I'm going to have to vote for Accel. He reminds me of Ixa in a way, fighting for the wrong reasons /at first/, but then "becomes human" as the expression goes, or whatever. Accel also has speed over Kiva even in Garulu form.

So far Kiva's in the lead by double!

I think I'm going to give this one to Accel. He took out the Terror Dopant Dragon using only the AccelTurbuler, so I wouldn't think that Castle Doran poses any more of a threat. Beyond that, Kiva's got Emperor Form, but I'm thinking Accel's normal form is just about bulky enough to take on Emperor Kiva in normal sword fighting. The only think that I'm wondering about is how Trial would hold up if Kiva were to resort to Garulu's berserk animal style.
Note that I'm mostly just voting Accel because he's dreadfully annoying to take on in Climax Heroes.

i choose Accel, because haven't seen Kiva yet :D

I voted for Kiba. If he cannot overpower Accel he can drive him away with his moppiness.

Plus he's a vampire that doesn't sparkle in the sun.

No, he just sulks in the tub.

Kiva moves onto the tournament!

Kamen Rider Similarities Battle Round 14: Stag Beetle Smackdown!
 

This battle observes Riders with a stag beetle motif-

Kamen Rider Kuuga (2000)

VS

Kamen Rider Garren (Kamen Rider Blade, 2004)

VS

Kamen Rider Gatack (Kamen Rider Kabuto, 2006)

And now for some facts
Kuuga:

• Wears the Arcle, giving him access to 14 different forms. The belt also has fused with him, making it impossible to remove from him without killing him.
• His 4 standard forms are Mighty, Dragon, Pegasus and Titan.
• Mighty is a balanced fighter.
• Dragon is an azure form that allows Kuuga to be more agile and quicker, although his physical strength is lower than Mighty Form, Dragon Form enables Kuuga to and jump quickly in order to pursue the enemy. However, it also gives Kuuga less protection, yet being better suited for quick movements and more jump power. To make up for the lack of strength, he uses the Dragon Rod staff as his weapon, created by using any pole or stick-like object to manifest it. His finishing move in this form is Splash Dragon, an aerial thrust attack to the torso.
• Pegasus is a green shooting form where Kuuga's senses are heightened to extreme, superhuman levels, enabling him to see, hit and hear his opponents with deadly precision. It also allows Kuuga to detect the enemy's position, despite whatever ability they may have to avoid detection. The downside to this is that it can not be sustained for too long because of the enormous strain placed on the nervous system from over stimulation (only 50 seconds), and if Kuuga exceeds this limit, he shall be knocked back into Growing Form and become unable to transform for two hours. Kuuga uses the Pegasus Bowgun- a crossbow/gun hybrid weapon that can be created out of any gun-like object, commonly Ichijo's hand gun. His finishing move with the bow gun is "Blast Pegasus", an arrow shot from the bowgun after pulling the hammer back to the fullest length.
• Titan is a purple herculean form where his defense is greatly increased, allowing him to withstand most of his opponents' attacks long enough to get in close range, despite sacrificing speed. This form has much larger armor that is mainly silver with large purple trims. Although this armor provides superior protection, it still leaves parts of his body exposed, thus making him still suspectible to damage. He uses the Titan Sword that can be created out of pole or stick-like objects, normally the control handle of his bike. His finishing move is "Calamity Titan", a powerful sword thrust wherein Kuuga twists the blade as it is impaled.
• Each of those forms can be further enhanced into Rising forms, adding golden trim and enhancing their weapons.
• Can turn into Amazing Mighty Form, giving him a lot more power.
• Most Powerful Form: Ultimate.
• His most dangerous form, Ultimate Form combines all the powers of the other forms, Ultmate Kuuga has a much different design colored black with gold (and a little silver) trims all over his body, as well as having five horns on the headcrest, a black belt core and spiky-looking armor. Originally a risk is that the user would lose control and become like Daguba, a monster bent on killing everything in its way. However, due to Godai's gentle nature, he retains his will as he uses the new form against Daguba, retaining the red eye color of Mighty Form as opposed to the original black eyed color. When in battle, Ultimate Kuuga is able to see a monster's human form, every single attack from Kuuga Ultimate causes his opponent to bleed, despite the enemy's powerful armor.
  This form can also utilize the same powers as Daguba including Pyrokinesis, along with the ability to utilize the Dragon Rod, Pegasus Bowgun, and Titan Sword, all in Rising form. However this ability was never shown along with the Ultimate Form's most powerful attack, the "Ultimate Kick," which is the strongest version of his Rider Kick, easily capable of destroying the entire world.
• Is assisted by the Gouram, which can combine with his motorcycle, the BeatChaser 2000, which can become the BeatGouram. The Gouram can attack opponents too.
• Weaknesses- His kindhearted nature may cause him to hold back against opponents. If he is seriously injured, he will turn into Growing Form and not be able to transform for two hours.

Garren:

• When he henshins, his belt produces a transformation screen that can deflect assaults.
• Wields the Garren Rouzer, Garren’s primary armament; a hi-tech gun which serves as a weapon for combat and storage unit for Rouse Cards, including Proper Blanks. It has a built-in 'rousing' technology, which enables Garren to "rouse" the sealed Undead's power to utilize personally. After activating Jack Form, the Garren Rouser gains an enhancement in the form of a blade forming on the barrel to be let the weapon be used for close-range attacks
• Garren Absorber- A special accessory developed by Kei Karasuma to bolster the Rider’s capabilities. The Rouse Absorber was designed to be a supplementary Rouse device to Rider System and specialized container for the top category Rouse Cards. Its system was designed to harness the J: "Fusion Peacock" and Q: "Absorb Serpent" Rouse Cards and is only compatible with those cards. Initiating either Jack Form, modifies the Rouser Absorber with a signature diamond-peacock plaque. Though the Rouse Absorber is dubbed Garren Absorber henceforth, the modification, in either case, proves more cosmetic if anything.
• Rides the Red Rhombus- a motorbike developed by B.O.A.R.D. specifically designed to the aspects of Garren's Rider System
• Wields multiple Rouse Cards
• As Jack Form, he can fly
• Weakness: His cards are necessary for his powers.

Gatack:

• The Gatack Zecter can attack others before henshin
• In Masked form, he has shoulder guns that can mow down any opponent that gets in his way
• Can “Cast Off,” blasting off his Masked Form’s armor to assume Rider Form. He can then clock up, travelling at near-light speeds. He also wields the Gatack Double Caliber, two horn-like swords.
• Can utilize hyper clock up by using the Hyper Zecter, turning into Gatack Hyper.
• Rides the Gatack Extender, able to shift from its motorcycle like Masked Mode to its hover-board like EX Mode. The Gatack extender can also attack opponents for Gatack.
• Weakness: Gatack Zecter is needed to transform. Is hot blooded and will act without thinking at times.

Which Stag Beetle Rider is supreme? This battle closes Friday!

It's between Kuuga and Gatack for me. I'm wondering how Pegasus form would hold up to Clock Up. Oh, the questions that Decade should have answered for us.
I'm thinking Kuuga. He's just generally a better fighter.

I have no idea where you got this from, but it's not true.

I went with Kuuga. He's arguably the most powerful Rider of all time and could easily mop the floor with Garren. We've also seen Pegasus form deal with hyper fast characters before so Gatack can't rely on Clock Up, especially if Yusuke uses the Rising version.
