I was talking with a friend and we somehow came up with a conversation about Alpha(from MMBN:3) fighting Duo(from MMBN:4) and I want your thoughts. If these two were put head-to-head (Dispite the titles that come with them, and what they have done in the past..) who would win??

I feel sad that it came down to alpha and duo...
Bass is still gonna kill them both:devil:
Or some ambitiuos(sp?) navi with a REALLY big gun....:D

I\'m going with Duo. If you think about it, Megaman pretty much destroyed Alpha, while at least the head of Duo\'s security program was left over. Though, Duo\'s main strength lies in his ability to control an enormous meteor anyways. I don\'t know.

Duo killlllll alpha!:devil:




Duo:packman thing alpha:Burger



:miam:

Duo... Anything else?

Alpha-- destroys the internet, therefore destroying the planet Earth.
Duo-- destroys the planet Earth, and goes on to destroy the other planets.
While Alpha, I think, has more malicious intent then Duo, Duo\'s just got a better track record.

EDIT: I realized I just said, \"Duo destroys the Earth, and then the Earth.\" It\'s changed now.

To all Duo fans...We Rock!
Alpha goes down.:devil:
<.< >.>
Hope alpha fans didn\'t hear that...:eek:

Mega Man wanted to show Duo that all humans and navi weren\'t evil and deleting him wouldn\'t prove that. Alpha on the other hand, was a monster with no mind and simply needed to be destroyed. In a head to head fight between them, i have to go with Alpha because it was able to absorb Forte.exe, one of the most powerful navis in an instant.

Alpha vs. Duo... Meh, it\'s pretty well even, isn\'t it? If you go by game standards, it would be my guess that Alpha would probably win. After all, it takes multiple attacks to weaken his barrier, and Duo\'s punches hit once, maybe twice each panel. Duo does have that laser though... but Alpha would be able to attack Duo more often than Duo could attack Alpha. *punches numbers on his calculator* um, yes, Alpha should win by regular game standards, I believe. If we consider that Duo has only the amount of HP present in the initial playthrough, then the damage dealt by Alpha, which is a constant 100dmg (I think) per downward swipe, hitting 2 out of 3 times, would do 400dmg total for each time that Duo attacked using the frontal laser. Alpha\'s attacks would deplete Duo at such a rate that by the time he used the whole \"face laser kills j00\" thing, it wouldn\'t much matter, because Alpha would be able to withstand it.

Now, from a more story-driven point of view, I\'d say that it would be an even draw between the two. Alpha is able to move and spread his influence more easily than Duo, since Duo never leaves his asteroid. However, in the event that the two main bodies met eachother, Duo\'s sheer mass would be able to handle Alpha\'s rate of growth effectively enough. However, Duo is the one with the ability to affect things in the real world, while Alpha merely causes them to cease working. Duo would be able to actively destroy the hardware on which Alpha ran, thus utterly destroying the exit for Alpha should it be harmed. So, it would probably be a stalemate until the pair came upon another sentient planet far away that would interface with the Meteor. At that point, it would probably be a mutual decision that Alpha exit the meteor for self-preservation... Until Duo crushed the interfacing planet and deleted Alpha once and for all. Duo = the winner!

Happy now, \"Alpha could beat Duo\" chatters?

Alpha does more than cause things to stop working. After all, he made the tanks go beserk.

Besides, Alpha could probably just absorb Duo and be done with it.

If Alpha could just absorb anything, he would have absorbed Megaman, right? He was able to absorb Bass because of two reasons: He was unaware, and he\'s really not THAT powerful. Powerful indeed, but obviously not powerful enough. Therefore, if Duo managed to survive the battle with Megaman, and Alpha didn\'t, it\'s reasonable to think that unless he has the Majin Buu like quality of absorbing anyone naturally stronger than him, he would probably not be able to absorb Duo.

By game standards though, Alpha would probably win, cause he has that membrane. Lord, that\'s irritating.:mad:

Ehehe... no, sorry, I\'d forgotten.:D;

Yeah, but Alpha didn\'t completely destroy MegaMan\'s data, did he? If that were the case, Lan\'s father wouldn\'t have been able to reassemble it into a navi for MMBN4. So, isn\'t it safe to assume that the larger an item is, the longer it would take for Alpha to absorb it? Duo\'s huge, the steering on his ship alone took the calls of an entire world to even budge. Putting it to scale, it would take Alpha a pretty darn long time to totally assymilate Duo, and the alien guy isn\'t exactly stupid, either. He has self-awareness, which means he would probably realize that Alpha\'s main ability is absorbtion, and thus would try to stop the impending attacks accordingly. Of course, this is all purely speculation, but still...

I believe that the only reason Megaman survived was beacuse Tadashii Hikari\'s data shipped him off to the area of Alpha that Alpha couldn\'t touch.

In other words, it was an inside job.

*goes through and plays the ending one last time*

Okay, yes. You\'re right, Dr. Light\'s (Any overweight bearded man looking like Santa is Dr. Light in my book) program saved Megaman by transporting him into the room where Lan and Mega met their grandfather. That\'s why Alpha couldn\'t reach him, and why it took so long for Dr. Hikari to unlock the data: that area was the best-fortified, and so the most encrypted. So, then, it would appear that Alpha would be the winner of this bout, either story-driven or attack pattern scenarios. Oh well, I liked how Alpha looked better than Duo anyways. Should\'ve kept the irregular-sized right arm and jet pack on the old bean.

yeah im going to go with Duo.He seems alot harder once you fight him at his last from.

no matter who wins ...... they with both die..... by Bass!!!!

of course duo going to win he has metal armor and all that he will smash alpha to a little pieces!:devil:

hubactaxle, don\'t double post, there is an Edit button, you know.

After much thought and much compairing/contrasting, I have come to the conclusion that Duo could beat Alpha. Why you ask? For one simple reason: Duo wouldn\'t be hit by most of his attacks.

• If I can remember correctly, Alpha\'s attacks mostly have to do with panels, as does Duo\'s, but Duo isn\'t on any panels.
• Duo can move to three different squares, while Alpha sits in one, leaving him vulnerable.
  
• Duo just sounds better. XD
  

Well, depends.
Alpha
+Gel Barrier
-Would be broken by zap attack
Duo
+Super Hard Mode
+Shield
=pwns

NO no no. Alpha\'s core armor regens way faster than Duo Standard attacks. Also, when Alpha starts pulling our reverse vulcan and Alpha arm Omega, guess who gets fried? Duo\'s stationary when he attacks, leaving him extrmely vunerable to all but one of Alpha\'s attacks.
And Alpha has way cooler battle music.

NO NO NO!
Duo MOVES! at least...
Alpha\'s straight foreward arm attack COULD hit Duo, his Laser COULD do that too, and his guns attack panals so it doesn\'t affect Duo...
BTW, Alpha\'s swiping arm is useless, it would hit Duo\'s arm, leaving Duo unharmed, since you gotta hit his \"hotspot\".
And Duo laser will deffnittly KILL\'EMALL!!! Except for me that is, I beat him daily for sport, since I\'m getting bored in vacation, somehow...
