"Sonic .vs. Mario - Who Would Win?"

In a fight between these two characters, who would win? (Not industry-wise, I mean a REAL fight. We got to have some humour in this forum).

Teams:

Sonic, Knuckles, Tails, Dr. R
Mario, Luigi, Toad, King Koopa

Let The Debate Begin!

Sorry, but Sonic won't be able to out speed this fat plumber. Mario wins hands down.

Let's start with the basics. What can Sonic do? Run and jump. What can Mario do? Run and jump, fly, spit fireballs, become invincible, turn into a frog and swim... in Mario 64, he can go through walls. Heck, in SMB3 on the NES, he can fly forever with power wings.

All Mario would have to do is spin around and shoot fireballs and Sonic would either get hit by them or go so fast that he accidently runs into one (or more, if he can't slow down fast enough to stop himself from hitting fireballs). Heck, he can fly up in the air with his power wings and jump right on Sonic. If Sonic moves out of the way, then Mario would automatically fly back up into the sky before Sonic gets to him.

Also, take into account the backup Mario would have. Luigi, Toad, King Koopa and his goons. Luigi can do the exact same things as Mario, Toad is short and jumps very high, King Koopa can shoot strings of fire at an enemy and he is very powerful. Who does Sonic have? Tails, Knuckles, and Dr. R. Dr. R makes huge robots with nice moves, but all King Koopa, Luigi, and Mario would have to do is shoot fireballs at that weak spot Dr. R keeps putting on his robots. Knuckles jumps up and glides, whoop-dee-doo. And Tails helicopter move is not as good as Mario's and Luigi's.

All in all, Mario's team would win against Sonic's team.

But on the other handÖ

So to explain why Sonic would defeat Mario, I'll say that Sonic too has special abilities. He has a secret ability that turns him into the wild Sonic. He can run, jump, and spin 5 times faster. Not to mention the invincible ability. So they both have special abilities that cancel out the others. Mario is a plumber, and that's it. He's fat, lazy, stubby, and only relies on his powers from special things to help him out.

Putting all special magic aside. Sonic could easily run circles around Mario. Mario can jump high, but Sonic can also. Heck, Mario couldn't even catch Sonic if Sonic choose to run away to heal any wounds. Then Sonic would zip back in a flash, and before Mario could even get his hat back on, Sonic would do his Spin move and tumble right through Mario, forcing Mario to fly painfully through the air. Before Mario can even touch the ground again, Sonic could jump up and slash Mario with his spike things he has on his head/back.

Mario would punch Sonic every now and then when Sonic would start fooling around with him. Freezing momentarily in front of his face and such.

So if you take away the special abilities of the characters, and have them brawl with their bare hands, Sonic would win fists down.

In your opinion, who would win?

eh?

I would predict a no contest. :D

the more popular one would win....lets say sonic.

Neither would win, cos an evil guy is bound to come along as per norm!!!!

Weapons or no weapons it would be a battle of wits.

Sonic moves faster but to do his major spinning attack means spinning on the spot for ages - pretty predictable.

Basically, no matter what Sonic throws at Mario, just a quick jump could dodge it.
It's a case of who'd get tired first but neither one of them get tired... (stupid unrealistic games characters never do...)

Can Sonic surprise Mario or will Mario trick Sonic into impaling himself onto a spike - spannish bull fighting style!

If you put in weapons, Mario can play a bit more offensively as he has something he can hit Sonic with.

Still, if they shell misses Sonic and comes bouncing back into Mario's face...

I would like to bring to the attention of the court that King Koopa is (or at least was) Mario's enemy. So, either discount his royal highness from the pros on mario's side or let sonic include Doctor Robotnic, who is clearly far harder. Also, on the subject of power-ups, Mario's power ups include turtle shells and stars. Sonic's come from computer monitors (although smashing them is clearly a crime) and he gets fire sheilds, invincibility and the like. Also he kicks considerably more backside. :) Sonic it is then.

I think it's more of a question of who would care?

I have always prefered Sonic. The games are much, much faster and more exciting. I like fast games.
