SC vs LOTR What would win?

Bruce Lee would win...the Dragon is undefeatable!!

 

LOTR vs warcraft would be a better matchup. Arthas FTW.

 

Isn't this space junk?
Anyway, I think that StarCraft would win, but this is a StarCraft forum. LotR has it's good qualities as well of course.

 

Please.. LOTR?

How is that even a CLOSE matchup for SC?

Any of the characters of LOTR might be able to stop ONE race, but all THREE COMBINED? I think we've all seen how dangerous that is from playing the last mission of SC:BW.

Plus... have none of you played the Helms Deep UMS?

Everyone knows the Marines rape the crap out of the orcs. Not to mention the firebat.

 

For the first: MELKOR WOULD HELP STARCRAFT, AS HE HATE THE OTHER GODS. but i think that LOTR would win, if you think othwerise read silmarillion. And the Valar (Melkor once was a Valar but he god bad) are the gods of LOTR, and can be killed by a man, including marines, zerglins, zealots etc. + they live on an island (in the end of LOTR all elves go to that island) that only one human ever have reach ( silmarrilion) and 2 if we count Aragon with (in the book the hole fellowship wandered with the elves).

 

Morgoth... ahem, was always a Valar, you don't lose that status by going bad. He was the most powerful, and cunning of the Valar, yet he still got whooped by an Elf... So that pretty much means he'd get assraped by a Zealot 10x over.

Valar cant be killed, its just the rule, but you can beat them into submission and probably, in terms of Zealots and Marines, incapacitate them...forever.

No bullshit. Aragorn never goes to Aman.

 

Edited out quotes. Please read the forum rules and refrain from quoting unnecessarily.


I think you should read th books again. And perhaps Morgoth was a Valar in his own mind, but the other Valar dont accept him as Valar, and he dont got killed, he is prisoned uotside Middle Earth by the other Valar

 

WTF. Are you fucking joking me? How could you even actually compare these two. Thats like asking if cavemen could stand up against a platoon of infantry. What're you fucking retarded? Power down for the single most idiotic "vs" thread i've ever seen.

 

Terrans launch 1000 nukes. Protoss fleet blasts the surface. Zerg come in afterwards and start spawning like crazy. If any of that fails, a quick POWER OVERWHELMING could fix the problem in a hurry ;D

 

No sir, I think YOU should re-read the books again. You imply that you know stuff about it, if you wish to carry this status then re-read them immediately because you're on the brink of getting stalked and beat by LoTR fanboys. Not to take this to personal matters, but judging from the quality of your posts, and the dillusioned facts therein, I would assume your comprehension of the work of J.R.R Tolkien are somewhat... inadequate to state facts to someone else. If not that, you probably got all your knowledge from wikipedia... in which case, it equates to none.

If you're suggesting that im WRONG about Aragorn going to Aman, and that Valar CAN be killed... then all hope for you is already lost. Only one, I believe, mortal was welcomed on the shores of Aman, I say welcomed because thousands of Numenoreans set foot on the shores, but as invaders and usurpers, not guests. This was Earendil, in terms of the actual LoTR trilogy, at the end of the Book of Westmarch its speculated that Gimli, not Aragorn, came with Legolas to Valinor. And no, Valar cannot be killed, the lesser Maiar can be killed, but the Valar themselves cannot.

Melkor(We'll call him this for now, to enforce my argument) was a Valar, a very powerful one, brother to Manwe. He sang in the first and second Chorus of Eru. He is STILL considered a Valar, and was never stripped of that status even when he was cast through the 'Door of Night'

In fact, he's destined to destroy the world, what other beings besides the Valar and Eru have the power to do that? None.

 

You're comparing oranges and apples there, you can personally see a huge difference between the game. I would say they are both winners.

 

ummm furrer I think you figuratively dug as deep as the dwarves in Moria and woke up the Balrog of LotR trivia on this forum

If you guys want to discuss, take it to its own thread, so I can lock it without shutting this thread down (jk only if it gets out of hand ^_^)

 

No need, im done. SC would win.

 

Hmm, considering the Protoss can turn the surface of a planet into plasma I'm thinking SC would win. I haven't seen anything in LotR lore that could deal with orbitsl bombardment. Hell, even if you don't go so far as to utterly desroy the planets surface just think about how the hordes of Middle Earth would deal with just the Terran ground forces.

Orc General: We shall over run and destroy these pathetic men who hide within metal machines. The fools actually believe thin sheets of steel can protect them from our unstopable hordes.

Ghost: Call down the thunder.

Orc General: What is this strange flashing red dot.

Hell even if you consider the huge hosts from the Silmarillian you still can't compete with the technology of SC. Even without nukes or fleets just the armies of SC alone could lay waste to the combined forces of all of Middle Earth at any time period. Marines would be impervious to all traditional weapons. The Protoss with their shields would be all but untouchable. The Templars and Archons would be a match for any number of Balrogs and Wizards, demi-gods or not. Dragons are little more than glorified multalisks and SC armies can handle multalisks just fine.

 

Im sorry

And Quanta
There is just a problem with that, in Silmarillian/LOTR there are gods, calld Valars, that cannot be killed. Will you please tell me how to win then?

Edit: change can to cannot.

 

Starcraft has superior firepower and technology not to mention the spiritual prowess of the Protoss that could easily be thought of as "magic".

Tell me how, when MOST of the population of LOTR are people with middle age technology and there are only a small number of wizards, etc.

There are many in the Starcraft world as well that have these "magical powers" Ghosts with their psionic power can run at super high speeds, super strength, etc.

The only thing that would be able to hurt the Starcraft guys would be the wizards and more powerful beings, even then they can still deal with them, Ghosts, High Templar, Dark Templar, Archons,etc.

 

I don't think there is anything in LoTR that would save them from the planet being sterilized by the Protoss.

But ultimately, they are two different worlds. WC would be interesting against LoTR. Who would win? Medhiv or Gandalf?

 

I know I said I was done, but you don't seem to know what you're saying. Do you, by any chance mean CANNOT be killed?
