Metal Gear is a franchise of stealth games created by Hideo Kojima. Developed and published by Konami, the first game, Metal Gear, was released in 1987 for MSX home computers. The player often takes control of a special forces operative (usually Solid Snake or Big Boss), who is assigned the task of finding the titular superweapon, "Metal Gear", a bipedal walking tank with the ability to launch nuclear weapons.Several sequels have been released for multiple consoles, which have expanded the original game's plot, adding characters opposing and supporting Snake, while several prequels have explored the origins of Metal Gear and recurring characters. The third game in the series, Metal Gear Solid for the PlayStation, marked a transition to 3D graphics and gained the series international fame. It was ported two years later by Microsoft Game Studios to Windows, marking the franchise's debut on the platform.Individual installments have been critically and commercially acclaimed, as well as receiving several awards. The series has sold 60 million units as of June 2023.The series is credited for pioneering and popularizing stealth video games and "cinematic video games". Notable traits of the series include cinematic cutscenes, intricate storylines, offbeat and fourth-wall humor, and exploration of cyberpunk, dystopian, political and philosophical themes, as well as references to Hollywood films. In the Metal Gear universe, history had diverged at some point during World War II, with the fictional Cobra Unit, led by The Boss, being instrumental in the defeat of the Axis Powers. Cloning, AI and robotics technology of the 1970s are more advanced. The eleven games in the main Metal Gear series continuity reveal a narrative that spans five and a half decades, from the Cold War, until the near future. Big Boss is the most relevant character within the story of the series and of the canonical 11 games five are prequels centering on his story, set decades before the events of the original Metal Gear. However, Solid Snake is still depicted as the primary main character of the series, as the prequels create context of his purpose and him being the antithesis of his father. Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance is a 2013 action-adventure game developed by PlatinumGames and published by Konami. It was released for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in February 2013, Windows and OS X in January and September 2014, and Nvidia Shield TV in January 2016.Revengeance is a spin-off in the Metal Gear series, set four years after the events of Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots. In the game, the player controls returning Metal Gear character Raiden as he confronts a private military company that intends to destabilize peaceful nations for profit. The gameplay focuses on fighting enemies using a sword and other weapons to perform combos and counterattacks. Through the use of "Blade Mode", Raiden can dismember enemies in slow motion and steal health items from their bodies. The series' usual stealth elements are also optional, serving as a means to avoid combat.The game was originally being developed internally by Kojima Productions, who announced the game in 2009 under the title of Metal Gear Solid: Rising. However, the team met with difficulties in developing a game based on swordplay, so supervising director Hideo Kojima postponed its development until a solution could be found. The project resurfaced in late 2011 under its finalized title, with PlatinumGames as the new developer. The game underwent significant changes in its play mechanics and storyline under PlatinumGames' involvement, although Kojima Productions retained responsibility for the game's overall plot and Raiden's design.Upon its worldwide release in February 2013, Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance was well received by critics, being praised for its sophisticated cutting system, its use of Metal Gear elements to complement the story despite the game's focus on action, its soundtrack, and its boss fights; some criticism was directed at its camera mechanics and the short length of the story mode. The game also enjoyed positive sales, with the PS3 and Steam versions selling an estimated total of more than 1.2 million copies. While those involved in the game's production have expressed desire to develop a sequel, such prospects have yet to come to fruition due to the conflicts between Konami and Kojima Productions. - บันเทิง

@@Serhik-id1fh not only did you miss the joke but you're an objectively incorrect snake meatrider
@@Serhik-id1fhhe could if the devs listened to the players and gave us a sequel
@@KarmaticLunacy Snake, Raiden, and Big Boss are all peak fiction.
Cool video. Honestly besides the feats I feel like the reason Solid Snake always comes out on top is because he simply wants to win more than his opponent. He just has more willpower. I mean the dude managed to more or less kill the greatest living soldier ever without a gun.
He is goat'd
he's just that guy to put it simply
He also comes up with the best strategies
Big boss was 60 fighting solid who was in his prime😭😭
Snake and radien are the obi wan and anakin of the metalgear universe
8:20 I don't take powerscalling seriously but Snake didn't catch up to running man. He outsmarted him.
He wasn’t getting blitzed
So snake is basically the equivelant of ¨I have a one hit kill finger gun¨ ¨I have an anti one hit kill finger gun shield¨ by the time 4 started
MGS sure can be weird, but that video game series sure is one heck of a power fantasy.
I didn't even know I needed this video until it dropped, Great Work!
I think The Sorrow is the strongest, dude is literally invulnerable.
No he got the best durability you cannot hit him
He was controlling Mantis for some reason...
@@PunishedSnakeV Not being able to hit someone doesn’t make them durable
@@CRISIS_COMICSI think that's kinda weird. It seemed more like he intervened and stopped Psycho Mantis.
@@nightfaller2303still no one can hit him so İm right
I'm glad to see that my boy Sam at least makes it into the top 5
I enjoyed this video, never expected someone to powerscale metal gear characters but I'm here for it! Rank the metal gears themselves next please ❤
Love that Solid Snake still reigns mostly supreme lol.
You should do some more who would wins with Snake against other characters similar to him. A good example that I think would be cool is Snake vs Leon from Resident Evil as a starting point.
Or Snake vs Lara Croft
Snakes a lot stronger than other game protags like that.
literally makes no sense to compare them if snakes there

Bro I was literally watching your MGS3 video and by pure coincidence this came out the same day. Thank you man, I love your MGS content and I love your channel, you earned a like
Great video as always, I was really hyped for this one
Yooo let’s go! Your MG power scaling videos are always my favorite
If this one does well I'll make more!
Man keep doing metal gear videos and battles u got me into metal gear and into a lot of things your one of the most underrated and best youTubers rn💯🔥.And a good video idea could snake take down the seven?
Been waiting I'm watching and it sure is an awesome video
I knew that snake and co. were above mgs raiden before this, but i do find it funny to visualize snake vs someone like armstrong. Imagine snake just using the 1-2-kick combo from mgs3 over and over again on him 😂😂😂😂
And screaming mantis being that strong is crazy, not even 4th wall shenanigans works i guess
The metal gear content is always dope
Love your videos. This is probably my favorite
Glad you like it!
Great video Crisis, as always
Real recognizes real.
Nice vid bro
Super dope vid need more metal gear content
THE GOAT FINALLY MADE ANOTHER MGS VID!
Damn you really did your research, brilliant video.
Years in the making! Thanks for the kind words.
@@CRISIS_COMICS True dedication 👏
I really love this Video, didnt know that Snakes feats go that insane, I always thought that Raiden is the strongest, thanks for opening the mind of many MGR players
So I'm just going to assume that the Johnny from Snake Eater is the strongest character in the series considering he wasn't mentioned here.
Obviously
Decoy octupus and fatman also Weren't mentioned
They solo

This for some reason reminds me in a way of how we use to look at power levels in dbz back in the day although those characters are leaps and bounds more powerful than anyone in the MG series. Cool to see these different rankings as it gives things more context in the MG universe. Good video!
DBZ scaling is a big influence to every channel like mine; glad you enjoyed the video! I have many more analyzing MGS and other fictional series'.
off topic but i wanted to know your opinion on Matt Murdock Daredevil . what are your thoughts on his character and his martial arts bec i think he’s a very underrated martial artist and street tier character .
Lets go im gonna enjoy this
raiden can literaly throw a whole metal gear into the sky and jump on multiple incoming rockets...bro...☠
Gray Fox threw a Metal Gear and Snake jumped on a rocket as well.
Raiden halting Haven is a better feat than tossing Ray or Excelsus and Snake scales to that per physically overpowering Vamp.
@@CRISIS_COMICS ok so almost as strong but his speed makes it impossible for snake to land a hit on him if we are being serious
@@l1ghtjok3s66Raiden was shown to be much slower than Sam's Quick draw which he thinks Snake can easily deal with.
@@l1ghtjok3s66 Nope. Stronger. And Snake scales to Sam who's as fast as a bloodlusted Raiden.
Always good to see some MGS scaling
This is gonna be fun.
Can you fo this for the Infamous series?
The strongest characther is Metal Gear Solid is Hideo Kojima
How am I four days late I’m subscribed and everything great video though
glad you like it!
You got my sub.. you're pretty good
Pretty....good
This makes me want to learn about MGS
I have many videos on it!
When you add the cosmology from the other media's snake cameoed in his scaling becomes even more scary.
How strong is Snake with non Canon material included?
@@filthybugger6236Canon snake should be about country level scaling off Mantis

@@FutureIndustrieseditzCOUNTRY? WTF? HOW?
@@CRISIS_COMICSCrisis we need that Fortnite and Smash Bros scaling video for Snake next in honor of him being in the game
i enjoy when ur in seths streams
2:06 Where did this and the character pages for The Fury and The End come from?
Better every time I watch, tell you what
But you forgot something
MGR raiden with the unlimited blade time wig
I ain't mad at your conclusion, just surprised
Hard to say if the wigs are canon, but it doesn't really matter. Clearly Sam nor Armstrong are negged by Blade Mode and Snake scales to them.
@@CRISIS_COMICS okay.
Good video dude I thought MGRR Raiden was the strongest, but it totally makes sense that MGS4 Snake is stronger.
Thanks! Glad you got the logic.
Will you be playing Suicide squad kill the justice league? If so, will you have a updated version of how strong Arkham Batman is?
Return of the King.
Only as good as my kingdom!
How good was Big Boss before being rusty in Mgs 3 ? Did he get back all his skill by the end of Mgs 3 or did he get better than he was at his peak when he originally trained with her ?
Better. Towards the start of MGS3 he thinks he could never beat the Boss no matter what, by the end he obviously surpasses her.
@@CRISIS_COMICS It's even stated in general that Snake doesn't stand a chance against The Boss in the beginning of the game and he can't even comprehend her moves at all

Nice
The GOAT Crisis returns to Metal Gear
As it has returned to me.
Everyone keeps saying shit about Raiden doing crazy bs in Revengance, but fail to realize it is purposefully made to be a different genre of game than the mainline series.
Yes Raiden is cool and powerful, however we consistently see the Snakes preform much more impressive feats albeit without as much hype due to mainline being a relatively more grounded experience than the action game which is Revengance. If Snake was in an action game I’m sure he’d do the same type of shit as Raiden, you don’t see Snake doing hype action shit because thematically it doesn’t fit, it’s as simple and meta as that.
Did I miss where Senator Armstrong ranked or was he not listed?
He's at the Beginning of S-tier
CRISIS u should do a video where u take solid snake or big boss and put them in each Arkham game and see how they’ll do
Hey crisis fire video bro in marvel comics is black panther a master of all forms of martial arts?
yep
hey crisis would Characters like wolverine And captain America be masters of all fighting styles in the world
Do you think you could do a Mario and Pokemon scaling video?
Yessss YES! Loving the snake love.
How do you think Solid Snake compares to comic characters like Slade, Batman or Captain America?
Solid snake and Raiden can crank 90s I hope that goes into the rating
God I hope they bring that mini game back at some point.
@@CRISIS_COMICSfortnite mini game ?
You`re pretty good.
CRISIS, you are golden god.
Correct me if I'm wrong but aren't aren't power suits by MGR's time meant to be superior then from snakes era. When talking about Sam's exploits in a codec call, Kevin says that he took down a bunch of guys with just his sword and the conversation implied it was just his sword. (For the life of me I can't remeber where I heard this but wasn't it stated that he only started using a power suit to even the playing field once usage of cyborgs became more mainstream? Wouldn't his suit be cutting edge for the time if it could match all the insanity that is MGR's campaign)
I agree with most of these but I continue to be reminded of the fact of big boss in pw stopping and even lifting the cocoon boss ai and it was beyond any natural abilities and is on par with Raiden throwing multiple metal gears
Superman and Batman have both kicked down doors, that doesn't mean they're just as strong as the other. Everyone above Big Boss in the video would be stronger than him despite his being able to lift Cacoon.
@@CRISIS_COMICSSo, Meryl and Sniper wolf can lift Cocoon?
@@lukayaroslav9914Winning a fight isn’t a lifting competition. Even if they can’t lift it they’ve shown the capacity to harm people stronger than those who can lift Cacoon. Lifting strength ≠ striking strength.
@@CRISIS_COMICS And Chrisis thank you for not downplaying snake because ever since big boss came to the picture everyone was downplaying snake in character and in power scaling but thank you for making this video on just how powerful solid snake can be and I do 1v1 edits about mgs characters if you want to check that out but like I said thank you.
@@BattlesEditsKGIt feels like people are slowly replacing solid snake title of the poster boy of the series by replacing him with big boss it’s just kind of unfair considering almost every single big boss fan I ever seen be downplaying on other metal gear characters.
I'm curious on your opinion of SSKTJL and the rather...'controversial' handling of a certain character.
17:21 song?
I'll belive you when solid snake runs on rockets and tosses a metal gear twice.
Raiden believes Snake can easily replicate everything he did.
Sam wouldn't be able to do that either
What I want to know is where the pool that drowned Huey would scale. It could beat the Man on Fire so it's gotta at least be Foxhound-tier.
2:37 this art is rad, does anyone know where it came from?
Search Metal Gear Solid portable ops landscape art or something like that
8:19 i've heard that feat and i've seen been calced it came to 36% SoL
Question: Where would the top tiers scale (like City level like in that way)
The top tier scales to mountain level with MFTL+ combat speed
@@GinIsScales ok thanks
@@GinIsScales if i could ask which feats make them reach that tier
@Tenyearsinthejoint2005 Tank an explosion that shred a metal gear with nuke tanking armor. This metal gear being far superior than peace walker, who inside has a nuke greater than Tsar Bomba. So if we go by 57 megatons which is city level, and then add on the statement of exoskeletons being a several times amp in power. Several meaning more than two, but not much. So if we go by 57 megatons x 3, they would be mountain level by MGS1 and is backed up with Psycho Mantis being stated to be able to cause natural disasters
The MFTL+ speeds comes from a calc where it's based on a clip of Rising Raiden being able to see a laser in slow motion
Serious question. Ratatouille vs Stuart Little who wins in a fight
Snake does not "keep up" with Running Man. He lays mines.
He’s not getting blitzed
Old Snake really is just built different huh
Interesting.
Can you please 🙏 make a video on how much strong is Lobo from DC Comics.
I have no doubt that if Sam had the same cybernetics as Raiden, that he would be able to dunk on everyone in the series, in a codec call he is baffled that Sam was able to clear a room full of soliders with only sword
Hey crisis if you like the Arkham and metal gear games stealth element so much you should give assassins creed a shot
It’s kinda hard to do power ranking for msg series, the things characters do are so inconsistent 😂 still love the series anyway
It’s really not that hard
I always figured Grey Fox during MG1 is slightly below Older Venom Snake, since he was captured and couldn’t finish the mission.
I suppose it’s always possible that the real Big Boss did give Venom a heads up
Honestly now with the added feats from scaling to the Rising cast, I'm honestly curious hearing your take on Comics Batman Vs Solid Snake,
Love the Snake > Raiden breakdown
I would like to mention raidens upgrade was unneeded. He could have beaten them all if he came to the conclusion he did half way though the game. Mgs has a funky way of making people stronger the more will power they have.
Can you do Nightwing vs DareDevil
You should do a Knightfall video
who's your favorite snake?
I like all of them and have no favourites but I admire venom alot not because of his skill but his overall character I think I have a deeper connection with his character than all of the other snakes.
mgrr 2 some day
Don't fuck with this senator!

You just answered your own question😅
Still wouldn't beat johnnys grandfather
I have a question then, how durable is outer heaven considering that you said it is more durable than metal gears?
It is more durable than metal gears.
Yes, but in what sense is its level of durability, what is it city or mountain level, something like that?
@@CRISIS_COMICS Since in the power scaling video about Jetstream Sam you said that the metal gears should have a durability of 60 megatons which is city level and if the warship known as outer heaven is more durable than the metal gears. What level of durability should outer heaven have in terms of power scaling?
@@user-de8uc7fi3l At least greater than 60 megatons
@@CRISIS_COMICS So you are telling me that that warship called outer heaven has a durability greater than 60 megatons at least and the armor of the same warship was dented by Raiden who was injured and was missing an arm at that time plus Liquid Ocelot made a small dent in his fight with Solid Snake. Snake withstood all of Liquid Ocelot's blows which proved to dent the outer heaven that is very impressive.
Snake would be broken if he had a green lantern ring
Or Thor's hammer!
@@CRISIS_COMICS yeah that too. there's probably a lot of powerful items that will fit right with snake
Didn't the O. G. Big Boss aka John best David at the end MGS 4? Granted David was weaker due to his age acceleration, and he wasn't wearing his muscle suit. A 70 plus year old Big Boss still bested him in that cemetery 🪦🪦🪦🪦🪦 that day. But John's body isn't his own , they had to reconstitute and reconstruct him with parts from Liquid and Solidus, with nano machine augmentation. Therefore, it probably gave the the elder O. G. Boss an edge over Old Snake that day. .
Love that scene in MGS 4..
"This is good , isn't it ?"
Like u mentioned Snake didn’t have his tech, he also didn’t want to kill Big Boss as shown by his putting his gun down in hesitation. Liquid and Solidus were stronger than Big Boss so him getting their body parts would only make him stronger compared to Snake who just went through hell, had none of his equipment, and didn’t want to kill. Snake essentially shit in Big Boss twice in the franchise.
Why i can t find Sephiroth vs ganondorf? I AM from Poland.
Isn't Raiden effectively the surpassment beyond Metal Gear by the end of Revengence?
Solid Snake was born to surpass Metal Gears... they aren't even the final bosses most of the time
We all know Johnny without stomach problems is easily the strongest in the verse
Big Boss lifting up a metal gear in Peace Walker is still crazy AF
i wish we saw old snake suplex a metal gear aswell
Hay you should do an avengers at their peak
Let's be honest here. Johnny and Otakon are chads that carried the franchise.
I knew Snake was strong but not THAT strong jeez, guess he's pretty good
Also amazing video!
