Before you get your panties in a knot, how many times has there been a thread about religion, marijuana, "this place sucks now" and hawt or nawt?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZLsJyfN0ICU Ninjas are cool, but Samurai are cooler. Pirates then, it is.
We need a new Hot or Nawt thread, because Ugh's shitty pics aren't enough to boost my incredibly inflated ego. Also, Samurai are chumps, Knights are far superior. Especially Teutonic Knights. Anyone who has played Age of Empires 2 knows how broken Teutonic Knights are. And this is still going on? What is this, 2008?
Deadliest Warrior completely forgets about important factors like stealth. Everyone knows ninjas are the ultimate killers, because you never see them coming.
Can't really say one or the other is more superior based on that video. In the leather test, he used two totally different cuts, so that isn't an accurate assessment. Not to mention in an actual combat scenario between a Samurai and a Knight, their two totally different fighting styles make it hard to pinpoint a victor. You have to take into consideration the length and reach of the longsword vs that of the katana,the agility of the samurai. That video didn't do much to prove anything imo.
He said German knights. That's a sword wussy english and frenchmen used. Germans figured, hey, lets combine a sword, and a spear, but keep it a sword! Considering the average european knight had steel armor...well. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zweih%C3%A4nder
Ninjas! No.... wait... Pirates! But Ninjas are qucker! And Pirtates are drunker! Ninjas will kick your ass Pirates will blow you out of the sky hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm I....I....DON'T....KNOW
Oh yes, katanas are far superior and can cut through anything. Because everyone knows katanas are just better.
Link Broken! Anyways, sword-wise the katana was a superior weapon. Armor-wise the knights had superior armor. Mongolians beat both.
