Who Would Survive Their DBD Counterpart? | Community Video 

Hey all, thanks for all the support on this video! It's been incredible. Real quick, two corrections I want to make that I got wrong in this one: 1. Nea should have been paired with Nurse since they are in the same DLC. Oops 😅😅messed that one up! Honestly not sure how I did that 😅😅 2. I said Onryo's chapter was based on the book, it was actually based on the original Ringu movie, I got that flipped in my head and misspoke.

Lore wise, Bill does not survive against killers The killers survive against Bill

Ash doesn't escape Ghostface....... HE KILLS GHOSTFACE😎

Unironically, Yun-Jin would absolutely escape Trickster. She's knows how to take care of herself and make sure she survives, and she's definitely much smarter than Trickster is, as he only gets away with murder because of his status, and Yun-Jin had him more or less figured out despite it Trickster has only ever killed people he's taken by surprise and haven't been able to fight back, in a scenario where his potential victim is aware of him and can fight back I genuinely think he would struggle to actually kill them

15:20 I get you thinking Wesker may let Rebecca go because he has a picture of her in his office, but in RE1 in Chris' story, Wesker straight up shoots Rebecca after she and Chris figure out he's working for Umbrella. He legit would've killed her if Chris didn't save her and he actually DOES kill her in the non-canon ending where Chris doesn't save her.

Nea v the Nurse* Meg v the Hillbilly* Dwight and Claudette v the Trapper* Jake v The Wraith*

Okay as much as I love Pinhead, remember the weakness to Cenobites is Magic. Mikaela is a witch. She has been known to do magic before she was taken and her perks are all witch based. So she would have the best chance out of all the survivors, minus maybe Vittorio, to survive the Pinhead.

I think Ada would figure out someway to trick Wesker into believing she's dead or trick him, if there's one thing that can be counted on with Wesker is his sheer arrogance and being sure of himself.

Chris and Sheva pull out rocket launchers from the lockers. Wesker starts to sweat

Claudette doesn't go with Nurse, Nea does?

I wish you'd done a Chris vs. Wesker poll. It'd be interesting to see how the community would react.

From what I can gather from fan theories and speculations, Dwight is the counterpart to Wraith. Hillbilly is the counterpart to Meg. The unnamed killer who came before Trapper and was sent to the Void by the Entity was the counterpart to Claudette. And Trapper is the counterpart to Jake.

Nemesis wouldn’t even try against Leon, he’d be to busy trying to find Jill

Ash won’t just escape Ghostface, he will just humiliate ghost face all day long and take pics

As a Pyramid Head main I never strike anyone who's Cheryl intentionally if I go for someone and she steps in my way I just stop and look down at her calmly turn around and find someone else to punish lol

"Ash is like Ace but with previous experience" you forgot to mention that Ace is the Mr Bean of DbD

To say it, the Sadako Rising chapter is based on the original Japanese movie, Ringu (1998), with some inspiration taken from the book, Ring (1991). Yôichi, in it of himself, proves it since, in the book, he's a girl. There's also stuff like Yôichi's lore mentioning both his parents and the book not having his mom as a main character, but you get the point. Big recommend on Ringu, by the way. It's really suspenseful and eerie, and makes for a pretty important watch in considering its starting the J-horror craze of the early 2000's.

Given that cheryl is essentially a survivor with killer perks (gen block, obsession and hex perk), thats like fighting fire with fire! She defs stands a chance!

I do think Haddie could have a decent chance against Dredge, I’m pretty sure she does a lot of paranormal investigating stuff and has gone against monsters before (unless I’m mistaken)

the funniest part about ash is his plot armor is CANON, like written in the necronomicon, i mean they basically just state “yeah man main character has plot armor deal with it”

Technically speaking, Pyramid Head serves as a physical representation of the powers of Silent Hill enacting its punishment on James, so while Pyramid Head proper would never run into Cheryl, "Cheryl vs Pyramid Head" can also arguably be interpreted as "Cheryl vs Silent Hill in general" (which Cheryl still wins, because, well, SH3)

Few ramblings on several pairs x) 3:50 I believe in-game lore states that Quen was taken quite some time after the events of remake movie (when Nancy's mom is dead and Nancy isn't around for whatever reason). So by that point he's beaten Freddy in the "dream game" a lot of times already. And with DbD's Freddy being much weaker power-wise than his movie-self - it feels like Quentin has a huge chance of winning. Especially if requirement is to escape Freddy, rather than kill him. 4:19 Amanda and Tapp don't really interact in movies at all, but both have 1v1 fights (albeit with different characters). Tapp loses his fight because of opponent's hax (twice actually), while Amanda comes out victorious (even though barely and her opponent had broken leg). Based on this, I'd give an edge to Mandy - she is more agile, quite resilient and willing to fight dirty. Besides, she has a blade and Tapp has only his hands. 13:59 This is a tricky one, because survivor-Haddie we get to play as is not the same character as tome-Haddie. Haddie from Archives would absolutely obliterate Dredge into oblivion, as she does with many creatures in Tomes. Survivor-Haddie isn't quite there in terms of experience, but if her adventures were broadly the same as tome-Haddie's prior to Alps - I'd say she still has an upper hand in at least escaping Dredge, if not full-on defeating him. 14:05 I actually feel like if the goal for survivor is to escape and killer - to kill, then Ada might win this one, given Ada's huge experience in yeeting herself out of tough situations and her overall knowledge of how Wesker might think (their business partnership lasts many years after all, as iirc DbD's Ada is taken during RE4). In actual fight, though, Wong will stand zero chance against Wesker, especially w/o her devices - it took a whole active volcano and two RLs to get this guy after all lol. As for Rebecca - I feel like she'll get killed either way unless Wesker decides to make her his pet - but even then she won't necessarily escape. Especially if we take her RE0-self, when she doesn't have lots of battle experience. Granted, she knows how to handle a gun, but there aren't any guns in Entity's Realm, and even if there were - Wesker literally can dodge any projectiles easily.

For legion vs Jeff, there are only 2 scenarios and no, the legion(2 of them at least) won't hesitate killing Jeff even if they were acquainted at one point. So that leaves us with 2 scenarios a 1v1 and a 4v1. If it were a 1v1, Jeff would win based on his build againts individual members of the legion. Sadly if it were a 4v1 yeah, my guy is ded af.

I’m kinda surprised Tapp beat Pig, yes he survived a slash to the throat with the same blade Pig uses, he did end up getting killed by Zepp so idk if he’d survive against Amanda.

Amanda would easily beat tap if we're going off the movies

If you put Chris against all the killers in the game. He would beat like half of them just by punching

Ash's luck and ability to fight and in Evil Dead lore he's the chosen one so I think he is leagues above most of the killers in the game in my opinion and to put him up against a guy who idolizes horror movies a bit too much is really funny

Ash would eat Ghostie for breakfast,but im not sure about Steve and Demo,Season 1 Demo=Steve wins,Season 4 Demo=Demo wins

One thing that should be noted is the different layouts of the entitys realm. Depending on where the 1v1 happens, there could be more or less hiding spots for the survivors. Anyway this was another entertaining video even for a non DBD player. Love to see what other lore videos you are going to do next.

I think everyone is forgetting that Nancy fought against the demogorgon and the rest of the monsters more times than Steve did

I personally would have paired Mikaela and Ghost Face together, since they both have a little bit of power in the entity's realm, and instead put Ash against The Cenobite since their demon like behavior/relation isn't too far away from deadite nonsense. But I loved the video, good work.

Tbh I think Nancy has a better chance of escaping demo than Steve. In S1 Nancy is the only person who went to the upside down, faced Demogorgon and survived (well besides Will but he got captured and mindfucked by the hive) She's also more experienced than Steve about Demogorgon. I think while Nancy would try to stay quiet to escape Steve would just try to attack demo with a branch and die

Oh wow !! the number of subs you have is definitely less than what your content and personality deserves. your personality makes watching your videos very comfortable. you also seem to be genuinely interested in the game and what you're talking about which is a quality that makes watching these videos much more enjoyable and intriguing. watched a few of your videos after clicking on the first video i saw of yours, the Mikaela lore video, and decided to give a sub! cant wait to see what more you have to offer us !!!!!

Yoichi does also have psychic powers and we know that his father is in the realm with him in ghost form because the end of his lore and his perk it's hinted at strongly and because both have super natural abilities I think this round would be a interesting pair up

I think Quentin has beat Freddy in DBD lore. The first line of Quentin's lore is 'When he heard that Nancy's mother had disappeared, Quentin Smith knew instantly that their success had been short-lived'. Nancy's mum being killed is the last scene of the movie, so that makes me think that the lore starts after the movie ends. You seem to know your stuff though, so maybe I'm wrong

My first time seeing your videos, and I like the concept, I subbed :)

i'm a big quentin enjoyer and i'm extremely excited about him winning in the poll against freddy. i have some thoughts about it, so: quentin has dealt with freddy already alongside nancy. something a lot of people dislike about the remake is that nancy does very little, unlike her much more capable counterpart in the original. instead, quentin always takes action to help her and himself - he shares his medication with her even though that means he'll run out faster (and iirc he ends up under a lot of scrutiny from the pharmacy for running out so quickly), he steals adrenaline from the hospital, and he's constantly doing research in order to figure out what they're up against. when freddy returns in dbd lore, quentin immediately reverts back to that survival mode, staying awake for as long as humanly possible to prepare to fight freddy once again. he's an incredibly capable and active person and with his experience (and personal motivations) against freddy, i know he's definitely winning, even without plot armour (and even without my extreme bias)

I would love to see this again but with randomized pairs. Might be fun to see what it churns out.

As was expected Mr A your knowledge is legendary 👍👍

Yoichi escaped Sadako because his mother helped him. Sadako is an Onryo she cannot be stopped she sweeps the survivor floor she might struggle with Ash, but the rest are deceased including Yoichi lol

The fact Ash vs Ghostface was as close as it is shows how little the DBD community knows about Evil Dead and that's a criminal injustice. Ash wouldn't even break a sweat tossing that skinny little nerd on his neck, even with no weapons and just his mechanical hand

Ada is a super agent she can definitely get out of Wesker's hands

Yun Jin escaping trapper was he best part of the lore fr.

This is a unique video style. All that's missing is some background music in my opinion. Other than that, I enjoyed it.

between nancy and steve, nancy would obviously be way harder for demo than steve would, nancy is smarter (she planned a whole set-up trap for demo on season one when she was like, 16yo), she's also more resourceful than steve, since she knows how to shoot. so yeah, nancy would def carry steve if they had to escape demogorgon together edit1: actually, I belive she was 15yo in season 1, since she (as jonathan confirms in season 4) was going to college (which would make her be 18yo in season 4), this makes her be even more impressive by how smart and skilled she was in season 1

I loved this video, man! I actually learned more about the survivors and killers in this video because I didn't know some things. I'm STILL torn on Ada vs. Wekser 😂😂 The plot would make her escape for sure (just like in all RE games when Wesker beats up Chris but Chris still survives haha)! I like Rebecca a lot (besides Jill, she's my favorite female character), and after playing RE0, she really can hold her own! You'll see if you play it (which I recommend even though it could definitely use a remake)! Wesker could kill her for sure, but her intelligence and medical know-how can help her survive some dangerous encounters. I always thought that photo of Rebecca in Wesker's desk was so random XD

“Im not biased, shes just my main” yeah i totally get you there

yoichi wins, easily. not only does he have experience with sadako's curse, and researching the paranormal, sadako's curse is extremely easy to avoid. the ONLY thing you need to do to not die in 7 weeks time is to make a copy of the tape and give it to someone else. at that point it just becomes a moral dilemma. sadako can only really manifest in this way, as i understand it. the only way you die is by watching the tape and not following the "charm" to divert the curse. though, when sadako was alive, she DID have the power to use her psychic abilities to kill someone. yoichi just couldnt get on her bad side in that case. and also. time discrepancy, what with sadako dying several years before yoichi's supposed birth. we talking strictly dbd rules, though? you've all seen one pump willie. spam teleport and he's dead if he gets downed. the outcome would depend on a lot of things, so realistically, sadako as if she were alive and not just a curse on a tape? she can kill as she wishes! but as it stands, the curse is easy to divert. (though you all should definitely check out the original books it takes on more of a sci fi detective element than horror, there's a really well made audiobook on youtube it's what i've been doing to get my ringu fix)

On the Pig situation tapp definitely wins pig lost a fight to man who was dying of his injuries unarmed and amanda was armed so a skilled detective definitely survives

New poll idea:who can beat/escape their killers outside the realm

10:28 it depending if it's a real match or just 1v1 if it's a real match Yun Jin will just throw Claudette at the Trickster Send bag Meg In a chase and will make a deal with the Trickster in which he got Dwight in a locker and she escapes .

If memory serves Jill only escapes nemesis because her partner dropped a rocket launcher to her.

Cheryl vs pinhead or Ash vs Pinhead would be a great debate to see lore wise

I actually think mikaela is the best counter against pinhead. While he's strong the only thing you gotta do is solve the puzzle box which anyone can do. Pinhead also gonna be sadistic and won't kill her quickly given her more opportunities to escape with the boons helping her.

With Vittorio and the knight, I had voted for the knight at the time. You can also see it quite well in the trailer, that he decides with short hesitation then but for the escape. However, I noticed that again afterwards. I think now would be a meeting once again more interesting between all 5en. The companions of the knight are obviously undead / ghosts. Vittorio, on the other hand, has survived in this world for more than 600 years (well, so have the knight and his people, but they're probably not quite as threatened as Vittorio) and during that time he got the tattoos that... are obviously very powerful. I am curious if this question will be taken up again in the Riftlore by the two.

You accidentally said that Trapper was on his was to kill Yun-Jin. I had to listen a couple of times to realize you meant the trickster 😂

Ash mopped Jason and Freddy at the same time. Ghost face is dead 💀

Jeff would possibly be able to hold his own against the legion for a short period of time, just by his stature and build he could throw some haymakers but ultimately would be stabbed a whole fuck ton.

I think it would be nice if you made a video of who the survivor has a better chance to win against that killer, for example Jake would have a good chance against Doctor or Spirit because of his perks, Chris against Wesker and so on

Depending on the timeline Wesker would let Ada go because they have been long time partners, she got the G-Virus sample for him and Wesker helped her escape Raccoon

Micaela definitely escapes Pinhead! She’s a witch, that fought entity with a success, she’s clairvoyant, and could cast a spell or do other witchcraft where’s pinhead follows rules, and he isn’t as versatile as her.

One thing he didn’t mention about the Steve and Nancy vs Demo was that this demo was abandoned by the mind floyer according to DBD lore meaning Steve and Nancy could better out smart it

*You know Pyramid is the James original enemy, right?*

This makes me want to see animated fights between people and their counterparts.

“The thickest plot armor you’ve ever seen.” Have you ever seen Batman?

I think u should put Ash vs Pinhead and Mikaela vs Ghost, I understand the choice, but I would love to see Ash and the Cenobites

I agree that The Quentin would have absolutely gotten the sacrifice when considering the movies, although Freddy could have escaped had he been able to spawn in more dream pallets to confuse The Quentin during the trials.

Honestly, the most powerful survivors in the realm are those either gifted or survivors themselfes before going into the realm. Like Vito who has a grasp of the arcane and forbidden knowledge he would have gotten from several years in the realm. So id say he would win since his knowledge and experience of strange powers and the realm is only 2nd or 3rd next to a literal witch and person who studied the realm

I think Pig, Clown, and Twins all win and Vittorio has a real good chance of winning especially if Knight doesn't get his guards but even then we see in the cinematic that it's not until he's surrounded that he runs instead of holding his ground.

Nea is with Nurse. They came together, have a trailer together. Also, I'm pretty sure Meg was with Hillbilly and her other default skin makes sense a bit with the farm

Nancy is literally a bad ass, more so than Steve. I love him but she would win. I also do feel that Meg would win against Wraith. She's one of if not the most athletic survivor, no? All of her perks are good for chases, looping and surviving in general.

In movies the pig has acces to strong tranqulizers, also undetectable and fatal ambushes, also tapp doesent have weapons. Only thing that shields is his bulletproof vest, but vest doesent protect whole body yk.

Would like to see an expansion to this video with the legendary skin survivors & killers too like James, Chris, Armored Titan, Mordeo, etc.

To a comment you said about if any survivor would survive Myers it's Laurie. I'd also say ash would too. I mean ash took on both Freddy and Jason at the same time so I think ash would survive against every killer

Honestly for Cheryl vs Pyramid Head another thing to keep in mind is that he is a force of punishment. He goes after someone who feels an intense guilt that makes them feel they need to be punished. Thus I would argue that unless Cheryl feels a need to be punished, that Pyramid Head wouldn't even be able to harm her

But in the end, they would all die to the Entity herself: Nea.

To argue for feng, she doesn’t need to hide she sees the trials as challenges and almost like a video game, let’s look at her perk lithe she could easily escape chases also she has alert she’s easily alerted of doctors location plus with technician she’s good at not alerting him with gens so doctor couldn’t track her plus feng from tomoe would dust her teammates and leave them behind to escape easily feng escapes doctor

To add on with Laurie, after Michael got up and grabbed Laurie she took off his mask, he dropped her to put the mask back on but then right after dr.lumis appeared and shot him 6 t i m e s. So even if he wasn't there she could of gotten away and escaped Michael. And to add onto Pyramid head vs Cheryl, Technically Cheryl did nothing wrong, and had not to be regretful for. I guess she's upset about her father dying but it wasn't her fault so it can't be a cause for his judgment/execution. So he wouldn't hurt her because she's innocent.

If steves to win demo, nancy should to as she is equally if not alot more skilled at fighting, shes litterly a machine in the end w all her guns, idk why they thought demo would

This is my first time learning Claudette's counterpart was Nurse idk why I didn't put this together sooner. It literally makes all the sense.

Thank you for putting Pyramid Head in the right place as james specifically. Hate how it's mixed up.

Wesker has insane superhuman speed. Remember RE5? He’s easily able to dodge bullets. And that isn’t just reaction speed as we actually see him moving around from place to place at that speed. That’s hundreds of miles per hour. I have no idea how Ada would be able to evade him for even 2 seconds before being obliterated.

People fr always be sleeping on Ghostface. Yes he may just be a dude with a knife but he's a professional knife killer literally can stab you 40 times before you blink

I'm pretty sure the picture of Rebecca was placed in Weskers' desk by Barry, who wanted to get Wesker fired. Back when they all worked for S.T.A.R.S.

Yoichi definitely escapes onryo I read the novel saw the movies and even his dbd version is just escaping

Probably could've had Nancy and Steve together like Legion since they're both technically against Demo in the show.

You forgot someone you forgot Nea because she is a secret killer and she was just disguising herself 🤯

Why was Claudette paired with the Nurse? I thought the nurse was from Nea's dlc

I play as Ash and do quite well. Prestige 13 now. Still quite low rank really but ive moved onto Jake now to get to prestige 3 for the perks. LIked!

At the beginning. As long as Laurie survives im happy

"If DBD was a movie" my man's got foresight

Also, if the oni we have in dbd is a true oni it can literally kill gods according to Japanese folkcore, so it could easily be one of the most powerful characters in the game, maybe more than the entity

Leon absolutely survives because Nemesis has no intention to hunt him \o/ given Nemesis is solely there to clean up the remains of STARS Bravo team - id actually argue Jill would have a big struggle against him given shes unarmed - though i still love my RE protagonists enough to root for them xD

Even if it's not accurate I still call my demogorgon, dartanian. He's the goodest good boi. Honestly David and huntress would be a fun fight to watch. I know huntress would win but it'd be a good show. This list was super fun to listen to!

Honestly hoped to see Wesker vs Chris redfield since that is the main battle in RE5

Why is Claud against Nurse when Nurse is literally paired with Nea in the trailer xD

The new ghostface while most likely stand more of a chance against ash

Yoichi isn’t even in the books? Sadako has some absolutely wild powers and literally no one escapes

The oly one I didn't agree with is Pinhead, since yeah he is way more powerful than Mikaela, if Mikaela managed to remind him of his humanity he would likely let her go. There's also the circumstances that lead to them meeting. If she willingly solved the box he'd likely kill her, but if she was forced or tricked into solving it, he'd let her go.

I think if left unchecked Dredge would just kill and consume everyone and everything in the realm, with the exception possibly being Pinhead.
