if mortal kombat were to face of with dc universe mortal kombat would win

. . . ~~~~~~~ Rebuttals ~~~~~~~ /// Superman vs. Scorpion /// Well, my opponent is right in one regard with his assertion. Scorpion's hellfire would probably be able to do harm to Superman, but other than that there is really nothing he could do. Scorpion has no superhuman powers other than his ability to teleport and utilize hellfire. While I realize that the hellfire MIGHT be able to harm Superman, I doubt it would be enough to incapacitate him. Here is an example of Superman's durability when it comes to magic: "He was able to survive when he had a magical sword in the chest and a magical arrow in his back. It was during a fight against four Elder Gods. A fight that Superman won. He was able to withstand a magical blast that managed to knockout the entire JLA and both Wonder Woman (magic being) and Zauriel (Angel). He went after the [enemy] in question and stopped him.[1]" Scorpion has nowhere close to the kind of power that could simultaneously knock out the entire Justice League of America. Counter this with the fact that Superman's combat abilities are superior to those of Scorpion [2]. The fight between these two would be short, even with Scorpion's immortality, he is not invulnerable, like Superman, and can therefore be worn down. Lastly, the attack my opponent describes in the final half of his argument is a fatality attack, not one that Scorpion is able to use in normal combat. ~~~ /// Martian Manhunter vs. Shang Tsun /// My opponent's entire argument here relies on exploiting Martian Manhunter's psychosomatic fear of fire. The only problem here is that Martian Manhunter no longer has a psychosomatic fear of fire [3]. I will allow my opponent time to rework this match-up before presenting arguments in favor of Martian Manhunter. ~~~ /// Black Adam vs. Raiden /// It is not safe to say that Raiden would be able to take away Black Adam's powers. My opponent is referring to this phrase from the source I provided: "It is known that certain gods of sufficient power, can manipulate Shazam's spell and render Black Adam back to the human form of Teth-Adam once more." [4] Since Raiden is not of the DC Universe originally it is unlikely that he is among the certain few that are able to rescind Black Adam's powers. It is also worth noting that Gods in the Mortal Kombat Universe are significantly different than those of the DC Universe. Their gods change much of the time and can be killed because they are only able to fight in mortal form [5], whereas the gods of the DC Universe are similar to those described in the various mythologies such as Norse, Roman, Greek, and Egyptian. Raiden's powers are also limited to control over lightning, a very powerful mastery, flight, and teleportation via the utilization of an ethereal state. Raiden, like Scorpion, does not have any other superhuman abilities. Black Adam on the other hand is imbued with the power of the Egyptian gods by speaking the word "SHAZAM." This grants him the abilities including: - "withstand[ing] and surviv[ing] all types of extreme physical assaults" [5] - "easily running at a speed of over Mach 500" [5] - "mystically fly[ing] through the atmosphere" [5] - "strength that enables him to lift 100,000 tons effortlessly" [5] - "An uncanny awareness of his circumstances that allows him to turn disadvantages into advantages" [5] - and "He can channel the Power of Aton and the other Gods to increase the power of his attacks to God like levels, whilst doing this he has hurt the likes of Spectre himself." [5] - (Spectre, for comparison: [6]) With these powers Black Adam would decimate Raiden. ~~~ /// The Flash vs. Sub-Zero /// This battle is deceptively the most lopsided in my favor. The Flash's powers are derived from a force referred to as Speed Force [7]. The speed force grants The Flash a variety of powers, two of which are specifically able to decimate any conceivable opponent is utilized. The first is Speed Steal, which allows The Flash to rob objects of their kinetic energy, rendering them inert [7], or turning them into statues. The second power is the Infinite Mass Punch [7][8, image]. After rendering Sub-Zero inert The Flash could begin to move at close to the speed of light and deliver a single punch that has the power of a White Dwarf star going supernova. Since Sub-Zero dos not have superhuman endurance [9] the blow would utterly obliterate him. ~~~ /// Green Lantern vs Shao Khan /// To assert that Shao Khan could break Green Lantern's constructs using the comparison of Mileena my opponent must show that Mileena's barriers are of equal to the durability of Green Lantern's constructs. He has not done this. Therefore for the sake of this match-up it will be assumed that Green Lantern will not specifically form barriers to protect himself. This hardly limits him in regards to combat. The things he can construct are only limited by his imagination and have the capabilities to lift in excess of 100 tons [10]. Due to my opponent's argument relying on his character being able to destroy the constructs of mine, I will allow him to actually show how this is so before elaborating my arguments. ~~~ I look forward to my opponent's response.
