Pirates are cool; so are ninjas. So pirates fighting ninjas must be awesome. And why not make them all fight some robots while we're at it? Oh and don't forget the zombies. Related to the Ninja Pirate Zombie Robot and Bread, Eggs, Breaded Eggs, this trope is a case when two types of cool things battle it out. Unlike an Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny, this is not a case when two specific characters Duel to the Death. Though a battle can qualify as both, if the two characters are two different character types. Bonus points if the two don't exist in the same time-period, place, or universe. A Massive Multiplayer Crossover often invokes this. A Versus Title is a sure sign of the trope at work and such a work is a good draw for those who are Just Here for Godzilla. A Super-Trope to Fur Against Fang, Pirates vs. Ninjas, Fight Dracula (because a character needs to be awesome themselves to fight him). It's not directly related to Elves Versus Dwarves, though; as that trope is not about literal elves and dwarves fighting but about traits of two opposing sides. Can overlap with Behemoth Battle if both fighters are giant-sized. Frequently the subject of a Hypothetical Fight Debate. |

11 follows suit with The Terminator, Spawn, The Joker, RoboCop, and Rambo. But it also offers an extra one: Shang Tsung is modeled after his movie appearance, and thus it spawns possible cool showdowns between any combination of Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa, Arnold Schwarzeneggernote "Possible" because the Terminator isn't voiced by Arnie himself, but Chris Cox — but on the other hand, the casting was a personal handpicking by Arnie himself and Cox manages to sound quite like Arnie, accent and all., Keith David, Richard Epcar, Peter Weller, and Sylvester Stallone. For added fun from the first MK movie, alternate skins for Raiden, Johnny Cage and Sonya Blade feature the voices of Christopher Lambert, Linden Ashby and Bridgette Wilson. | |

Homestuck has Bro (a katana-wielding badass who flies around on a rocket-powered surfboard) versus Jack Noir (a noir-themed Humanoid Abomination with godlike powers who also wields a katana and is part dog). The resulting battle is so awesome that it ends in a tie, with the two fighting to a standstill. Jack later gets the upper hand and kills Bro but only thanks to a well timed power-up gained from Becquerel prototyping himself. | |

In Bioshock Infinite, both the Founders as the Vox Populi make heavy use of Motorized Patriots, basically the 1912 variant of the Terminator, as Elite Mooks. There are times when you can summon one of the Founders to counter those of the Vox Populi, resulting in a giant motorized Abraham Lincoln (the Vox) and George Washington (the Founders) duking it out in the streets, spouting lines as "Blood... is the price... for liberty!" or "The Lord judges. I act." while emptying their miniguns at each other. The Burial at Sea DLC lets us pit the aforementioned Motorized Patriot against the mascot character of BioShock, the Big Daddy. The winner? Turns out a bunch of metal and plaster is no match for a gene-spliced cyborg with a drill hand. On the other hand, a Tear-summoned Samurai can hold out pretty well against Splicers. |

X-Men: About half the plots can be described as this. Mutants vs. Robots. Mutants vs. Aliens. Mutants vs. Dinosaurs. Mutants vs. Mythological Monsters. Mutants vs Demons. Lockheed is a one foot high purple alien dragon whose race is at war with the insectoid and parasitic Brood and who has often fought Sentinels and N'garai, so Alien Dragon vs Alien Giant Insects, Giant Robots and Demons. |

The Mount & Blade series shares much of the same appeal as mentioned in the Total War entry above, and while it's watered down a little since they're from Fantasy Counterpart Cultures, that's mitigated by the fact that the player can actively fight alongside them. Want to lead hordes of deadly steppe-raised horse archers against Viking-esque Sea Raiders (or vice-versa)? It's doable. The Sword of Damocles mod adds several new factions and some special mercenaries. What about the late Western Roman Empire versus Ottomans who worship a Lovecraftian entity, or pagan Scottish highlanders and Welsh longbowmen versus late-renaissance Venice borrowing cues from the Ancient Greeks? You can also have the Black Army of Hungary versus African tribesmen, or medieval Byzantium versus Samurai. It's awesome. |

In Shinji And Warhammer 40 K the Angels are more powerful and terrifying than in the TV series, and the Evangelions are more powerful (better trained pilots and NNHIS' additions). This makes for truly awesome fights. Sahaquiel is able to capture live nukes launched at him and drop parts of itself to the ground with those nukes inside -effectively nuking targets-, and Tokyo-3 answers with a N2 bomb-powered homing laser to defeat him). Rei vs. Kaworu's first fight deserves to be mentioned. Then Kaworu infects a massive fortress cradle with a living Angel and worms and uses to zombify parts of Tokyo-3 while deploying his own battle mechas based on Angelic biomatter and current technology to fight the Evas. Then Shinji arrives with his own army, composed of battle-hardened Chinese and Russian soldiers, psychic warriors highly skilled at killing Angelspawn, and the Terminatus Legio. The battle of Gotha (German soldiers and psykers vs all the horrors the Cradle throws at them) is 2 chapters of courageous soldiers armed with Bolt weaponry and psychoreactive lances vs dragons, Brutes, Angelspawn and a couple of mechasaurus. Asuka and Mayumi vs. Martin and Sarah is THE fight everyone was expecting (in-world, no less!). Then, at the same time and at the other side of the world, Shinji vs. Kaworu. |

Blood on the Hands of a Healer is the result of the storyline of Re:CREATORS taking place in the world of Kamen Rider Ex-Aid. It goes on to answer the question of what happens when Combat Medics clad in video game based Powered Armor have to deal with invading fictional characters from various mediums and genres of the In-Universe pop culture. So far, the fights have included: A Platform Game based Kamen Rider and a Fiery Redhead princess vs a Psychotic Smirking Musical Assassin whose Signature Move is Storm of Blades. The former duo later on take on a stereotypical Magical Girl who is very the Trope Codifier for Heart Is an Awesome Power, except now said Kamen Rider has a Power Fist via the power of Mecha Games. The resident First-Person Shooter based Kamen Rider who later dons on a Jet Pack with More Dakka through the power of a Shoot 'Em Up video game vs a Magic Knight with a Cool Horse who has Summon Magic Up to Eleven, which allows her to call upon a Badass Army. They later clash again when they team up with an RPG based Kamen Rider with a Cool Sword that can utilize fire and ice and a Super Cop with anti-gravity high-tech respectively. |

Batgirl (2009): Batgirl was once visited at college by Supergirl and, after deciding not to have a Slumber Party or pillow fight (Damn), the two of them went to see a cliched, over-acted, badly produced Dracula film. Unfortunately, elsewhere on campus a research project had gone other than planned and twenty-four Draculas leapt off the screen and began rampaging across the campus, forcing Batgirl and Supergirl to suit-up and stop them. It was Batgirl and Supergirl fighting twenty-four Draculas! | |

Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe should be a perfect example of this, pitting Midway's iconic Kombatants against DC's stable of legendary heroes, however, as Matt McMuscles points out in his Wha Happun? episode on Midway Games, this pretty much was a deconstruction as DC Comics stymied Midway by forcing them to not let their heroes take lives or even prevent showing their villains taking lives on screen. | |

Guilty Gear and BlazBlue. The former has pirates (in a raincoat or sailor-fuku), police (that're dressed in something like priest clothes), assassins, an American Ninja and a whole lot more. The latter has what is essentially the Joker as a Smooth Criminal, cat-people, cyborgs, vampires, a Mad Scientist, and more. And it gets taken Up to Eleven with BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle, which pits the casts of Blazblue, Persona 4: Arena, Under Night In-Birth and none other than the four heroines of RWBY against each other in a massive tag-team multiple universe clash! |

Baldur's Gate II: the mod Ascension changes the end fight for the expansion Throne of Bhaal. The final boss summons the soul of every other boss of the expansion to the max of his or her power, forcing the main character to fight again with terrible foes, earlier introduced as merciless generals that razed cities with bloodthirsty armies. All at once. Furthermore, the two main villains of Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn are resurrected as well (but with an option to convince one of them to turn side). One of the main companions of the protagonist is also forced to morph into a murderous out of control beast, that turns hostile and must be killed, unless the wave of other enemies is defeated in time. The main villain of Baldur's Gate I might come in as well as an enemy. | |

The whole point of the Capcom vs. games. X-Men vs. Street Fighter has Mutants vs. World Warriors. Marvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter has Mutants vs. World Warriors vs. Hulk vs. Spider-Man vs. Captain America vs. Shuma-Gorath vs. Blackheart. And then, Marvel vs. Capcom: Clash of the Superheroes went "LET'S GO CRAZY" and added to the mix an Artificial Human, (Mega Man) a Succubus, (Morrigan) a ninja (Strider Hiryu) a mecha warrior (Jin and Blodia) and a Symbiote (Venom) to the mix, aside of the already Badass Normal Captain Commando and War Machine. And then came Marvel vs. Capcom 2 and threw in, among other creatures, a Cat Girl, a mummy (Felicia, Anakaris) another Artificial Human with a mecha, a miniature robot, (Tron Bonne and a Servbot) a cactus-man (Amingo), and a pirate (Ruby Heart) who happens to be the main character of the game. The SNK crossovers had World Warriors vs. Orochi servants vs. sword masters vs. Aliens vs. school students vs. Succubus vs. Vampire vs. a demon... too bad that a lot of these fights are in separate games or can't co-exist at all. Tatsunoko vs. Capcom has Superheroes vs. World Warriors vs. a Humongous Mecha vs. a Ridiculously Human Robot vs. a photographer vs. a Maverick Hunter vs... Marvel vs. Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds upped the ante: World Warriors vs. Succubus, Catgirls and Chinese vampires vs. zombie killers vs. mutants vs. devils vs. physical gods vs. eldritch abominations vs. knights vs. Spider-Man vs. a humongous mecha vs... And then came Ultimate Marvel Vs Capcom 3, with B.O.W.s and Lawyers oh my! Street Fighter X Tekken is allows you play as fighters of the two series as well as an electric superhero, two anime cats, a robot, and Pac-Man with a wooden robot. |

Half-Life essentially boils down to a a crowbar wielding theoretical physicist and the rest of Black Mesa's security and science personnel vs The United States Marine Corps vs Black Ops agents vs one army of alien monsters vs another army of alien monsters, some of which are hinted at being Eldritch Abominations. Before the start of the series, there was an interdimensional war between a race of psychic Eldritch Abominations and a post-Singularity Multiversal Conqueror Empire. The Empire won. |

The Dresden Files: The whole series could be summed up as "pulp wizard-detective versus everything". Dead Beat has two awesome battles. One is a ninja ghoul versus Valkyrie security consultant. The other is Harry Dresden riding a zombified Tyrannosaurus rex into battle against necromancers and their zombie armies. Set to jaunty polka music. Turn Coat gives us a centuries old, superpowerful Magical Native American versus prehistoric, shapeshifting, mind breaking Eldritch Abomination. Changes has an epic battle involving three vampires, The Fair Folk, a Knight of the Cross or three, dozens of wizards (including the new Winter Knight and the Blackstaff), a Chinese guardian spirit, an entire army of Japanese kenku ninja-spirits, and Odin versus the entire Red Court of vampires, including the Red King, armies of half-vampire acolytes, and the Lords of the Outer Night, more or less Mayincatec gods, and South American mercenaries. The fight is ended by Harry blowing up a pyramid. Cold Days: Santa Claus and the Erkling versus Cthulhu's buddies. |

SCP Foundation: This one story which features a clash between SCP-682 and SCP-076-2 "Able". To wit, the former is a Nigh-Invulnerable shapeshifting monstrosity from another dimension, and the latter is basically magically-empowered Guts on crack. 076-2 comes very close to actually succeeding in killing the thing, but alas, he gets munched in half and killed. When he inevitably resurrects inside his tomb, he emerges and suggests that it was the best fight he's had in ages. The exploration logs for SCP-1730 culminates in a showdown between a gigantic leech Eldritch Abomination, the Gate Guardian, and SCP-2845, a veritable clash between gods. |

A Syfy Channel Original Movie courtesy of The Asylum: Mega Shark vs. Giant Octopus. There's also the sequels Mega Shark Vs Crocosaurus and Mega Shark Vs Mecha Shark, as well as the unrelated Mega Python Vs Gatoroid. Apparently, The Asylum has a thing for creature features when they're not busy ripping off currently popular movies. Mega Shark Vs Kolossus pits The Asylum's ever persistent ocean predator against a Humongous Mecha version of the Colossal Titan. |

Nextwave: The premise is Supers and their robot-supremacist robot fighting Pantsless Kaiju, Samurai Robots, Cannibal Drop Bears, laser eyebeam-shooting Stephen Hawking clones and much much more! Elsa Bloodstone fights samuroids (samurai androids) with a shovel, saying they're too cool for her to use guns on. Elsa is the Protagonist of the New Marvel Zombies series in Secret Wars where she adds fighting super powered Zombies to the list. Those buggers are disturbing her drinking tea. |

The backstory of Elden Ring revolves around The Shattering—a Forever War between the demigod children of Marika over the right to mend the Elden Ring. These include (but are not limited to): a Lady of War with Artificial Limbs that channels the power of an Eldritch Deity of Rot, a Four-Star Badass Magic Knight that waged war on the very concept of the stars (and won), a man that merged with a gargantuan world-eating serpent and carries the strength of every warrior he's consumed, and much, much, more! | |

The Dragon Doctors is about magical doctors of many different disciplines who have banded together, and they've fought against various equally unusual opponents. The docs themselves are a wizard (with healing and shapeshifting magic), a soldier/surgeon, a shaman/therapist, and a Magitek specialist. They've faced off against a horde of assassins, a serial killer who kills dreaming shamans, and Goro (the soldier/surgeon) is currently fending off an all-female Quirky Miniboss Squad consisting of a pistol-wielding shapeshifter, a mage in a ballcap, a female ogre and a lamia with a petrifying ray gun. | |

The Adventures of Dr. McNinja has had, in no particular order, ninjas and a doctor ninja versus... robots, clowns, a flying bodybuilder, a giant Paul Bunyan who was really a child, evil ninjas, pirates, ghosts, Mexican banditos on dinosaurs, vampires, zombies, a unicorn motorcycle, a ghost wizard, someone pretending to be a robot, ninja zombies, more robots, zombie Benjamin Franklin, Dracula (Dracula also had a robot Dracula), a Danish 80s action movie hero and his ninjas, clone ninjas, ghost wizards, Mayincatec robot temple guards, future dinosaurs from space, a vengeful space ghost that explodes people, a samurai demon, sky pirates, a luchador doctor, and a king on a dirtbike. At any given point, those enemies may have fought each other as well. One time invoked by Ron Wizard, who deduced that a single giant robot was not enough to produce the required awesomeness to summon his people from their world - so he created another giant robot to fight it. |

Broforce was always this, having characters from various movies fighting such things like giant robots or colossal helicopters, but it went Up to Eleven with Alien Infestation updates, which introduced a new fraction - tiny-veiled Xenomorphs. So, if you ever wondered how would heroes like the Bride, Machete, Rambo, Blade or RoboCop fare against Aliens, you will be very happy to find out. And then after the alien infestation is stopped, you get to literally storm Hell itself and go kick some demon ass. | |

Civilization pits planet Earth's most influential and powerful leaders against each other in a bid for global domination. The game presents such scenarios as Genghis Khan vs George Washington, Nebuchadnezzar II vs Emperor Napoleon, English longbowmen vs Roman legions, and Japanese samurai vs Viking raiders. Armies from across time clash on the battlefield, artists and musicians compete to make their nation the greatest, and powerful leaders like Mahatma Gandhi and Alexander the Great vie for the allegiance of other nations as they compete to see who can build the greatest empire on earth. | |

The central conflict of Fallout: New Vegas is basically the frontier-era US Army versus the Roman Legions versus an ersatz Howard Hughes and his army of killer robots, for control of Las Vegas which includes a casino run by the Rat Pack and a gang of Elvis Impersonators. Enter the One-Man Army (namely, you) either tipping the balance in favor of one of those sides, or beating them all and taking over for yourself. In Fallout 3, with the two groups retaining advanced military technology from the pre-war days: the Brotherhood of Steel and the Enclave. From the Mothership Zeta add-on in Fallout 3, you have both a cowboy and a samurai that can team up with you to take on a small army of aliens. Continuing the fine tradition started with New Vegas, Fallout 4 can potentially end with futuristic knights with a Cool Airship and an American Humongous Mecha giving the Curb-Stomp Battle of a lifetime to a cabal of Mad Scientists with their armies of Terminators. Or alternatively, you can smack down both of these two armies with your own army of American revolutionaries with wind-up laser muskets and old howitzers. The other main faction is a group of stealthy Underground Railroad types working to free enslaved synths from The Institute. |

Civilization: Beyond Earth does this with its Affinity system, which defines how your faction progresses "down" the "tech web" in order to adapt to the alien planet they're on, while building a Badass Army in the meantime: The Supremacy path is cybernetic augmentation up to Brain Uploading to become Transhuman. In the process they become an unholy fusion of Cybermen, Terminator and The Borg, with some insectoid motifs thrown in as well. The Harmony path is Bio Punk, Half-Human Hybrid development, Organic Technology, controlling local alien wildlife as combat steeds, and interfacing with the local Genius Loci. In short, they are the Na'vi mixed with Predator, or perhaps, more ominously, the Yuuzhan Vong. The Purity path is about not adapting; No Transhumanism is Allowed, Terraforming and big guns taking its place. With conservatism, isolationism, Sigil Spam and Roman stylistic influences in clothing as well as Diesel Punk-esque Hover Tanks with More Dakka and infantry in bulky Powered Armor (with big guns), do we have an early predecessor of the Imperium of Man here? Worse. They're not busy Doing in the Scientist. |

The Warcraft franchise has this in spades. The most obvious example would be the Alliance Versus the Horde. That's essentially humans, Night Elves, Dwarves, Gnomes, Draenei and Worgen versus Orcs, Forsaken, Tauren, Trolls, Blood Elves and Goblins. The entirety of The Frozen Throne is built around this: Maiev Shadowsong vs. Illidan Stormrage, Illidan, Kael'thas Sunstrider and Lady Vashj vs. Magtheridon and later Arthas Menethil, Sylvanas Windrunner vs. Arthas and the Dreadlords. |

It's a MOBA Massive Multiplayer Crossover from Blizzard's franchises like StarCraft, Warcraft, Diablo, Overwatch, and even to the classic games like the The Lost Vikings fighting together or against each other in different maps with unique objectives that can quickly and radically change the gameplay. For example, Jim Raynor, Thrall, Uther, Jaina Proudmoore and Tyrael can team up to fight against antagonists like Arthas the Lich King, Kerrigan the Queen of Blades and Diablo himself! Even Enemy Mine and Teeth-Clenched Teamwork are possibilities! What's not to like? |

The entire Fate Series franchise runs on this. Seven (sometimes eight) mages summon replicas of famous heroes from history and make them fight each other. Even during the early stages when most identities are unknown and fighters are trying to keep secrets, we have such amazing moments as Alexander the Great breaking up a stand-off between King Arthur, Gilgamesh and a mysterious Black Knight (Sir Lancelot) in Zero. Which eventually escalates to Gilgamesh in an Ancient Sumerian/Indian spaceship dogfighting against said Black Knight possessing an F-15 fighter jet while at the same time, King Arthur and Alexander the Great are fighting Cthulhu. Stay Night's various routes offer their own share of badass confrontations, often revolving around "who can stand up to Berserker Hercules?" with "who can survive against Gilgamesh?" afterwards. | |

Super Robot Wars is this trope. All anime of Super Robot Genre and Real Robot Genre that already run on this trope can now clash against one another and Original Generation villains, who are not to far behind. Better, we have bad guys forming alliances, fighting one another, heroes from different series doing combination attacks, good guys being caught in Mêlée à Trois between two evil fractions. | |

For many, the idea of the The World's Greatest Tag Team against The Kings of Wrestling was enough to justify purchasing Glory by Honor IX. Keep in mind this was the show where Tyler Black was going to leave the promotion with its World Championship if Roderick Strong didn't stop him. | |

Mortal Kombat: Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe should be a perfect example of this, pitting Midway's iconic Kombatants against DC's stable of legendary heroes, however, as Matt McMuscles points out in his Wha Happun? episode on Midway Games, this pretty much was a deconstruction as DC Comics stymied Midway by forcing them to not let their heroes take lives or even prevent showing their villains taking lives on screen. Mortal Kombat 9 and Mortal Kombat X include guest fighters into the mix. As if the main roster of characters weren't awesome enough, you can also have Freddy Krueger vs. Kratos and Jason Voorhees vs. the Predator. The DLC pack for Mortal Kombat X throws Leatherface and a Xenomorph into the mix, which means one can now recreate AVP: Alien vs. Predator and Jason vs. Leatherface in video game form. 11 follows suit with The Terminator, Spawn, The Joker, RoboCop, and Rambo. But it also offers an extra one: Shang Tsung is modeled after his movie appearance, and thus it spawns possible cool showdowns between any combination of Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa, Arnold Schwarzeneggernote "Possible" because the Terminator isn't voiced by Arnie himself, but Chris Cox — but on the other hand, the casting was a personal handpicking by Arnie himself and Cox manages to sound quite like Arnie, accent and all., Keith David, Richard Epcar, Peter Weller, and Sylvester Stallone. For added fun from the first MK movie, alternate skins for Raiden, Johnny Cage and Sonya Blade feature the voices of Christopher Lambert, Linden Ashby and Bridgette Wilson. |

Continuing the fine tradition started with New Vegas, Fallout 4 can potentially end with futuristic knights with a Cool Airship and an American Humongous Mecha giving the Curb-Stomp Battle of a lifetime to a cabal of Mad Scientists with their armies of Terminators. Or alternatively, you can smack down both of these two armies with your own army of American revolutionaries with wind-up laser muskets and old howitzers. The other main faction is a group of stealthy Underground Railroad types working to free enslaved synths from The Institute. | |

The Halo/Mass Effect crossover Guilty Sparks, which takes place during the (rather shaken up) events of Halo: Combat Evolved, sees several melee fights between Reaper Husks and Flood Combat Forms. It is exactly as awesome and terrifying as it sounds. It reaches its apex when the heroes catch a Reaper Husk specifically created for turning enemies into husks tries to huskify Flood Forms...only for the Flood-Husks to turn on them and prove even harder to fight. The sequels are sure to take it even farther. | |

Mass Effect centers around alien vs. robot fights. One of the coolest in-game combinations comes in 3, where the heroes summon a gigantic Thresher Maw (that is, gigantic by Thresher Maw standards) to fight a Reaper. The Thresher Maw wins. 3 also has references to a Reaper-aligned infantry vs. krogan cavalry battle. To elaborate: the Reaper infantry are murderous cyborg zombies who make the Borg of Star Trek seem gentle. Krogans are one of the most badass races in the galaxy, capable of enduring virtually any kind of punishment and surviving, whose idea of a coming of age ritual involves fighting their planet's most brutal wildlife, up to and including going five minutes in the ring with a Thresher Maw. Also, for this battle, they are riding cloned dinosaurs. That sound you just heard was your soul exploding from pure awesome. In the final battle hundreds of kilometer-long mecha-Cthulhu versus a fleet of thousands of cool starships representing basically the entire galaxy's combat forces. And that's just the space battle. |

Chasing Dragons gives us the battle of Narrow Run, in which a Dothraki ''khalasar'' of 11,000 bloodthirsty warriors is up against an army half its size made up of Westerosi knights, longbowmen from the Reach and the Stormlands and the Iron Legion, which is 90% composed of newly freed slaves trained by Westerosi sergeants in spear, short sword, shield and crossbow. Their hatred and anger toward their former captors combined with military training has turned them into very formidable soldiers. They are led by Ned Stark and Brynden Tully. The battle lasts all day, with the bodies piled for miles around. | |

Monster Hunter: World: The game introduces a "Turf War" mechanic, wherein two monsters who happen to meet while wandering around the map may engage in a brief but brutal fight for supremacy. This leads to such fights as Anjanath (a fire breathing T-rex) manhandling giant lizards in its jaws... but getting manhandled in turn by Rathalos (a fire-breathing wyvern), who proves exactly why it's the apex predator of the area. This even includes Elder Dragons fighting each other in certain maps. The first major update to World brought with it Deviljho, a Memetic Badass monster known for its extreme aggression and strength. Sure enough, it gets into Turf Wars with most of the major monsters... most of whom it utterly devastates, including the supposed apex predators. But this trope really comes into play when it meets World's own Memetic Badass, Bazelgeuse, who proves to be the one monster capable of fighting Deviljho to a draw. And then the Iceborne expansion upped the ante by reintroducing the Savage Deviljho, who's even better at beating the snot out of almost everything else than its vanilla variant (except against Bazelgeuse and their Seething variant, same as before.) |

The spin-off Red Alert series takes the Rule of Cool and turns it Up to Eleven. For the third game, you have a three-way battle between: The Allies, a United Nations expy with shotgun-toting riot-police troopers, machine-gun armed hovercraft, huge fleets of bombers and attack aircraft, battleships that can turn to mobile land-fortresses, gunships armed with freeze-rays, trained attack-dolphins, and more. The Soviet Union, with longcoat-suited conscripts, armored war bears, heavy troopers with lightning guns, armoured juggernauts the size of houses, zeppelin bombers, and molotov-cocktail-throwing biker troops. The Empire of the Rising Sun, with samurai foot-soldiers with laser-katanas, ninjas, hyperactive teenage girls in flying rocket suits, a girl with psychic powers, and more mecha than you can shake a stick at. |

Spike's show Deadliest Warrior seems to be all about this trope. Although they did skirt the obvious by having the pirate fight a knight and the ninja fight a Spartan, likely to avoid trolling. The guy who programs the simulations actually said that they were avoiding it because no one would agree on the right way to test it, and no one on the losing side would accept the result anyway. A similar concept was used a couple of times on the teen show Dude, What Would Happen?, albeit with cheap prop duels rather than computer simulations. Once they even did "Vikings vs. Pirates", meaning northmen pirates against Caribbean pirates. |

The Elder Scrolls: In Lord Vivec's Sword-Meeting With Cyrus the Restless, the Tribunal deity Vivec, of Morrowind fame, clashes with Cyrus the Restless, hero of the spinoff game The Elder Scrolls Adventures: Redguard. In it, Cyrus claims he can use the Pankratosword in order to get Vivec to hand over a valuable treasure. It's a bluff, but it works. Upping the "coolness" factor is that Cyrus is said to be an incarnation of the HoonDing, the Redguard/Yokudan "Make Way" god, making this god vs. god as well. Even within Redguard itself, Cyrus slays a dragon, defeats a Sload necromancer, and matches wits with a Daedric Prince. In the backstory, the Sack of Alinor, the final battle in the Tiber Wars, pitted armies of Altmeri Magic Knights against Tiber Septim's Roman-style Imperial Legions and an ancient Dwemer Humongous Mecha powered by the soul of a "dead" god which warps reality merely by being activated. As you might have guessed, the Altmer did not win. Skyrim: The Civil War sub-plot boils down to The Roman Empire vs. Horny Vikings. The player can become a vampire or werewolf, and you fight dragons. There's also ninja assassins, wizards, demons, shadowy goblin-like elves, evil Nazi elves, and giant dwarven robots. You can even fight mammoths, saber-toothed cats, and giants! |

The Godzilla franchise mostly deals with the titled mutant dinosaur himself fighting off other giant monsters and super weapons such as other giant mutant dinosaurs, bugs, dragons, gods, space monsters, robots and cyborgs. King Kong vs. Godzilla, one of the most iconic examples of this, actually stemmed from a concept for a King Kong sequel that was suggested by Willis O'Brien but unfortunately never came to be: King Kong fighting a monster created by Dr. Frankenstein. Godzilla vs. Kong has the basic premise of the above, with state of the art modern special effects and a Shared Universe (the MonsterVerse) to build up towards the showdown. The whole MonsterVerse qualifies really, but GvK plays up the trope the most. And that's without getting into them eventually teaming up to fight a King Ghidorah-powered Mechagodzilla. |

Some of novels that tie to Ravenloft setting take advantage of the setting's ability to drag anyone from any Dungeons & Dragons worlds into it to set up a fight between Classical Movie Vampire Strahd Von Zarovich and other iconic villains of the franchise. In Knight of the Black Rose it's the undead Lord Soth from Dragonlance and in I, Strahd: The War Against Azalin it's a lich overlord Azalin Rex from Greyhawk. | |

Game of Thrones definitely doesn't start out like this—its conflicts are more often between frighteningly amoral sociopaths and likable noble heroes who can die at a moment's notice—but the finale of Season 6 seems to confirm that the final conflict is headed this way. On one side, there's Daenerys Targaryen, her trio of loyal dragons, and her charismatic wise-cracking dwarf advisor Tyrion Lannister, who are all poised to return to Westeros to reclaim the Iron Throne for Dany. On the other side, there's Jon Snow, the Lord Commander of the Night's Watch who singlehandedly led his Ragtag Bunch of Misfits companions against giants, barbarians, mammoths and ice zombies, and has just been revealed as a secret Warrior Prince, and one of Dany's strongest rivals for the Iron Throne. Jon and Daenerys actually form an alliance, but Daenerys does end up fighting the White Walkers with her dragons, so this trope still applies. |

Godzilla vs. Kong has the basic premise of the above, with state of the art modern special effects and a Shared Universe (the MonsterVerse) to build up towards the showdown.

Warhammer 40,000 is basically the setting for an epic scale Guilt-Free Extermination War between: Powered Armor-clad, medieval Super Soldiers wielding automatic rocket launchers and chainswords. Hyper-advanced psychic vaguely-Celtic martial-artist space elves. Murderously psychotic, scantily-clad space evil-elf vampire Space Pirates. Phonetically-challenged, fight-happy green-skinned and hyper-muscled British Football Hooligans. The Legions of Hell with spiky evil versions of the above Super Soldiers. Unkillable Egyptian zombie robots. All-consuming alien bugs. Mini-Mecha-piloting Japanese Space Communists Catholic space Nazi commissars leading regular humans in a Soviet military-expy, with really, really nice tanks (and hats). Hell. When an army of Badass Normal (usually) trained from birth in the worst conditions with near unlimited number equipped with ballistic-proof flak vests and limb-cutting long-ranged semi-automatic laser rifles are the absolute worst army in the setting, you know your setting is metal. |

Armies of Greek hoplites backed up by centaurs and minotaur heavies, up against Egyptian footsoldiers with sphinxes, mummies and giant scarab beetles, taking on Viking warriors fighting alongside trolls, valkyries and wolves. The expansion adds Atlantis as a civilization, and the Titans; massive super-units capable of devastating whole armies single-handedly note The Greeks get the three-headed dog Cerberus, the Egyptians get the god of vengeance Horus, the Norse get the gigantic frost giant Ymir, and the Atlanteans get Chthonian, a lava giant covered by crystals spikes sprouting from various parts of its body.. | |

One of the main attractions of the Total War series, especially Rome, Medieval and Empire. In a historical-based Real Time Strategy game, irregular wars that never historically happened do break out with alarming frequency. Spanish conquistadors holding the line against Mongolian horse-archer raiders? That can happen. The Independence-era United States attempting to conquer, or being conquered by, the peoples of the Indian subcontinent? Can happen. Viking warriors invading Aztec Mesoamerica? Possible. Carthage conquering Rome and moving north to fight the Celts? Plausible. Scottish highlanders storming Cairo? ... Has been done already, but the point still stands. The popular Medieval II: Total War mod Thera is a bigger example of this, as it adds a number of Fantasy Counterpart Cultures to a Low Fantasy setting. Celts? Pirates? Samurai? Orcs? Medieval Transylvania? One gets the feeling the mod was pretty much designed with this trope in mind. Total War: Warhammer and its sequel, meanwhile, take this to a whole new level. |

Hilariously lampooned in New Warriors, where the titular team was captured by a trio of highly sentient primates (a gorilla, a baboon, and an orangutan). Speedball, who had spent most of the previous few issues bothering his teammates with questions like would a shark be able to beat a crocodile, immediately begins asking the gorilla and the baboon who, in their opinion, would win in fights between a hyena and a leopard, a bear versus a rhino, etc. Both the apes are in complete agreement over who the victor in each fight would be, although they make a point of informing Speedball that such scenarios could never happen in real life. Finally, Speedball asks who would win in a fight between a gorilla and a baboon. The gorilla insists that the gorilla would win, the baboon insists that it would be the baboon. Both of them immediately begin fighting, giving the New Warriors the opportunity they need to escape, which was Speedball's plan all along. | |

The Supervillainy Saga by C.T. Phipps more or less runs on this trope. Gary Karkofsky aka Merciless the Supervillain Without Mercy battles against a Silver Age set of villains, a Nineties Antihero Team, a Superman Substitute as well as the Justice League, a xenomorph, a Biblical Nephilim kaiju, and an Expy for Lex Luthor. This is notably, all in the first book. It's more more or less a celebration of the bizarre and incredibly convoluted continuity of comic books as well as how they can throw everything and the kitchen sink into a storyline. | |

Prehistoric Park had two of these occur in the final episode, capable of happening only because of time travel. Resident T-Rex Matilda vs resident woolly mammoth Martha. Matilda later got snapped at by a Deinosuchus, a 50-foot dinosaur-eating crocodile, and off-screen likely attempted to eat a woolly rhino and Phorusrhacos, the 10 foot tall flesh eating bird. | |

Jurassic Park: Jurassic Park (1993) has the Tyrannosaurus rex vs. the particularly large, aggressive and ruthless Velociraptor known as The Big One. The Big One doesn't make it. Jurassic Park III has a T. rex vs. a Spinosaurus. Jurassic World features that same Tyrannosaurus joined by Blue the Velociraptor to fight the abomination Indominus rex plus a final blow by the sea lizard Mosasaurus to said abomination. There's also Indominus Rex vs. Ankylosaurus. Poor Anky only lasts a few seconds. Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom pits Blue against the Indoraptor, a smaller, nastier, more sadistic version of the Indominus rex. Blue wins. |

Oh, and they all worship a Thor expy, and their priests are bald, hammer-brandishing Badass Preachers. War-loving, bearded, massively built, demon-worshipping Viking barbarians. Backstabbing, murder-and-rape-happy, Velociraptor-riding elf pirates led by scantily-clad and good-looking sorceresses. Magitek, Steampunk, Nazi Rat-people. British soccer hooligan Orcs and cowardly, Butt-Monkey goblins. |

In Dragon Ball every single fight is this trope, very early in the series it was humans vs monsters with a few robots thrown in and then it's Martial artists vs Demons. In the next series we got aliens get involved and it turns out main hero Goku was alien all along and then we got androids and a big green bug man made of the cells of our heroes the "Z-fighters". finally in the last sagas wizards, Demon Kings, bubble gum-monsters and Gods show up but by now the Z-fighters have learned to take this stuff as normal. | |

Pokémon: The Series often gets by with this, especially whenever the Olympus Mons make the scene. The movies in particular are all about showcasing massive battles between some of the most powerful creatures from the games, whatever the rest of the plot might be about. One movie makes a point of advertising that fan-favorite legendary Mewtwo shows up to face the then-last Pokémon, Genesect* though it's not the Mewtwo everyone likes, which may significantly diminish the appeal depending on your stance, while another brings in damn near every single legendary Pokémon. Not that the regular anime doesn't indulge in this a bit. The mainline anime series has had, via the mons battling in major battles, Cannon Turtles vs Fire Breathing Dragons, Fire Birdmen Kickboxers vs Fire Breathing Dragons, Persian Ice Birds vs Fire Breathing Dragons, Super Saiyan Fire Monkeys vs Raijins, Gangster Crocodiles in Shades vs Berserk Dragons, Frog Ninjas vs Abominable Snowmen, Frog Ninjas vs Grass Dinosaur-Dragons, Frog Ninjas vs Super Mode Fire Breathing Dragons, Giant Bug Samurai vs Magical Mermaid Seals, Animalistic Homunculi vs Metal Slime Gestalts, Werewolves vs Wolf-Werewolf Hybrids, Island Guardian Deities versus Extraterrestrial Dragon Wasps, and Superpowered Magical Jackal Warriors versus Titanic Four-armed Colossal Giants. And those are just some of the coolest and most awesome sounding things without context. |

When the right kind of deck is in play in Yu-Gi-Oh, this can end up in effect. However one of the most memetic examples originated from the 5D's series, where you had Mystical Dragons powered by Mesoamerican mythology (supported by decks of demons, bird people, robots, and scrappy warriors) vs Norse Gods and decks based on their entire mythology. As the M.C put it in the dub: Dragons! Gods! DRAGONS VERSUS GODS! | |

Sonic the Hedgehog/Mega Man: Worlds Collide is a Crossover comic between Sonic the Hedgehog (Archie Comics) and Mega Man (Archie Comics), first pitting the titular heroes against each other, then against Doctors Eggman and Wily as they fight to prevent the two mad scientists from rewriting their realities. The sequel ups the ante by throwing in Sonic Boom, Mega Man X, and about a dozen other Capcom and Sega franchises, and it opens with a roboticized/brainwashed Sonic and Mega Man trouncing each other's allies and then fighting each other again. | |

The season 5 premier of Buffy the Vampire Slayer gives us "Buffy vs Dracula". The King of Vampires is shown to be a true threat, master manipulator, seducer, with Buffy standing in as his long lost love. Then subverted in Dracula being a bit of a fop, easily comparable to Angel in slipping from a dour serious early season 1 style to some of the more funny and wacky hijinks of his own series. | |

Changes has an epic battle involving three vampires, The Fair Folk, a Knight of the Cross or three, dozens of wizards (including the new Winter Knight and the Blackstaff), a Chinese guardian spirit, an entire army of Japanese kenku ninja-spirits, and Odin versus the entire Red Court of vampires, including the Red King, armies of half-vampire acolytes, and the Lords of the Outer Night, more or less Mayincatec gods, and South American mercenaries. The fight is ended by Harry blowing up a pyramid. | |

Thanks to her Battle Aura, she's a One-Woman Army who can smash through whole squads of Ork Boyz and Chaos Cultists with ease.

The cult British series Primeval is about Brits versus an assortment of dangerous animals from throught tome, but also had a very vicious and memorable battle between a prehistoric Gorgonopsid and a lightning-fast and lethal Predator from the future that evolved from bats. The Gorgonopsid kills the Future Predator by grabbing its arm in its massive jaws and flipping on its back, crushing the creature under its sheer size and weight, then it gives a triumphant roar and carries the Predator's limp body away to eat it. Badass. | |

Fate/Zero Sense replaces all the servants except Saber with various anime characters and Deadpool, so this becomes a regular occurrence. Examples include Deadpool almost defeating Saber with Monty Python References, Gurren Lagann vs Eva Unit-01, Sasuke's Susano'o vs Grimmjow's Gran Rey Cero, more Monty Python references, Vash's Angel Arm vs Saber's Excalibur Angel Arm wins, Grimmjow in Resurrection vs ALL OF TEAM DAI-GURREN, Gurren Lagann vs Eva Unit-01 rematch. Gurren Lagann wins although Rider dies from his wounds. And finally, MORE MONTY PYTHON REFERENCES. The "Holy Shit!" Quotient was surpassed at the first Monty Python reference. Yeah, it's that kind of fic, and it got moreso in the sequel. Heck, it practically inspired the Cool Vs. Awesome Fate/stay night fanfic series. The most famous of which, Fate: Zero Sanity (which leaves the three kings of Fate/Zero canon to fight various anime characters) is no slouch in delivering, from Rider unleashing Ionian Hetairoi against Alucard's unleashed undead army with every other Servant joining together to help, Whitebeard dueling Alucard to the death during that same battle]], Saber and Maka Albarn vs. Alucard and later a serious Gilgamesh, Rinnegan Obito vs. Lightning-Flame Dragon Natsu and Black Blood Maka. The "Holy Shit!" Quotient only got bigger in the sequel with 15 Servants. |

Hellsing. The good guy are the titular Hellsing agency of Vampire Hunters who are led by a Lady of War and use a Battle Butler with Razor Floss, a company of Private Military Contractors, a Friendly Neighborhood Vampire police officer girl who uses a BFG and the Dracula who became a Humanoid Abomination. They fight against Sturmbann Millenium - a lost SS battalion of artificial half-vampire Nazi veteran Super Soldiers whose leader is a Colonel Kilgore cyborg and chiefs of staff are a Herr Doktor, a One-Man Army werewolf, a Master of Illusion witch and a Friendly Sniper magical sharpshooter girl. And the third side of the conflict are Church Militant fundamentalist Catholics with a genetically modified Vampire Hunter priest complete with katana-wielding nuns! It's as awesome as it sounds. | |

Deadpool tended towards this for a while, especially after he teamed up with his own zombie-universe severed head to fight dinosaurs, some of which became zombies, and then later were infected by the Venom symbiote. He also helped a superhero trucker fight alien raccoons, and helped Hercules solve a labyrinth created by Arcade, who was hired by a demon. | |

Super Smash Bros. Come on, seriously, intergalactic bounty hunters, super soldiers with IQ's of 180, and space mercenaries couldn't possibly get together without invoking this. Super Smash Bros. Brawl finally lets fans of the "16-bit" generation of consoles pit Mario and Sonic against each other. The 3DS and Wii U iterations have paved the way for a full-on cross-company battle royale: Sonic returns, and is joined by Capcom's Mega Man and Namco's Pac-Man! And that's before even delving into the possibilities Mii Fighters open up. Ryu, Cloud and Bayonetta as Downloadable Content ante up this aspect. It also has a Goddess, an Angel, an Electric Mouse, a dragon, a princess using magic, a dark magician, a dinosaur, an adorable Eldritch Abomination who looks like a balloon, an alien swordfighter, a penguin with a giant hammer, a giant fire-breathing turtle and the world's most famous plumber. Super Smash Bros. Ultimate adds all of the above and throws in squid kids, an evil space dragon, a fat crocodile king, a pair of vampire hunters, a wrestling cat, and a piranha plant. |
