I like how you don't just factor in the Survivors' perks, but their personalities and lore as well. I agree that several of them would be most likely to escape their DLC counterparts. Poor Dwight, though 😭😂
I'm a big lore nerd so I love talking about the lore-implications for something like this. It was interesting how many I went with the DLC pairing on (even some that I had gone the opposite way when I actually did it based on DLC pairing alone 😂) but a lot of times their personality/lore was a good fit. Yeah, poor Dwight, I didn't legitimately pick him for anything did I? 😅😂
I think your reasoning on all of these is very solid. I would also pose another point in favor of your pick of Feng Min to survive Skull Merchant: we don't need to assume "gamer means tech savvy" for her, because we KNOW she's tech-savvy from her perk, Technician! And now, here are a couple weird left-field picks, largely based on lore rather than perks... Huntress: Cheryl or Rebecca. Anna has a soft spot for young girls and Cheryl and Rebecca might look young enough to register as "child" rather than "prey." Dredge: Kate. I think her "beacon of hope" status could make her genuinely powerful against the amalgamation of human suffering.
You make some really great points here! I hadn't thought about Technician (probably because I never run that perk and forgot about it 😅) so thank you for making my argument even stronger with some solid evidence! I like your thinking with Cheryl or Rebecca surviving Huntress. They might be a little too old, but also at the same time a plausible theory in my mind. I think you are spot on with Kate's "beacon of hope" descriptor being a powerful counter to the literal incarnation of evil thoughts. I like your thinking! Thanks for sharing.
Idiotic but like fengmins perk technician will just counter skull merchant soo hard skull merchant will give up as her drones will be used against her she will salvage a drone make a tracker and turn other drones against skull merchant so skull merchant would just give up
@@A_Random_IRS_B0T_ Nah Yui isn't particularly selfish, she's very competitive but her tome lore proved her to be less selfish. Yun Jin however is pretty selfish.
Awesome video! On Nemesis, I’d actually argue that Jill stands a worse chance against him then many others because Nemesis would go out of his way to kill her, and leave the others alone, because she’s STARS and it’s just his programming to hunt STARS and anyone who tries to stop him from doing that, so I’d think less altruistic survivors like Yun-Jin or Ada or even Tapp would have a better shot
@only right opinion Yes he does but canon wise if any stars members are in the trial and Nemesis sees them he will go after them first no what ifs about it.
love your reasoning on a lot of these. my slightly hilarious reason for why i think david would be best to escape clown is that he's a pub going brit so he's probably very accustomed to dizziness and having his vision blurred while under the influence I also think Ace would be a good choice for pig. considering his luck in the realm, i could honestly imagine him completely ignoring his head trap until the last second just to get it off first try for the sake of making it a gamble, which would probably really throw amanda off.
Bill would easily beat nemesis, he is very experienced fighting zombies (he would take small ones with just a tree branch) the only disadvantage would be that he would yell "tank!" Whenever he would see the killer
I completely agree with Feng vs the skull merchant but I think the honor mention should be Yui. She might just know how to repair motorcycles but that means she has experience of repairing and I think she will be an expert in hacking drones. Also the skull merchant is just a M1 killer so I do think any means necessary might be disgusting against her.
Finally someone who acknowledges that Yun-Jin would stand a chance against Trickster!! She’s clever and determined + she knows Trickster very well, how he thinks, acts and reacts
I think they are quite an even pair overall, but because of her knowing him personally and her tenacity, combined with the fact he no longer has the element of surprise, that definitely gives her an edge
You honestly had me agreeing with all of these. Also, as someone with a boyfriend who knows a lot about the Silent Hill lore James killed his wife because she was sick and wasn't gonna survive anyway. Guess he thought it was better for her to not suffer BUT he's been guilty of killing her ever since and that's how Pyramidhead comes in. Making people suffer the way James does. Kinda sad if you really think about it 😭 Another also, as an Artist main it takes more skill than you think to be able to hit birds just right but I'm so close to mastering her! The fact that you chose Ace, who happens to be a good friend of mine's survivor mains seems fitting to me, even in game play aspect 😂
I'm glad to know that I wasn't way off on these 😅Yeah, James' Silent Hill story is deeply tragic for sure! Silent Hill doesn't shy away from terrible tragedy. And I 100% respect that Artist takes a LOT of skill, hopefully I didn't come across as saying otherwise? I've played her enough myself to know that a skilled Artist main is going to be very powerful. But with you as an Artist main, I'm glad my choice of Ace felt fitting for you 😁
could also see the lyra siblings being very capable against speed killers because of their very on the run get out of trouble kind of lifestyle, especially with oni too because of how their abilities activate through healing and teamwork
Pyramid head is actually something that pseudo existed in the normal town before James showed up. Pyramid Heads manifestation is speculated to have been James’ subconscious creating a monster based on a painting of the ancient silent hill executioners in their bulky red hoods, this is found in the historical society of silent hill and parallels pyramid head.
I think Lore wise, Youichi being able to communicate with the dead and his parents being stalwart guardian's of his. When it comes to facing the undead. He has a good chance against alot of the paranormal killers.
my answer on all of those: Feng Min and Ada. the girlies would make an excellent team with an elite member of special forces and avid gamer who's actually enjoying her time in the Entity. i bet they'd have a lot of fun too
Those two would be a potent combo for sure! I definitely agree that Feng's attitude towards the Realm would be a major advantage for her and Ada's just awesome all around.
For pyramid head, it’s actually cannon that THIS pyramid head is tied to Cheryl. Not James. While James created the idea of pyramid head, the manifestations ties to silent hill stayed even after he wasn’t needed. That is until Cheryl came around with her immense guilt over Harry mason(her adoptive father who she technically killed just for breathing).
Interesting, thank you for sharing. Can you point me to where it says that this is Cheryl's Pyramid Head? I haven't found anything about that in the lore but I also haven't seen everything.
@@theARoberts ok so I’m the dbd lore for Cheryl it says she was plagued by nightmares. In her p3 head, it specifies that the death of Harry mason burdened Cheryl’s mind, making her think it was her fault. In pyramid heads p3 head piece, it literally states that he haunted Cheryl’s dreams.
Just a tip as an artist Player. If you see the crows fly past you on a gen but they don’t hit you get ready to start running because an artist probably just got killer instinct and they’re going to you.
I’ve always though Yun Jin was underrated and would absolutely dominate the trickster. The entity was scared of what she would do and she is one of the only survivors that has killer potential
They're both very intelligent and she has some rage on her side too. His main advantage before was she didn't know. Now she knows and could give him a run for his money for sure.
I'm a Yun-Jin main but I think it makes no sense for the entity to be afraid of what she would do. Yes she is a determined and strong woman for sure, but that does not guarantee that she can dominate the Trickster, I think you are underestimating him too much in the same way that many people underestimate Yun-Jin. But she has a big chance of course
But seriously, I think they would both be an even match because of the same reasons you listed her surviving trickster. They both know how eachother work, and so could work on that to their advantage
Nurse, from gameplay perspective, is an easy target for survivor Felix Richer, cus he has perk Built To Last, equipped with strong flashlight with increased duration, Felix would be able to prevent Nurse from blinking for 40+ seconds. I did it myself, results were amazing, she can't do anything but slowly walk.
Great video. Love the concept. Also if the artists crows miss you but get within a few meters of hitting you, she gets killer instinct of your presence. Js
The Knight is very parallel with the Evil Dead enemies he's fought, that's true. And you're not wrong on Ash escaping everyone, that's why I had to limit myself to 2 uses of a Survivor otherwise the whole list would have just been Ash and Cheryl.
Thank you! 😂I'm so glad someone actually stayed around for them and enjoyed them 😂I wasn't sure too many would. Glad to know too that I am not alone in my thoughts on these characters either
Besides Mikaela, I can also see Felix surviving the Hag. Since he would have an almost infinite charge of flashlight which would disable the Hag’s traps and making her a basic M1 killer
Well, I wouldn't say this was about who's the only one who could Survive, just who stands the best chance overall. And to that I would say unless I established that limitation for myself, Ash and Cheryl could be said about every character, since in my estimation they are the two strongest Survivors in the Realm (Ash because of his prophecy and Cheryl because of her connection to the Entity)
13:30 I’m pretty sure that your still revealed with killer instinct as long as the dire crows enter within a certain meter range of you when flying by but I’m not 100%
These all seem reasonable picks with the arguments you presented. I also like the edition of the bloopers not only in this vid but some of the other ones as well
Two names that didn't pop up but I would say with her medical knowledge and working in a team. You can't tell me that either Rebecca or Claudette could take on Oni. Especially in a team setting, these two have such an extensive knowledge of wounds and how to heal as well as their perks though more so Claudette than Rebecca. I also think Claudette stands a decent chance against Nemesis due to her not being a Star so if there is one Star in the team she is safe until they are dead. But also, I feel like for her loadout, She would have plenty of time to keep not just herself, but everyone else healed up enough to survive. Also think that If we are keeping all powers from the killers in the game, Then Twins are really powerful with Charlotte's ability to be able to see survivors who are close to Victor if he's left on the ground, so anyone without perks that let them move faster, could be in a lot of trouble.
Some great points here. I didn't really factor in the healing characters, did I? So thank you for bringing that up! And what you said about Twins makes sense, I honestly haven't played them enough so my in-game knowledge of them is lacking. I appreciate you adding that!
@@theARoberts Absolutely understandable, the first set of survivors were kind of archetypes so I'd have skipped them too. Another thing though is I reckon Claudette would know how many times and where she could get hurt in order to keep going and lose minimal blood or at least still have access to limbs. DUDE Twins are SCARY! (Mainly because there are like5 of us that play them)
Well honestly if a killer and survivor both come together, then they're generally the one's who are most likely to escape and survive. But I do agree with the vid so good job!
Me a Jake main who always gets cause in trappers traps: 👁️👄👁️ 4:43 that makes sense lol every time I play against the doctor as Jake the killer usually has a harder time finding me vs the other survivors
these make a lot of sense but i would argue that the "jonah can do puzzles so he could survive pig's trap" thing doesn't really work because amanda's trap in the game is not really a puzzle, the survivors just have to shove their hands in the box, wich i assume is filled with needles or something sharp, so they can find a key and get the trap out in fact most traps in the saw franchise are not really puzzles that they have to figure out, it's mostly about resilience, they have to do something really painful or unpleasant so they can escape so jonah would probably work better with pinhead since the lament configuration is actually a puzzle and he could figure it out quicker than anyone, so for who could survive amanda i would say that someone who can take a lot of pain would work better like david, ash or jill
This all makes sense, you make some great points. I have not seen Saw so I actually did not know the detail about Amanda's traps being unwinnable, thanks!
Interesting thought. If there's anyone in the realm who can compete with the Blight's knowledge it would be Claudette. Not sure how much time she's had to work on a counter to the serum between trials, but it's also something I've never thought about before.
I disagree with Trickster and Yun-Jin based on one thing: bloodlust. Trickster would probably throw the trial to make sure he finished the job. Who I would say for sure escapes Ji-Woon though? Leon/Carlos for a stupid reason. They're wearing body armor and his blades aren't razor sharp. Unless he hits them in the face with each one, they'll be fine.
Great point. I like your thinking on Leon and Carlos too. Gameplay-wise it obviously make no difference, but lore-wise they are wearing body armor and that would certainly help.
@@theARoberts I'm not 100% on what his throwable blades are in-game--I know it's been theorized they're fiberglass or even shards of CDs--but they're definitely not getting through armor. That said, you'd still not be happy if they hit your bare skin.
it's regrettable that yui didn't make the list, but if we are assuming she has teammates, Yui is more likely to sacrifice herself for others then to let her teammates die for her.
I think Ada would slam Skull Merchant, we know she's good at hacking in lore as well. She can simply demote the killer of her drones and leave her powerless.
Imagine where DBD gets an actual storyline where it is as usual like the game but gets expansion where the Survivors eventually find a way to escape the Entity's realm for good. And some are lucky and there are some that are unlucky. Where the survivors find a literal way to outsmart and counter their killer nemesis. And they might have found the Entity's weakness. And to those survivors who escaped when they return to their universe... I'd picture it like this: Resident Evil survivors: Jill Valentine returned to Raccoon City and it's somewhere in the events of RE3. As if she was gone like a minute, despite her time in the realm was way long. Same with Leon and other RE survivors. Ash? Same thing, the last thing he did in his universe before he was taken, when he went back, he was also surprised like he was gone for only a minute. I kinda think that most survivors who escaped when they returned to their own universes, instead of missing a lot of events, it looks like to their world that despite staying long to the Entity's realm, they didn't stay missing in their own universe. Is it vague? Forgive me if it is.
Not vague at all, I totally see what you're saying and definitely could see that being the case. I've heard some theories of the Entity's realm existing outside of normal time, so depending on that, if so, your thought could be spot on.
There are only 2 silent survivors, one is Ace if i am not mistaken, thaks to that he can hide much better than others. Claudett has good chances since her skin is black and her character skin is dark-red, she simply blends with terrain on most maps, especially with dark buildings.
Not a bad idea at all, but it would be tricky to do. RUclips only lets me do up to 4 options on an image poll, so I would have to narrow it down to 4 Survivors first and then let the community vote, which I think would be far less interesting. Non-image community posts don't do nearly as well either. To make it worth doing, I think I'd need to find a way to make sure people could vote for any Survivor.
I think yui would be my pick for someone like oni or twins but I did see you say in another comment you may regret not including her, other than that I'd say jonah might be good vs the skull merchant for similar reasons as feng min!
Interesting! Do you know where that comes from because I hadn't heard that before (other than the fact that he does show up in later games, but I think PH's creator didn't like that if I understand correctly)
Indeed he has, he was born in 1343. Now, a caveat to that, it's possible that with DBD being multiversal that it's not all on the same timeline. Not sure if the Devs have touched on that elsewhere.
All I'm saying is David was a rugby player and underground street fighter, if that doesn't scream top level athleticism to avoid majority of the killers I don't know what else does. If it was Rugby League he is by far the fittest survivor in the game in terms of cardio. In Rugby league you learn wrestling techniques to both tackle and escape tackles aka peoples holds and grips on you and you are drilled with cardio fitness as you are constantly moving either running back and forth 10 metres whilst making tackles chasing kicks, making runs with the ball, making decoy runs, running to support the ball runner in case they need to offload the ball. You are genuinely moving constantly for 40 minutes then you have a 5 minute break and you go for 40 minutes again. Completely different from any other sport where you can just be standing around (Soccer) or NFL where there is constant breaks in the game over and over, they are what I like to call 30 second athletes, or burst athletes like sprinters (MEG)
That's a really great point. Rugby is no joke! David would definitely have a lot of athleticism as well. So I'd agree for sure. I guess I only used David one other time so I could have gone with him at least one more time as well.
14:21 for wesker i'd say ada doesn't really have a great chance of escaping, the main reason she escapes in the RE games is because of her grappling hook which she doesn't have in DBD, chris, sheva and jill are the best survivors to escape wesker, they have fought against a much stronger wesker than dbd wesker and managed to survive, rebecca is an honourable mention as it seems wesker has an affection for her and wouldn't want to kill her, as he only shot to injure her in RE1.
That's fair, and I definitely can see that point. I know that Ada is familiar with how Wesker works which might work in her favor, so I'd still give her a chance. Ultimately it comes down to plot armor for me though 😂
I feel like it's cheating to choose licensed survivors to beat their associated licensed killer. Obviously we already know Jill can beat Nemesis, Laurie can beat Michael Myers, etc.
I understand your point, I did try to avoid it to some degree. That said, it's not necessarily a guarantee they'd win, since they are under different circumstances within the Fog, i.e. Jill has no weapons, etc.
Honestly I agree with the opinion of Carlos and Jill surviving Nemesis. Because, let's be honest here, all survivors would be trembling in fear if they saw Nemesis. Aside for Haddie and Ash. Those two are used to this. I mean it's a massive mass of meat, bone, and raw fucking power. Before I even knew who Nemesis was, I just looked at him and could tell that he could crush my head in his hand with no problem.
I might throw Cheryl and Bill onto that list as well, they've both certainly faced some similar horrors themselves. You are spot on that Nemesis would instill terror into just about anyone.
Honestly, I slept on this game for a long time thinking it was basic and had nothing for me to enjoy, and now, as you can see, I quite like it once I gave it a shot 😂 It's much more in depth than I first realized and I'm loving the lore. All that to say if you're at all interested I'd recommend trying it out. There's frequent sales so you can often find the base game for 50% off. It's also on GamePass if you have that for XBox, that way you could try it out free.
Just saying its canon now that Laurie beat Myers in a 1v1, sure he was much older and suffering from wounds and infection but she also is a lot older and just got out of a hospital. I could be biased though because Laurie is by far my favorite final girl and survivor.
True, but this is the younger Laurie in DBD. That said, I still always make the argument that the older versions of characters still demonstrate they have the potential to do those things so I still think it's a good point to make.
About jill trying to kill nemesis, Jill did needed to be saved in the remake because nemesis poisoned her in his second phase and got close killing jill if she didn’t have help from others multiple times so nemesis stands a high chance against jill
All true, I envisioned this as she does have help, another 3 Survivors on the team, possibly even Carlos since he's in the game now, and she doesn't need to kill Nemesis, just escape. That said, honestly Nemesis stands a high chance against most of the roster regardless, he's a beast.
im going to agree somewhat with every decision except for the last one, just because of skepticism. I personally believe that Felix or Yui would actually be better choices as both do have MECHANICAL know how. While this is something that does run off of more tech than just its mechanisms, both would have the mechanical know how to disable them.
I totally see what you are saying. The reason Feng Min takes the win for me, is because she does have a perk called Technician, so that kinda brought her up above the others for me:)
These are all great points and I think those are two excellent alternatives. I was thinking of it more from the tech side, but you're right that even though they are tech based, someone with a knowledge of mechanics would also be able to overcome that.
(this is me 100% being biased because Elodie is the queen of DBD) but I'd say that she'd escape from most killers due to her knowledge of the entity (and having escaped it before), and her ability to avoid and fight the Black Vale
Pinhead was pretty spot on, but similar to Onryo it's incredibly hard to escape him once they're summoned. There's another factor in the movies that could make a difference, and that's Cenobytes willingness to make a deal. My thoughts are that Yun Jin might be a contender if she sold someone else out. You got the Silent 'Phil" lore right on this, particularly about James. Just as an aside I think Behavior missed an opportunity around James as his own survivor with a unique set of perks that would be 'gilt' based, and totem based. There's a few possible endings in SH2 where perks and lore could come into play. Bad ending, he is overcome with guilt and drives himself into the lake to end it all. This could have been where the entity takes him. You get this when you beat the game and being reckless and unconcerned for your health, which could be a perk for him while being injured. Another ending is harder to get, but he does a silent hill ritual to attempt to revive his wife, but we don't know if it worked. That could be a totem perk of some kind.
Yeah against Pinhead and Sadako, there's no one who's taking them down, Sadako can instant snap necks and Pinhead is a demon that would instantly chain survivors.
I appreciate that extra context on the Cenobites, I would definitely agree then that Yun Jin would stand a chance then. Glad to know I got the lore right on SH 😂And I agree, James would have been a great second Survivor for that chapter. With most of the licensed chapters getting x2 Survivors, it's a little weird they didn't do this for SH
I think Ada has a good chance against wesker cuz Sheknows him and worked under him in RE4 so she knows him But I also think Rebecca may have a chance as well she's a medic and of course combat trained Wesker has also been shown to have feelings for Rebecca back in RE2 so I think it could be possible he would let her go as long as she doesn't piss him off
Yeah, I agree and think that makes Ada the most likely to survive him. I do see your point about Rebecca and I've actually made that same argument in past videos, but someone told me that he actually tries to kill Rebecca at one point? So that changed my mind, but sadly that's one of the few RE games I haven't played so I'm ignorant on that.
Yoichi is definitely one of the strongest Survivors in the realm because of his abilities. I honestly sometimes forget this, but he is the Survivor "equivalent" of Sadako like you said.
About Oni it would be hard You gotta know that the way of using the sword for knights long ago and samurais was really different and he could not know about the japanese use of the katana And don't even start with the kanabo probably Vittorio hasen't ever seen a weapon like that Yui maybe could also kinda survive a little while
I almost went with Yui actually, but settled on Vittorio. And that's a great point that fighting a Samurai would be different than fighting a Knight for sure. I honestly don't think anyone is escaping Oni, just that Vittorio has the "best" chance since he has fought with swords before, closer than anyone else on the roster.
well, realistically he probably has seen something like a kanabo. there has definitely been similar weapons to a kanabo in medieval Europe, so it would be safe to assume that unexpected weaponry wouldn't be an issue. but fighting styles would present a challenge, yeah.
@@redninenine_ I was thinking if he saw a tupe of weapon like that but I don't really know to much about weapons in that time period I know more about Japanese/Chinese weapons
@@theARoberts I was thinking for Nemesis also could Bill But Nemesis is 10 times dangerous than L4D especial zombies (I don't know to much about L4D, correct if im wrong)
I feel like a decent amount of knowledge around longswords can translate well for dealing with a katana, the fundamentals of fighting are still similar especially between Kenjutsu and european swordfighting
I feel like all the Resident Evil characters would survive against all the non supernatural killers, not just because I'm a huge fan of Resident Evil but also because they survived a whole lot of things in their games and possible plot armor
Id like to point out that Bill is the only character from Left 4 Dead that has canonically died, so no he has not survived a zombie apocalypse. Of 8 playable games across 2 games, only 7 get that distinction. Source: Left 4 Dead 2: The Passing (a campaign), you meet with the L4D1 characters and during the final stretch you complete an objective. Bill's corpse is laying around.
Yeah, that's a fair point. I shouldn't have said he survived. My thought was more he had survived a descent length of time and then sacrificed himself for his team (otherwise theoretically he could have survived longer, right? I've not actually played L4D so I may be incorrect in my thinking). But either way, what I said wasn't accurate. Thanks!
@@theARoberts Yeah I assumed as much. He's one of only 8 people (plus one or two NPCs) that actually made it far into the apocalypse. And it's unclear if he remained as a distraction, or if he wasn't able to run fast enough, or otherwise went on a suicide mission form the start. Either way, it's not a big deal, it was just an unimportant asterisk that doesn't affect your conclusion.
I certainly think Ash would have a high chance of survival against Doctor. His previous experiences with Eligos, a Demon whose power is very similar to Herman's in that it focuses around the mind and electricity
Very true, to be honest, Ash would stand a high chance against all of them IMO, that's why I had to limit myself to using him twice. That said, Doctor is thematically a good choice as well.
nice video! i would like to nitpick something though. lore wise, pig's traps are designed to be unwinnable, unlike jigsaw's reverse beartrap. she purposely murders people and doesn't give them a chance to live. if anyone got in her traps, they would not survive. i know we're not seeing any angel traps in dbd, but she's actually very unfair and brutal that i think she would do something to the reverse beartrap to make it so it can't be won. like give people a false hope of trying to unlock it but there isn't a working key anywhere. it cant work like that in-game though but idk haha
Thank you! And great point about her traps. I haven't seen the movies so I'm dependent on viewers like you to fill in the holes in my knowledge, so thank you.
Your take on James is right. Alternatively, as seen in his first boss fight, Pyramid will run away if he gets annoyed long enough. His attacks in game are incredibly slow and I’d pick a dextrous character.
For pinhead, I would have chosen Ash because he had experience with evil and is able to survive pain. He would probably not solve the box but would definitely survive in my opinion.
I agree Ash would be a good choice, I had just used him twice already and since I limited myself to two uses I had to go with someone else. Otherwise I 100% agree.
0:22 Ash and Cheryl surviving against every killer IS an acceptable answer though.
Fair point 😂
As a Cheryl player, I can confirm that I've survived some trials I really shouldn't have
And bill.
And the resident evil cast
You guys are dumb. Ace would be too lucky and would win against everyone
I like how you don't just factor in the Survivors' perks, but their personalities and lore as well. I agree that several of them would be most likely to escape their DLC counterparts. Poor Dwight, though 😭😂
I'm a big lore nerd so I love talking about the lore-implications for something like this. It was interesting how many I went with the DLC pairing on (even some that I had gone the opposite way when I actually did it based on DLC pairing alone 😂) but a lot of times their personality/lore was a good fit. Yeah, poor Dwight, I didn't legitimately pick him for anything did I? 😅😂
Plus Dwight is the second worst survivor in the game

I think your reasoning on all of these is very solid. I would also pose another point in favor of your pick of Feng Min to survive Skull Merchant: we don't need to assume "gamer means tech savvy" for her, because we KNOW she's tech-savvy from her perk, Technician!
And now, here are a couple weird left-field picks, largely based on lore rather than perks...
Huntress: Cheryl or Rebecca. Anna has a soft spot for young girls and Cheryl and Rebecca might look young enough to register as "child" rather than "prey."
Dredge: Kate. I think her "beacon of hope" status could make her genuinely powerful against the amalgamation of human suffering.
You make some really great points here! I hadn't thought about Technician (probably because I never run that perk and forgot about it 😅) so thank you for making my argument even stronger with some solid evidence!
I like your thinking with Cheryl or Rebecca surviving Huntress. They might be a little too old, but also at the same time a plausible theory in my mind.
I think you are spot on with Kate's "beacon of hope" descriptor being a powerful counter to the literal incarnation of evil thoughts. I like your thinking! Thanks for sharing.
Your choice of Kate for Dredge and the reasoning behind it makes complete sense. I’m on board with it!
Idiotic but like fengmins perk technician will just counter skull merchant soo hard skull merchant will give up as her drones will be used against her she will salvage a drone make a tracker and turn other drones against skull merchant so skull merchant would just give up
*Jonah calculating where Blight is going to impact and go next by using math *

But her selfishness may get her killed-
@@A_Random_IRS_B0T_ Nah Yui isn't particularly selfish, she's very competitive but her tome lore proved her to be less selfish. Yun Jin however is pretty selfish.
She's one of my favorites for sure, and I think I regret not including her. I was close on at least one or two.
Adam beats skull merchant by tossing pebbles at the dinky drones
lol that pebble is OP
Awesome video!
On Nemesis, I’d actually argue that Jill stands a worse chance against him then many others because Nemesis would go out of his way to kill her, and leave the others alone, because she’s STARS and it’s just his programming to hunt STARS and anyone who tries to stop him from doing that, so I’d think less altruistic survivors like Yun-Jin or Ada or even Tapp would have a better shot
That actually makes sense.
You make a GREAT point there. Yeah, Jill would have her hands full and as long as the others stayed out of the way Nemi would definitely tunnel Jill.
@@theARoberts Absolutely! Its literally his only goal in his sorry existence. XD
@only right opinion Yes he does but canon wise if any stars members are in the trial and Nemesis sees them he will go after them first no what ifs about it.
love your reasoning on a lot of these. my slightly hilarious reason for why i think david would be best to escape clown is that he's a pub going brit so he's probably very accustomed to dizziness and having his vision blurred while under the influence
I also think Ace would be a good choice for pig. considering his luck in the realm, i could honestly imagine him completely ignoring his head trap until the last second just to get it off first try for the sake of making it a gamble, which would probably really throw amanda off.
I love the reasoning you have for both of these scenarios. I think those are great options too!
Bill would easily beat nemesis, he is very experienced fighting zombies (he would take small ones with just a tree branch) the only disadvantage would be that he would yell "tank!" Whenever he would see the killer
He would have also been a great choice (possibly even better than Jill to be fair since he's not STARS). But yeah 😂I could see him yelling that
I felt so stupid when I learned he was from L4D. I thought he was just a reference to zombie movies.
I completely agree with Feng vs the skull merchant but I think the honor mention should be Yui. She might just know how to repair motorcycles but that means she has experience of repairing and I think she will be an expert in hacking drones. Also the skull merchant is just a M1 killer so I do think any means necessary might be disgusting against her.
I think that's a great point, Yui would have been a good alternative. I'm glad I wasn't far off with Feng as my pick too.
Finally someone who acknowledges that Yun-Jin would stand a chance against Trickster!! She’s clever and determined + she knows Trickster very well, how he thinks, acts and reacts
I think they are quite an even pair overall, but because of her knowing him personally and her tenacity, combined with the fact he no longer has the element of surprise, that definitely gives her an edge
You honestly had me agreeing with all of these. Also, as someone with a boyfriend who knows a lot about the Silent Hill lore James killed his wife because she was sick and wasn't gonna survive anyway. Guess he thought it was better for her to not suffer BUT he's been guilty of killing her ever since and that's how Pyramidhead comes in. Making people suffer the way James does. Kinda sad if you really think about it 😭
Another also, as an Artist main it takes more skill than you think to be able to hit birds just right but I'm so close to mastering her! The fact that you chose Ace, who happens to be a good friend of mine's survivor mains seems fitting to me, even in game play aspect 😂
I'm glad to know that I wasn't way off on these 😅Yeah, James' Silent Hill story is deeply tragic for sure! Silent Hill doesn't shy away from terrible tragedy. And I 100% respect that Artist takes a LOT of skill, hopefully I didn't come across as saying otherwise? I've played her enough myself to know that a skilled Artist main is going to be very powerful. But with you as an Artist main, I'm glad my choice of Ace felt fitting for you 😁
could also see the lyra siblings being very capable against speed killers because of their very on the run get out of trouble kind of lifestyle, especially with oni too because of how their abilities activate through healing and teamwork
That's a great point! I didn't feel like I understand their characters enough yet to have discussed them myself, but I'm glad you brought it up!
I can imagine them just capturing victor and treating him like a little barbie doll
We all know Steve would get out of *Every* situation with those sexy outfits.
lol fair 😂
Pyramid head is actually something that pseudo existed in the normal town before James showed up. Pyramid Heads manifestation is speculated to have been James’ subconscious creating a monster based on a painting of the ancient silent hill executioners in their bulky red hoods, this is found in the historical society of silent hill and parallels pyramid head.
Ah yes, thank you for mentioning that. I do remember hearing/reading that at some point but forgot that detail.
I think Lore wise, Youichi being able to communicate with the dead and his parents being stalwart guardian's of his. When it comes to facing the undead. He has a good chance against alot of the paranormal killers.
Oh I 100% agree, he's one of the more powerful Survivors in the Realm for sure.
Ace is literally so lucky that it radiates to the other survivors. He survives all killers.
I've got to admit he at least stands a chance against them all because of his luck
James also kills pyramid head at one point with the great knife
I thought Pyramid Head kills himself with the great knife? That is after James reconciles with his guilt and no longer needs Pyramid Head...
my answer on all of those: Feng Min and Ada. the girlies would make an excellent team with an elite member of special forces and avid gamer who's actually enjoying her time in the Entity. i bet they'd have a lot of fun too
Those two would be a potent combo for sure! I definitely agree that Feng's attitude towards the Realm would be a major advantage for her and Ada's just awesome all around.
Silent Hill fan here and all you said is absolutely right
Ah good, thank you for confirming!
For pyramid head, it’s actually cannon that THIS pyramid head is tied to Cheryl. Not James.
While James created the idea of pyramid head, the manifestations ties to silent hill stayed even after he wasn’t needed. That is until Cheryl came around with her immense guilt over Harry mason(her adoptive father who she technically killed just for breathing).
Interesting, thank you for sharing. Can you point me to where it says that this is Cheryl's Pyramid Head? I haven't found anything about that in the lore but I also haven't seen everything.
@@theARoberts ok so I’m the dbd lore for Cheryl it says she was plagued by nightmares. In her p3 head, it specifies that the death of Harry mason burdened Cheryl’s mind, making her think it was her fault.
In pyramid heads p3 head piece, it literally states that he haunted Cheryl’s dreams.
Just a tip as an artist Player. If you see the crows fly past you on a gen but they don’t hit you get ready to start running because an artist probably just got killer instinct and they’re going to you.
Thanks, I had totally forgotten this!
I’ve always though Yun Jin was underrated and would absolutely dominate the trickster. The entity was scared of what she would do and she is one of the only survivors that has killer potential
They're both very intelligent and she has some rage on her side too. His main advantage before was she didn't know. Now she knows and could give him a run for his money for sure.
I'm a Yun-Jin main but I think it makes no sense for the entity to be afraid of what she would do. Yes she is a determined and strong woman for sure, but that does not guarantee that she can dominate the Trickster, I think you are underestimating him too much in the same way that many people underestimate Yun-Jin. But she has a big chance of course
11:54 Yun-Jin would start smacking him with her heel and he'd start crying and leave her alone. It's canon I am bhvr as a company
But seriously, I think they would both be an even match because of the same reasons you listed her surviving trickster. They both know how eachother work, and so could work on that to their advantage
Lol 😆 and yeah they're a good match-up because of how well they know each other. Both are very smart.
Man I’ve been watching all of your videos in a row now. They’re so well made. Keep it up 🎉
It means a lot to hear that, thank you! I'm so glad you're enjoying the content!
Nurse, from gameplay perspective, is an easy target for survivor Felix Richer, cus he has perk Built To Last, equipped with strong flashlight with increased duration, Felix would be able to prevent Nurse from blinking for 40+ seconds. I did it myself, results were amazing, she can't do anything but slowly walk.
Interesting, good thought!
😂
Wow, there is a lot of effort and thought in this video. I am definitely subbing.
Thank you for the kind words and support!
Great video. Love the concept. Also if the artists crows miss you but get within a few meters of hitting you, she gets killer instinct of your presence. Js
Thank you! And thanks for bringing that up, I had totally forgot that about the Artist's crows
just recently subscribed - love your videos, your commentary, your opinions! so glad to have found you and ur channel!
It means a lot to hear all that! Thank you for your support
Ash bodies all the killers but especially the Knight. The Knight is very reminiscent of evil dead shit.
The Knight is very parallel with the Evil Dead enemies he's fought, that's true. And you're not wrong on Ash escaping everyone, that's why I had to limit myself to 2 uses of a Survivor otherwise the whole list would have just been Ash and Cheryl.
OK the bloopers at the end are great. Best part of the video 🤣😂
Solid video! I think I pretty much agree.
Thank you! 😂I'm so glad someone actually stayed around for them and enjoyed them 😂I wasn't sure too many would. Glad to know too that I am not alone in my thoughts on these characters either
Besides Mikaela, I can also see Felix surviving the Hag. Since he would have an almost infinite charge of flashlight which would disable the Hag’s traps and making her a basic M1 killer
That's a good point, I agree
Lore Accurate Chris be like:
*Catches Oni's Kanobo and chases Leon with it*
Wait, why would he chase Leon? 😅
@@theARoberts To force him to continue the Redfield bloodline with Claire.
@@Awaifn Oh lol 😂😂I got it now
So in short: If Ash is the best answer, then nobody else stands a chance.
Cheryl is (dbd lore wise) stronger than ash, due to her basically forcing the entity to help her
Well, I wouldn't say this was about who's the only one who could Survive, just who stands the best chance overall. And to that I would say unless I established that limitation for myself, Ash and Cheryl could be said about every character, since in my estimation they are the two strongest Survivors in the Realm (Ash because of his prophecy and Cheryl because of her connection to the Entity)
13:30 I’m pretty sure that your still revealed with killer instinct as long as the dire crows enter within a certain meter range of you when flying by but I’m not 100%
Ahh yes, you are correct. I had totally forgot that detail. Thanks!
Great video! I love your concept for this one. Definitely subscribed.
Thank you! I appreciate the support!
7:00 Bill actually didn't survive the zombie apocalypse he actually dies in L4D1
True, I should have mentioned that, but doesn't he die sacrificing himself for his team? Or am I wrong on that?
@@theARoberts that is how he ends up going out at the end of the game but it doesn't change the fact that he does die it was just on his own terms
These all seem reasonable picks with the arguments you presented. I also like the edition of the bloopers not only in this vid but some of the other ones as well
Thanks man! I'm glad you appreciate the bloopers too 😂 I didn't know how many people would actually stick around long enough for those
Leon for the charging characters look at his quick time events in the games
Valid point for sure. Like Ash and Cheryl, I honestly feel like we could say Leon for most of them too 😂
"The direct counter to hag" not even just lore wise but circle of healing brought hag wayyyyy down.
That's a great point
Two names that didn't pop up but I would say with her medical knowledge and working in a team. You can't tell me that either Rebecca or Claudette could take on Oni. Especially in a team setting, these two have such an extensive knowledge of wounds and how to heal as well as their perks though more so Claudette than Rebecca. I also think Claudette stands a decent chance against Nemesis due to her not being a Star so if there is one Star in the team she is safe until they are dead. But also, I feel like for her loadout, She would have plenty of time to keep not just herself, but everyone else healed up enough to survive.
Also think that If we are keeping all powers from the killers in the game, Then Twins are really powerful with Charlotte's ability to be able to see survivors who are close to Victor if he's left on the ground, so anyone without perks that let them move faster, could be in a lot of trouble.
Some great points here. I didn't really factor in the healing characters, did I? So thank you for bringing that up!
And what you said about Twins makes sense, I honestly haven't played them enough so my in-game knowledge of them is lacking. I appreciate you adding that!
@@theARoberts Absolutely understandable, the first set of survivors were kind of archetypes so I'd have skipped them too. Another thing though is I reckon Claudette would know how many times and where she could get hurt in order to keep going and lose minimal blood or at least still have access to limbs.
DUDE Twins are SCARY! (Mainly because there are like5 of us that play them)
This was a super cool video! (My choice for each killer would just be Leon)
Thank you! 😁 LOL honestly I could have said the same but that's why I had to create rules for myself
For Wesker, it is definitely Chris who would survive the best (He is the one who killed Wesker after all)
Indeed, I agree, but I limited myself to using Legendaries only as honorable mentions.
*Meng Fin would use Lithe and Alert to escape Skull Merchant.*
Very true
Well honestly if a killer and survivor both come together, then they're generally the one's who are most likely to escape and survive. But I do agree with the vid so good job!
Yeah, when they're paired thematically it often made the most sense to me. I appreciate it!
Me a Jake main who always gets cause in trappers traps: 👁️👄👁️
4:43 that makes sense lol every time I play against the doctor as Jake the killer usually has a harder time finding me vs the other survivors
LOL to be fair that would be me too
I'm glad your gameplay can back up my thinking on Doctor😁
these make a lot of sense but i would argue that the "jonah can do puzzles so he could survive pig's trap" thing doesn't really work because amanda's trap in the game is not really a puzzle, the survivors just have to shove their hands in the box, wich i assume is filled with needles or something sharp, so they can find a key and get the trap out
in fact most traps in the saw franchise are not really puzzles that they have to figure out, it's mostly about resilience, they have to do something really painful or unpleasant so they can escape
so jonah would probably work better with pinhead since the lament configuration is actually a puzzle and he could figure it out quicker than anyone, so for who could survive amanda i would say that someone who can take a lot of pain would work better like david, ash or jill
Yeah I'd say either David or Bill survives the Pig best, as they're both very resilient
This all makes sense, you make some great points. I have not seen Saw so I actually did not know the detail about Amanda's traps being unwinnable, thanks!
@@theARoberts yeah it's why Kramer killed her, she was actively going against his vision by misunderstanding it
Ah yes, that makes sense now
I still think they should have added a new game mode when Ash was added that reverses the roles. Ash hunting down 4 of the monsters.
That would be legit awesome
I would go with Claudette for the blight with how they are both focused on botany flower stuff which could possibly counter part of the serum
Interesting thought. If there's anyone in the realm who can compete with the Blight's knowledge it would be Claudette. Not sure how much time she's had to work on a counter to the serum between trials, but it's also something I've never thought about before.
@@theARoberts Yeah maybe not completely counter the serum but use some of her botany knowledge to assist with that area
I disagree with Trickster and Yun-Jin based on one thing: bloodlust. Trickster would probably throw the trial to make sure he finished the job.
Who I would say for sure escapes Ji-Woon though? Leon/Carlos for a stupid reason. They're wearing body armor and his blades aren't razor sharp. Unless he hits them in the face with each one, they'll be fine.
Great point. I like your thinking on Leon and Carlos too. Gameplay-wise it obviously make no difference, but lore-wise they are wearing body armor and that would certainly help.
@@theARoberts I'm not 100% on what his throwable blades are in-game--I know it's been theorized they're fiberglass or even shards of CDs--but they're definitely not getting through armor. That said, you'd still not be happy if they hit your bare skin.
I like this! You give more love to these guys then behavior
Thank you! I really love the characters of this game
it's regrettable that yui didn't make the list, but if we are assuming she has teammates, Yui is more likely to sacrifice herself for others then to let her teammates die for her.
Yeah, I do regret leaving her off since she's one of my favorites, but I also agree, she's going to make sure her team gets out
I think Ada would slam Skull Merchant, we know she's good at hacking in lore as well. She can simply demote the killer of her drones and leave her powerless.
You're spot on there. Though she probably doesn't have her hacking tool, but I still see it as plausible.
Imagine where DBD gets an actual storyline where it is as usual like the game but gets expansion where the Survivors eventually find a way to escape the Entity's realm for good. And some are lucky and there are some that are unlucky. Where the survivors find a literal way to outsmart and counter their killer nemesis. And they might have found the Entity's weakness. And to those survivors who escaped when they return to their universe... I'd picture it like this: Resident Evil survivors: Jill Valentine returned to Raccoon City and it's somewhere in the events of RE3. As if she was gone like a minute, despite her time in the realm was way long. Same with Leon and other RE survivors. Ash? Same thing, the last thing he did in his universe before he was taken, when he went back, he was also surprised like he was gone for only a minute. I kinda think that most survivors who escaped when they returned to their own universes, instead of missing a lot of events, it looks like to their world that despite staying long to the Entity's realm, they didn't stay missing in their own universe. Is it vague? Forgive me if it is.
Not vague at all, I totally see what you're saying and definitely could see that being the case. I've heard some theories of the Entity's realm existing outside of normal time, so depending on that, if so, your thought could be spot on.
@@theARoberts either a storyline game if not, maybe a comic book/graphic novel could work.
@@robybalde5742 There is a movie coming
@@theARoberts perhaps your theories will come true then.
Technically Cheryl can control Pyramid Head so shes kinda broken.
Interesting, where does that info come from? I haven't played SH3 but also hadn't read that anywhere.
There are only 2 silent survivors, one is Ace if i am not mistaken, thaks to that he can hide much better than others. Claudett has good chances since her skin is black and her character skin is dark-red, she simply blends with terrain on most maps, especially with dark buildings.
I actually did not know that Ace was silent.
You made a video “who would survive their DBD counterpart” where it was fan voted, do you think you could do the same concept but with these pairings?
Not a bad idea at all, but it would be tricky to do. RUclips only lets me do up to 4 options on an image poll, so I would have to narrow it down to 4 Survivors first and then let the community vote, which I think would be far less interesting. Non-image community posts don't do nearly as well either. To make it worth doing, I think I'd need to find a way to make sure people could vote for any Survivor.
dope vid concept subbed
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for your support!
I think yui would be my pick for someone like oni or twins but I did see you say in another comment you may regret not including her, other than that I'd say jonah might be good vs the skull merchant for similar reasons as feng min!
I almost went Yui for Oni and I agree she'd be a great one for Twins too. Jonah is also an interesting contender for Skull Merchanf I agree.
As far as i know about the lore behind ph is that he is so strong he stayed in silent hill even after the james incident
Interesting! Do you know where that comes from because I hadn't heard that before (other than the fact that he does show up in later games, but I think PH's creator didn't like that if I understand correctly)
8:50 he has been in the entity’s realm for centuries?
Indeed he has, he was born in 1343. Now, a caveat to that, it's possible that with DBD being multiversal that it's not all on the same timeline. Not sure if the Devs have touched on that elsewhere.
All I'm saying is David was a rugby player and underground street fighter, if that doesn't scream top level athleticism to avoid majority of the killers I don't know what else does. If it was Rugby League he is by far the fittest survivor in the game in terms of cardio. In Rugby league you learn wrestling techniques to both tackle and escape tackles aka peoples holds and grips on you and you are drilled with cardio fitness as you are constantly moving either running back and forth 10 metres whilst making tackles chasing kicks, making runs with the ball, making decoy runs, running to support the ball runner in case they need to offload the ball. You are genuinely moving constantly for 40 minutes then you have a 5 minute break and you go for 40 minutes again. Completely different from any other sport where you can just be standing around (Soccer) or NFL where there is constant breaks in the game over and over, they are what I like to call 30 second athletes, or burst athletes like sprinters (MEG)
That's a really great point. Rugby is no joke! David would definitely have a lot of athleticism as well. So I'd agree for sure. I guess I only used David one other time so I could have gone with him at least one more time as well.
It's like a dream I wish I could fall into and relive that time 😢
I'm so confused, what? 😅
I think Leon has a better chance of escaping Wesker than Ada, especially RE4 Leon.
Why's that? Just curious. I could maybe agree with RE4 Leon, not RE2 Leon though, which canonically is what we have in DBD
14:21 for wesker i'd say ada doesn't really have a great chance of escaping, the main reason she escapes in the RE games is because of her grappling hook which she doesn't have in DBD, chris, sheva and jill are the best survivors to escape wesker, they have fought against a much stronger wesker than dbd wesker and managed to survive, rebecca is an honourable mention as it seems wesker has an affection for her and wouldn't want to kill her, as he only shot to injure her in RE1.
That's fair, and I definitely can see that point. I know that Ada is familiar with how Wesker works which might work in her favor, so I'd still give her a chance. Ultimately it comes down to plot armor for me though 😂
I feel like it's cheating to choose licensed survivors to beat their associated licensed killer. Obviously we already know Jill can beat Nemesis, Laurie can beat Michael Myers, etc.
I understand your point, I did try to avoid it to some degree. That said, it's not necessarily a guarantee they'd win, since they are under different circumstances within the Fog, i.e. Jill has no weapons, etc.
Literally all the resident evil characters would survive against most of these killers
I think they would struggle against the spirit, sadoko and the nurse.
They would stand a good chance at least, but just an example of why I had to set the rules for myself at the start
Honestly I agree with the opinion of Carlos and Jill surviving Nemesis. Because, let's be honest here, all survivors would be trembling in fear if they saw Nemesis. Aside for Haddie and Ash. Those two are used to this. I mean it's a massive mass of meat, bone, and raw fucking power. Before I even knew who Nemesis was, I just looked at him and could tell that he could crush my head in his hand with no problem.
I might throw Cheryl and Bill onto that list as well, they've both certainly faced some similar horrors themselves. You are spot on that Nemesis would instill terror into just about anyone.
Power role got lost the moment a piece of wood comes into the toom
lol yup
I was thinking Tapp & Deathslinger, he's a cop and has been in shoot outs before
Do we know he's been in shootouts before? (I haven't seen the movie so I don't know) Regardless it's an interesting thought.
My boy Dwight getting done dirty... I 100% agree, but still
I know what you mean 😂
Arob back at it again with s tier content
Brittany back at it again with an s tier comment! Thank you!
I'm starting to think I need to buy and play this game after watching all your vids mate 😁😋😉
Honestly, I slept on this game for a long time thinking it was basic and had nothing for me to enjoy, and now, as you can see, I quite like it once I gave it a shot 😂 It's much more in depth than I first realized and I'm loving the lore. All that to say if you're at all interested I'd recommend trying it out. There's frequent sales so you can often find the base game for 50% off. It's also on GamePass if you have that for XBox, that way you could try it out free.
@@theARoberts Will do my friend. Keep those vids coming 👍😉
Just saying its canon now that Laurie beat Myers in a 1v1, sure he was much older and suffering from wounds and infection but she also is a lot older and just got out of a hospital. I could be biased though because Laurie is by far my favorite final girl and survivor.
True, but this is the younger Laurie in DBD. That said, I still always make the argument that the older versions of characters still demonstrate they have the potential to do those things so I still think it's a good point to make.
“ Chris or Sheeva”
Boy
I did it again didn't I?!?! 🤦♂️
About jill trying to kill nemesis, Jill did needed to be saved in the remake because nemesis poisoned her in his second phase and got close killing jill if she didn’t have help from others multiple times so nemesis stands a high chance against jill
All true, I envisioned this as she does have help, another 3 Survivors on the team, possibly even Carlos since he's in the game now, and she doesn't need to kill Nemesis, just escape. That said, honestly Nemesis stands a high chance against most of the roster regardless, he's a beast.
@@theARoberts unless there’s a pool of water bigger than him, then he’s dead
im going to agree somewhat with every decision except for the last one, just because of skepticism. I personally believe that Felix or Yui would actually be better choices as both do have MECHANICAL know how. While this is something that does run off of more tech than just its mechanisms, both would have the mechanical know how to disable them.
I totally see what you are saying. The reason Feng Min takes the win for me, is because she does have a perk called Technician, so that kinda brought her up above the others for me:)
These are all great points and I think those are two excellent alternatives. I was thinking of it more from the tech side, but you're right that even though they are tech based, someone with a knowledge of mechanics would also be able to overcome that.
(this is me 100% being biased because Elodie is the queen of DBD) but I'd say that she'd escape from most killers due to her knowledge of the entity (and having escaped it before), and her ability to avoid and fight the Black Vale
I agree Elodie would stand a better chance than a lot of the roster against most of the Killers, at least the more human ones.
Elodie and the Lyra twins would be an unstoppable comedic trio that I could watch an entire sitcom about
Pinhead you just have to send him back through the box
Yeah, but it takes skill to solve the box, no?
Me: See videos - Click Videos - Skip to Myers part.
Ngl feng min would definitely survive because her perk kinda works the same with skull merchants perk with kicking the pallets and seeing auras
That's a great point! Thanks for mentioning it!
Pinhead was pretty spot on, but similar to Onryo it's incredibly hard to escape him once they're summoned. There's another factor in the movies that could make a difference, and that's Cenobytes willingness to make a deal. My thoughts are that Yun Jin might be a contender if she sold someone else out.
You got the Silent 'Phil" lore right on this, particularly about James. Just as an aside I think Behavior missed an opportunity around James as his own survivor with a unique set of perks that would be 'gilt' based, and totem based. There's a few possible endings in SH2 where perks and lore could come into play. Bad ending, he is overcome with guilt and drives himself into the lake to end it all. This could have been where the entity takes him. You get this when you beat the game and being reckless and unconcerned for your health, which could be a perk for him while being injured. Another ending is harder to get, but he does a silent hill ritual to attempt to revive his wife, but we don't know if it worked. That could be a totem perk of some kind.
Yeah against Pinhead and Sadako, there's no one who's taking them down, Sadako can instant snap necks and Pinhead is a demon that would instantly chain survivors.
I appreciate that extra context on the Cenobites, I would definitely agree then that Yun Jin would stand a chance then. Glad to know I got the lore right on SH 😂And I agree, James would have been a great second Survivor for that chapter. With most of the licensed chapters getting x2 Survivors, it's a little weird they didn't do this for SH
I think Ada has a good chance against wesker cuz Sheknows him and worked under him in RE4 so she knows him But I also think Rebecca may have a chance as well she's a medic and of course combat trained Wesker has also been shown to have feelings for Rebecca back in RE2 so I think it could be possible he would let her go as long as she doesn't piss him off
Yeah, I agree and think that makes Ada the most likely to survive him. I do see your point about Rebecca and I've actually made that same argument in past videos, but someone told me that he actually tries to kill Rebecca at one point? So that changed my mind, but sadly that's one of the few RE games I haven't played so I'm ignorant on that.
Yoichi is peak cuz people forget that he has a lesser yet similar powers to sadako (just like his father but in a stronger way)
Yoichi is definitely one of the strongest Survivors in the realm because of his abilities. I honestly sometimes forget this, but he is the Survivor "equivalent" of Sadako like you said.
Leon. Just Leon
He's another reason I needed to make rules for myself on how much I could mention one Survivor
About Oni it would be hard
You gotta know that the way of using the sword for knights long ago and samurais was really different and he could not know about the japanese use of the katana
And don't even start with the kanabo probably Vittorio hasen't ever seen a weapon like that
Yui maybe could also kinda survive a little while
I almost went with Yui actually, but settled on Vittorio. And that's a great point that fighting a Samurai would be different than fighting a Knight for sure. I honestly don't think anyone is escaping Oni, just that Vittorio has the "best" chance since he has fought with swords before, closer than anyone else on the roster.
well, realistically he probably has seen something like a kanabo. there has definitely been similar weapons to a kanabo in medieval Europe, so it would be safe to assume that unexpected weaponry wouldn't be an issue. but fighting styles would present a challenge, yeah.
@@redninenine_ I was thinking if he saw a tupe of weapon like that but I don't really know to much about weapons in that time period
I know more about Japanese/Chinese weapons
@@theARoberts I was thinking for Nemesis also could Bill
But Nemesis is 10 times dangerous than L4D especial zombies
(I don't know to much about L4D, correct if im wrong)
I feel like a decent amount of knowledge around longswords can translate well for dealing with a katana, the fundamentals of fighting are still similar especially between Kenjutsu and european swordfighting
I feel like all the Resident Evil characters would survive against all the non supernatural killers, not just because I'm a huge fan of Resident Evil but also because they survived a whole lot of things in their games and possible plot armor
I can 100% agree with all this
Id like to point out that Bill is the only character from Left 4 Dead that has canonically died, so no he has not survived a zombie apocalypse. Of 8 playable games across 2 games, only 7 get that distinction.
Source: Left 4 Dead 2: The Passing (a campaign), you meet with the L4D1 characters and during the final stretch you complete an objective. Bill's corpse is laying around.
Yeah, that's a fair point. I shouldn't have said he survived. My thought was more he had survived a descent length of time and then sacrificed himself for his team (otherwise theoretically he could have survived longer, right? I've not actually played L4D so I may be incorrect in my thinking). But either way, what I said wasn't accurate. Thanks!
@@theARoberts
Yeah I assumed as much. He's one of only 8 people (plus one or two NPCs) that actually made it far into the apocalypse.
And it's unclear if he remained as a distraction, or if he wasn't able to run fast enough, or otherwise went on a suicide mission form the start.
Either way, it's not a big deal, it was just an unimportant asterisk that doesn't affect your conclusion.
Jake Peak sweeps 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Not sure he's the best choice in every case, but I did choose Jake for a couple 😁
I certainly think Ash would have a high chance of survival against Doctor. His previous experiences with Eligos, a Demon whose power is very similar to Herman's in that it focuses around the mind and electricity
Very true, to be honest, Ash would stand a high chance against all of them IMO, that's why I had to limit myself to using him twice. That said, Doctor is thematically a good choice as well.
also haddie can sense when danger is coming too!!!
That is a good point
nice video!
i would like to nitpick something though. lore wise, pig's traps are designed to be unwinnable, unlike jigsaw's reverse beartrap. she purposely murders people and doesn't give them a chance to live. if anyone got in her traps, they would not survive. i know we're not seeing any angel traps in dbd, but she's actually very unfair and brutal that i think she would do something to the reverse beartrap to make it so it can't be won. like give people a false hope of trying to unlock it but there isn't a working key anywhere. it cant work like that in-game though but idk haha
Thank you! And great point about her traps. I haven't seen the movies so I'm dependent on viewers like you to fill in the holes in my knowledge, so thank you.
This is the way the movies has to be written! Good angle 🤙🏼
Thank you! I'd love to see some of these scenarios in the movie!
The survivors can fight back because of Weskers Mori
Wesker's, Legions, and one more I'm currently forgetting 😅 great point!
Now that I think about it nurse kinda reminds me of eligos from the evil dead show
Interesting, I haven't seen the show myself, just the old school movies. I'll have to check that out.
@@theARoberts it’s pretty good I recommend it
Your take on James is right. Alternatively, as seen in his first boss fight, Pyramid will run away if he gets annoyed long enough. His attacks in game are incredibly slow and I’d pick a dextrous character.
I appreciate you letting me know. Valid point about a dexterous character being able to stand a good chance
Haddie would stand a good chance against spirit
How so
@@SkillRevelation Maybe Haddie could detect spirit's whereabouts while she's invisible
With her experience hunting and exploring the paranormal I think you are spot on there. Good thought!
That was a strange way to say Feng Min
It’s the correct way of saying it
I recently learned that is the correct way so I've adjusted accordingly
For pinhead, I would have chosen Ash because he had experience with evil and is able to survive pain. He would probably not solve the box but would definitely survive in my opinion.
I agree Ash would be a good choice, I had just used him twice already and since I limited myself to two uses I had to go with someone else. Otherwise I 100% agree.
