True , but that's the real problem with D.C. . they are all gods while marvel used to be humans with extra powers , but now everybody won't die and everybody can't be killed . so they both suck in the modern era .
@@brademerick9181 the DC universe is as inconsistent as the dragonball universe. I think in some cases certain characters can't die simply because of who they are not because of what they're capable of. For example there's a collective agreement that Shazam can't beat superman but at the same time superman's weakness aside from kryptonite is magic. Shazam is as magical as it gets. He's a combination of six gods. Not one. SIX. it has been stated that his strength has no real limit. Punching holes in reality and all that. The archmage he draws the authority of being Shazam in the first place is on the council of God's that watch over the entire universe along side the spectre. That's as close to the actual God (the presence) as you can get but because he's up against DCs poster boy he will get clapped everytime
That's why it doesn't make sense for him to go inside the helmet as the Eye will show that too. Once he removed the helmet he could kill the wearer as the helmet is the one granting power once in place. For someone who locked a god like Dormamu in a loop... Dr Strange had the upper hand and they decided to kill Strange. The helmet is nothing without a host, Strange is powerful without the cape and Agamoto eye.

Still one of my favorite Smack talk in Death Battle. "Steven Strange. It has come to my attention that there are two Sorcerer Supremes in this existence. I am here to resolve this Embarrassment."

After seeing Black Adam, I got curious. I guess Doctor Fate was holding back against Sabacc to prevent Hawkman's death. Which is still very cool to me.
Naah its not nerfed, its just fate choses to save his fren hawkman and he is really looking for a way out to finally rest in peace. for more than hundreds of years he is gifted with knowledge and ability to see others fate and nabu’s possession taking over kents body and soul can make sick and tired for a long run.

That's mostly DC. Marvel has only a handful of characters who can do that. Move faster than the speed of light I mean.

I'm a huge marvel fan, but that was an extremely valid point. Strange is a man borrowing powers from god's while fate is a god borrowing a man's body. Good fight.
13:36 easily one of the coldest intros to a death battle the way the music and Dr fate's booming almost omnipresent voice mix together is so dope not to mention Dr Fates first line

"Strange is a man borrowing the powers of a god. While Fate is a god borrowing the body of a man." This line right here pretty much sums up most Marvel and DC heroes.
Jahel Caro Medina some versions of him.. not the standard tho.. not to mention there's not that many versions of him.. of course if the classic Dr. Strange he would be way too OP and the fight might have been different.. in the old days, anything he needed to happen would happen.. now he needs a pre existing spell.. back then he would've just imagined it and he would just make it happen
Just as Stan lee said, he made his heroes strong enough to win and weak enough to lose Whereas dc has unbeatable superheroes with difficult to exploit weaknesses
And yet DC's still alive and well because writers are smart enough to exploit those weaknesses anyhow. The whole dynamic between Batman and The Joker would be a lot less impressive if both of them had simple solutions to their problems, but it's because they're both difficult to deal with that we get classic stories time and time again. Even the problem with Superman and Wonder Woman being god level is solved with Darkseid and other heroes (very, very apparent in Injustice where if everyone had specific weaknesses The Regime would likely just steamroll everyone).
Your right but i meant this If i recall right the story line where loki was Sorcerer Supreme and Dr.Strange didn't like that so he absorbed all of Yggdrasil power to become god of magic then beat the void and loki
Wrong....Strange is not only sorcer supreme he he is a God as well ....Power Of Vishanti....I need you......Know it's one diety against 4... Lol 😊....Dr strange: He Should Of Bargained ...hmmm. VISHANTI is TRIUMVIRATE Also ....Plus I own and infinity gem.....Dr Fates Fate Was Sealed In Fate.... lol 😊
@@TheLegendaryBillCipher Doctor Fate is made up of two individuals, and his wife was also Doctor Fate at one point, so he can access her soul at anytime.
3:23 I love that Spiderman line, not only because of how much it insults Mysterio one of his most annoying foes, but also considering the hate MCU Mysterio has gotten ever since he exposed the MCU Spiderman
Good point. Even after the New 52, Kent Nelson eventually showed up, not even a scratch that could indicate he was erased from existence. That's two full-editorial retcons, so far.
If that's the case, then he'd be on par with Uatu the Watcher. He's a confirmed and absolute existence within the entire multiverse. Even if Stephen managed to erase Kent's existence, Nabu would not.
Some Yakuza Dad With a Beard also with the writer retcon he had all of his abilities and feats from it. So in other words he was on par with PRE-CRISIS Superman a.k.a more plot armor than Batman!
Iunno what you're on about, this is one of the most civil death battle comment section in a long while. I know there are far more Dr. Strange fans, yet look at that like to dislike ratio compared to other videos
On the movie screen Marvel is on top, but in the comics,....DC out does Marvel in nearly every way and it's characters are ST00PID powerful to the point of being flat out ri-goddamned-diculous!
Brant Frans Thanos without the gauntlet is still powerful, but he’s no match for Darkseid. In the Rebirth comics Darkseid defeated Zeus while he was weakened.
There are many reasons Fate won, one of which is that unlike Strange, Fate is an actual fighter. It’s true Strange has handled and beaten his fair share of enemies, but he’s always done so via outsmarting them as opposed to physically fighting them like Fate has. And there’s no way in heck he’s outsmarting someone like Fate.
Dr Strange: "I've looked into the future, I've seen 135,000,000 outcomes to this fight with Fate" Iron Man: "How many do you win?" Dr Strange: "Doesn't matter, it won't be this one..."
What's with all the Treasure Planet imagery? I love the film, but I get the feeling somebody at ScrewAttack just watched it for the first time and wanted to express their love.
@@starbustergaming5651 well the multiverse in dc is way more insane (that doesn't make it better only more powerful characters) and dr fate has come against more powerful majic
The real reason is the animators aren't really used to animating "indirect" or "unusual" battles like the kind you'd see if two super magicians ever fought, so they resorted to animating what they're used to; a more direct fight with occasional power usage. To be fair, a regular fight is already difficult to animate, a battle between two entities who fight by warping reality around them instead of going face to face or even shooting projectiles at each other is even much MUCH more difficult to animate, so a "true" magic battle where both participants fight by only using their ability to manipulate reality instead of just going face to face or shooting at each other with energy bolts or whatever is extremely rare in any form of media.
Because this channel doesn't use any common sense. This channel is probably the worst channel for anything comic book related. These goofballs don't use any research.
As much as i love dc, winter soldier wins this one. He is a modified superhuman while red hood is just a peak human unless his mentor gives him his belt "batbelt" 😂😂😂
Alien X but red hood was trained by batman (the world’s greatest detective) and has a massive arsenal that can counter many things that the winter soldier has
I don't know about the comics Winter Soldier, but Bucky Barnes has only survived all the bullets coming his way in the Marvel Cinematic Universe due to the stronger-than-vibranium armor he never leaves home without; his plot-armor.
Dr Strange is a phenomenal sorcerer who has to borrow powers and abilities from cosmic dieties and beings. While Fate smacks those kinds of dieties and beings around on a daily
@@BowlTheOne He is released after and is a direct and clear copy of Dr Fate, the word “Dr” followed by one word, they’re both “wizards” or have wizard like powers, hand movement creates symbols, etc. He’s a copy and it’s clearly true
midway thought the fight as they where "blasting each other into different realities" I was expecting them find the one reality where "Chuck Norris & Segata Sanshiro" might still be fighting
T'challa they nerfed strange’s powers to make this fair otherwise strange could have easily just taken away dr fate’s powers or simply banish him to other realms like they mentioned there
Aswad Ahmed you do realise the only way you can actually take his power is to rip the helmet off it’s actually been confirmed you can’t “take away” his power with the helmet on soooo...
if there was magneto vs doctor fate it would be like 10 seconds cuz this god is in a suit of armor kind like iron man so it would be too easy for him to just crush him
this is just mcu dr strange, if this is marvel comic dr strange than he wins. His magic is unlimited and has absorbed whole magic in marvel multiverse and become a god of magic
How can people think Doctor Strange could win? Doctor Fate can handle a punch of a possessed Superman (the Classic Superman) and destroy thousands of universes just for fighting against Mordru, The Lord of Chaos. Doctor Strange is strong but he is pretty underrated. I mean, there is a bunch of characters in DC Comics [and Marvel] that could have their ass eaten by Stephen but not Fate.

I'm a huge marvel fan, but that was an extremely valid point. Strange is a man borrowing powers from god's while fate is a god borrowing a man's body. Good fight.

"Strange is a man borrowing the powers of a god. While Fate is a god borrowing the body of a man."
This line right here pretty much sums up most Marvel and DC heroes.
shadowspider9 dumb line because strange is a god as well
Jahel Caro Medina some versions of him.. not the standard tho.. not to mention there's not that many versions of him.. of course if the classic Dr. Strange he would be way too OP and the fight might have been different.. in the old days, anything he needed to happen would happen.. now he needs a pre existing spell.. back then he would've just imagined it and he would just make it happen
Just as Stan lee said, he made his heroes strong enough to win and weak enough to lose
Whereas dc has unbeatable superheroes with difficult to exploit weaknesses
And yet DC's still alive and well because writers are smart enough to exploit those weaknesses anyhow. The whole dynamic between Batman and The Joker would be a lot less impressive if both of them had simple solutions to their problems, but it's because they're both difficult to deal with that we get classic stories time and time again. Even the problem with Superman and Wonder Woman being god level is solved with Darkseid and other heroes (very, very apparent in Injustice where if everyone had specific weaknesses The Regime would likely just steamroll everyone).
Your right but i meant this If i recall right the story line where loki was Sorcerer Supreme and Dr.Strange didn't like that so he absorbed all of Yggdrasil power to become god of magic then beat the void and loki

3:23 I love that Spiderman line, not only because of how much it insults Mysterio one of his most annoying foes, but also considering the hate MCU Mysterio has gotten ever since he exposed the MCU Spiderman
I mean, Dr. Fate has survived a Writer Retcon. That's quite a feat.
The ultimate feat.
Good point. Even after the New 52, Kent Nelson eventually showed up, not even a scratch that could indicate he was erased from existence. That's two full-editorial retcons, so far.
Damn right
If that's the case, then he'd be on par with Uatu the Watcher. He's a confirmed and absolute existence within the entire multiverse. Even if Stephen managed to erase Kent's existence, Nabu would not.
Some Yakuza Dad With a Beard also with the writer retcon he had all of his abilities and feats from it. So in other words he was on par with PRE-CRISIS Superman a.k.a more plot armor than Batman!
Both doctors meet a strange fate.

Thank you everyone.
@Ki Lightening That's seems like an incredibly overpowered elseword.😅 However sounds really cool👍🏽
It's nice being completely neutral on a death battle, so you can sit back and enjoy the inevitable salt instead of adding to the pile.

Went in rooting for Dr. Strange, left thinking Fate was actually pretty cool.
Fate is amazing, he can be kinda creepy and unsettling, the dichotomy of a literall god and a normal human is really interesting
They are both really great characters

We want Thanos vs. Darksied.
Brant Frans I’m tired of seeing this no you don’t. Thanos without the gauntlet would get wrecked.
Erik Martinez thanos can redirect energy so anything that darkseid throws thanos can throw back
Brant Frans Thanos without the gauntlet is still powerful, but he’s no match for Darkseid. In the Rebirth comics Darkseid defeated Zeus while he was weakened.
Brant Frans I want this fight to!
Brant Frans darkseid would whip his ass but it be cool to see.
If there’s any two characters that wouldn’t fight each other at all, it’s these two.
There are many reasons Fate won, one of which is that unlike Strange, Fate is an actual fighter. It’s true Strange has handled and beaten his fair share of enemies, but he’s always done so via outsmarting them as opposed to physically fighting them like Fate has. And there’s no way in heck he’s outsmarting someone like Fate.
Constantine has tricked Fate before...
But I get you... I would've preferred Strange vs Constantine
@@SodaSeezn Constantine is pretty strange and smart at a same time
@@ChloeKruegerSenpai agreed. It would've been a much more realistic battle for Strange to fight John instead of Nabu
@ArrowSlinger Likely via outsmarting them as opposed to actually fighting them physically.
Strange couldn't really use those hands... if you know what i mean....
Dr. Fate in Black Adam was just confusing.
Magic always is to me
Ah so you saw it too?
just saw it, yeah....
he was fking nerfed in there. He would've ended the show.
I thought he stole the show, really wish he hadn’t died.

Why are magicians having a fistfight.
The real reason is the animators aren't really used to animating "indirect" or "unusual" battles like the kind you'd see if two super magicians ever fought, so they resorted to animating what they're used to; a more direct fight with occasional power usage.
To be fair, a regular fight is already difficult to animate, a battle between two entities who fight by warping reality around them instead of going face to face or even shooting projectiles at each other is even much MUCH more difficult to animate, so a "true" magic battle where both participants fight by only using their ability to manipulate reality instead of just going face to face or shooting at each other with energy bolts or whatever is extremely rare in any form of media.
Meeee
magic requires words, and fights let fists do the talking
Because this channel doesn't use any common sense. This channel is probably the worst channel for anything comic book related. These goofballs don't use any research.
They are universe hopping throughout the fight.
