Zero could totally crush the doppelganger. He beat Omega, who is his original body, jacked up with cyber elves and crack and a giant fuck off megazord and powersuit.
Keep in mind, this is Zero AFTER he fought the equivalent of a Gundam inside of another Gundam back to back before fighting Omega, who was basically Awakened Zero with 2 extra Gummy Bears and a shit ton of Sugar. So yeah, at full health, Omega would be cooked WAY faster than whatever time it took in canon. 😂
But there is dangers, spikes. Let's not downplay Castlevania like one boss is making a copy of yourself so another zero with everything He has. And Dracula himself is pretty hard
@cmxb2081 as far as it goes with the doppelganger he fought omega. As far as the spikes he could always use cyber elf Jackson for temporary invicibility. I mean he could probably use 2 specific cyber elves to erase all the enemies except for the bosses. The cyber elf combo is the one that turns all enemies into metools and then one that erases small enemies. And yes. Metools count as small enemies. I'm sure the Dracula fight would be tough to deal with though.
@@rabbitbeargaming2441 okay the problem with Omega is that he had a old body of zero, now imagine a current zero with everything he has now. And Dracula is pretty darn strong in the lore
What was that bit about MvC? Zero doesn't live in a digital world. You're thinking of MegaMan.EXE and all the other NetNavis, Zero is just capable of entering the dimension of Cyberspace.
And even that doesn't matter as copy bots exist, those things are monstrous as they allow the Navis to use their skills at relatively the same level as in cyber world and if the bot is destroyed they don't get deleted, just jacked out of the bot, also certain levels of radiation or projection technology can allow net Navis to materialize just like star force MegaMan does.
@@carlostejeda4341 Yup,really their only limitation is that they can't use battle chips. Not like Zero needs them though. Also not entirely sure this is the case but MAYBE he got a bit confused by BN Zero from Network Transmission? Regardless though yeah,Zero has plenty of ways to interact with both the physical and digital worlds.
...What do you mean 'Zero can interact outside of his digital world?' Zero's not an AI, he's not a NetNavi - he's a robot. He exists in the physical world. Sure, he might run out of energy eventually without a proper power source, but it's not as if he exists on a different plane from humans.
Thanks for telling me. This was a first dip back into megaman for me and I only really got into battle network as a kid through the anime. So I assumed he lived in cyberspace. I played x1 when I was even younger so didn’t remember much. I’ll make an edit to the video.
@@NathinOut yeah battlenetwork is a completely different timeline zero is just a straight up robot in the physical world in the future. i dont think calling him a reploid is accurate cause reploids are based on X and he isnt. although he has the freedom/functionality of a reploid so its not entirely wrong to call him one either also it might get a little confusing but cyberelves are digital creatures that effect the real world with the ability to influence the real world. in the zero/X series they can use different methods to go into cyberspace to if that might have confused you a touch.
I mostly agree, but I think it's actually a toss up. Yes, Zero would clear most of the castle, but you either have to have certain specific capabilities or holy equipment to deal with Dracula, otherwise he doesn't really go down. Zero doesn't innately have either requirement fulfilled, so you have one of three options: 1) Zero loots up a holy weapon, which I would say can't be considered a fameplay convention when Hammer is able to establish a business through looting the castle. He shouldn't have too much trouble improvising a physical holy weapon, and Maria and Richter would probably have warned him since he would definitely not be from around those parts 2) He coordinates for Richter to swoop in to finish Dracula off, which I think is unlikely because by all appearances, maverick hunters are usually operaring extremely limited to outright solo (since they seem pretty stretched thin), and with the amnesia, as a resistance member Zero had definitely operated solo: He'd be unlikely to be able to coordinate with Richter effectively. 3) He borrows the VK whip itself, but Potrait of Ruin accounts that it eats life of any non-Belmont user. Hard to say if that affects a robotic entity. Zero seems to be living, cyber elves are seemingly just basically reploid souls, but IMO it's hard to know if the VK can "comprehend" Zero. BUT IN TERMS OF GAMEPLAY PEFORMANCE yeah basically, Zero would clear house no contest, exactly as you said.
The only difficulty Zero may encounter is that he’s not using any magic/holy weapons like the Vampire Killer or Crissaegrim/Alucard Sword, which may make it harder to truly harm some of the higher tier residents of the castle like Death or Dracula. Otherwise he’s not gonna have too much trouble
Zero could absolutely handle just about everything Castlevania throws at him with one caveat... none of his weapons have mystical properties like the vampire killer whip. He may need to get creative here and there.
If the mirror copies Zero as he is than I’d say no. Keep in mind Omega is using Zero’s original body and the one he’s in is, as Dr Weil says, an inferior body. So no Cannonball playing in the background unfortunately. Although I never played Symphony of the Night so I don’t exactly know if that’s what the mirror does or not.
Here's the thing. Zero would solo 99% of castlevania. Zero is much faster, he is a robot, his reflexes are beyond anything in Castlevania. On top of that Zero has mini upgrades that help him in multiple situations. Anyway, the only people that can realistically fight Zero are people like Alucard, overpowered belmonts like Richter or Julius, Dracula and some big bosses like Galamoth. Other than that I don't see anyone stopping Zero. If his Z-saber can cut through robots like bread and butter, imagine flesh.
No, Zero is slow as fuck and too weak to damage anything after mid game. Every CV protagonist and major recurring boss throughout the series destroy him. Julius and Alucard just straight up one shot him with zero difficulty.
That is so painfully wrong, I think you know absolutely nothing about Castlevania. The verse itself can scale as high as Multiversal, as the series revolves around Dracula's Castle, a place that does not respect the laws of time and space, which in many games acts as an alternate dimension which also contains other alternate dimensions in itself, such as the Reverse Castle. Many of the monsters in the series being very powerful, froms beings that can bring down stars out of orbit, to enemies like the Time Reaper who could erase timelines, and the very physical manifestation of the concept of Death. Dracula himself is a whole other beast, his mere presence being able to disrupt the flow of time, and he's able to do things like warp reality, which he does almost every time he transforms. And the Belmonts themselves are consistently portrayed as being just as strong, or stronger than Dracula, with many of them having ridiculous feats, such as Julius Belmont, who was capable of negating the regeneration and the immortality of various monsters in Dawn of Sorrow.
@@akiradkcn He isn't from the Cyberspace. He could enter it during the events of Z3 considering Omega's presence or some shenanigan like this. But being from this place is just not possible since, by the time, he was still alive. He could only be from there if he ever died, Phantom died in Z1 due to Zero fighting him. And you could fight him once more entering the Cyberspace in one of the final levels of Z3. So it could be implied that Zero's death in Z4 have thrown him in there now. (Or so it seems considering, unfortunately, ZX series.)
And Zero's Saber also likely runs on plasma-cutter tech. Heck, one could argue it's even *more* advanced in Zero since it can take on hard light constructs shaped like a mouse cursor of cutting, a whip, or a pair of tonfa.
@@demianoff Relax, the Netflix series claims the only reason vamps across cultures fear the cross is because it's a complete right angle that screws up their predator brains. Toooootally canon and not a shoddily-shoehorned-in reference to some other work... (Seriously who the hell greenlit that line)
@@MrCat-zz5eo it seemed like an attempt to explain why only that religious symbol affected them, though with magic being an actual thing they should have just tied it to how its ritualistic symbol has given it power over time, or something.
@@demianoffIt is very likely that your explanation is the case, at least in the original game series, since almost all of the games tend to have stuff related to Christianity, God himself exists in the series, and is explicitely mentioned in games like Lament of Innocence, where Dracula declares himself God's enemy. The Belmonts themselves are also portrayed as religious and devoted to God, with things like Trevor Belmont praying at the beginning of Castlevania III.
The main difference to consider is that Zero is more agile and faster than any Castlevania character. But since Castlevania characters can level up, in the late games, they'd be tankier and have more fighting options under their belt. So if you're swapping your usually Castlevania character for Zero, you're pretty much trading bigger stats and skill pools for a faster and more versatile character. I'm pretty sure the way how damage scales from early to late game, Dracula can one-shot Zero if any of his attacks connect since Zero's HP and attack stats won't go up. Now if Zero can inherit the same growth system in Castlevania when converting over, now that would make him really broken 'cuz now his stats grow and he's way faster than anything in Castlevania.
While it is true the Castlevania protagonists do harness a leveling system, and especially within the context of Symphony of the Night, Alucard is still going around gathering items to help further augment his health, heart, and mana pools, a concept not unknown to Zero; conversely, the cyber elves would probably be his replacement for lacking the level up system, since they can do the same functions of extending his health and weapon energy pools. Add onto this the comparison of their "sub" weapons, the Belmonts and Alucard can usually only carry one at a time and are always consuming hearts on use, but Zero's acquired weapons and techniques usually don't consume any form of weapon energy, save for his giga attack(s) and time stop. All in all, Castlevania and its occupants would have a hard time against the reploid.
The Level up is the least of worries, I'd be more worried about the Cosmologies and the context of it seeing as CV has Chaos powered Beings like Dracula, the Castle, arguably Galamoth and such. The regular demons are cooked, though.
Combat is not an issue for Zero, but I was thinking that navigating through the castle (especially the second castle) could present some issues, given how he can't fly. However, with the Chain Rod, Recoil Rod, Double Jumps and Wall Kicks, he could navigate most areas pretty well, plus Croire could possibly carry him just a little farther if necessary. Also, yes, SotN Medusa 100% has a dumptruck ass back there.
My first thought: yes, Zero would be fine. The only thing that might stop him, from a video game perspective is if there's some highly specific Metroidvania obstacle that can only be crossed by a super specific thing that Zero can't use.
about the one issue I can see is Zero not having ether a weapon that can put Dracula down and keep him down (Belmont whip, blessed whips, enchanted weapons, Belmont holy Water/Cross ect) or access to the same magics that fuel Dracula letting him disrupt that power and keep Drac from getting back up (Dominus, bloodline association, ect) putting him into a situation like Shanoa without Dominus, caught in a endless duel until the regenerating Drac win's by attrition or decides he's done and nukes the immediate area with a inescapable instant kill. So, Zero has to borrow Vampire Killer from Richter, or hope he finds among the vast array of goods in the castle proper, a weapon or sub weapon that let's him put Dracula down and keep him from getting back up, to defeat Dracula at the end. good video, very enjoyable.
4:48 The librarian would only help Alucard due to his ostensible loyalty to Dracula. He refuses to help the others. I suppose seeing Zero’s tech may persuade him otherwise, but at least half the time, I can see him being uncooperative.
Zero is definately strong, fast and smart enough, no doubt there. I think the only real disadvantage he'd have is, assuming he's using only his own weapons, he has no holy weapons. Then again we'll see how necessary that is after he fires a blast of condensed plasma straight into the new chest cavity he carved into dracula.
Seeing how the Positron Rifle obliterates AoS, pretty sure it's canon that Zero's weaponry smokes everything in Castlevania. Omega from Z3 is the clearest indication that Zero can beat himself mid difficulty. Finally, Death's scythe spam gets shut down HARD by Zero's barrel roll slash.
@christopherbravo1813 they have healing / boost powers that only work on reploids (said robots given free will). Unless these vamps knew how to extract the cyber elf powers then these castlevania monsters are a joke to you.
No, they mean robots after death become cyber elves. Which was not intended feature. And they literally have a thing called dna soul which are stacked by nightmare virus and phantoms. And cyber world can literally fuse with real which means it's more than just data in s computer. For all intents and purposes they have souls
@@pablotomasllodra4423 They pretty much function the same way as human souls do. Heck, Dr Light apparently became a Cyber Elf, somehow, at some point. Furthermore, the existence of Model Z is pretty much confirmation that Zero does in fact have some kind of soul that persisted after he died.
This is something I wanted to see all my life tech vs magic zero can breeze through castlevania easily the only character I think that could give zero a challenge is chaos because of its immense powers.
Ironically enough, if you really think about it, Zero is basically his world's equivalent of Dracula. Also, I find it interesting that Death didn't take Zero's stuff in this scenario, that Zero is somehow able to barter with the old guy despite not being Alucard, and that considering what Succubi are known for, that said Succubus didn't take the form of a certain *other* individual from Zero's past who may have meant just as much to him as X did, if not more.
I mean, the first real boss Zero faces in his own game uses electricity as its main weapon, and I believe a later one even straight up drops lightning for attacks, he's not invulnerable to it, but he can take a few good hits
@@EvilXero359 Main heroes in the megaman series are usually neutral to all elements by default. Infact the only time I recall any of them having weaknesses are under certain circumstances on the Network timeline like when using certain forms or wearing certain items. Robot ones are usually only really weak to structural spikes, where they immediately explode on contact, doesn't seem to happen with spikes on enemies though
I think that really this comes down to one question: How vulnerable or immune is Zero to magic? Specifically magic of any mental variety, as he's a robot, and what that would mean for the Richter fight. Would the silver and gold rings, or the holy glasses even work for him? I think that's what it ultimately boils down to.
I have a more interesting question about this topic. What if Death showed up at the same time as he did for Alucard and take away his weapons? Does Zero lose his dash too? What about his forms? I also think it would be interesting for Zero to collect Castlevania weapons throughout he game, using his Zero Knuckle or grabbing some new powers from defeating foes like how Soma can in Aria of Sorrow
I’m sure from a lore perspective your right from what your eluding to. I just meant how the cpu acts in game. But now I’m scared to see how smart it actually is. Lol
Funny thing is zero CAN'T beat dracula or death in lament of innocence it is specifically the magic soul binding of the vampire killer whip that allows leon to hurt death. Death is a angel, holy being he is literally protected by god and dracula by the embodiment of all human evil.
Between Zero and Metal Gear's Raiden, who'd win? ...Zero. Plasma cutter blades can slice through nanomachines, son. Or at least, through Cyborg Ninja bodies.
Heisei Godzilla is, according to VS wiki, a solar system buster. Majin Buu scales at or above that. Heisei Godzilla almost makes it To Super. But then the escalation after that leaves them far behind, when everyone starts scaling to multiversal+
The real question is how will zero get over dracula's immortality, since the only way to really kill Dracula is with the vampire killer or dracula's own power (dominus).
Zero could totally crush the doppelganger. He beat Omega, who is his original body, jacked up with cyber elves and crack and a giant fuck off megazord and powersuit.
Keep in mind, this is Zero AFTER he fought the equivalent of a Gundam inside of another Gundam back to back before fighting Omega, who was basically Awakened Zero with 2 extra Gummy Bears and a shit ton of Sugar. So yeah, at full health, Omega would be cooked WAY faster than whatever time it took in canon. 😂

No, they mean robots after death become cyber elves. Which was not intended feature. And they literally have a thing called dna soul which are stacked by nightmare virus and phantoms. And cyber world can literally fuse with real which means it's more than just data in s computer. For all intents and purposes they have souls
@@vazazell5967 Just not souls as organic or supernatural beings would have.
@@pablotomasllodra4423 They pretty much function the same way as human souls do. Heck, Dr Light apparently became a Cyber Elf, somehow, at some point. Furthermore, the existence of Model Z is pretty much confirmation that Zero does in fact have some kind of soul that persisted after he died.
I doubt Zero died instantly from spike because it's just a normal one compare the more powered ones
This is a super cool concept. So who is the going to do the next step and mod Zero into the game to REALLY test this out?
This is something I wanted to see all my life tech vs magic zero can breeze through castlevania easily the only character I think that could give zero a challenge is chaos because of its immense powers.
Man X and Zero are so OP looking back
Even tho the Castlevania folks also are very OP
*sees title* Well, given how there's a Megaman Zero/Omega mod for Order of Ecclesia...
Bruh what.
*WHAT* lol ?
@thehevandragon what?
Ironically enough, if you really think about it, Zero is basically his world's equivalent of Dracula.
Also, I find it interesting that Death didn't take Zero's stuff in this scenario, that Zero is somehow able to barter with the old guy despite not being Alucard, and that considering what Succubi are known for, that said Succubus didn't take the form of a certain *other* individual from Zero's past who may have meant just as much to him as X did, if not more.
I’ve got an idea for this series
Could Crazy Dave survive (maybe even stop) Call of Duty Zombies
If the monsters, demons of the Castlevania dark magics can short circuit Zero's systems then he probably wouldn't last long
I mean, the first real boss Zero faces in his own game uses electricity as its main weapon, and I believe a later one even straight up drops lightning for attacks, he's not invulnerable to it, but he can take a few good hits
@ZenoDLC I don't follow the lore so I'm just assuming that Zero would be suspectible to electrical attacks
@@EvilXero359 Main heroes in the megaman series are usually neutral to all elements by default. Infact the only time I recall any of them having weaknesses are under certain circumstances on the Network timeline like when using certain forms or wearing certain items.
Robot ones are usually only really weak to structural spikes, where they immediately explode on contact, doesn't seem to happen with spikes on enemies though
@EvilXero359
Given that Zero is future tech in universe, I doubt a bit of electricity would short circuit him so easily.
Dracula and his cabal may not be mavericks, bizarro is still hunt them all down like light work 😎
Cool video
Ok, but... Would Shadow the Hedgehog survive castlevania?
Someone needs to make a romhack of this
I think that really this comes down to one question: How vulnerable or immune is Zero to magic? Specifically magic of any mental variety, as he's a robot, and what that would mean for the Richter fight. Would the silver and gold rings, or the holy glasses even work for him? I think that's what it ultimately boils down to.
I have a more interesting question about this topic. What if Death showed up at the same time as he did for Alucard and take away his weapons? Does Zero lose his dash too? What about his forms? I also think it would be interesting for Zero to collect Castlevania weapons throughout he game, using his Zero Knuckle or grabbing some new powers from defeating foes like how Soma can in Aria of Sorrow
No, the dash is standard stuff for Zero. That wouldn't be taken away, at least
"Lacks the brain power of its original."
Yeah, about that...
I’m sure from a lore perspective your right from what your eluding to. I just meant how the cpu acts in game. But now I’m scared to see how smart it actually is. Lol
Ironically, they share the same Japanese Voice actor.
I was expecting a ROM hack. Now I need it.
Theres Is a Rom hack were you can play Zero/Omega in order of ecclesia and is stupid broken
@@jesicafelix3542 that's even better! Where do I get it?
That was indeed snake ass.
How does zero refill his e tanks? Those energy bit that do it are robot parts. Ibfuess in the reverse library there is one steam powered robot.
Funny thing is zero CAN'T beat dracula or death in lament of innocence it is specifically the magic soul binding of the vampire killer whip that allows leon to hurt death. Death is a angel, holy being he is literally protected by god and dracula by the embodiment of all human evil.
I came in hoping to see a mod of SotN that lets you play Zero.
So many innuendos.
I promise that the shaft joke was not one of them. I was thinking of the character shaft but when I posted it I immediately was thinking “crap…”. 😂
@NathinOut That wizard is one bad mother...
Somebody mod Zero into Castlevania SotN

Wait is this casual player Zero or master player combo mad Zero who can destroy bosses in seconds
No matter, casual player zero still mops the floor of castlevania
Yeah
Yes, next question.
(?)
Between Zero and Metal Gear's Raiden, who'd win?
...Zero. Plasma cutter blades can slice through nanomachines, son. Or at least, through Cyborg Ninja bodies.
Great video man these are two of my favorite game series ever. I’m glad to see someone talking about either.
I just got into both of these recently and had a lot of fun with them. Definitely want to delve more into these franchises.
Zero Survive Castlevania? More like *Speedrun* Castlevania xD
(Unless flight Is a necessary thing In castlevania then I am wrong :c)
I have an idea: Could Godzilla(Heisei Era) Survive Dragon Ball Super?
Heisei Godzilla is, according to VS wiki, a solar system buster.
Majin Buu scales at or above that.
Heisei Godzilla almost makes it To Super.
But then the escalation after that leaves them far behind, when everyone starts scaling to multiversal+
@ dude do NOT trust vs wiki
@@calemrby the way heisei godzilla attack potency is LOW MULTIVERSAL
The real question is how will zero get over dracula's immortality, since the only way to really kill Dracula is with the vampire killer or dracula's own power (dominus).
"Retiring"reploids is the Mega Man video game equivalent of sending someone to"The Shadow Realm".
