“I can destroy universes without even trying, you’re utterly stupid if you think you can win toaster.” -Frieza “But can you block?” -Megatron *And thus Frieza exploded from PTSD*
Even way better when Frieza only transformed not because Megatron was stronger, but out of anger. Frieza really acts worst than a spoiled brat when things don't go his way
Something I noticed on rewatching the fight: Megatron won the war with literally his first strike, showing his centuries of experience. Cybertron has seemingly been evacuated, showing his forethought on Frieza’s arrival, and his first move was to destroy Frieza’s only means of transport away from the planet he is on, and to the rest of the galaxy at large. He knows at the start of this fight, I think, exactly how it will go. He can’t kill Frieza, but he can push him further than Frieza expects, make him expend all his energy, and cripple him in his most powerful known form. And so he does. And, while Frieza’s empire may come looking for him, I wouldn’t count on it. Frieza is feared and reviled in the modern Dragon Ball setting, those loyalists with him are likely the only ones with an active interest in keeping him alive. He leaves Frieza adrift, alone, low on Ki, his body half dissolved, drifting in the void of space for eternity, just as he said in his monologue. Frieza may have won out in the actual battle to the death, but Megatron’s wit and brilliance prevented the death of his people, and left his foe weakened enough that another fighter may be able to finish what he started, if it comes down to it. TLDR: Megatron lost the battle, but won the larger war, Frieza is in no condition to travel space with his Ki reserves depleted, and his body in ruins. Frieza has no means of transport, or navigation between stars, or even means of sustaining himself along what could be years of travel to the next closest celestial body with actual sentient life. Megatron traded his life and the planet he held so dear, for overall victory and survival of his people, ever the brilliant tactician. A fitting end.
There's also the human cost. Megatron, in a single shot, murdered multiple soldiers (the storyboard shows Appule straight up getting deleted), so Frieza, on top of that, lost a significant number of his troops. Based on real life conquest campaigns, he potentially brought some of his best men to this mission in case things got dicey, and will now have to rearrange his troops to make up for the losses.
Frieza will likely be killed by Optimus Prime, Shockwave, SixShot or any other .1 Percenter easily or Primus himself wakes up and erases Frieza from existence if we continued. Your whole explanation is amazing and very true to Megs Character. That's the reason why I consider Megatron to be the Greatest Villain Ever especially the Animated and Prime Version.
Megatron: "Not bad for a librarian! Perhaps you should spend more time at The Pit!" Optimus Prime: "And perhaps you should spend more time at the library!"
Frieza may have won the fight, but in the end, Megatron made sure he left with less than he started. He lost his ships, likely few soldiers piloting the other two, the planet he tried to conquer, and most of his body. When he calls him "ruler of a dying planet" he basically was pretty much mocking him like "Enjoy your nothing, idiot!" He was determined to kill all Cybertronians after just fighting one, showing even after he won, he saw them as a threat. Even in death, Megatron himilitated him.
Now that's a phyrric victory I could do without. If am gonna go paranoid just because of the opponent that I barely beat to death, then that dead opponent has my mind beat.
There's also the possibility that some Cybertronians out there may be powerful enough to threaten him like Megatron did (Not to mention every Autobot and Decepticon alike is gonna want his head on a pike after destroying their planet). He wants to kill the Cybertronians because he sees them as threats, not wanting to make the same mistake he did with the Saiyans, but leaving them alive wasn't the mistake he shouldn't be repeating. He's basically made an enemy out of ANOTHER potentially dangerous race. A frozen soul that never learns indeed.
But if this episode continued longer than I'm sure a lot of Cybertronians can easily beat Frieza and his remaining army. The 0.1 percenters, Wreckers, DJD and also solo bots like Shockwave, SixShot, Overlord, ThunderWing, Optimus Prime etc. Realistically Frieza Lost Because if Megatron is gone. The whole Deception Armada will want his head
I like how Frieza begrudgingly respects Megatron and his people more after getting his body mulched and his ego bruised. He couldn't be bothered to remember the name of the planet at the start, but by the end, he'll remember the term "Cybertronians" well...
I don't think "respect" is really the right word to use. It's more like he acknowledges how strong they are, and he sees them as a total threat. In a way, he now fears them.
He ain’t going to play whenever he sees Optimus lol, he’s going straight to Black form once he learns that Optimus knew Meg’s… what happens after that… I dunno
Megatron: (Laughs) “Behold the mighty Lord Frieza, ruler of a dying planet- MY PLANET! Where is your army? Where is your ship? So powerful yet you will wander the depths of space for eternity ALL BECAUSE OF ME! What a fool.” Frieza: “You despicable incredulous worm! I’ll torture you until your screams can be heard in the vacuum of SPACE!” Megatron: “DIE A FOOL’S DEATH.”
@NossoMonstro his Ki reserves are likely drained after that fight and more than half his body missing. Not to mention that even if he could still fly at FTL, would even he know where he's going without navigation? Space is really really big after all, it's easy to get lost.

In case if you're wondering why Death Battle are just reuploading the fight animations now instead of new full-fledged episodes, that's because their parent company, Rooster Teeth, shut down a couple months back, forcing the show to go indie. They're working hard on the new episodes, the first of which comes out October 6th of this year. They've also announced a bunch of matchups confirmed for the show: - Kratos VS Asura (God of War VS Asura’s Wrath) - Bowser VS Eggman (Mario VS Sonic) - Omni-Man VS Bardock (Invincible VS Dragon Ball) - Ash VS Yugi (Pokémon VS Yu-Gi-Oh) - Ruby VS Maka (RWBY VS Soul Eater) - Mahito VS Shigaraki (Jujutsu Kaisen VS My Hero Academia) - Kyle Rayner VS Simon the Digger (DC VS Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann) - Aang VS Traveller (Avatar: The Last Airbender VS Genshin Impact) - Hulk VS Godzilla (Marvel VS Godzilla) - Gru VS Megamind (Despicable Me VS Megamind)
I’m more Megatron but yeah I knew Frieza would win. But watching Megatron break Frieza mentally was so satisfying and hey even if he lost, he hurt his pride hard.
He may not have been the victor, but Megatron totally stole the show here. That last stand of his at the climax is one of my favorite moments of this whole show, and I'm not even a Transformers guy. And when your response to seeing a gigantic ball of death hurtling toward you and your home is to rocket jump toward it while cackling like a madman... Well, that's how you make an impression.
Megatron triggered Frieza into using a form saved for one-tapping the literal strongest people in the Dragonball universe... In his own way, he kinda won this fight
Oh Mighty lord Frieza ruler of a dying planet, my planet. Where is your army? Where is your ship! So powerful and yet you will wander the depths of space for all eternity ! What a fool ....
Actually it is what he wants. In any universe where Cybertron is destroyed, where the emanation of Primus's Spark is extinguished, that universe is immediately destroyed as Primus acts as the Counter to Unicrons destructive influence. Without him Unicrons faint echo on reality immediately overwhelms space-time destroying that universe in an instant.
@FinnOver-k6b well that and how barren Cybertron is it seems this fight is just after the All Spark is Jettison from Cybertron. As the All Spark is Primus's Spark the destruction of Cybertron means little. Hell, technically if the All Spark can be placed into a new planet it will be reformatted into a new Cybertron.
“Where is your army? Where is your ship? So powerful & yet you will wander the depths of space for eternity. ALL BECAUSE OF ME!” Frieza won the battle, but Megatron won the war.
Even his Leon's of experience will need considerable luck to land his antimatter attack over Frieza's whole body (he can survive in smithereens). When it comes to sheer might, few can withstand Dragon Ball's roster.
Am I the only one who thought Megatron was gonna take a page out of his IDW counterpart and keep Frieza in his Panic Pubble and annihilate him with his Anti-Matter.
@@martinsoto6146 I thought that was going to be the finish too. That’s easily an alternate ending to this fight. Especially if Megatrons better speed-feats were considered.
That certainly is A win condition, but it's a weak one. Frieza is way to fast for Megatron to ever really land a blow let alone trap him. Not to mention Friezas ki barriers nullifies the anti matter completely.
Realistically that is how the fight would actually go, especially considering how easy it is to make Frieza mad and irrational, and how good Megatron is at strategy and mental gaming people. I feel like the contrast between their personalities wasn't made a serious factor in the fight, nor was the panic bubble despite how it should be one of Megatron's most important moves vs a faster opponent like this. And then there's the antimatter... which, I've never actually read the IDW comics, but it did not take a whole lot of research to learn their interpretation of Megatron's Antimatter ability was completely wrong and incredibly nerfed.
Yeah, because Anti-Matter isn't really like Hakai. it's a move that will always bypass durability no matter what. I thought megs would teleport Frieza to the black hole where he keeps the anti-Matter, so a huge amount of it can overwhelm him and then kill Frieza.
The winner was obvious from the matchup but that still didn’t take away from how amazing this fight is. Great job on the animation, music, voice acting, and everything else!
Yeah I was a little worried that Frieza was gonna lose. This was the only time I wanted to see him win. Only to find out I pretty much had nothing to worry about… I love this fight a lot.
Frieza actually probably should have lost. They gave him the W because too many Dragon Ball characters have lost and it would be a bit unsightly to have yet another one lose, and honestly the fight is close enough that they can asspull justification for either one winning since they're both effectively outerversal gods. But they got Megatron's Antimatter ability very wrong and nerfed it a lot, and that's a very big factor to just get completely wrong. That plus the panic bubble nullifying Frieza's speed advantage should have been a very big problem too, and there's no arguing against the fact that Megatron is the smarter fighter and better tactician. That and, I think it was a factor that they had an idea of how they could end the fight in a way where both parties had a satisfying conclusion - Frieza "wins" the fight but really he loses in every other conceivable way. If Megatron were the winner, it would be hard to give Frieza a similarly satisfying conclusion. But if you actually look up how cracked IDW Megatron is... yeah, he should have won. I was shocked to learn how crazy strong he actually was when I researched him, and I can promise you death battle massively downplayed him.
It's really not that obvious once you read the comics. IDW is like Archie Sonic where it just makes them OP for no reason and was written by insane people.
Theory: Megatron knew Frieza was coming and that his people stood no chance of defeating him. Because of this, Megatron evacuated Cybertron in the event that he died and Cybertron was destroyed and stayed behind to fight Frieza.
Yeeeeeeah and well if Megatron did that much damage I can imagine the second Cybertron explodes someone like Optimus will know and he will search for Frieza possibly with other powerful Cybertronians.Translation Megatron lost the battle but his people won the war.
by one of my favorite fights, Megatron fights a literal planet killer but stood his ground and nearly one without the need for a power up, showcases Megatronpower-up is a force to reckon with even if he perishes megatron was absolute
@bomberhood7234 I know right? Why was it taken out in the first place? I also don't like it when they say the name of the fighters at the beginning of the video and then the introduction
The annoying thing is how megatron isnt slow, he was literally fighting a 3v1 in the ergosphere of a black hole, which makes him literally faster then light. Not to mention how he literally caught frieza in his safety bubble. That should've been game right there, and before you say it, they used IDW feats for Megatron which means his body is made of ore...10 i believe it was? Regardless he became the enbodiment of entropy and a paracausal being. So no, frieza should NOT of just been bisected
Sorry, but a character like Frieza is OP is the “Transformers” universe - there’s no way he was going to walk away alive. Nonetheless, Negatron did manage to leave him crippled and stranded in space: this pretty much guarantees that Frieza’s victory is a hollow one…
keep in mind, megatron got this close to winning in his *base* form. Had he been Galvatron, Super Megatron, or Primus forbid Gold Megatron, Frieza would've been *eradicated*.
It wouldn’t have changed much honestly hell it would probably be worse for megatron cuz frieza would take him seriously and just one shot him with black
@@Seraphinamagi yeah i'm sure feriza would stand a chance against the higher-dimensional multiversal god-megatron who leads an army of other god megatrons and was literally a match for their creator deity, primus, who again, is a higher dimensional multiversal singularity.
2:49 A giant sphere of death screaming toward the planet--the end of the world right on the horizon. Most sentient beings would fall to their knees in despair, praying to their gods for mercy. Megatron is not most sentient beings. He faces the Death Ball head-on and laughs maniacally as if to say, "Challenge accepted.", confident he can repel the attack and save his world. And Megatron just might have succeeded, had Frieza not pulled Cybertron itself up behind him.
I don’t know how people can say Megatron had any kind of victory at all here lol. Frieza blew up his planet and is now going to systematically kill the rest of his race, on top of killing him of course Also he can sense ki now, so all he has to do is go to the nearest planet he owns and hop into a healing tank
Exactly lmfao the person saying Frieza “actually lost” because Megatron beat him mentally is pure cope 😂 Not only does Megatron die, he loses everything he ever fought for or cared about
Devilartimis definitely killed that Golden Frieza transformation. Combine with the music In the background during the transformation. Probably my favorite moment in this battle.
I love that Megatron lost but not before mostly taking everything from freeza his army a planet for him to conquer, most of his limbs all gone and he has left his the memory of Megatron screwing him over
It could have been nice if they added in the Remastered version of Final Formers in this one. But it’s still pretty freaking good. I do hope that they add in The remastered versions of Their Other Vocal songs in the other battles that they upload.
The best track, in death battle history, and I will fight to the bitter end for that. This fight is such a solid battle and exactly what I wanted from these cartoon monologuing villains
Starscream: What’s the matter? Can’t handle the fact that our planets gone because of you? Knockout: Can’t be as humiliating as your death battle Starscream. Starscream: *stutters* I have no idea what you’re talking about. I won my death battle. Knockout: That's not how I remember it. Starscream: Ignore him Lord Megatron, he's just malfunctioning.
Megatron: "Chuckles darkly with a smirk" No I believe Knockout is right Starscream. Not only did you lose to a pipsqueak of an organic, who did not hold a fraction of the power as the one I fought. But she swollowed down your spark faster than a Scraplet can eat metal! It's no secret that it came out of her exhaust port after the battle ended, which you have since tried to cover up!
@@EvilSuperFella200 Something to note: Not a single Cybertronian other than Megatron is seen, and the ones that are left on Cybertron are all warriors of the highest caliber that have been fighting nearly as long as Optimus Prime and Megatron. Which begs the question, "Where are they?" and the answer is "Not on Cybertron". So just Megatron put Frieza in that state at the end, and in terms of power, there are far stronger Cybertronians (like Shockwave) than Megatron. Meanwhile, Frieza's soldiers he brings with him to threaten Cybertron are wiped out at the start, and he has no means of communication without his ship. Megatron said it himself: "Behold the mighty Lord Frieza, ruler of a dying planet- MY PLANET! Where is your army? Where is your ship? So powerful yet you will wander the depths of space for eternity ALL BECAUSE OF ME! What a fool". The crazy part is, he was right. Frieza expended resources making an enemy of a race that has members that live for eons and never forget a grudge, whilst making a martyr of one member of that race who had already outsmarted him by evacuating the planet Frieza had come to claim. Megatron won the war before it even began. The only things he lost were the battle and his life.

I’m more Megatron but yeah I knew Frieza would win. But watching Megatron break Frieza mentally was so satisfying and hey even if he lost, he hurt his pride hard.
The funniest thing is, Megatron would have likely won this fight had Super not happened.

They're screwed though, especially the Autobots.
Megatron's a martyr now. Frieza botched what should've been a total stomp and now this is a precarious situation
He may not have been the victor, but Megatron totally stole the show here. That last stand of his at the climax is one of my favorite moments of this whole show, and I'm not even a Transformers guy. And when your response to seeing a gigantic ball of death hurtling toward you and your home is to rocket jump toward it while cackling like a madman... Well, that's how you make an impression.
Plus, despite the power difference, he stopped that blast dead in its tracks

@@markwakefield2030 yeah, you got a point
Megatron triggered Frieza into using a form saved for one-tapping the literal strongest people in the Dragonball universe...
In his own way, he kinda won this fight
Oh Mighty lord Frieza ruler of a dying planet, my planet. Where is your army? Where is your ship! So powerful and yet you will wander the depths of space for all eternity ! What a fool ....
"You despicable cretinious worm! I'll torture you until your screams can be heard in the vaccum of space!"
Really sucks to be Unicron. Not only did he lose his life to Galactus, but he lost his potential dinner to Frieza.
Actually it is what he wants. In any universe where Cybertron is destroyed, where the emanation of Primus's Spark is extinguished, that universe is immediately destroyed as Primus acts as the Counter to Unicrons destructive influence. Without him Unicrons faint echo on reality immediately overwhelms space-time destroying that universe in an instant.
@@Seeyou45 But since Galactus has killed him, that point is rendered moot anyway.
@FinnOver-k6b well that and how barren Cybertron is it seems this fight is just after the All Spark is Jettison from Cybertron. As the All Spark is Primus's Spark the destruction of Cybertron means little. Hell, technically if the All Spark can be placed into a new planet it will be reformatted into a new Cybertron.
“Where is your army? Where is your ship? So powerful & yet you will wander the depths of space for eternity. ALL BECAUSE OF ME!”
Frieza won the battle, but Megatron won the war.
Especially with *"DIE. A. FOOL'S. DEATH!"*
Even his Leon's of experience will need considerable luck to land his antimatter attack over Frieza's whole body (he can survive in smithereens). When it comes to sheer might, few can withstand Dragon Ball's roster.
@@lightningandodinify Well actually, it's actually a LOT closer han one might think.
Than Frieza becomes the Racist to both Giant Robots and Monkeys at the same time how beautiful
he’s gonna hate Optimus Primal then
@@notreallyizaah3025 Primal be like: oh no
BW Megatron be like: YESSSSS KILL HIM!
If Frieza saw Optimus primal:Hello monkey
If Megatron had infused himself with Dark Energon for this Death Battle match, he'd be unstoppable.
Or if they gave him the Dark Star Saber, but then again, they didn’t give Prime his Star Saber back in his own DB
Well that is aligned continuity megatron not G1/IDW megatron
Technically full armor megatron would be better
It wouldn't have mattered; that killing blow was a headshot, and he'd be blown to pieces afterward.

List of casualties in this battle:
Megatron, Cybertron, the Frieza Force, all of Frieza's ships, the lower half of Frieza, and Frieza's ego.
Frieza after the battle:
Well, guess im gonna use the dragon balls to restore my body!
Am I the only one who thought Megatron was gonna take a page out of his IDW counterpart and keep Frieza in his Panic Pubble and annihilate him with his Anti-Matter.
Yes the anti matter should have one that
@@martinsoto6146 I thought that was going to be the finish too. That’s easily an alternate ending to this fight. Especially if Megatrons better speed-feats were considered.
That certainly is A win condition, but it's a weak one. Frieza is way to fast for Megatron to ever really land a blow let alone trap him. Not to mention Friezas ki barriers nullifies the anti matter completely.
Realistically that is how the fight would actually go, especially considering how easy it is to make Frieza mad and irrational, and how good Megatron is at strategy and mental gaming people. I feel like the contrast between their personalities wasn't made a serious factor in the fight, nor was the panic bubble despite how it should be one of Megatron's most important moves vs a faster opponent like this. And then there's the antimatter... which, I've never actually read the IDW comics, but it did not take a whole lot of research to learn their interpretation of Megatron's Antimatter ability was completely wrong and incredibly nerfed.
Yeah, because Anti-Matter isn't really like Hakai. it's a move that will always bypass durability no matter what. I thought megs would teleport Frieza to the black hole where he keeps the anti-Matter, so a huge amount of it can overwhelm him and then kill Frieza.
0:45 in frieza's mind he thought: hmm, it appears i'm not dealing with the average cybertronian warrior, wait, why does that sound so familiar?
Frieza one shots him
@@FrostByte_06 Keep yapping the SAME thing, hypocritical 🤡.
1:24
Frieza be like: “Okay, that actually hurt. Now I’m not messing around.”
The winner was obvious from the matchup but that still didn’t take away from how amazing this fight is. Great job on the animation, music, voice acting, and everything else!
Yeah I was a little worried that Frieza was gonna lose. This was the only time I wanted to see him win. Only to find out I pretty much had nothing to worry about… I love this fight a lot.
@@HeroTheHedgehog999 what you mean Frieza lost homie he lost the war
sure he won the battle but he lost the war by a light year long shot
Frieza actually probably should have lost. They gave him the W because too many Dragon Ball characters have lost and it would be a bit unsightly to have yet another one lose, and honestly the fight is close enough that they can asspull justification for either one winning since they're both effectively outerversal gods. But they got Megatron's Antimatter ability very wrong and nerfed it a lot, and that's a very big factor to just get completely wrong. That plus the panic bubble nullifying Frieza's speed advantage should have been a very big problem too, and there's no arguing against the fact that Megatron is the smarter fighter and better tactician.
That and, I think it was a factor that they had an idea of how they could end the fight in a way where both parties had a satisfying conclusion - Frieza "wins" the fight but really he loses in every other conceivable way. If Megatron were the winner, it would be hard to give Frieza a similarly satisfying conclusion.
But if you actually look up how cracked IDW Megatron is... yeah, he should have won. I was shocked to learn how crazy strong he actually was when I researched him, and I can promise you death battle massively downplayed him.
It's really not that obvious once you read the comics. IDW is like Archie Sonic where it just makes them OP for no reason and was written by insane people.
@@GigaLigmaRight, the fact he made Frieza go into his highest form is a noteworthy feat.
Goes so unequivocally hard
Theory: Megatron knew Frieza was coming and that his people stood no chance of defeating him.
Because of this, Megatron evacuated Cybertron in the event that he died and Cybertron was destroyed and stayed behind to fight Frieza.
Yeeeeeeah and well if Megatron did that much damage I can imagine the second Cybertron explodes someone like Optimus will know and he will search for Frieza possibly with other powerful Cybertronians.Translation Megatron lost the battle but his people won the war.
Megatrons speech to Frieza was the hardest most BADA$$ burn I’ve ever heard
by one of my favorite fights, Megatron fights a literal planet killer but stood his ground and nearly one without the need for a power up, showcases Megatronpower-up is a force to reckon with even if he perishes megatron was absolute
"Pity, I'll have to construct a new mothership from your corpse!" Is one of my favorite lines on Death Battle

Your passion is contagious! Keep sharing it.
All these years later, and Frieza still doesn't know what a minute is.
3:01 Sparking! ZERO ahh moment
This was an awesome 3D animated fight between Frieza and Megatron
I’d already reacted to this death battle
This one of my top 10 battle that they made were spot on. The battle, and music were awesome.
The annoying thing is how megatron isnt slow, he was literally fighting a 3v1 in the ergosphere of a black hole, which makes him literally faster then light.
Not to mention how he literally caught frieza in his safety bubble.
That should've been game right there, and before you say it, they used IDW feats for Megatron which means his body is made of ore...10 i believe it was? Regardless he became the enbodiment of entropy and a paracausal being.
So no, frieza should NOT of just been bisected
Both are faster than light characters. However, Frieza has the feats that should make Megatron a statue to fight against
@@bestlaptop_psn considering Megs can out pace Blurr, I'll put them as equal or megatron is only a little slower, no-where near a "statue"
@@TheCarrionKing27 I'm not aware of his personal speed feats
Transformers One came out, and DAIMA comes out in a month.
The algorithm is gonna love this.
Don't forget Sparking Zero as well 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Gonna be honest it would’ve been hilarious is Primus reformed and annihilated what was left of Frieza after megatron was dead
They are cooking on this animation
Artemis REALLY went hard with this one!
I love it when Artemis really goes all in on his animations!
Bro megatron a voice actor is just phenomenal, if the original voice actor passed I wouldn’t mind this guy ngl.
This may be a stomp in Frieza's favor, but it's still an entertaining fight.
I still think Megatron should have won but I’ll admit, it’s good to revisit this fight and seeing Devilartemis take his animation to the next level
I agree with you on both of those statements. I've made a comment discussing my thoughts if that interests you.
@@SpacecoreHey thank you and ok sure, I’ll read what you post
@@nyancatneil205 You're welcome. Have you found it?
Sorry, but a character like Frieza is OP is the “Transformers” universe - there’s no way he was going to walk away alive. Nonetheless, Negatron did manage to leave him crippled and stranded in space: this pretty much guarantees that Frieza’s victory is a hollow one…
@@wilberwhateley7569 continue filling your head with nonsense
Freiza: I win…
Megatron: Did you?
Wish you guys would've posted this a few days ago during the Transformers 40th Anniversary. Still one of the best animations.
keep in mind, megatron got this close to winning in his *base* form. Had he been Galvatron, Super Megatron, or Primus forbid Gold Megatron, Frieza would've been *eradicated*.
It wouldn’t have changed much honestly hell it would probably be worse for megatron cuz frieza would take him seriously and just one shot him with black
Tldr: any version of megatron wouldn’t win in a straight fight period frieza is just that much stronger stronger
@@Seraphinamagi yeah i'm sure feriza would stand a chance against the higher-dimensional multiversal god-megatron who leads an army of other god megatrons and was literally a match for their creator deity, primus, who again, is a higher dimensional multiversal singularity.
@@Mushroom_Man yes I completely believe that super scaling is nuts
@@Seraphinamagi then you're just flat out wrong lmao, stay mad
2:49 A giant sphere of death screaming toward the planet--the end of the world right on the horizon. Most sentient beings would fall to their knees in despair, praying to their gods for mercy. Megatron is not most sentient beings. He faces the Death Ball head-on and laughs maniacally as if to say, "Challenge accepted.", confident he can repel the attack and save his world. And Megatron just might have succeeded, had Frieza not pulled Cybertron itself up behind him.

Okay, so… if Freeza wins, and Goku beats Freeza, then by the transitive property of asskicking this is a W for Goku
I don’t know how people can say Megatron had any kind of victory at all here lol. Frieza blew up his planet and is now going to systematically kill the rest of his race, on top of killing him of course
Also he can sense ki now, so all he has to do is go to the nearest planet he owns and hop into a healing tank
Yeah… Transformers fans are weird.
Exactly lmfao the person saying Frieza “actually lost” because Megatron beat him mentally is pure cope 😂 Not only does Megatron die, he loses everything he ever fought for or cared about

Gotta love that the TFS cast is still doing voices for Death Battle. Hell Yeah Brother!
3:35 the best moment
This fight was so good, it makes me want a rematch with Galvatron.
Megatron might’ve had a better chance with the dark star saber, it was really strong in tfp but idk
I love that DB kept Golden Frieza's Magical girl transformation lmao
Devilartimis definitely killed that Golden Frieza transformation. Combine with the music In the background during the transformation. Probably my favorite moment in this battle.
I love that Megatron lost but not before mostly taking everything from freeza his army a planet for him to conquer, most of his limbs all gone and he has left his the memory of Megatron screwing him over
Naaaaa that frieza transformation didn't need to go that hard

It could have been nice if they added in the Remastered version of Final Formers in this one. But it’s still pretty freaking good.

Perfect Timing, since Transformers One is premiering this Friday which I am so totally going to see! Autobots, Transform and Roll Out!
I like how Frieza skipped his 2nd, 3rd & buff form
I mean, does he needs to use those forms? This isn't like Goku VS Superman.
The best track, in death battle history, and I will fight to the bitter end for that. This fight is such a solid battle and exactly what I wanted from these cartoon monologuing villains

Ehhhh Frieza’s army will most likely pick him up like what happened after Namek.
@@EvilSuperFella200 Something to note: Not a single Cybertronian other than Megatron is seen, and the ones that are left on Cybertron are all warriors of the highest caliber that have been fighting nearly as long as Optimus Prime and Megatron. Which begs the question, "Where are they?" and the answer is "Not on Cybertron". So just Megatron put Frieza in that state at the end, and in terms of power, there are far stronger Cybertronians (like Shockwave) than Megatron. Meanwhile, Frieza's soldiers he brings with him to threaten Cybertron are wiped out at the start, and he has no means of communication without his ship.
Megatron said it himself: "Behold the mighty Lord Frieza, ruler of a dying planet- MY PLANET! Where is your army? Where is your ship? So powerful yet you will wander the depths of space for eternity ALL BECAUSE OF ME! What a fool". The crazy part is, he was right. Frieza expended resources making an enemy of a race that has members that live for eons and never forget a grudge, whilst making a martyr of one member of that race who had already outsmarted him by evacuating the planet Frieza had come to claim. Megatron won the war before it even began. The only things he lost were the battle and his life.
I love how the animation is different in a lot of these videos. Keeps things fresh and interesting
