Gonna give my two cents on this in a bit.

So The Beheaded has AP, Durability, LS, possibly Range, Abilities and Hax over Joseph here.

Joseph is smarter, but I don’t know how skilled he is, and considering The Beheaded has countless lives worth of experience of skill dealing with hordes of enemies, as well as bosses. He’s even able to defeat them in situations where he himself would DIE in a single hit.

Doesn’t help that Joseph here would be dealing with…

1. Sinew Slicer
2. Heavy Turret
3. Flamethrower Turret
4. Mushroom Boi
5. Great Owl of War
6. Serenade
7. Maria’s Cat

7 other sources of attacks specifically tracking and/or going after him alongside The Beheaded, and this doesn’t even GET into the multitude of shit he can just throw at Joseph. He can boobytrap the entire battlefield with things like Cleaver, Crusher, Wolf Traps, and the Barnacle.

He also doesn’t seem to have any resistance to any of the Status Effects The Beheaded can put on him, such as Bleeding, Burn, Shock, Poison, Slow, Stun and Freeze. The last one is a big no no for Joseph because it leaves him utterly helpless here.

Joseph COULD try and rely on his Tommygun, but the moment he tries to get some distance to do so, the Beheaded could just teleport behind him with Phaser, and bombard him with whatever attacks he wants to use at that point. Doesn’t help that most if not ALL Joseph’s attacks can be parried by any of Beheaded shields, some weapons and Cocoon.

Even IF he managed to somehow land a lucky hit, things like Ice Armor would actively punish him for doing so, and auto-freeze his entire body. Foresight also allows Beheaded some leeway, because if Ice Armor is out of commission for whatever reason, that’d allow The Beheaded to take one attack, and if he discards it, he’s immune to anything Joseph does here for 2 seconds.


Edit: I’ll put the links in for the respective abilities for a bit, I just needed to actually get this out here.

Okay a few of questions:
1) How many weapons/items can The Beheaded use at once?
2)Are his weapons/items scattered in the arena like in his game?
3)Would it be possible for Joseph to be able to pick up and use those items for himself?

From what I had seen in previous debates and even a whole tournament, The Beheaded just has EVERYTHING unless stated otherwise. Same thing for that second question, unless stated otherwise he just has them on his person.

3)Would it be possible for Joseph to be able to pick up and use those items for himself?

I mean, if Beheaded for whatever reason decided to discard it, sure?

Okay I guess I'll just concede here cause I don't really see any way for Joseph to pull off a win here when he's both out-muscled and out-haxed.

Ah phooey I forgot about this.

Uhhhh, The Beheaded would throw Medusa’s head at Joseph, turning him into stone before he’d pull out the Symmetrical Lance and slash at Joseph twice, both slices splitting Joseph into two pieces. Afterwards, he’d use the Wave of Denial to blast whatever’s left of Joseph right into the wall, causing his remains an’ such to splatter against it.

also Rex you should TOTALLY check ts out…
