Phantom Express vs Ghost Train

[Arrogant_Schmuck]

Lo and behold I never thought I'd find such a fitting/thematic opponent for a Cuphead character. Their names are practically synonymous with each other

Phantom Express vs Ghost Trai

Win via KO, incapacitation, or death. SPEED EQUALIZED

Phantom Express's AP: 0.038 tons

Ghost Train's AP: 0.052 tons

Actually due to verse equalization Blind Specter should be able to hit the Ghost Train assuming it's a ghost. Specterals, who are humans who possess "spirit energy" can interact with ghosts/spirits.

That said I'm not really sure if the Ghost Train's space Manip is actually permanent, but regardless it would warp the phantom express around it. Said warping also works on a barrier made of spectral energy so the Blind Specter needs to attack it on the sides.

Personally I'm betting on the Ghost Train for now. While it is certainly less competent, it is not bound by rails and if it rams into the Phantom Express it'll get a gaping hole of warped space and probably get derailed as a result.

Meanwhile the Phantom Express can only really harm the Ghost Train through the Blind Specter, and with less AP it'll be hard to fully stop/destroy the spirit.

Ghost Train takes this high-diff.

So what if Blind Specter weren't a ghost? He can still be hit with normal shots unlike the mausoleum ghosts which need to be parried. So idk for sure if he'd qualify

 

[Dargoo_Faust]

I mean.

Spectrals are tangible but because they have "spectral energy" they can interact with Spirits/Ghosts.

If it looks and acts like a ghost I feel like verse equalization would at least allow it to hit the Ghost Train.

Theres also a few other ghosts chugging on the Phantom Express as homing fodder whic his a piece of ******** AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Basically the blaze bois can hurt the phantom train through summoning ghosts

 

[Arrogant_Schmuck]

Oh yeah that's also a thing

Also relatable af @ the ghosts moving my cart when I don't want it to REEEEEE

 

[Dargoo_Faust]

That helps, although I don't think it really changes the outcome here.

Might also be worth noting that Blind Specter isn't bound to the train

One of them realizes they're the same type of Stand and proceeds to win regardless of logic.

No the entire train is just hiding behind the podium

Ghost that is a Train - 3 (Dargoo, Schnee, Apies)

Train that has a Ghost - 0
