*sigh* And to think I thought the fact that most users here just finished Ryuki wouldn't effect their vote... :(

I like Ryuki, but judging on powers I have to give this to Agito.

How so? They actually had a straight up fight and Ryuga LOST miserably.

Less people have seen Agito and Kuuga compared to the later shows. A lot of this is probably because TV-Nihon was the only real source for fansubs for a long time and they've barely touched those two. For Agito you have to track down the Cruel Angel subs and Kuuga was only fully subbed a couple of years ago. They also tend to look a lot less flashy and modern compared to the later Heisei shows, which also kind of hurts their appeal.

The fact that they haven't seen the show doesn't mean they can ignore Agito's distinct advantage. At least two votes were given to Ryuki just because the voters "haven't seen Agito." I've never really been a fan of when these things turn into popularity contests(looking at you, Skull). Though I'll admit, I've seen polls more wrongfully one-sided before.

You mean like the battle between Skull, Super-1 and Amazon? Or the battle between all those movie riders and Skull came out on top? I'll admit that W is one of my favorite series, but that is seriously ridiculous when they vote for their favorite character, just because they were cool -____-

Skull, Super-1, and Amazon. I don't really care about movie riders. :lol

Sure Skull has a badass fedora, but Super-1 is a Shaolin Master and Amazon is a guy who rips his opponents apart. People always seem to forget that -__-

Caucasus and Agito lost to Diend (That match made me lose all hope for these battles).
Super-1 lost to Fourze.
Kabuto lost to Decade.
Skull beat Amazon and Super-1.

The obvious trend is that the more current rider tends to get the upper hand, especially when it's anyone post-Decade vs anyone pre-Decade.

And Showa Riders lose out every time.

I think Ichigo won once... Against Nedishiko. :cry

Haven't I been saying this since, you know, ever?

Bahaha. That's great.

Yes, but Double and Kiva lost to Kuuga (despite my campaigns supporting Double and his RAINBOWS. OF. DEATH.)

Kuuga is the exception to the rule because apparently he can kick and destroy universes or something.

Yep. But if it literally didn't happen in any media it doesn't count.

This is something I stated, yes. So I took that detail out of his facts list, and didn't add Dark Kiva's "self-destruct, destroy everything" finisher

That's kinda why I said it. :thumb:

That doesn't matter, considering all the "Didn't see [X]'s show, so I didn't vote for him" posts, it pretty much means that they're not reading the facts, or not entirely.

Kuuga's Kick of OP BS is so ingrained that he's gonna slide by in the tournament using that.
In fact, he did just that :P

Wonder how he'll be against OOO or Decade during the "Rider of The Year" tournament in December :lol

DiEnd will win. :lol

Call that power non-canon all you want, Kuuga can still do this:

And Ultimate is two levels above that.

And then it extends to the mentality factor.
Having the power and the willingness to use are 2 different things.

Really, any time Kuuga or Decade is involved, it's obvious who would win, which is why the only one I can't predict is the end of the year vote.

God I love the 'Come at me bro!' pose that Grongi ( Gurongi ?? ) does.

I suppose I'll speak up, since I have said 'I haven't seen X's show'. Personally, no matter how much you tell me a Rider can do, unless I've seen it for myself it's all "Cool story bro" to me. It's hard for me to vote for a Rider which I never seen in action versus a Rider I have seen in action and know what they are capable of(though I won't let that rule my judgment all the time, as I voted for Kuuga when he was facing Skull because I knew Skull realistically couldn't last in the battle).

This battle though, I felt Agito didn't belong in. I always hear he's dragon based, but I can't help but see him as a beetle. So I was going to vote for either Ryuki or Ryuga. And if Shinji beats the dude who Rider Kicked "God", more power to him cause I'm the only one who voted for his evil twin :lol.

I still need to watch Agito but based on the description I'm voting for him. He has just as much variety with his forms as Ryuki does with his Vents, and Ryuga's inability to last in this world that long is a fatal weakness in my opinion.

Well that, and Ryuki already killed him once :lol

True :lol Though if this is a free for all between all 3 at once I can see Ryuga beating Ryuki.

Ryuki currently has 11! Agito currently has 10! Ryuga has one. Get your votes in now before midnight! :D

Oh for god's sake. Ryuki can not win against Agito. There's just no way. KamenriderOOO, you need to break the tie. Ryuga isn't even a factor here. I love Ryuki to death, love the rider, love the show. But the fact is he is just ridiculously under powered when compared to Agito.

Whoa. When did it get into a tie? :lol Well, that being said, if it still is a tie by tomorrow, I'll cast my vote. With all the ones from battles 11-20, I've been trying to avoid voting to see everybody else's opinions. But I'll vote if there is a tie by tomorrow

...

*sneaks away*

Don't look at meeeee.

Ryuki's actually pretty low-tier for main Riders in general. His powers are nicely balanced, but he doesn't have one area where he's really overpowering. Shinji himself isn't an especially good fighter, either, so he can't really make the most of his arsenal. I do love the guy, but in an all-out Rider vs. Rider fight he's not going to last that long, especially not against a powerhouse like Agito.

Kuuga: slaughtering who-knows how-many-people in a nuclear firestorm before making some kind of vegetable food.

In fairness, it was probably a really good some kind of vegetable food.

And moving onto the tournament is Agito!

Kamen Rider Similarities Battle Round 24: Roots of The King
 

This battle will be special and a one time only thing, it's between a stepbrother and a half brother; one a Rider-like entity and the other son of the winner of battle 21-

Century King Shadow Moon (Kamen Rider Black/Black RX, 1987-1989

VS

Kamen Rider Saga (Kamen Rider Kiva, 2008)

That's right, this will be the only time that a rider-like entity will be allowed in the tournament, and now, let's see those stats!

Shadow Moon:

• Transforms via the KingStone belt, which holds his "Stone of the Moon"
• Wields the Satan Sabre, a long powerful sword
• Wields the Shadow Sabers, twin long swords
• Can use the same attacks as Black
• Weakness: Stone of the Moon can be shattered.

Saga:

• Transforms via the Sagarc Belt
• Wields the Jacorder an item that is inserted into Sagarc to evoke the transformation into Saga. In battle, it has two modes, the rapier-like Rod Mode and the whip-like Bute Mode. After using the Wake Up Fuestle, Saga turns day into crescent moon night as he executes his Snaking Death-Break (ス attack with the destructive power of the Jacorder's two modes, piercing the target with Rod Mode before jumping through the Kiva insignia formed in midair to hang the target using the Bute Mode until it is destroyed.
• Can summon a giant feathered serpent called Kukulkan or multiple giant Sagarc under a larger Mother Sagarc
• Can use the King Tattoo on his hand to destroy Fangires.
• Weakness: As a Fangire himself, he has a chance of being shattered, tends to be over confident.

This battle closes Thursday! If I'm missing any facts for ShadowMoon, let me know


Hint to next battle: Matrixbeast would love title of this

well im gonna go with shadow moon on this one, you know saga had to suck if they made taiga get rid of it.

i going with shadow moon also due to he is more able to protec his weakness from fighting any thing
