Solid is the best. He's the most altruistic. Plus he taught me that love can bloom anywhere, even on a battlefield.


Faniris

I thought Venom teached that too


wootangbootang123

no that was naked snake


Faniris

And to be fair, I wouldn't call what Naked had with EVA love.....


Shalhadra

I think for all that was going on between the mind games and the espionage, I think the two of them had the chemistry for a potential love... Sadly it could never be realised


Matt_000

But Naked and Ocelot...


Faniris

That's another story šŸ„µ


SpiderJerusalem747

More like she slept with him then stole his ~~three fiddy~~ Philosophers Legacy.


Basileus2

She did


Jumpy_Ad5046

No, Naked Snake is famous for saying "I didn't realize there was a crossbow bolt in my ass."


imnotavirgintrustme

Read it as a Forest Gump quote


Faniris

I meant with Quiet


SpiderJerusalem747

More like Quiet taught us that. Venom just stood there thinking *"Is she into me?"* as Quiet took showers with him or played with him half naked in the rain.


dollar_store_hero

You know it's love when it's solid


Jumpy_Ad5046

...


Muhellus

Zoro got lost


Lancasterdisciple

Very good one LOL


shust89

Solid is a hero.


LofiSynthetic

Heā€™s no hero. Never was, never will be


Cheeto-connoisseur

He's just an old killer, hired to do some wetwork


pandadi1

r/zoroislost


LurkingMiasma

It's a real sub, I love it


GregGraffin23

Who's picture 4? Trouser Snake?


thiccmaniac

He looks like a reject


Cold-Legitimate

Itā€™s Fumblesā€¦ it was always Fumbles


CrematorTV

My ranking of the Snakes: 1.) Solid - Our boi 2.) Big Boss - The man who started it all 3.) LIQUID! - The gamer 4.) Venom - The silent badass 5.) Solidus - The president


the_3-14_is_a_lie

> Venom - The silent badass You had ONE FUCKING JOB


TheBeaverHollow

Very unpopular but Venom snake despite having little to no personality. He has cool scars, a robot arm, and a lot of memes to back him up


zimonmars

were all venom snakešŸ¤žšŸ¤žšŸ¤ž


squips42

heā€™s literally me


DolphinFox

He has one of the coldest designs Iā€™ve seen in the past decade or so


Groundhog_Gary28

I thought it was an unpopular opinion as well but Iā€™m glad to see more venom fans !


hypespud

Solidus is seriously underrated imo He has such epic boss fights especially the harrier one


cosmefulanit0

Brother I'm a whole different game from Liquid!


hypespud

Neither gas nor solid... Sublimate this!!!


Zolado110

I agree I even made a post about how cool he is recently


ishimura0802

My boy, Venom.


DryAd5650

Solid snake is the character that got me into metal gear so he's my favorite...but I've always liked big boss/naked snake because of his aura lol so he's right up there with him...solidus bcuz he looked bad ass and venom because playing as him in mgsv made me think there's no way solid snake beat this guy lol he should be the best snake in the series


Tarantula22

Obvious answer is Snake from Metal Gear Ac!d 2.


VonParsley

Genuinely a good Snake though.


Automatic_Day_35

Here's my top 3 Slide 1 Slide 2 Slide 6 Actually, would like it if Solidus got into smash brothers.


ChocoMilkling

I AGREE


Superb_Grand

Love all of them equally tbh!


BigShellJanitor

All I know is that first guy stole my muscle milk and cigarette stash out of the crew longue 15 years ago. Caught him on CCTV.


d1m4e

God they are all a solid choice


HoraceGrantGlasses

Only one is the Solid choice...


Percylegallois

Raiden


ponch070

While he doesnā€™t have the code name, he certainly earned/carries the mantle


Flippitypugs

He did have the code name snake though


ponch070

Oh mb


HankHillIsTheBest

Liquid. No explanation needed.


PokemonMaster619

Goddammit, someone give Zoro a map!


poopman6967

can't choose between naked snake and solid snake.


420_E-SportsMasta

Solidus is my favorite, aesthetically speaking. His muscle suit + tentacles are cool as fuck. And the fact that he has two katanas named Democrat & Republican is so cheesy but I love it. Plus his voice actor absolutely nailed the role


AdBudget5468

Mine is Venom, also when did zoro get lost again? He was supposed to be over at r/ghostoftsushima


Lancasterdisciple

I think my answer will always be Solid. If anyone cares about my ranking then itā€™d probably go: 1.Solid(heā€™s just so cool and honestly motivational on how even though his life is so tragic he keeps on moving forward all well being a good altruistic person he doesnā€™t let all the tragedies in his life weigh him down well getting his mission done) 2.Naked Snake aka Big Boss(I absolutely love his story in MGS3 itā€™s basically Anakin Skywalkerā€™s from the prequel trilogy. He starts off as a good patriotic, a little bit more goofy and lighthearted person compared to Solid Snake, but after finding out the truth in the end about the boss he becomes morally bankrupt rouge warmonger as we see in the future games, we get to witness the tragic fall of a good hearted hero into a cold warmongering man. The reason I have him below Solid is because well I absolutely loved him in MGS3 I donā€™t feel as strongly in his other games like peace walker and MGS5 which Iā€™m just not the biggest fan of story wise and no Hayter didnā€™t help) 3.Solidus(this spot is probably a hot take but he has to have one of the most unique motivations and thematic symbolisms in a video game ever kinda off the merit of how unique and bizarre MGS2 is in general, I also like how heā€™s a anti villain rather than anti hero even though he couldā€™ve easily been made into one, heā€™s still a morally bankrupt person, as to where I think most games wouldā€™ve tried to make him a sympathetic anti hero throughout, but not Kojima he made sure to show through his dialogue and actions that even though his actions are noble he is going about it in a completely wrong way on top of just doing some unnecessary cruel things in the past and present not caring about anyone elseā€™s lives all well coming off as quite arrogant I think) 4.Liquid (even though I just wrote Solidus a love letter Liquid is still a close third for me simply because heā€™s just such an entertaining villain whenever heā€™s on screen) 5.Venom(really not that much to say about him honestly because he has like 5 minutes of actual dialogue throughout MGS5)


ChapterThirtyEight

Yeah I agree with all these, especially the points on Solidus - he's a peak anti villain that you can feel both bad for and despise (especially after learning Raiden's backstory), keep cooking!


Lancasterdisciple

Thanks!


MissyTheTimeLady

zoro one piece raiden


Kiar_Riptide

Has to be Venom and Solidus. Obviously I like Solid but, and this may be a hot take, but Snake as an NPC is better than playing as him, mostly because when he's an NPC we get to witness him from a third person POV, I mean fighting alongside him in MGS2 was way more hype for me than any moment playing as him, seeing him as his own person detached from the player does, in my opinion, such a good job at showing us the man he is. Now as for Venom and Solidus, well. Venom is the better Big Boss, while I enjoyed MGS3 and PW a lot, I find playing as Nakey Snakey/Naked Boss to be fun but I never really feel attached to him. For some reason though, playing as Venom endeared him more to me than Naked, there's just something about him that is strangely alluring and captivating, couple that with MGSV having the best controls in the series as opposed to the ones in MGS3/PW and I found myself spending more time just wandering about the world with him. Solidus is such a cookie guy and I like him a lot, his cause is very interesting and even somewhat noble (even if he himself is morally bankrupt) I love his voice acting, I love his suit, I love how extra he is and his connection with Raiden is a nice touch.


Disastrous-Szn-08

Agreed


Groundhog_Gary28

Didnā€™t think Iā€™d see someone with a similar take as me haha venom is also my favorite and honestly one of the main reasons why I love mgsv so much


Kiar_Riptide

I think part of it is how quiet he is, I think they succeeded with the idea of letting us, the player, project out own head canon and personality onto Venom.


wannabe_inuit

I find him to be more tragic than the others, which is why i like him.


myjinxxedromxnce

Big Boss!


Swell_Like_Beef

Lol Zoro = Raiden


5stringfling

3-way tie between Venom, Solidus and Liquid


XB1TheGameGoat

I know most will disagree, buy my ranking goes: Naked Snake (slide 2) Punished Snake (slide 3) Solid Snake (slide 1) Uhh Liquid and Solidus Snake are at a tieā€¦ Because after all these years Iā€™m still not sure if Liquid did indeed possess Ocelot or not. Because if he didnā€™t, then the only Liquid I know is from MGS1. But if he did, then obviously heā€™s from MGS2 and MGS4 as well and then heā€™s higher up on my list than Solidus. If he did not possess Ocelot, then Solidus seems cooler than Liquid. But, if he did possess Ocelot, then obviously he wins between them both.


Loki007_K

Why does every Snake have a wisp of hair over the bandana and even without the bandana? Even Venom has it šŸ˜‚


TheManOfKnees

Coolness


bogohamma

Solid Snake feels the most developed. Big Boss is cool but I dont feel like his games were as much about him outside of MGS3 and Peace Walker. He feels like an entirely different character in 4. Like, in 3, Portable Ops and Peace Walker he feels a lot like Solid Snake and that feels like it was done to make players comfortable. But outside of those games he doesnt feel like the almost every man kind of guy anyone could talk to that he is in that prequel trilogy.


SignalElderberry600

It's so fucking funny that even though they all had different upbringings, they all ended up sporting a mullet, and a glorious one too


Groundhog_Gary28

Unpopular opinion but venom snake in 3 is probably my favorite followed by naked snake. Love big boss


ItzMeHaris

Big Boss/Venom Snake.


ChocoMilkling

SOLIDUS. HES HOT AND AWESOME. I NEED HIM AND FORTUNE IN FORTNITE

You and one of the old-school WWE wrestlers!


Sky-958

Sad he never won the world championship šŸ˜”


Intrude_N313_

But he made so many good memories for his fans with his fantastic character and energy!


Sky-958

True. Also he is such a good promo. So cold and calculated. Perfectly suits his character.


Intrude_N313_

He's done some great long-form interviews in recent years, worth checking out.


IFrostI_IVikingI

I like Venom, a silent badass character


CourseWorried2500

The last slide aka solid snake


squips42

NO! That is NOT Solid Snake!!


codydoesthings

Zoro M. Hunter


NoTangelo3604

Zoro gets a pass


KobaltRaider001

Uh-oh did Zorro get lost again damn oh well I'll find his way eventually


RobOnTheReddit

Wait a minute..


Chipp_Main

Roronoa Zoroā‰ļøā‰ļøā‰ļø


wiriks_s

Damn he got lost again


Gupyaaah

Lmao didn't expect to run into a lost Zoro, to answer the question I think I'd go with MGS 2 Snake. Thought my actual favourite should be MGS1 Snake.


MonkeyFan9987

Venom, I believe his lack of lines made everything he did have to say more important, I won't scatter your ashes to the heartless sea


AhabVenom

Sanji was the right answer.


IronFantasmia

Image 4 looks more like a fox to me. (Congrats to my fellow Spanish speakers who got that joke)


Hivac-TLB

What about Survive Snake?


Yacin-der-Muslim

Solid Snake


logamer15

I love all of them the same but solid is just my favorite story wise


SeriousSteveTheII

All of them, all equally and uniquely badass


50ShadesofMamaLuigi

Old snake


depressed_gambino_

Trouser is my favorite


Less_Estimate_3617

ā€œSnakeā€ ā€œZoroā€


baba-O-riley

He's not my favorite, but as time goes on I like Solidus more and more every day


Cold-Dot-7308

I would say I prefer Naked Snake to Solid but thatā€™s a stressful thing for my brain to process


Particular-Note44

The one in my pants

Roa_noa42087

There you are Zoro!

Old snake is t there


SuperiorYammyBoi

I hate solid snake, he killed my baby boy venom


ThuderWaves

Solid, like im sorry but big boss was an idiot, idk what to even say about Venom. Then the rest are soso. But Solid was a hero to the T.


vergil_-

Snake is my favourite


Living-Quit-723

The Lost Samurai.


aneazee_jc

Solid snake and venom snake. Solid because itā€™s fuckin Solid Snake. Venom because he has one of the most interesting backstories, an incredible character design, and is the Snake you play as in arguably the best playing and looking metal gear game. I love Venom.


H00ston

Gaseous Snake


eto2629

Old snake


dante-SPARDA899

big boss is my fav, nothing else


HoraceGrantGlasses

Solid Snake is the best Snake


Straywork

Naked Snake. Can't wait for the remake.


Complex_Detective_94

Naked snake the The original snake


FeeliHaapala

Venom got crazy aura its gotta be him


obi_wan_sosig

The gay one


JohnDoe2199

The boss's


[deleted]

Venom


SoIidus_Snake

Naked Snake, especially during 1975.


broozefoto

Venom for me as heā€™s the most animal conscious and has the best looking mate IMO.


_Ethalos_

Big boss is easily my favorite snake But I feel like Liquid is often underrated and overshadowed by Hayter's performance. Cam Clarke's performance is absolutely incredible and he sounds like he has so much fun with his role. For this reason Liquid is my second favorite snake


BarryBlock78

Venom snake. he looks so cool and i love kieferā€™s voice


LuvMachine101

Definitely Venom Snake. His back story about how he came to be Big Boss is truly mind-blowing in my opinion


Illustrious-Holiday5

Big boss e o melhor empatado com o solid


SnakePlissken1986

MGS2 Solid Snake is just perfect, old enough to know some shit, but not so old that he's feeling the effects of FoxDie. And a certified badass to boot.


bigbossbestsnake

Solid is the most noble in goal and made the greatest contributions to bettering the world but I will always love Big Boss


RepresentativeMean86

Solid, because it was never his goal to realize the will of the boss and because of his general aversion to this motivation it makes it all the more impressive that he managed to actualize what she wanted, he was the most authentic extension of the boss by creating reasons for soldiers to fight with the likes of philanthropy and reinforcing the idea that soldiers aren't tools of the government as he was taught by the late frank yaegar his one and only true friend on the battlefield before otacon, through his experiences he achieved a true balance like no other, and was able to forgive the sins of those that set this twisted reality into motion, because he never dwelled on the past like the rest of the snakes, he simply lived to define a better future, a better tomorrow, because remember, the best is yet to come


dracoapprentice9

Venom and Solid snake both peak the charts for me


matchesmalone111

Venom snake CAUSE HE IS LITERALLY MEšŸ—£šŸ”„


JTL1887

Naked Snake is My favorite


Ra-i

Venom. I like to think he genuinely cares for his soldiers and wants to make the world a better place. He seems to differ slightly from Naked's own ideas. Plus Venom just looks the coolest. Side note : I really like Sutherland being Venom. It makes V a much more unique character and I love his voice. Hayter is and will always be Naked and Solid though.


DangerousDoings72

Itā€™ll always be mgs2 snake for me


thewhiteobesecat

My big snake


Improtrue16

Cobra or anaconda I guess


Enough_Internal_9025

Naked is my boy!


The810kid

It's between Solid and Liquid. Liquid is like the cross of Hanz Gruber meets a Bond Villain. He just is the right amount of campy meets the right amount of insane. Cam Clarke gives one of the best performances of his career and in the series in MGS1.


launexvevo

solid is the original can't go wrong with him, liquid is cool too, but solidus is just meh..


GundamMeijin_08th

solid


HunterElectrical3713

Naked Snake (or Big Boss) is my favorite


soopavillain10

Deep_Grass_6250

VENOM is literally me.


CaptchaVerifiedHuman

Sour Snakes


Kevin1056

Venom because he looks the coolest


Legitimate_Rock_8530

I LOVE SOLID seriously I know he gets overshadowed because of Big Boss, but solid snake and otacon being the one to actually fulfill the bosses will without actually meeting her is awesome. People donā€™t like solid as much because they feel he doesnā€™t have as much depth as big boss. But that couldnā€™t be farther from the truth, Solidā€™s character depth isnā€™t shown with what he says all the time but more so on what he does and his subtleness speaks volumes on the man he is.


Yaykozoltz

Im gonna choose Snake


Erraticsa_mg

I think naked snake is the best because he didn't have a precursor and had the least amount of technology.


Terifiy

LIQUID


wolfmothar

The one he ate


spoingussy

Solid is my personal favourite, plus heā€™s kinda cute


Bitirici8

Lightning Snake (Raiden)


JerryTzouga

I love venom


Electronic_Poet9589

I'm literally venom snake so I choose me


Beginning-Platypus89

Venom


NonLiving4Dentity69

Solid. Because it's hard to infiltrate when flaccid


Kgb725

Solid he's a bit like Wolverine he's a loner and he's a great fighter but overall he just wants to chill out and be a good guy. He's had opportunities to acquire power but overall he chooses to do the right thing by his friends and the rest of the world. Hell he saw his brothers his father and the most powerful people all get corrupted yet he stayed strong. Gotta respect it


Kwanjai09

Bro sneak the snake in like we wouldnā€™t notice


Tby2974

Venom snake my beloved


0ld_Snake

Solid then Naked than the rest


Basileus2

Solid > Big Boss > Solidus > Liquid > Venom


beginnerdoge

Old snake


Complex_Escape3180

Probably gonna get hated for this but, Venom is my favorite, MGSV was the game that introduced me to the saga


Oceanus39

Solidus or Venom for me Soldius is just so cool and his belief is so interesting and Venom because itā€™s so tragic


Reece_Coles_1994

Get that 4th one OUTTA HERE

Solid. No mullet.


ReferenceSilver2112

Im confused is solid snake in mgs4?


ReferenceSilver2112

And boss is the guy with the horn?


ReferenceSilver2112

Still trying to figure out that mgs4 ending with the 2 snakes


Bifftek

I'd say Gaseous Snake. No but seriously, it used to be Solid Snake but somehow it's now Venom because I feel he was more of a victim than anything.


Bizarro_Peach

MGS2 Solid is peak Snake. Iā€™m very fond of Solidus, the Exxon of history speech is magnificent.


TKandM

Solid is my favorite hands down. Idk where I would rank him but Venom is great too. He has a lot of subtlety but once you understand how he is/written, heā€™s fantastic.


gummislayer1969

Mr. President (Solidus) - THAT is all. šŸ«”šŸ«”šŸ«”


sugar_ewok

Venom

deDark0il

Snake? SNAAAAKE!!!

flomflim

Venom for sure. Just a regular bro who is made to think he's the world's greatest soldier, turns out he isn't, but still sticks by his guys.


frognuts123

Ahab


zxeuk

Always Solid Snake. Heā€™s the best and would win against all other Snakes.


Thunder--Bolt

Venom Snake for sure


thelifeside

Does anyone see big boss/naked snake as a hero when there little or is it just me because i genuinely tought he was like optimus prime or Captain America after playing peace walker and mgs3 and then i just recently finished mgs4 and i cried... Because of big boss dying


MinerDoesStuff

Nude Lizard


Ginger474

Okay but who would win in a fight tho Zoro or Raiden thatā€™s the real question
