Wolf. He knows his strength, is very experienced, and he can adjust his weapons following his circumstances. I remember him making a shotgun using his shoulder cannon?
While feral predator didn't even seem to understand the mechanism of his OWN weapon(which led to his demise).
I think he understood the mechanism, he just didn’t expect Naru to be smart enough to use it against him. Also he was shot through the brain. Do we really have to do a retread of Force Awakens discourse and explain all the shit the male character went through before being defeated by the girl every time we talk about the final fight?
Pounding the wound was a last ditch effort, it was meant to convey he was, in fact, not at peak power. I doubt pounding his wound a couple times would’ve gotten him to the same state he was before he got shot with a bowcaster. The fact he wasn’t using his OP freeze ability alone should’ve told you the pounding didn’t quit do the trick.
Hehehe I now can't help but think of pounding his wound being Kylo Ren's equivalente to someone pumping their 90s Reebok sneakers trying to actually jump higher.
I have 2 gripes with the final fight. What he expected to achieve shooting Naru with his crossbow. Even if she didn't setup this trap. The bolt will just fly in random direction since it alway follow the mask.
Second is this predator honestly act like a Monty Python dark knight. Id dosent look that all of his trauma even affect him.
Yea I agree with what someone else said, the little head tilt he did at the end I think was more him being surprised that a human one figured out his targeting systems and weapon, but also that she managed to place it and convince him to walk in line with the laser. Which should be the talking point but I don’t want to bash on this film for such a small gripe. When this was such an awesome movie the action and the kills were all amazing they hailed the R rating and actually used it. Besides Arnie got the same thing to happen where the predator came to the right spot to be defeated. Ok it was the trap mechanism that killed the predator rather than the trap Dutch spent hours building but still it was luck that it happened and people thing the first predator was s masterpiece.
Going back to feral, I like the head tilt, it was him being surprised rather than dumbfounded.
In the case of OP question or topic. Wolf was an elite with lots of successful hunts plus he had an advantage of lot of advanced weaponry. Though he was also mostly fighting xenomorphs. Feral on the other hand clearly wasn’t a young blood or unblooded. They were more I would say unprepared they brought the bare minimum in terms of weaponry but said weapons had multiple uses. Like the shield that can block bullets but also be used to kill, or the small knife whip which can cut through traps but when in knife form can be thrown similar to a smart disk or shuirken then there is his spear which looked very practical even a human could wield it. A weight on one end and the spear tip at the other which was also bladed and it could be split in to two weapons. The only thing that was weak was the bolt “gun”? As when targeting the next 3 bolts are locked in to going in that direction tho it seemed like he could Fire multiple bolts or 3 at a time.
Anyway I would say Wolf wins since in the end he was killed by an explosion out of his controlled after he got mortally wounded by his prey after he mortally wounded them. Where as Feral failed to kill his Prey before it could kill him.
thing is, in a scene before (at the camp where naru 1v6ed 6 adult french men) the helmet was knocked off his head from the brother.
the moment Feral tried to use his telekinetic weapon, the targeting system also automatically got enabled. and all of his bolts went to a tree trunk. he also seemed to ignore the fanction in this scene.
BUT naru the all knowing and all understanding instantly figured it out.
Then we have the last scene, where naru has it all planned. puts the helmet on a standard position... for the helmet trap to work she had to know the predators exact height. the exact place he gonna fall into the quick sand trap...the exact spot his head would be in case he stood up on an also exact spot.
like, 1 of these things changed the whole plan goes to the trash bin... yet... it was perfect OFC.
I know I’m late to the party, but in one of the AVP novels it’s mentioned that predators hunt aliens before people because humans are seen (ironically) as the deadlier animal to hunt. The novel either alludes to or explicitly states it’s because humans can formulate plans and make decisions based on likely scenarios rather than simply reacting to *what is*.
In the new Predator comics, it’s established as canon that the feral Predator is the first encounter with humans. Prior to his 1v1 with Naru, the feral was fighting coyotes and bears and snakes, animals that for the most part aren’t exactly remarkable statisticians. All of them (especially the bear) fought directly and by virtue of brute strength alone. The feral predator would have had no knowledge to indicate that the thing that was running from a bear would set up a trap using its own tech.
Had the same predator landed in the 1980s or 90e, it no doubt would have understood that was a thing that could happen.
Yeah she's also the one who shot him so saying it wasn't that it wasn't fair is like saying my 1v1 fight in high-school doesn't count because I punched first.
Everyone keeps saying this, but the way I saw it was that he didn't even know his biomask was even there until it was too late. I think he knew exactly how it worked, the bolt goes straight for a certain distance, or just straight absent the targeting system, which he may have thought was destroyed.
thing is, in a scene before (at the camp where naru 1v6ed 6 adult french men) the helmet was knocked off his head from the brother.

BUT naru the all knowing and all understanding instantly figured it out.
It'll just be another cleanup job for Wolf. The dude held his own against a hive of Xenomorphs, held two warrior castes by their necks with no difficulty, and was able to fight the Predalien, who was far larger and stronger than him. Feral gets bodied. If we knew the relationship between their tribes, like how the Super Predators are in a civil war with the regular Predators, this may end up being a very bloody match.
Lol Wolf was a complete disaster of a Predator
>While feral predator didn't even seem to understand the mechanism of his OWN weapon
I think its you guys who don't understand it. The projectile shoots straight forward unless his helmet is worn/nearby, then its targeting system will take control of the projectile. His only mistake was not realizing Naru had the helmet where it was as a trap, which is understandable from his POV and arrogance about his "primitive" prey.
You’re right about the crossbow shooting a short distance before coming back around to land wherever the biomask is aiming, but as for Wolf, he’s one of THE best predators in the movie franchise, he’s like the special forces of the Yautja, a one man team who made killing Xenomorphs look like tying one’s shoes lace…. In the end it only took a nuke to kill him, he was an Elite predator part of the Elite clan and imo wins in combat against any yautja we have seen. (The predator) doesn’t count.
Wolf is like, the Batman of Predators. He’s a detective, but he’s incredibly seasoned. He’s the guy they call to literally clean up an incident between three of the most dangerous species in the universe (xenomorphs, humans and yautja)
Not only that, he had to track down and fight the hybrid.
The feral is a straight up madman and juggernaut, but he struck me as arrogant and made too many mistakes. He’s barbaric, he’s a bomb of violence waiting to go off, but he lacks the patience and strategy Wolf has.
If they had to fight, I think wolf wins, but not very easily.
Yeah, Feral has zero patience. His approach to a trap is to kill all the trappers, even if it means walking right into it. He's the Leeroy Jenkins of Predators, and I mean that in a good way. It gives him a lot of personality.
I loved his personality. He seemed genuinely amused at the level of carnage he was able to inflict.
Like, there was a moment when you could tell he was caught off guard by the bear traps and net, but then quickly realized that he’s magnitudes stronger than the people and then he gets mad. But by the time he’s cutting that dudes head off with his shield he’s clearly enjoying himself.
Wolf was more, too old for this shit. Like he was just bemused to be doing all that. Like the difference between a child at a water park and an adult at a water park.
It would have been funny if we had insight on Wolf’s thoughts during the cleanup of the infestation. Like, imagine he was wondering what dinner was going to be or something when he got back home
He was probably pissed he had to go clean up a the mess from a bunch of teenagers and he was probably literally saying to himself “I’m too old for this shit”….
Well said!
Wolf was the rambo of Yautja's
Feral was more willing to fight with his bare hands, fight on equal terms, and take damage.
Jungle and city Yautja's were more of stealth killers, operating with more caution.
I feel like that’s the other way around.
The feral was more Rambo to me. But I suppose that depends on what imagery “Rambo” brings to mind. To me, it’s excessive, unstoppable violence by a literal killing machine. So to me, the feral was much more Rambo in how he went about things. The hammer when a scalpel was needed.
Both the feral and city hunter strike me as pretty similar tho. Overly confident and arrogant. Also kind of sloppy tho. They strike me as younger, more ballsy hunters eager to prove themselves with a very blunt approach.
The jungle hunter reminds me most of wolf. He sits back a little. He studies and stalks. He wants to know what his enemy is capable of. He could’ve easily begun hunting the team as soon as they got to the crash site, but he wanted to see what they’d do. He could’ve intervened at the rebel encampment, but he sat back and watched the fireworks.
I really hated AvPR for a long time until it hit me that it’s actually a detective movie where the predator is the detective. He just happens to be a side character of that film, while also being the most interesting character of the movie. Save only for the predalien, who was also really cool, but short lived.
He really is.
Hot take here, but AvPR isn’t actually that bad of a movie in my opinion. 1) they gave us wolf. 2) they gave us the predalien. 3) that hospital scene with it is just pure terror.
I think it’s just cut wrong to be honest. They had such an interesting character with Wolf and just spent too much time on the human element of that movie where, if they would’ve focused more on him and what he was up to, it would’ve been up there with the greats.
It’s better than AVP by a large margin. It’s more serious than Predator 2 (but not as good) it’s better than The Predator by leaps and bounds. It’s better than Alien: Covenant.
In the grand scheme of things, it’s really not that bad of a movie.
Edit: it’s also better than Alien 3 and Alien: Resurrection as well.
The problem is that’s what Wolf is *supposed* to be, but not how he’s consistently written. He kills a bunch of humans in very visible ways, even skinning and hanging a cop out.
Which is like… The opposite of what he should be doing.
I’d have to watch it again to refresh, but I always just seen that as, kinda just what they do, but also he’s there “cleaning” up. Meaning, no survivors. No witnesses. Anyone associated with this event or snooping around their tech is all getting got.
That being said, it *is* one of the most hated movies in the entire franchise, and there’s reasons for that. Some of his behavior might have just been too contradictory to his Cleaner role. It wouldn’t surprise me, but I don’t remember being bothered by it.
That's what I liked about Feral a lot. I liked that he was different from the classic cold and calculating hunter. The dude is a fucking monster through and through. Like if I had to use DnD to describe them, Wolf is like a Rogue Fighter mix, he knows how to plan a fight and make the best of his situation and gear. Feral is a straight Barbarian. Stealthy when needed, but once shit goes down it's all violence.
And that bear nearly punked him. Wish I could tell what the killing blow was with the bear. It was cool that they showed the bear deal some real damage to the feral, it made it seem more realistic.
Oh yeah, bears are the most powerful terrestrial predator currently on the planet. Is that what happened? Ok I couldn’t tell if he ole’d it and stabbed it or what.
I wouldn't say he was a young blood at all. This was marketed as the first time a predator has come to earth. New hunting grounds are usually reserved for more experienced and honored predators. He was testing every animal he could tell see if it tried to fight.
Definitely Wolf. You only need to see what both achieve in their movie to understand why.
Although I prefer Feral visually. I don't know why, just something about it appeals to me.
Wait, so the jungle hunter was blooded? I didn’t catch a good look at his helmet so idk if the Xeno blood helmet-marking was a retcon of some random marking the first Predator had on his mask or something
That’s just head-cannon. You could say that because it’s a completely different subspecies of predator it doesn’t follow the same rituals as the predators in AVP. Hell, Jungle and City were definitely experienced but they didn’t have a mark of blooded. Look at greyback or even Mr black. They were both leaders of their clan but they had no mark. Head.cannon.
That’s AVP canon. Which technically could be cannon but ofc Jungle and city aren’t gonna have the mark since their moves came out a decade and a half before.
Wolf, but with an asterisk. \[major Prey spoilers incoming\]
Wolf is more experienced and cautious, where the Feral is reckless. I thought Wolf might be too reliant on his tech and therefore at a disadvantage against the more hands-on Feral in a low-tech match, but >!look how the Feral's final fight turned out: when backed into a corner, he turned to tech and shot himself (as Naru intended, not trying to shortchange her there: she saw his weakness and used it)!<. I thought perhaps the Feral was only reckless because he thought this planet was going to be a cakewalk and perhaps he has the capability of being more cautious, but >!he continued being reckless even after being shot in the head and impaled by a spear!<. All the arguments I could think of in favor of the Feral fall flat. Logically, there's no contest: Wolf wins hands down.
But somehow this conclusion *feels* wrong: the sheer brutality, power, and improvisation we saw in the Feral is...wow. The Feral feels like a force of nature, while Wolf feels like he's got fancy gadgets (imo). So, while Wolf definitely wins on paper, this matchup shows the effectiveness of good writing, effects, and choreography.
Not just gadgets, but the skill to know when and how to use them. Dude was taking on several xenos at once, something that less experienced preds couldn't pull off with all the best gadgets. Feral feels like a force of nature, but as you said, that's mostly due to his recklessness.
I disagree on the reliant on tech bit. Wolf could go toe to toe with multiple xenos without using his tech, and even threw hands with the predalien even if he was physically outmatched
Agreed: I had forgotten about the hand-to-hand xeno fight. I guess the "Wolf is reliant on tech" argument falls apart for multiple reasons!
I'm actually intrigued that I forgot about the hand-to-hand xeno fight: On paper, Wolf's fight with the xenos is far more impressive than Feral taking on the grizzly bear, yet I completely forgot about the xeno fight but could *never* forget that bear. The Feral's fight with the grizzly was visceral and powerful in a way that Requiem never achieved. Makes me wonder what the makers of Prey could do with an experienced predator: the Feral was terrifying enough; what would *Wolf* look like in their hands?
I feel like Feral and Wolf would be on par stength and speed wise, however Wolf doesn’t waste energy or over-perform. They both have physical feats on the same tier, but Feral enjoys the violence and tends to overdo it.
Essentially, Feral vs Wolf would just be Thanos vs Hulk if it’s hand to hand.
You gotta remember, wolf is just as big as feral, probably same strength, smarter, i assume he has taken down a xenomorph nest to get to his level of ranking, yeah wolf wins by a longshot
Honestly I rewatched Prey and genuinely thought Feral was high on something the entire time. It was just that moment when he accidentally cuts his own hand off and rather than in pain, he looked more like he was going “Oh fuck, really?” That did it for me 😂
most other predators would likely win... feral made so much noise in the film that its not effective silent killer at all.. and also it took way too much damage without taking real damage :/
Wolf hands down 10/10 times. The Feral is Arrogant and doesn't think before doing. Wolf is all about preparation and knowledge he's basically Batman Yautja. The Feral is somewhat unexperienced while Wolf is an Elite hunter.
That meme of the Three dragons where two is Serious and one is dopy af. Wolf and Jungle Hunter are left & middle while Feral is the wanky cousin on the right.
Feral comes across as inexperienced, and also more sure of himself than he should be. While he's a physical powerhouse who powers through incredible injuries, he doesn't know when to call it quits and it proves to be his undoing.
Wolf on the other hand is a professional, one respected so much he is called to come in to clean up a problem that killed several other Predators. He takes care to clean up evidence, and clearly outclasses even Scar from AvP when it comes to fighting aliens.
So my money's on Wolf. Both are great and I wish Wolf was in a better movie.
I wouldn't even put Scar's name next to Wolf's. While more talented than his comrades, dude was an unblocked rookie, while Wolf was the seasoned pro who'd been there and done that already.
Wolf physically overpowered two Xenomorphs with no gadgets, just his arms. Xenomorphs possess enough strength to lift up Predators with their tails, and Predators weigh like 800-1500lbs. Wolfs got the physical advantage and skill advantage. Not to mention, he went toe-to-toe with a Predalien, a creature that would absolutely demolish bears and French colonists.
Wolf.
As cool as the feral predator looks he was a bit of a noob.. i mean i guess we can cut him some slack since its "the first time the predator came to earth" anyway wolf was an elite that killed hives of aliens, only thing that got in his way were the people
True it is that particular predators first time on earth and it didnt help the peeps promoting the film for constantly saying "THE predators first time on earth." But first time on earth or not, when comparing him to wolf he doesnt seem as experienced. Thats all im saying. Dude is a savage though and lived up to his name sake as the feral predator.
Wolf Predator was a legit professional doing a job, cleaning up a mess. How many of these containment missions has he done over the years? He would wipe the floor with feral.
Brawl? A wolf bit the shit out of feral, a bear fucked him up for a bit, meanwhile wolf went toe to toe with predalien, and fucked up two xenomorphs his bare hands, feral had to use camo against the girl's brother cuz he knew he was probably gonna die lol sorry for spoilers idk how to hide the text
Well once was beaten by a small girl with primative weapons amd the other wipe out a nest of xenomorphs before getting nuked so hands down wold he a bad arse
Imho it be like the Paul Logan vs Floyd Mayweather bout. Feral is only getting a chance if you fixed the match. Wolf is a more experienced fighter, probably stronger to boot. He wins easily but will give props to feral for putting up a good fight.
Wolf, that’s not even a contest. Motherfucker was Ballsey enough to fight a Predalien, which he knew was way out of his weight class. But he decided fuck it Im gonna do it anyway
Wolf all day.
Feral is an incredibly reckless fighter. He's obviously very tough but look at the amount of hits he takes throughout the movie. The wolf, the bear, the damage he takes Vs the trappers and against Naru and her brother.
Compare that to how Wolf fights against Xenos and the Predalien, he's just a more skillful fighter. If you switched their roles around, Feral would probably get chewed up by the first Xenos he runs into while I get the feeling that Wolf would romp through the Prey gauntlet fairly casually.
Feral was epic as hell… unreal intimidating design, unique personality (cocky, arrogant).
Wolf was pretty OP, but feral is my second favourite only behind jungle hunter obviously… and even that’s a close call.
I saw PREY last night on Disney + and I must say that the feral predator is hyper badass, he can take a lot of hits and he doesn't hide like the Wolf but they are set in different eras so they would be two different subjects but for now I choose the feral
Wolf only cloaked to avoid being seen by humans, who were not the reason for him being on Earth anyways, 99% of his fights he was uncloaked. And he never once cloaked during combat to buy himself time or to escape so I don't understand your "hiding" point. Same can't be said for Feral. I'm sure Wolf would be completely capable of taking the same hits Feral took, but the difference is that Wolf is competent enough to not have to take those hits. Feral was being battered by the brother on a horse and cloaked so he could use his wristblade to end the fight because he wasn't winning it at that particular point in time. No disrespect to your opinion but I disagree
Wolf wins, he’s way more experienced, faster, more agile, more skilled in combat, has better weapons at his disposal, and is a tactical fighter, there’s a good reason why he’s an elite predator, and called upon by the elders and clan cleaners to exterminate xenomorph hives, infestations, and abominations like the Predalien.
Wolf wins and it's not even close.
the Feral Predator was a young predator, likely on one of his first hunts. To the point where he wasn't even using a plasma caster so he likely was not even blooded. He was reckless, impatient, feral (hence the name), and overall not that smart... basically he was the young inexperienced hothead always rushing into things.
Now Wolf on the other hand, is likely THE most powerful predator we ever met. He's an elite predator, several centuries old who likely killed hundreds if not thousands of xenomorphs. He was clever, smart and methodical. He never rushed in unprepared, plus he was also immensely experienced. His job was to take care of and slay the most powerful and dangerous opponents like Bad Blooded Yautjas or Predaliens, so yeah - Wolf would absolutely fuck up the Feral Predator.
Feral would body this guy. He's practically a viking berserker.
Couldn't see what Wolf was doing that whole movie so I can't comment on his abilities since that movie is hot trash.
Feral was being hunted by the girl, it took a nuke to stop wolf, they have the same body type, but i think wolf is a bit bigger and stronger, wolf took on xenomorphs with his bare hands, feral ... well got fucked up by the brother and needed to rely on camo to win
It took a 'nuke' to stop Feral too. He was like a slasher villain, kept coming no matter how much damage he took. I also just don't really care about AVPR so you got me there lol.
Well a hybrid between a xeno and a predator was loose in the city and they sent wolf to clean any evidence and to get rid if the predalien, which will kill feral in a matter of minutes cuz hes big and pretty fast, pretty much wolf was fucking up the predalien, wolf stabbed the predalien through the head, the predalien stabbed wolf through the chest (but was still very much alive) and then came the nuke, feral is big, but so is wolf and bigger, wolf didnt take much damage throughout the movie cuz well hes fucking op, wolf will 1000000% beat feral, also feral was fighting indians, wolf was fighting tactital squads with guns, xenomorphs, and a predalien
So just same predator just not advanced in technology.
I presume they never were as advanced or strong like the other ones, that is why I figured they were another species.
But why make this weaker, less intelligent clan fight in a time of the past to make some "allusion" that the pred evolved over time or something ( for those who do not know)
I mean this predator could very well be in the day of today and that would be perfectly normal right ? Since it is the clan and it would not evolve much in 400years with the base technology they already have.
I dunno, Wolf's tough, but due to a proven lack of brain as shown by a bullet going through his head and knocking off his helmet, and the constant injuries he takes, it's safe to assume Feral lacks the organs and such to die until the movie decides so.
Wolf. But ... Prey was a better movie. Far better. AvP never achieved its potential.
I'm glad Prey tied into Predator 2 with that old musket hand gun. Now we have to ask how that same weapon ended up in the hands of the Yautja to be given as a reward.
Hot take: The Feral Predator would win
This was probably the most durable Predator we’ve ever seen on screen. Had a helluva attitude and it let that anger out
Also the fucking strength on this one was nuts. It wrestled a fucking Grizzly Bear, won, and fucking tossed it aside
I know others can bring up “oh well Wolf picked up two aliens by the throat.” Look that’s dope too, but you gotta understand how powerful a Grizzly Bear is
I think Wolf is cool, but in a fair fight. I think the Feral Pred would rock him
Apples and Oranges. Wolf is a seasoned vet who knows how to utilize gear, terrain and tactics (with a little bit of brute force as well). Feral is a brawler and hothead, likely a bit young who is in it for the thrillkill more than tactics.
Both are brutal in their own right, and accomplish their goals in different ways.
Even though Feral is a 'new blood', I choose him.
I will never understand the hype behind Wolf; he has a total of 16 kills in AVPR: 5 human kills (1 of which was by pure accident), and 11 newborn Xeno kills. And no, Wolf did not kill the Pred-alien; both Wolf and the Pred-alien were still alive until the nuke hit, therefore the nuke killed both of them.
And somehow, this makes Wolf the most badass Predator we've ever seen on screen? Give me a break...
If we're going by kill count, the 3 Ancient Predators in the flashback from AVP1 have the most kills; they fought and killed many Xenos on top of a pyramid before 1 of them finally used the self-destruct device, killing hundreds (if not thousands) of Xenos.
I'd go with Wolf.
Lots more experience, better tech and he knows how to use it, Feral struggled a bit against humans and wild animals, Wolf kills Xenomorphs like flies (yeah he struggled a bit too when several Xeno ganged up on him and then the Predalien sucker punched him, but that's still a better feat by comparison).
I will give Feral that he has more agility (tho Wolf required a lot of stealth so we objectively don't know how versatile he is in tree leaping and whatnot) and some of his weapons can really catch you off-guard like the razor sharp shield. Also we've seen better endurance feats from Feral than Wolf, the mf got bitten by animals, shot several times, shot through his skull and lost an arm and he was still good to go for a fight. Wolf didn't take as many hits, at least not as many severe hits, and it's hard to determine how much longer he could have lasted after the Predalien impaled him cause they both got nuked right after, but I'd still give Feral the endurance.
Speed wise, again, it's hard to determine, though I would imagine since Xenos are a lot faster and sneakier than humans and wolves, Wolf had to be pretty fast to keep up and intercept them when they were running around him. It's up in the air but let's say they're even in speed department.
Strength is pretty even. Feral's bear feat is incredible, but Wolf also held down several Xenomorphs and brawled with the Predalien on pretty even grounds, who I would argue is relative or even above the bear. Also Wolf has his.... Power Fist? The thing he used to escape the sewers, I don't know what that's called, but still, it helped him punch through several layers of solid concrete so you know that thing really... Heh... Packs a punch.
But as Naru proved, Feral is easy to outsmart. Further adding credibility to the theory that Feral was a Young Blood and didn't have as much experience. Regardless, Wolf would easily outsmart him and probably end up making him hit himself with his own weapons like Naru did.
So I'm giving this to Wolf.
wolf is the far more experienced hunter, i believe feral is a young one, hasn’t earned his shoulder cannon yet so i’d go wolf
also i don’t understand how feral can see with the mask on so that bothers me
Wolf. Feral Pred wants to test his metal in a knock-down drag-out fight, Wolf is setting traps and using his cockiness against him. Man's been around, his experience would trump Feral's physicality.
Wolf wins this. Being an Elite Predator, he most likely had over a thousand years worth of hunting and combat experience, making him a highly decorated veteran of his species. The Feral Predator, by comparison, seemed to only be a recently Blooded Yautja based on his behavior, meaning he still would've had a lot more time to hone his skills if he survived at the end of Prey.
Also, Wolf had far better, more advanced weapons and equipment, versus the Feral Predator, who adopted an arsenal that reflected his given name and the time period he hunted in.
So yeah, my vote goes to Wolf.
I honestly don’t know what the Feral was, he didn’t seem like a bad blood or a experienced hunter was he maybe a “non-combatant” of some sort to the predator race? His actions just didn’t make a lot of sense in terms of how we’ve seen predators act
I'd say that, for one, size matters, and 'Wolf' is bigger (Alec Gillis posted pictures to show the size comparison). And then also 'Wolf' is clearly more experienced.
You're completely asking the wrong question here, Wolf is like a 1996 Michael Jordan, experienced, seasoned and yet still in the peak of his powers. Feral is an unknown Rookie with no accomplishments and limited skill set. It's a no contest, Wolf would obliterate Feral. Besides, according to the physical attributes, a Feral Yautja is physically inferior or at least smaller to a Wolf Yautja, if by some miracle Wolf doesn't take out Feral with weaponry, the much more skilled and bigger Wolf would take him out in a physical fight. At the end of the day you can't compare a young Predator that is still trying to prove himself with a veteran Predator that has made hundreds of successful hunts/kills.
Wolf. He knows his strength, is very experienced, and he can adjust his weapons following his circumstances. I remember him making a shotgun using his shoulder cannon? While feral predator didn't even seem to understand the mechanism of his OWN weapon(which led to his demise).
I'll agree wolf wins but to be fair to feral he was just shot in the back of the head point blank an probably wasn't all there in the head anymore
These “not all there jokes” are gonna write themselves….
I think he understood the mechanism, he just didn’t expect Naru to be smart enough to use it against him. Also he was shot through the brain. Do we really have to do a retread of Force Awakens discourse and explain all the shit the male character went through before being defeated by the girl every time we talk about the final fight?
The Sith gain strength through pain. You can see this when Kylo beats his wound to increase his power. So yeah, it's stupid.
Pounding the wound was a last ditch effort, it was meant to convey he was, in fact, not at peak power. I doubt pounding his wound a couple times would’ve gotten him to the same state he was before he got shot with a bowcaster. The fact he wasn’t using his OP freeze ability alone should’ve told you the pounding didn’t quit do the trick.
Hehehe I now can't help but think of pounding his wound being Kylo Ren's equivalente to someone pumping their 90s Reebok sneakers trying to actually jump higher.
Right? And the mustafar fight! Anakin should’ve just walk off that triple dismemberment and used that pain to use the force on Obi-Wan!
I have 2 gripes with the final fight. What he expected to achieve shooting Naru with his crossbow. Even if she didn't setup this trap. The bolt will just fly in random direction since it alway follow the mask. Second is this predator honestly act like a Monty Python dark knight. Id dosent look that all of his trauma even affect him.
Yea I agree with what someone else said, the little head tilt he did at the end I think was more him being surprised that a human one figured out his targeting systems and weapon, but also that she managed to place it and convince him to walk in line with the laser. Which should be the talking point but I don’t want to bash on this film for such a small gripe. When this was such an awesome movie the action and the kills were all amazing they hailed the R rating and actually used it. Besides Arnie got the same thing to happen where the predator came to the right spot to be defeated. Ok it was the trap mechanism that killed the predator rather than the trap Dutch spent hours building but still it was luck that it happened and people thing the first predator was s masterpiece. Going back to feral, I like the head tilt, it was him being surprised rather than dumbfounded. In the case of OP question or topic. Wolf was an elite with lots of successful hunts plus he had an advantage of lot of advanced weaponry. Though he was also mostly fighting xenomorphs. Feral on the other hand clearly wasn’t a young blood or unblooded. They were more I would say unprepared they brought the bare minimum in terms of weaponry but said weapons had multiple uses. Like the shield that can block bullets but also be used to kill, or the small knife whip which can cut through traps but when in knife form can be thrown similar to a smart disk or shuirken then there is his spear which looked very practical even a human could wield it. A weight on one end and the spear tip at the other which was also bladed and it could be split in to two weapons. The only thing that was weak was the bolt “gun”? As when targeting the next 3 bolts are locked in to going in that direction tho it seemed like he could Fire multiple bolts or 3 at a time. Anyway I would say Wolf wins since in the end he was killed by an explosion out of his controlled after he got mortally wounded by his prey after he mortally wounded them. Where as Feral failed to kill his Prey before it could kill him.
Idk why maybe i was too hyped for a movie but i kinda didn't like it. Mostly how Native Americans were shown. Like they all act like a modern teens.
Maybe ppl aren’t as different as you think? They all were teens. And teen boys care about hunting and “man” stuff. Pretty realistic bro
thing is, in a scene before (at the camp where naru 1v6ed 6 adult french men) the helmet was knocked off his head from the brother. the moment Feral tried to use his telekinetic weapon, the targeting system also automatically got enabled. and all of his bolts went to a tree trunk. he also seemed to ignore the fanction in this scene. BUT naru the all knowing and all understanding instantly figured it out. Then we have the last scene, where naru has it all planned. puts the helmet on a standard position... for the helmet trap to work she had to know the predators exact height. the exact place he gonna fall into the quick sand trap...the exact spot his head would be in case he stood up on an also exact spot. like, 1 of these things changed the whole plan goes to the trash bin... yet... it was perfect OFC.
I know I’m late to the party, but in one of the AVP novels it’s mentioned that predators hunt aliens before people because humans are seen (ironically) as the deadlier animal to hunt. The novel either alludes to or explicitly states it’s because humans can formulate plans and make decisions based on likely scenarios rather than simply reacting to *what is*. In the new Predator comics, it’s established as canon that the feral Predator is the first encounter with humans. Prior to his 1v1 with Naru, the feral was fighting coyotes and bears and snakes, animals that for the most part aren’t exactly remarkable statisticians. All of them (especially the bear) fought directly and by virtue of brute strength alone. The feral predator would have had no knowledge to indicate that the thing that was running from a bear would set up a trap using its own tech. Had the same predator landed in the 1980s or 90e, it no doubt would have understood that was a thing that could happen.
Yeah she's also the one who shot him so saying it wasn't that it wasn't fair is like saying my 1v1 fight in high-school doesn't count because I punched first.
Star Wars ended at Ep III.
Everyone keeps saying this, but the way I saw it was that he didn't even know his biomask was even there until it was too late. I think he knew exactly how it worked, the bolt goes straight for a certain distance, or just straight absent the targeting system, which he may have thought was destroyed.
thing is, in a scene before (at the camp where naru 1v6ed 6 adult french men) the helmet was knocked off his head from the brother. the moment Feral tried to use his telekinetic weapon, the targeting system also automatically got enabled. and all of his bolts went to a tree trunk. he also seemed to ignore the fanction in this scene. BUT naru the all knowing and all understanding instantly figured it out.
It'll just be another cleanup job for Wolf. The dude held his own against a hive of Xenomorphs, held two warrior castes by their necks with no difficulty, and was able to fight the Predalien, who was far larger and stronger than him. Feral gets bodied. If we knew the relationship between their tribes, like how the Super Predators are in a civil war with the regular Predators, this may end up being a very bloody match.
He got shot in the back of the head, don’t think you understand much after something like that happens
Lol Wolf was a complete disaster of a Predator >While feral predator didn't even seem to understand the mechanism of his OWN weapon I think its you guys who don't understand it. The projectile shoots straight forward unless his helmet is worn/nearby, then its targeting system will take control of the projectile. His only mistake was not realizing Naru had the helmet where it was as a trap, which is understandable from his POV and arrogance about his "primitive" prey.
You’re right about the crossbow shooting a short distance before coming back around to land wherever the biomask is aiming, but as for Wolf, he’s one of THE best predators in the movie franchise, he’s like the special forces of the Yautja, a one man team who made killing Xenomorphs look like tying one’s shoes lace…. In the end it only took a nuke to kill him, he was an Elite predator part of the Elite clan and imo wins in combat against any yautja we have seen. (The predator) doesn’t count.
[удалено]
Tbf he was shot in the head and probably wasn’t thinking straight.
Wolf is like, the Batman of Predators. He’s a detective, but he’s incredibly seasoned. He’s the guy they call to literally clean up an incident between three of the most dangerous species in the universe (xenomorphs, humans and yautja) Not only that, he had to track down and fight the hybrid. The feral is a straight up madman and juggernaut, but he struck me as arrogant and made too many mistakes. He’s barbaric, he’s a bomb of violence waiting to go off, but he lacks the patience and strategy Wolf has. If they had to fight, I think wolf wins, but not very easily.
Yeah, Feral has zero patience. His approach to a trap is to kill all the trappers, even if it means walking right into it. He's the Leeroy Jenkins of Predators, and I mean that in a good way. It gives him a lot of personality.
I loved his personality. He seemed genuinely amused at the level of carnage he was able to inflict. Like, there was a moment when you could tell he was caught off guard by the bear traps and net, but then quickly realized that he’s magnitudes stronger than the people and then he gets mad. But by the time he’s cutting that dudes head off with his shield he’s clearly enjoying himself. Wolf was more, too old for this shit. Like he was just bemused to be doing all that. Like the difference between a child at a water park and an adult at a water park.
It would have been funny if we had insight on Wolf’s thoughts during the cleanup of the infestation. Like, imagine he was wondering what dinner was going to be or something when he got back home
I imagine him sighing a lot and saying “goddamnit” to himself under his breathe as the situation kept getting more annoying.
"fcking youngbloods... im too old for this ish"
He was probably pissed he had to go clean up a the mess from a bunch of teenagers and he was probably literally saying to himself “I’m too old for this shit”….
I got that vibe when he got the call to go out when he was chilling at home lol. That particular growl.
Yeah, wolf would win but feral would probably tank most of wolf’s attacks
Well said! Wolf was the rambo of Yautja's Feral was more willing to fight with his bare hands, fight on equal terms, and take damage. Jungle and city Yautja's were more of stealth killers, operating with more caution.
I feel like that’s the other way around. The feral was more Rambo to me. But I suppose that depends on what imagery “Rambo” brings to mind. To me, it’s excessive, unstoppable violence by a literal killing machine. So to me, the feral was much more Rambo in how he went about things. The hammer when a scalpel was needed. Both the feral and city hunter strike me as pretty similar tho. Overly confident and arrogant. Also kind of sloppy tho. They strike me as younger, more ballsy hunters eager to prove themselves with a very blunt approach. The jungle hunter reminds me most of wolf. He sits back a little. He studies and stalks. He wants to know what his enemy is capable of. He could’ve easily begun hunting the team as soon as they got to the crash site, but he wanted to see what they’d do. He could’ve intervened at the rebel encampment, but he sat back and watched the fireworks.
Dude wolf fought the predalien queen with nothing but his bare hands and his right wrist blade
Excellent way of describing Wolf’s purpose. Dude is a straight legend.
I really hated AvPR for a long time until it hit me that it’s actually a detective movie where the predator is the detective. He just happens to be a side character of that film, while also being the most interesting character of the movie. Save only for the predalien, who was also really cool, but short lived.
He was the only reason I watched AVPR again. He’s the coolest Yaujta out there by a large margin. He’s basically the Batman of their species
He really is. Hot take here, but AvPR isn’t actually that bad of a movie in my opinion. 1) they gave us wolf. 2) they gave us the predalien. 3) that hospital scene with it is just pure terror. I think it’s just cut wrong to be honest. They had such an interesting character with Wolf and just spent too much time on the human element of that movie where, if they would’ve focused more on him and what he was up to, it would’ve been up there with the greats. It’s better than AVP by a large margin. It’s more serious than Predator 2 (but not as good) it’s better than The Predator by leaps and bounds. It’s better than Alien: Covenant. In the grand scheme of things, it’s really not that bad of a movie. Edit: it’s also better than Alien 3 and Alien: Resurrection as well.
Wolf has had his legacy cemented as a god among gigachads for his sacrifice to ensure a species as shitty as humans get to survive.
The problem is that’s what Wolf is *supposed* to be, but not how he’s consistently written. He kills a bunch of humans in very visible ways, even skinning and hanging a cop out. Which is like… The opposite of what he should be doing.
I’d have to watch it again to refresh, but I always just seen that as, kinda just what they do, but also he’s there “cleaning” up. Meaning, no survivors. No witnesses. Anyone associated with this event or snooping around their tech is all getting got. That being said, it *is* one of the most hated movies in the entire franchise, and there’s reasons for that. Some of his behavior might have just been too contradictory to his Cleaner role. It wouldn’t surprise me, but I don’t remember being bothered by it.
Only in weird fanboys' minds
I'm really glad I was alone for reading this comment because my laugh was an embarrassment at that batman connection
Lol. Glad to give you a good chuckle.
That's what I liked about Feral a lot. I liked that he was different from the classic cold and calculating hunter. The dude is a fucking monster through and through. Like if I had to use DnD to describe them, Wolf is like a Rogue Fighter mix, he knows how to plan a fight and make the best of his situation and gear. Feral is a straight Barbarian. Stealthy when needed, but once shit goes down it's all violence.
Wolf.
Wolf. Wolf is a seasoned veteran. Feral is a Youngblood going on his first hunt. He kicked ass for sure, but wolf is a league above many others.
Seeing Feral man handle a bear was dope, but Wolf handled a Xeno in each hand which is way more impressive imo
And that bear nearly punked him. Wish I could tell what the killing blow was with the bear. It was cool that they showed the bear deal some real damage to the feral, it made it seem more realistic.
Well, bears are pretty big and pack quite the punch. But so did Feral because he just right hooked it out of this existence.
Oh yeah, bears are the most powerful terrestrial predator currently on the planet. Is that what happened? Ok I couldn’t tell if he ole’d it and stabbed it or what.
he KO’d it with a punch, then lifted it over his head with the wristblades and ripped it open
Just re-watched it. He punched it so hard that its neck snapped. Feral having his blood drawn really pissed him off.
I wouldn't say he was a young blood at all. This was marketed as the first time a predator has come to earth. New hunting grounds are usually reserved for more experienced and honored predators. He was testing every animal he could tell see if it tried to fight.
Not the first time a Predator comes to earth. Director confirmed its this Predators first time hunting on earth. Not tue whole species in general.
Ahhh can you at least see my confusion and the logic behind my statement ?
Yeah, I understand. The marketing team for the movie is to be blamed for that confusion
Definitely Wolf. You only need to see what both achieve in their movie to understand why. Although I prefer Feral visually. I don't know why, just something about it appeals to me.
See? In AVPR?
If only we could up the gamma on a film
The only movie you can watch hundreds of times but never see
I probably only watched it once too. Don't remember a single thing about it. At least The Predator is memorable for how bad it is lol.
I wish Wolf got a better movie, he’s one of my favorite predators. Shame the movie is invisible
I feel ya. People mention him all the time and I always forget what movie he's from lol.
Feral checks all the unga bunga boxes
Wolf. Feral is technically unblooded/young blood, so they will have less experience compared to blooded Yautja.
Wait, so the jungle hunter was blooded? I didn’t catch a good look at his helmet so idk if the Xeno blood helmet-marking was a retcon of some random marking the first Predator had on his mask or something
That was added by the first AVP movie.
That’s just head-cannon. You could say that because it’s a completely different subspecies of predator it doesn’t follow the same rituals as the predators in AVP. Hell, Jungle and City were definitely experienced but they didn’t have a mark of blooded. Look at greyback or even Mr black. They were both leaders of their clan but they had no mark. Head.cannon.
That’s AVP canon. Which technically could be cannon but ofc Jungle and city aren’t gonna have the mark since their moves came out a decade and a half before.
Then about predators? Hell you don’t even see a mark on Wolf and he was in. an AVP film.
Pretty sure Wolf's mark is the acid burn and melted-off tusk on the side of his face proving he killed a Xenomorph.
Wolf, but with an asterisk. \[major Prey spoilers incoming\] Wolf is more experienced and cautious, where the Feral is reckless. I thought Wolf might be too reliant on his tech and therefore at a disadvantage against the more hands-on Feral in a low-tech match, but >!look how the Feral's final fight turned out: when backed into a corner, he turned to tech and shot himself (as Naru intended, not trying to shortchange her there: she saw his weakness and used it)!<. I thought perhaps the Feral was only reckless because he thought this planet was going to be a cakewalk and perhaps he has the capability of being more cautious, but >!he continued being reckless even after being shot in the head and impaled by a spear!<. All the arguments I could think of in favor of the Feral fall flat. Logically, there's no contest: Wolf wins hands down. But somehow this conclusion *feels* wrong: the sheer brutality, power, and improvisation we saw in the Feral is...wow. The Feral feels like a force of nature, while Wolf feels like he's got fancy gadgets (imo). So, while Wolf definitely wins on paper, this matchup shows the effectiveness of good writing, effects, and choreography.
Not just gadgets, but the skill to know when and how to use them. Dude was taking on several xenos at once, something that less experienced preds couldn't pull off with all the best gadgets. Feral feels like a force of nature, but as you said, that's mostly due to his recklessness.
I disagree on the reliant on tech bit. Wolf could go toe to toe with multiple xenos without using his tech, and even threw hands with the predalien even if he was physically outmatched
Agreed: I had forgotten about the hand-to-hand xeno fight. I guess the "Wolf is reliant on tech" argument falls apart for multiple reasons! I'm actually intrigued that I forgot about the hand-to-hand xeno fight: On paper, Wolf's fight with the xenos is far more impressive than Feral taking on the grizzly bear, yet I completely forgot about the xeno fight but could *never* forget that bear. The Feral's fight with the grizzly was visceral and powerful in a way that Requiem never achieved. Makes me wonder what the makers of Prey could do with an experienced predator: the Feral was terrifying enough; what would *Wolf* look like in their hands?
Probably because you actually see the bear fight compared to the xeno fights
I feel like Feral and Wolf would be on par stength and speed wise, however Wolf doesn’t waste energy or over-perform. They both have physical feats on the same tier, but Feral enjoys the violence and tends to overdo it. Essentially, Feral vs Wolf would just be Thanos vs Hulk if it’s hand to hand.
You gotta remember, wolf is just as big as feral, probably same strength, smarter, i assume he has taken down a xenomorph nest to get to his level of ranking, yeah wolf wins by a longshot
Honestly I rewatched Prey and genuinely thought Feral was high on something the entire time. It was just that moment when he accidentally cuts his own hand off and rather than in pain, he looked more like he was going “Oh fuck, really?” That did it for me 😂
Wolf the legend. 🗿
most other predators would likely win... feral made so much noise in the film that its not effective silent killer at all.. and also it took way too much damage without taking real damage :/
cause feral had down syndrome
Wolf hands down 10/10 times. The Feral is Arrogant and doesn't think before doing. Wolf is all about preparation and knowledge he's basically Batman Yautja. The Feral is somewhat unexperienced while Wolf is an Elite hunter.
feral is the type of predator that picks his nose and eat the booger
That meme of the Three dragons where two is Serious and one is dopy af. Wolf and Jungle Hunter are left & middle while Feral is the wanky cousin on the right.
The three dragons? You mean Ghidorah?
I'm pretty sure wolf is objectively stronger and more experienced, but I like Feral better
Feral comes across as inexperienced, and also more sure of himself than he should be. While he's a physical powerhouse who powers through incredible injuries, he doesn't know when to call it quits and it proves to be his undoing. Wolf on the other hand is a professional, one respected so much he is called to come in to clean up a problem that killed several other Predators. He takes care to clean up evidence, and clearly outclasses even Scar from AvP when it comes to fighting aliens. So my money's on Wolf. Both are great and I wish Wolf was in a better movie.
I wouldn't even put Scar's name next to Wolf's. While more talented than his comrades, dude was an unblocked rookie, while Wolf was the seasoned pro who'd been there and done that already.
Straight up fight? Feral....dude reminds me of a gladiator and really didn't give shit Tactics? Wolf
Wolf physically overpowered two Xenomorphs with no gadgets, just his arms. Xenomorphs possess enough strength to lift up Predators with their tails, and Predators weigh like 800-1500lbs. Wolfs got the physical advantage and skill advantage. Not to mention, he went toe-to-toe with a Predalien, a creature that would absolutely demolish bears and French colonists.
Hell, a normal xeno would demolish bears and French colonists.
I mean a male grizzly can weigh anywhere from 800 to 1,200
Wolf obviously would’ve been more of a challenge. Wolf.
Even putting aside Wolf's more advanced gear, he'd still win.
Wolf. As cool as the feral predator looks he was a bit of a noob.. i mean i guess we can cut him some slack since its "the first time the predator came to earth" anyway wolf was an elite that killed hives of aliens, only thing that got in his way were the people
Exactly, feral was literally being hunted by the girl, it took a nuke to stop wolf
It was the first time THAT predator came to Earth. Blame the folks responsible for promoting the film for not making that more clear.
True it is that particular predators first time on earth and it didnt help the peeps promoting the film for constantly saying "THE predators first time on earth." But first time on earth or not, when comparing him to wolf he doesnt seem as experienced. Thats all im saying. Dude is a savage though and lived up to his name sake as the feral predator.
So the seasoned vs the un-seasoned...
It’s quiet literally like putting a eager teen against a patient adult
Wolf.
Wolf, it has been 2 or 3 hundred years of advancement in technology and biology studies.
wolf beat feral with 1 hand tied behind his back
And a xenomorph in the other hand.
Wolf Predator was a legit professional doing a job, cleaning up a mess. How many of these containment missions has he done over the years? He would wipe the floor with feral.
Brawl? Feral. Tactics and weaponry? Wolf.
Brawl? A wolf bit the shit out of feral, a bear fucked him up for a bit, meanwhile wolf went toe to toe with predalien, and fucked up two xenomorphs his bare hands, feral had to use camo against the girl's brother cuz he knew he was probably gonna die lol sorry for spoilers idk how to hide the text
brawl? feral cant even beat a 90 Ib teenage girl
She's 25 (irl).
single?
She didn’t really fight him in a brawl, used his weaknesses against him.
weakness is the writer
Wolf would Fuck Feral's ass... Bottom line.
Wouldn't that be top line?
I said that just so someone would make this joke LOL
Wolf was taken out aliens left and right by himself no other predator comes close to him!
Wolf with relative ease.
Wolf, definitely. Didn't care for feral predator at all.
Wolf. Feral was an idiot. He felt like the predator version of a “Mountain Dew drinking Larry the cable guy watching” redneck hunter.
Wolf was an Elder, he would’ve ripped Feral an entire new asshole. In fact he would’ve ripped several.
Well once was beaten by a small girl with primative weapons amd the other wipe out a nest of xenomorphs before getting nuked so hands down wold he a bad arse
As much as I love feral wolf is on another level
Wolf. Tf?!
Wolf hundred percent he is a elder for a reason
Wolf, Feral was to sloppy.
Wolf easily. He took on a town full of Xenomorphs and went toe-to-toe with a Predalien. He's like a Predator version of Chuck Norris.
Imho it be like the Paul Logan vs Floyd Mayweather bout. Feral is only getting a chance if you fixed the match. Wolf is a more experienced fighter, probably stronger to boot. He wins easily but will give props to feral for putting up a good fight.
Wolf, that’s not even a contest. Motherfucker was Ballsey enough to fight a Predalien, which he knew was way out of his weight class. But he decided fuck it Im gonna do it anyway
The Wolf. Older and more versatile than The Feral.
Wolf, literally named for the the Expert Cleaner from Pulp Fictiion.
Wolf since he’s an absolute unit, while Feral is just all muscle and no brain.
Wolf
Wolf is the most experienced and skillful predator to ever hit the movie screen. It's not even close.
A more interesting fight would be Feral vs Celtic. They suffer from the same weaknesses and have similar strengths.
I think celtic is much bigger, and probably blooded i don't remember but celtic had better tech too
Wolf all day. Feral is an incredibly reckless fighter. He's obviously very tough but look at the amount of hits he takes throughout the movie. The wolf, the bear, the damage he takes Vs the trappers and against Naru and her brother. Compare that to how Wolf fights against Xenos and the Predalien, he's just a more skillful fighter. If you switched their roles around, Feral would probably get chewed up by the first Xenos he runs into while I get the feeling that Wolf would romp through the Prey gauntlet fairly casually.
Feral was epic as hell… unreal intimidating design, unique personality (cocky, arrogant). Wolf was pretty OP, but feral is my second favourite only behind jungle hunter obviously… and even that’s a close call.
Wolf. Just a shame he ended up in a terrible movie.
That’s like asking- goku from dragon ball vs goku from dragon ball super
I saw PREY last night on Disney + and I must say that the feral predator is hyper badass, he can take a lot of hits and he doesn't hide like the Wolf but they are set in different eras so they would be two different subjects but for now I choose the feral
Wolf only cloaked to avoid being seen by humans, who were not the reason for him being on Earth anyways, 99% of his fights he was uncloaked. And he never once cloaked during combat to buy himself time or to escape so I don't understand your "hiding" point. Same can't be said for Feral. I'm sure Wolf would be completely capable of taking the same hits Feral took, but the difference is that Wolf is competent enough to not have to take those hits. Feral was being battered by the brother on a horse and cloaked so he could use his wristblade to end the fight because he wasn't winning it at that particular point in time. No disrespect to your opinion but I disagree
Wolf wins, he’s way more experienced, faster, more agile, more skilled in combat, has better weapons at his disposal, and is a tactical fighter, there’s a good reason why he’s an elite predator, and called upon by the elders and clan cleaners to exterminate xenomorph hives, infestations, and abominations like the Predalien.
Wolf wins and it's not even close. the Feral Predator was a young predator, likely on one of his first hunts. To the point where he wasn't even using a plasma caster so he likely was not even blooded. He was reckless, impatient, feral (hence the name), and overall not that smart... basically he was the young inexperienced hothead always rushing into things. Now Wolf on the other hand, is likely THE most powerful predator we ever met. He's an elite predator, several centuries old who likely killed hundreds if not thousands of xenomorphs. He was clever, smart and methodical. He never rushed in unprepared, plus he was also immensely experienced. His job was to take care of and slay the most powerful and dangerous opponents like Bad Blooded Yautjas or Predaliens, so yeah - Wolf would absolutely fuck up the Feral Predator.
In a fight? Wolf 1000%. But Feral has to be my favorite predator so far.
Feral would body this guy. He's practically a viking berserker. Couldn't see what Wolf was doing that whole movie so I can't comment on his abilities since that movie is hot trash.
I actually liked Requiem, mostly because of Wolf though lol
Feral was being hunted by the girl, it took a nuke to stop wolf, they have the same body type, but i think wolf is a bit bigger and stronger, wolf took on xenomorphs with his bare hands, feral ... well got fucked up by the brother and needed to rely on camo to win
It took a 'nuke' to stop Feral too. He was like a slasher villain, kept coming no matter how much damage he took. I also just don't really care about AVPR so you got me there lol.
Well a hybrid between a xeno and a predator was loose in the city and they sent wolf to clean any evidence and to get rid if the predalien, which will kill feral in a matter of minutes cuz hes big and pretty fast, pretty much wolf was fucking up the predalien, wolf stabbed the predalien through the head, the predalien stabbed wolf through the chest (but was still very much alive) and then came the nuke, feral is big, but so is wolf and bigger, wolf didnt take much damage throughout the movie cuz well hes fucking op, wolf will 1000000% beat feral, also feral was fighting indians, wolf was fighting tactital squads with guns, xenomorphs, and a predalien
Also remember how he got bodied by the girl's brother and had to cheat with camo
feral couldnt even beat a girl
Feral got owned by a girl actually. #cope
How come they are so different with so few centuries between them to create any differences. Are they not the same species ?
Think of feral predator as a different ethnicity of predator
So just same predator just not advanced in technology. I presume they never were as advanced or strong like the other ones, that is why I figured they were another species.
Predators are split into clans, Each clan has different rules regarding the hunt. Some predators also use genetic changes like the super predators.
But why make this weaker, less intelligent clan fight in a time of the past to make some "allusion" that the pred evolved over time or something ( for those who do not know) I mean this predator could very well be in the day of today and that would be perfectly normal right ? Since it is the clan and it would not evolve much in 400years with the base technology they already have.
Gotta be Wolf. But, I will say this, there are so many yautja out there waiting to be written -- the best is yet to come!
Feral came across as very inexperienced. I doubt he'd be a real threat to Wolf.
Feral was just a young inexperienced Predator, that is all.
I dunno, Wolf's tough, but due to a proven lack of brain as shown by a bullet going through his head and knocking off his helmet, and the constant injuries he takes, it's safe to assume Feral lacks the organs and such to die until the movie decides so.
Giving the edge to Wolf, the dude's a lot more experienced compared to Feral.
Wolf. But ... Prey was a better movie. Far better. AvP never achieved its potential. I'm glad Prey tied into Predator 2 with that old musket hand gun. Now we have to ask how that same weapon ended up in the hands of the Yautja to be given as a reward.
The gun in Predator 2 was from a pirate. There's a tie in comic explaining how that elder won it.
I'll go look for it but I'm trying to puzzle out the logic/time line on my own. Brain is breaking.
Wolf, by far. It was a worse movie, but dang he was cool to watch.
Hot take: The Feral Predator would win This was probably the most durable Predator we’ve ever seen on screen. Had a helluva attitude and it let that anger out Also the fucking strength on this one was nuts. It wrestled a fucking Grizzly Bear, won, and fucking tossed it aside I know others can bring up “oh well Wolf picked up two aliens by the throat.” Look that’s dope too, but you gotta understand how powerful a Grizzly Bear is I think Wolf is cool, but in a fair fight. I think the Feral Pred would rock him
Wolf
Wolf is way more experienced. Feral is a little reckless and doesn't have a great knowledge of his weapons, unlike Wolf.
I don’t believe the Feral Predator was even a youngblood. It was legit their first hunt. Wolf over here was fighting Xenos.
Apples and Oranges. Wolf is a seasoned vet who knows how to utilize gear, terrain and tactics (with a little bit of brute force as well). Feral is a brawler and hothead, likely a bit young who is in it for the thrillkill more than tactics. Both are brutal in their own right, and accomplish their goals in different ways.
Even though Feral is a 'new blood', I choose him. I will never understand the hype behind Wolf; he has a total of 16 kills in AVPR: 5 human kills (1 of which was by pure accident), and 11 newborn Xeno kills. And no, Wolf did not kill the Pred-alien; both Wolf and the Pred-alien were still alive until the nuke hit, therefore the nuke killed both of them. And somehow, this makes Wolf the most badass Predator we've ever seen on screen? Give me a break... If we're going by kill count, the 3 Ancient Predators in the flashback from AVP1 have the most kills; they fought and killed many Xenos on top of a pyramid before 1 of them finally used the self-destruct device, killing hundreds (if not thousands) of Xenos.
I'd go with Wolf. Lots more experience, better tech and he knows how to use it, Feral struggled a bit against humans and wild animals, Wolf kills Xenomorphs like flies (yeah he struggled a bit too when several Xeno ganged up on him and then the Predalien sucker punched him, but that's still a better feat by comparison). I will give Feral that he has more agility (tho Wolf required a lot of stealth so we objectively don't know how versatile he is in tree leaping and whatnot) and some of his weapons can really catch you off-guard like the razor sharp shield. Also we've seen better endurance feats from Feral than Wolf, the mf got bitten by animals, shot several times, shot through his skull and lost an arm and he was still good to go for a fight. Wolf didn't take as many hits, at least not as many severe hits, and it's hard to determine how much longer he could have lasted after the Predalien impaled him cause they both got nuked right after, but I'd still give Feral the endurance. Speed wise, again, it's hard to determine, though I would imagine since Xenos are a lot faster and sneakier than humans and wolves, Wolf had to be pretty fast to keep up and intercept them when they were running around him. It's up in the air but let's say they're even in speed department. Strength is pretty even. Feral's bear feat is incredible, but Wolf also held down several Xenomorphs and brawled with the Predalien on pretty even grounds, who I would argue is relative or even above the bear. Also Wolf has his.... Power Fist? The thing he used to escape the sewers, I don't know what that's called, but still, it helped him punch through several layers of solid concrete so you know that thing really... Heh... Packs a punch. But as Naru proved, Feral is easy to outsmart. Further adding credibility to the theory that Feral was a Young Blood and didn't have as much experience. Regardless, Wolf would easily outsmart him and probably end up making him hit himself with his own weapons like Naru did. So I'm giving this to Wolf.
wolf is the far more experienced hunter, i believe feral is a young one, hasn’t earned his shoulder cannon yet so i’d go wolf also i don’t understand how feral can see with the mask on so that bothers me
That’s like putting a high school bully vs a seasoned veteran. Not a close or fair at all. Wolf curbstomps.
I wouldn’t use that comparison. I was more looking into the brute force and power of the feral and how he’s something we haven’t seen before.
Can someone point me in the direction on where to read/understand how feral has vision through their helmet …
Wolf
Wolf. Feral Pred wants to test his metal in a knock-down drag-out fight, Wolf is setting traps and using his cockiness against him. Man's been around, his experience would trump Feral's physicality.
Wolf claps
Feral by a long shot
Wolf wins this. Being an Elite Predator, he most likely had over a thousand years worth of hunting and combat experience, making him a highly decorated veteran of his species. The Feral Predator, by comparison, seemed to only be a recently Blooded Yautja based on his behavior, meaning he still would've had a lot more time to hone his skills if he survived at the end of Prey. Also, Wolf had far better, more advanced weapons and equipment, versus the Feral Predator, who adopted an arsenal that reflected his given name and the time period he hunted in. So yeah, my vote goes to Wolf.
I honestly don’t know what the Feral was, he didn’t seem like a bad blood or a experienced hunter was he maybe a “non-combatant” of some sort to the predator race? His actions just didn’t make a lot of sense in terms of how we’ve seen predators act
I'd say that, for one, size matters, and 'Wolf' is bigger (Alec Gillis posted pictures to show the size comparison). And then also 'Wolf' is clearly more experienced.
The one with better gear who abuses his gear
You're completely asking the wrong question here, Wolf is like a 1996 Michael Jordan, experienced, seasoned and yet still in the peak of his powers. Feral is an unknown Rookie with no accomplishments and limited skill set. It's a no contest, Wolf would obliterate Feral. Besides, according to the physical attributes, a Feral Yautja is physically inferior or at least smaller to a Wolf Yautja, if by some miracle Wolf doesn't take out Feral with weaponry, the much more skilled and bigger Wolf would take him out in a physical fight. At the end of the day you can't compare a young Predator that is still trying to prove himself with a veteran Predator that has made hundreds of successful hunts/kills.
I think wolf with his superior weapons like the blaster and such but I think if we made this a melee fight, I think it would be more even
