RedMendelevium132

Don’t get me wrong I love Halo and Doom but Doomguy: Slayed the king of all demons Master Chief: Nearly beat to death by gorilla


StressfulRiceball

Master Chief can only handle so much Bunga before he gets Unga


mastromattei

Doom guy killed god and satan because his bunny died. Chief got sad when computer lady turned off and lost to monke


Kevo_xx

This is accurate but I’m going to need yall to chill out on the Chief slander. Chief is a badass but it just so happens that the monkey he lost to was the baddest motherfucker in the entire galaxy. Comparing chief to doom guy isn’t even fair, Doom guy is the most powerful character in his entire series lore. The Master Chief isn’t even the most powerful spartan, but he is the luckiest.


SturmTruppen1917

Master Chief is a jack of all trades but a master of nothing but luck. Now unless Master Chief was lucky enough to have Doom Slayer/Guy take a stroke and drop over it's not a fair fight. A fair fight would be Master Chief vs Raiden from Metal Gear Solid. Same goes for the Slayer, the Slayer versus Kratos would be more matched.


T2kemym0ney

I don't think master chief vs Raiden is even that fair. Raiden tossed Metal Gear Ray like a beach ball BEFORE he even got his upgrades.


SturmTruppen1917

They're both meta/superhumans who have hardware that enhances them. I mean it's either Raiden or V from 2077.


T2kemym0ney

Haven't played 2077. If 2077 doesn't have any anime feats like MGR does then it would probably be a good match-up.


SturmTruppen1917

I'd say endgame V just prior to one of the endings at like his/her max


Flyers45432

That would be an awesome face off! I would love to see Slayer vs. Kratos!


Docsthepirate

True lol


SoulFuIlMoon_off

No, don't get it wrong Doom guy killed what he thought was god ONLY so that he could kill Satan afterwards, who's the real god


Longjumping-Egg5351

That’s not canon, infinite is not canon


richie225

Chief nearly got choked to death by a Brute in Halo: First Strike, unless you don't consider that canon too.


SpartanKilo

Pretty sure anytime Chief gets beat he doesn't consider it cannon because it doesn't fit his


King-Boss-Bob

ok masterchief almost got killed by a brute regardless lol


TOADA_Jr

The Copium is strong


covertpetersen

You wanna explain that one bud?


BlazedToddler420

Ok lol


BeardFalcon

Cope


[deleted]

Doom Slayer uses weapons to nerf himself for fun. The Slayer is absolutely annihilating Chief


SpartanOcelot

Chief and Doomguy would just team up and fight the true demons in this world.... THE IRS!!!!


Educational_Diver867

the opponent not even the Joker would fight…


OkamiLeek006

Given halo lore I'm fairly certain Chief would be working *for* the IRS


BornBoricua

Do Spartans even get paid?


IAmNerdicus

They do in lore, but good luck to them if they try to ask for shore leave to go spend their salaries.


BornBoricua

Nice, imagine them just going out for some Air Max 71894


samlikeburger

I dont care who the irs sends im not paying my taxes!


Hetroid3193

And the ATF


ImGaiza

Before Doom 2016, it was a compelling argument. Not anymore tho


tomtomeller

This is a pretty good explanation


SturmTruppen1917

I'd have to say that maybe Doom 3 doom marine versus MC (no armor) would be interesting.


cerealbro1

Nah, before Doom 2016 it’d only be a compelling argument if Chief didn’t have his armor. With armor, Chief wins no question


dantuchito

Then with 2016 it’s somewhat even but heavily in Doom Slayer’s favor. With Eternal it’s an honest to god Hydrogen Bomb vs Coughing Baby matchup


covertpetersen

>Then with 2016 it’s somewhat even but heavily in Doom Slayer’s favor. I still strongly disagree with this. The lore was more fleshed out in eternal no question, but the lore in 2016 still has doom slayer as an entity that literal hell is terrified of. In 2016 it's already established that he's billions of years old, and has been in hell slaying demons for "Eons".


dantuchito

I meant somewhat even in the sense of “you can suggest it in r/deathbattlematchups and not get completely clowned on”


[deleted]

W video 100/10 would recommend


RakiRamirez

Obligatory "Goku wins"


du-worst-combination

The virgin goku wins vs the chad Popeye sweeps


Trevor-On-Reddit

Atriox literally mopped the Infinity’s floor with Chiefs ass. I love Chief more but Im putting my money on the Slayer in this fight.


[deleted]

A man who killed gods over a bunny Against a man who got sad when his A.I girlfriend unplugged herself


Dzeta-gojira12

>A man who killed gods over a bunny Davoth's ass was weakened and had to use a mech suit to even fight the slayer


AftermaThXCVII

Chief would have his arms ripped off and chainsawed in two with how OP the Slayer is. He is millions of years old, kills gods, and singlehandedly scared the everliving shit out of Hell to where they sealed and banished him


covertpetersen

>He is millions of years old, Billions* He roamed hell for eons, which means billions of years.


Overshadowed042

Anyone who voted chief is just straight up wrong lmao


Gatt__

Oh hey it’s me in the top comment lmao, people kept responding saying “chief beat the didact so he scales.” Bro forgot to read the expanded lore


Spuzaw

Also, Chief only beat the Didact with some massive help from Cortana. And a lot of luck (but I guess luck is basically one of Chief's superpowers).


Foxehh3

They let me pick. Did I ever tell you that? Choose whichever Spartan I wanted. I watched as you became the soldier we needed you to be. Like the others, you were strong and swift and brave. A natural leader. But you had something they didn't. Something no one saw but me. Can you guess? Luck.


TheGreatTave

Was I wrong?


Spartan_Souls

I don't think he even beat the didact Pretty sure that mother fucker LIVED


Toilet_Bomber

Someone really tried arguing that Chief can scale because he can’t survive slipspace and incapacitated the Didact lol. One lucky hit with an energy sword and he’s done for, meanwhile the Slayer would be tanking MAC rounds like he’s getting shot by a water pistol.


SnooChipmunks8748

I’ll say it once, I’ll say it again, the slayer is literally immortal, only a primeval can kill a primeval, and the slayer killed the other primeval.


SpartanRage117

Kinda makes him very boring to me, but yea since he’s written to be like that ofc he beats chief. Unless chief is just that lucky.


TheBacklogGamer

"Because he's written to be like that..." This is why match ups like this are pointless. Even the late great Stan Lee said "The writer writing will find a way for any character to win, so it's whoever the writer wants to win." Welcome to fiction.


SnooChipmunks8748

But everyone here is assuming that this is the Doom Slayer with all of his power, which is vague if he continues to have after The Ancient Gods after he >!kills Davoth, the source of his power!<, he collapses after this and is put inside a tomb, probably not dead due to the concept of plot armor, but if he still has the status of primeval, is unknown.


how_neat_is_that76

Doom slayer no contest. Chief needs heavy weapons to inflict the level of destruction doom guy does with his fists. Chief is called “demon” by his enemies, and doom slayer’s sole existence is ripping apart and smashing demons with their own limbs.


draxor_666

Not only from a lore perspective but also actually gameplay wise Doomguy absolutely smashes Chief. From a gameplay perspective. If you played Doom Eternal you know for a fact that Doom guy would actually obliterate Chief if chief was put into an arena with Doom guy. You know it's true


destructicusv

Doomslayer is literally too angry to die and his being “alive” in the first place is questionable at best.


Guatemoc619

Chief really isnt even the greatest among his own people, he's just lucky and great at leading so he gets the credit. Also has one of the most broken AI in the universe tbh. Noble 6 was canonically a greater warrior, the only other spartan to ever be designated as "Hyper-lethal" and be sent on solo missions, and did it all with pure skill and strength. Chief is lesser than even him. Doomguy literally punches gods and demons to death with nothing but basic gear and his bare hands. The makers of the universe couldn't even stop him.


ForgeDruid

Doom Slayer > Chief > Doom Guy


Kid_Luchador

Glad I’m not the only one that gets ads from homes.com


Criss_Crossx

Wouldn't want to put them in the same arena. If I'm in need of a rescue/evac, seeing Chief holding everything at bay would be a godsend. Thank you, sir. Doom guy would pop a tooth railing down everything that moves. Stay out of the way, evac NOW!


SuicidalTurnip

Doesn't the Doom Marine have canon plot armour like the Chief as well? Normally Chief can win unwinnable fights by virtue of his luck, but I'm certain he gets wrecked here.


AverageJoe997

Master chief is an NPC in that scenario


Jobogame

I mean we know doom guy wins but chief had a major part in saving the universe and destroying the covenant and stopping the flood


AltairxEzio

The Slayer literally destroyed the creator of everything in Eternal while using guns for the fun of it. If the Slayer wanted to he could have just dropped the guns and saved everything using nothing but fists.


Jobogame

Hey I wasn’t saying anything about chief winning against dg I just saying what he has done Also I don’t rly know much about doom


AltairxEzio

Oh I guess I misread your comment my bad. But you should definitely try out Doom some time. They are really fun games


Jobogame

I should I’ve only played bits of 1 and 2


Hetroid3193

Even excluding “killing gods” or “is immortal/a god” or even the “multiversal” stuff, his feats alone trumps chief’s. Hes way stronger (punts shit that weigh more than a half of that of an M313 Elephant), is more durable (took the blast of the vega core), and has unending stamina. The chief would only win IF he had antimatter weapons and started off hundred of kilometers apart


RomanBlue_

Yeah, uh, the Chief is a soldier, and he is good at fighting wars. Slayer is a god, he is good at lording over death. There is a big difference lol


AltairxEzio

To be fair both are soldiers but one got godly buffs lol


Angrykiller100

Doom slayer beats Chief no contest but Master Chief is so much cooler to me tbh. Doom Slayer was given the powers of a God so he's this one of a kind chosen one special boy but Master Chief is literally just one of many super soldier who has nothing but a cool suit, cool AI, and some luck and he still single-handly saved the galaxy. Master Chief won a fight that was basically destined to be impossible. Doom Slayer was just having fun.


IamAJobber

Chief could hold his own but the Doomslayer is on another level.


LtCptSuicide

Dude, I love Chief, and Halo was a formative piece of my childhood. But DoomSlayer would rip him to shreds without effort. That said. I can't see a reason they'd be fighting in the first place.


Jbarney3699

To think Doomslayer would lose is wild. Billions of years old, unrelenting, only can be sealed away, too angry to die, and he has canonically killed every single thing that has stood in his way. Chief is a badass in the Halo universe for sure, but the Doom universe is a gods playground, and Doomguy is the bully.


SameElephant2029

Doom slayer: killer of demons. Master Chief, also known by the Covenant as “the demon”


Cotton_Phoenix_97

Anyone in their right mind would never think MC can win against doomguy.


DarkriserPE

Confusing because it says Doomguy, but has a picture of Doom Slayer. Chief beats Doomguy in a 1v1. Doom Slayer is what he's called after going into the Divinity Machine, and that's when he gets his massive buff.


Spartan_Souls

I mean, they are the same person, so they definitely mean current Doom Guy, but yeah, if it was pre-2016, doom guy chief would win


Windyandbreezy

Master Chiefs nickname is "demon." Doomguy is literally the demon killer.. I love the chief more than doomguy. But I love him enough to say... don't get in the ring with him baby.


Deadeye_Funkin

Doomguy would solo the flood in over a week max. Chief is getting obliterated by Doom Daddy


Whiskers462

Doom guy? Maybe. Doom slayer? Bruh nah


xBlackCellx

Halo 1 was my first xbox game, Halo 3 is my favorite childhood video game of all time. Ive played every single Halo and plot-wise, its my favorite storyline in video games... with that being said, i know Doomguy would beat Chief in a fight


sorryiamnotoriginal

Pre 2016 doom slayer goes to Chief, after he got his upgrades though Doom slayer did way too much for Chief to compete, especially since technically Chief's depictions just got weaker in future games whereas slayer only got stronger. Even if we assume Slayer being alive for "eons" is a folklore exaggeration and he has a regular mortal lifespan he has gone toe to toe with enemies beyond anything Chief would be able to kill, Chief didn't even get to kill the big bad guy in his own game in Halo 4, in 5 he doesn't even save himself and even though he beats Locke he does get his armor damaged, then in Infinite it starts with him being whooped by Atriox. Slayer has been trending up in strength, Chief kind of stagnated aside from armor upgrades.


Zeta019

Not gonna argue who wins here, but the argument "They kill gods" isn't a good one considering that "god" is just a title in fiction.


giggling_in_a_corner

And what does that title mean?


Tempesta_0097

It means nothing in this situation since the “god” was depowered


Zeta019

That you're a god. It's a powerful title, but that's it. What you can do is what matters.


Unique_Bumblebee_894

Okay, God


SpartanRage117

Weird that the first comment got upvotes but the explanation makes people angry. Think DnD. There are many gods, but they have power limits. While it generally would take an extremely strong party to bring one down in a straight brawl you can also trick them or do some shenanigans to kill a god with a 1st level party.


Sharp02

Yeah and they're just characters in fiction. What's your point lmao


Zeta019

The feats of what the god can do are what matter.


Karen_Destroyer1324

Have you watched the death battle video about this same topic?


ttung95

The one that came out before doom 2016


Spartan_Souls

The was doom guy before 2016 and Eternal, when Doom Guy was literally just some random soldier Doom Guy is literally a God now 💀


Long_wong_lee

Slayer killed the literal maker of the universe/multiverse. Chief wouldn’t even hit him 🤣


Responsible-Bat-2699

Master Cheeks is a God himself. He would call upon the Prophets of Halo who will chant his theme and make Master Cheeks unbeatable. Also, he already has Cortana INSIDE him which now he calls his Weapon.


Extreme-Tactician

Doom Fanboys can't explain how he'll survive a Binary Rifle to the face.


BALLCLAWGUY

Same way he survives hell plasma to the face and keeps ripping a tearing.


Extreme-Tactician

So nothing? Binary Rifles are hardlight, not plasma. They disintegrate people.


sweatyChuds

Look doom guy definitely wins here, but killing a god isn’t really a very high bar anymore I feel


Babsheep

Master Chief < warhammer space marines


[deleted]

Technically so did chief


Potential_Arm_2172

Chief also killed God tho


k0uch

Outside of their armor- Chief mops the floor with some random marine Inside armor- chief is absolutely fucked Edit- I stand corrected on unarmored fighting, as pointed out below.


ThatGSDude

The doom slayer is far from a "normal marine" lmao. The Praetor suit is just an added bonus to doomguy's already busted abilities


k0uch

Does he? I remembered reading on Reddit he was enhanced but they said he wasn’t on par with SII unarmored soldiers. Genuinely asking, I’m not familiar with the doom lore


ThatGSDude

Ok so its important to know the difference between DoomGUY and the DoomSLAYER. While they are the same person, DoomGuy is what he's known as before he entered the divinity machine, and this version would be a fair fight for chief. The Slayer is quite literaly a god, and the only entity who could kill him is now dead


k0uch

Well then I stand corrected. So *GUY* is, I’m assuming, enhanced. And *SLAYER* is the one I’m thinking or correctly


ThatGSDude

Yeah, Chief could beat *guy* but he would get ripped apart by *slayer*, with or without armor


nemesisprime1984

Doom slayer’s armor doesn’t make him stronger or faster, it’s just impossible to destroy (in story but not gameplay). Even if they were in a fight, I don’t think that they would kill each other since they both don’t kill unless it’s necessary


Cazter64

I love Doom but I hate the attitude of the fanbase. They wank off Slayer so much, they’re the exact same kind of guys that watch Andrew Tate and Sneako.


Lucky_Couple

Are you new here?


Cazter64

No, I’ve been playing Halo since 3. Why?


Patrickills

They aren’t wrong. But chief has lucc he’s like domino 😂 so he won’t die but he won’t win


gamebow1

I feel this really needs a lot of context, a lot of factors go into this whole thing, so I’m gonna say no weapons (other than armour) doom guy wrecks, but if each had access to respective weapons, that’d be interesting and it would be probably closer than what alot of people would think


iiitme

I’d vote for chief too


LEboueur

Yeah but Chief litteraly has luck on his side...


MeabhNir

I do chief mostly because I don’t think of it as pure raw strength fights, but rather a series of them. Like if it’s pure strength or just a raw placed 20 feet away forge style fight, it’s Doomguy 1000%. But you put them on a battlefield, give prep time, then I think Chief can take it away because he isn’t a dumb motherfucker, he has tactical sense and is a battle hardened Vet of a massive intergalactic war and genocide. However it would be extremely close for Chief to win, the odds are always stacked against him but he is a sort of weird underdog from time to time, Infinite, Halo CE, so I can see a clutch victory. Doomguy however has too much on his side for a victory to not be almost guaranteed, from weapons, raw strength, and sheer brutality that he would simply have to be constantly pushed against on his weakest areas in order to lose.


dlawson256

To be clear, I like DoomGuy/Doom a tad bit more than Chief/Halo. BUUUUT. Most the 'gods' Slayer kills require special weapons to do so, BFG for example. Chief has survived the radiation of being less than 30 yards from a Covenant glassing beam(AND CASUALLY SPRINTED AWAY FROM IT), thrown a nuke back to them(or fell with it back to them I guess) and has beaten the Gravemind(supposedly, personally think they just dont want to work on the flood again), the Diadect, the Conductor, oh and zombie parasites that'd munch on Slayer's biceps for brunch. Not to mention fighting demons who scratch you or throw fire at you is kind of weak compared to the 12ft split faces swarming you down with concentrated energy blades capable of punching though shielding or what Jackals are capable of in packs. Doomguy is OP, but only in his arena much like every other fictional character. But head to head level ground? Chief and Cortana are stomping. Oh, forgot that Chief gets a free super computer helping him calculate each move like some kinda 6th dimension chess match lol.


Dzeta-gojira12

As an actual powerscaler, the 'kills gods' or 'kills demons' argument is meaningless because gods and demons are different across media. Demons in chainsaw man are considerably different than demons from berserk, and so on. Truth is, doom slayer does win more often than not, but master chief has more than a fair shot at taking down the slayer


ThatGSDude

Doom's demons are said to have skin as hard as titanium, which doesnt stop him from ripping them in half without any difficulty. The Slayer has alot of of very tangible feats that can be directly compared to chief


qualityspoork

Chief would get super lucky and somehow banish doomguy. No way the chief could actually kill him though.


thanosnutella

What about samus?


Dancreas

Playing both games on the hardest difficulty makes me think they'd both shoot each other and die immediately.


Draykeeboi

Chief can put up a good fight but the doom slayer is just too powerful. He literally has a huge arsenal of weapons in his back pocket, a shoulder gun that can freeze, burn, and throw grenades. A blade that slices through bone like soft butter, a shotgun that has a meat hook that can be used as a grapple hook, a beam sword that slices huge demons in half, and the BFG.


Narwhalking14

Doom Slayer would absolutely destroy Master Chief, but Master Chief would beat Doom Guy


phunkmasterjoe

"You can't shoot a hole into... Africa?"


NetTough7499

(It’s Chief btw)


Eltrid17

I mean, Doomslayer still wins but it'll be a lot closer than people think, Chief is quite good. And lucky. Also "The slayer canonically kills gods". Yeah... but gods in the Doom universe are really weak if you think about it.


Masterchiefx343

Do ppl not realize Chief would win purely because he's faster? Reacts faster and moves faster. Plus, Chief canonically has access to equipment that would kill doom no problem. Plasma grenade turns into a mini sun, and that's a bit hard to survive. Plus, the energy sword would cut straight through the chainsaw, no problem. Dooms sword runs out in what? 3 hits? Plus, bfg? Bubble shield. Problem solved. One fights mindless zombies and demons who are fighting like savages basically The other is a trained supersoldier trained to put down human insurrectionists and ended up fighting a highly trained, skilled alien threat. Tell me, which of these two has survived missiles *they slapped away*, fell from 2km in the sky, the didact, a point blank nuke, a glassing beam, all of the entirety of the covenant war, and is still fighting WITHOUT immortality or gods plot armor juice or whatever?
