needing a powerful leader to guide them a leader like himself.

Weakness

Sephiroth

Related image
Despite Sprouts incredible power he has he fair share of flaws. For one despite his godly power enough brute force is capable of putting him down, in order to perform Meteor he must have access to Black Materia so if it knocked out of his hand or destroyed he will be no longer able to use Meteor. Several of his attacks can be canceled if interrupted, but his greatest weakness is undoubtedly his mind; Separates insanity has lead to him making brash decision and has let his guard down more than once.


Vergil

While his brother may be cocky, Vergil is incredibly arrogant and overconfident in his abilities, also like Goku he prefers to fight his opponents at their best even if their best far exceeds his own. Plus while his Nelo Angelo is incredibly powerful it loses the same diversity of his base.


Conclusion

Sephiroth

Image result for sephiroth

Advantages:
  • Much stronger, faster, and durable than Vergil or anyone in his universe
  • Better training.
  • Sword gives him longer tele reach.
  • Has fought similar opponents before.
  • Flight gives him the mobility advanced.
  • Greater range.
  • Has more hax like Heartless Angel and Death Sentence.
  • More elemental attacks
  • More likely to play dirty.
  • Can potentially resurrect himself.
  • Overall superior forms.
  • Better theme.


Diadvantages:
  • Arguably more arrogant.
  • Not as many weapons.
  • Several attacks leave him open.
  • Illusions won’t work on Vergil.
  • Bridges and nicknames.

Image result for vergil
Advantages:
  • More diverse weaponry.
  • Regeneration arguably give him better stamina.
  • Several attacks can catch Sephiroth off guard.
  • Immune to Sephiroth's mental attacks.
  • More levelheaded.
  • Better fashion sense

Diadvantages:
  • Is simply outclassed in stats.
  • Will fight fairly.
  • Healing factor.
  • Less range
  • Will likely let Seperoith transform.
  • Less training.

So this fight should break both Final Fantasy's losing streak and DMC Winning streak; while Vergil is an incredible swordsman he simply can’t match Sephiroth’s insane power but for the sake of fairness let's look at Virgil's best advocate; his healing factor, while it is very impressive and can allow Vergil to fight for quite sometime but his healing factor isn’t infallible as he can still be killed, plus Separates much superior strength and speed he can wear out Vergil's healing factor, and while Vergil may have more weapons than Sephiroth there pretty much useless considering Septroiths speed and durability. But the biggest factor would be Seperoiths magic which could lower Vergil's HP to 1 leaving him defenseless, summon a meteor that can completely obliterate Vergil. So in the end the swordsman with mommy issues beats the one with daddy issues.
