Boomstick: This episode of Death Battle is brought to you by Netflix.
(Rock Music Plays in Backround)
Wiz: Their rivalry is legendary and their fame unmatched.
W: After battling for over two decades, this epic duel will finally meet a decisive end.
B: I've been waiting for this forever!
W: Mario, the whimsical Italian plumber
B: And Sonic, the hyperactive hedgehog.
W: I'm Wizard and he's Boomstick and it's our job to analyze their weapons, armor and skills to find out who would win a Death Battle
W: Mario is one of the Star Children and possesses many special abilities with the intent of protecting his home: The Mushroom Kingdom
W: Even as a baby he was obviously destined for greatness
B: When you've got an army of dinosaurs serving you before you can even speak, you know you're going to do great things.
W: He is well known for his incredible athleticism and his unmatched jumping ability.
B: Who says white guys can't jump?
W: Plus, he's a powerhouse with the strength to lift heavy objects and crush enormous castles.
W: He also uses his bare fists to smash solid brick.
B: With his jumping skills and weight, he can pound and crush his foes into oblivion.
B: And if he needs some extra firepower, well, he's got an entire arsenal of powerups.
W: His first powerup is the Fire Flower.
W: With it, Mario obtains pyrokinetic abilities.
B: Really? I always thought the flower was just really spicy.
W: He can create and manipulate fire to produce a variety of devastating attacks.
B: He's also got his frog suit thingy.
B: While wearing it, Mario can jump even higher, swim even faster, and breathe underwater.
B: The only problem is, no one's really going to take him seriously wearing that thing.
B: Haha, ah, look at him.
W: Several different power-ups have granted Mario flight before, but none as well as the Cape Feather.
W: With it, Mario can fly for an unprecedented amount of time.
B: The Metal Cap turns Mario's entire body into indestructible living steel.
B: But while Metal Mario's extremely heavy, his strength and speed are boosted, giving him 10x more power and just as much agility as before.
W: The Starman envelopes Mario in a blinding aura of compressed energy, granting him increased speed and invulnerability for a short time.
W: Touching a normal enemy in this state will instantly kill the foe.
W: And while it's not technically a powerup, Mario has a hammer that can crush almost anything.
B: It seems that Mario's always popping shrooms to get more power.
B: And with the Mega Mushroom, he gets ginormous.
B: Mowing down people, plants, environments - Hell, EVERYTHING.
W: Mario has battled a larger variety of enemies than any other video game hero.
W: Whether a foe is large or small, scary or goofy, dumb or deadly - nothing has ever proven too much for him.
B: Except for never keeping track of his woman!
B: She's always getting kidnapped, and he's always showing up at the wrong castle.
B: Somebody needs to throw a GPS tracking bracelet on that bitch.
W: He's fairly impulsive and not much of a strategist, preferring to fight his way quickly through problems without thinking things through.
B: But that doesn't matter, Italy's greatest hero can power through anything.
Mario: It'sa me! Mario!
W: Sonic The Hedgehog is the fastest thing alive and a freedom fighter fighting to save the world from the tyrannical Dr. Ivo Eggman Robotnik
B: He's not so bad for a tree-huggin' hippie!
W:Sonic's most notable ability is his speed.
W: He can easily break the sound barrier in mere seconds.
W: While his top speed is unknown, he has clocked in at an average 765 miles per hour.
B: Holy crap! This guy must blow through shoes
W: He can further increase his speed through his trademark figure 8 technique
B: But he's not just fast on his feet, he can curl into a tiny ball and rip through his opponents with a spin attack.
W: His homing attack rockets towards an opponent and can hit multiple times
B: And with his spin dash he can reach top speeds almost instantly
B: How does this guy not vomit?
W: During his adventures he has used a variety of different shields to improve his abilities
W: Each shield can deflect minor projectiles and have environmental advantages
W: Though they will disintegrate after blocking a deadly blow
B: The Fire Shield can absorb, well, fire and heat, though it can't survive underwater
B: No shit. But with it, Sonic can use a fiery dash attack
W: The Lightening Shield can't survive in aquatic environments either
W: But, it gives Sonic a mid-air jump for further aerial control
B: And with the Bubble Shield he can breathe underwater and control his jumps with a powerful bounce
B: Why do we keep mentioning water you may ask?
B: 'Cuz he can't freaking swim
W: Sonic's ultimate power-up, however, isn't a shield at all
W: After absorbing thousands of power rings during his adventures,
W: Sonic has become an embodiment of chaos
W: Using the power of the seven Chaos Emeralds
W: Sonic can tap into their incredible powers, and summon the form of Super Sonic
B: Super Sonic can fly, breathe underwater, and is completely invulnerable
W: Not to mention his speed is increased a thousand-fold
B: But as with most things that are unbelievably powerful, it has a time limit
B: Without a taste of live power rings it can't even last a full minute
W: And when the form finally subsides, Sonic returns to normal at peak physical form,
W: Regardless of his condition prior to the transformation
B: While Sonic's always risking his life saving the world from all kinds of dangerous robots and demigods
B: He's kind of a dick
W: Sonic is cocky, arrogant, and addicted to action
W: He gets cranky and unstable when he's cooped up for too long
B: And if you ignore him, heh, he'll straight up leave 'ya
W: But despite his rough personality, he'll do whatever it takes to save the day
Sonic: Oo, I like to hang, but I gotta juice
[metal door slamming]
W: Alright the combatants are set
W: Let's end this debate once and for all
B: But first, I gotta get me some rocket boots so I can run like Sonic
W: What, where are you going to get the money for rocket boots?
B: Netflix?
[metal door slamming]
W: Netflix delivers movies straight to your house saving you time and money
W: You can watch all kinds of TV and film streamed to your PC, Mac, phone
B: Or your TV with a Netflix ready device like the PS3, XBox 360 or Nintendo Wii
B: Or you can use them all at once for what I call "super flicks!"
W: Go to Netflix.com forward-slash for a free trial membership
B: But right now, it's time for a Death Battle!
[metal door slamming]
Sonic: Alright chubby, let's settle this!
Mario: Letsa go!
Announcer: Fight!
Mario: Zappa!
Mario: Here we go!
[chorus in background]
Mario: Mamma Mia!
Mario: [laughter]
Sonic: Now I'll show you!
Sonic: How's that, plumber?
Mario: Woohoo!
Sonic: So you're a bit tougher than I thought, huh
Sonic: But now it's time for me to finish this-
Sonic: Woah
Sonic: Uh-oh
Sonic: You're too slow!
Mario: D'oh!
Sonic: Now's my chance!
Mario: Waaaa!
Announcer: K. O.!
[metal door slamming]
B: Now that's what I call a Death Battle!
W: Their power-ups seemed evenly matched, countering blow for blow
B: Mario was even able to counter the unstoppable Super Sonic
W: But with their arsenals exhausted, Mario was no match for Sonic's natural speed
W: Even if they had use their lesser know power-ups like the Ice-Flower or Super Emeralds
W: There's no reason to say the result would be any different
B: Looks like Mario just couldn't keep up
W: The winner is Sonic the Hedgehog
[metal door slamming]
B: Next time on Death Battle!
W: Next month we're doing something a little different
B: We're doing two people, everybody wants to see a fight to the death
B: 'Cuz we hate 'em
