This guy knows exactly whats goin on.

And you all thought I was crazy for hating on Gokai and Decade...

Oh come off it. I'll actually say that W can counter all of Kiva's forms with his own. Default/CJ, Garulu/HM, Bashaa/LT, Dogga/FJ & Emperor/CJX. And the main thing that nabs this in the bag for W is, again, CJX can find your weakness & shoot a rainbow at it.

How is Kiva winning this, exactly.

Can't ever bring myself to vote for the worst Heisei Rider. Going with W on this.

Here is the thing...of the modern Riders, W is one of the weakest on the power level period. He has style, he has personality, and he can beat his villians. He is on the same power as black or less. Skull is the same...they are like Captain America or Batman. Actually at least Captain A has his sheild, W has almost no defense unless he brings out the tank...hell is is the only rider that NEEDS a tank come to think about it...anyway...he can keep up with the others, but straight up arm wrestling, sorry, not going to happen. ONLY way I could see W winning...Philip sends Fang to fetch dad's violin and threatens to break it unless Kiva surrenders.
After that, Kiva over powers.

But Philip does have the intellectual capacity to do so, considering all of the the knowledge on Earth is stored within his mind. Furthermore,
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lKf-rWiY-7E.

Double, therefore, is not that under-powered.

The only way that W wins this is based solely on misplaced fan love. He DOES NOT have the power to beat Kiva. End of story. W can counter his forms? Hell no. Kiva has so many advantages I dont even understand why W has votes. Other than from people voting just because its W. You want to see this end quick? 2 words. Kiva Emperor.

Power doesn't necessarily mean victory.
While I voted for Kiva, you're being too biased against Double. Fact of the matter is, Double can counter Kiva's forms. Sheer versatility on Double's part puts him ahead of the game.

One word: CycloneJokerXtreme. Another word: CycloneJokerGoldXtreme. And furthermore, Double took down Shadow Moon when Decade and Rising Ultimate Kuuga could not. "But that Kuuga was Onodera Yuusless!" Well, that doesn't mean he's powerless. It just means the writer forgot he was Kuuga.

What part of "can see opponents weakness & exploit it" don't you understand? Emperor V Xtreme, I can see a scenario where W finds Kivat to be his weakness & targets him with the X-Bicker, firing a beam that causes him to become dizzy, desynchronizing Wataru's transformation. Also, this stigma of "W's one of the weakest Riders ever" is just bullshit.

I really dont feel Im being biased. W is one of the weakest Heisei riders out there. Kiva is skilled, fierce, and powerful. This seems like a no-brainer to me. W may be versatile but Kiva is on par versatility wise. So this comes down to a power battle, at which Kiva is vastly superior.

OK then, if Kiva WAS 'far superior' like you say, then it still wouldn't matter much. Because it's like David & Goliath, where Goliath was stronger than David in every way, but David won because he exploited Goliath's Weakness.

No, he doesn't. A sword, a gun, and a hammer versatility doesn't make. His arsenal is so similar to every other Riders' that calling Kiva versatile is an insult to everyone else. His own physical attributes don't change like Kuuga or Agito, his personality stays much the same unlike Den-O, and the weapon doesn't imbue him with some sort of extra ability like OOO or Double. He literally just gets a sword, a gun, or a hammer. That's about it.
Double's arsenal is much the same, but the different abilities he gets with Philip's memories as well as the droids' ability to combine with many of his weapons changes things up a lot.
That, and Double probably has one of the strongest Super Modes, with the ability to instantly pinpoint an enemy's weak spot and strike it for massive damage, free flight, and all 3 of the element memories at once.

Shotaru is cool headed and aggressive, while Philip is calm and analytically. Double can literally fight while reading his opponent for weaknesses. How is this an instant loss for him?

I'm agreeing with Matrix and Destroy. Biker Pony and Crotch Cannon. This is the turn my day has taken :lol

I don't believe that cameo for one second, a more Ultimate version of Kuuga then Ulimate that can make anyone bleed out, can't land one hit on Shadow moon but weakest Heisei rider Double in his standard form can launch Shadow Moon in the air? I call bulls**t. Nobody ever is allowed to use that as evidence of Double's power level EVER.

I've been explaining why Double would win too... where's my nickname :(.

But it's canon, as is evident in Movie War 2010. Besides, Double always has his (say it with me now):

RAINBOWS. OF. DEATH.

It's funny because I still voted Kiva. :lol
But saying Double is skirting on popularity and not legitimate strength is just wrong.

Sadly for Double Fans, the 15 vote mark has been passed, and Kiva clinched it :/

So close!

Rider Of The Year Tournament- 3rd Place Tournament 4
 

The Fourth Match!

Kamen Rider Den-O

VS

Kamen Rider Agito

Den-O:

• Has 9 different forms, each with their own skills
• Wields the Den-Gasher, a weapon with multiple weapon configurations
• Can travel through time with the DenLiner, which has multiple powers in each train car.
• Sword Form is Kamen Rider Den-O's first (and most common) form, used when Ryotaro is possessed by Momotaros. In Sword Form, he uses the DenGasher as a standard sword-style weapon. Sword Form is the most balanced of all his forms, possibly because of Momotaros' prominence among the other Imagin. Momotaros himself once assumed Sword Form during the events of "Final Countdown" to battle Kamen Rider Yuuki. Every so often, Momotaros will develop a new Finishing Attack that he uses to finish off Imagin, and has developed Parts 1, 2, 2' (2-dash), 3, 5, Special Version (used in "I'm Born!"), and the Imagin-assisted Final Version, although parts 2, 3, and 5 are essentially identical. Special Version is nearly identical to 2, 3, and 5, but uses a double Full Charge and only strikes the enemy on the rebound, while Final Version is an extended attack that uses the energy of the other Taros, Sieg, and Zeronos. Sword Form also has a triple roundhouse Rider Kick that Momotaros refers to as his "Super Finishing Attack."
• Rod Form is Kamen Rider Den-O's second form, used when Ryotaro is possessed by Urataros. In Rod Form, the DenGasher is transformed into a rod-style weapon. Rod Form gains the ability to move and breathe underwater, increased protection, and increased kicking power. But as a drawback, he loses physical strength and jumping height. Urataros himself assumed this form when he borrowed Ryotaro's Belt to fight off the Mole Imagin he tricked, and again during "Final Countdown" to fight the army of revived Imagin. This form is one of the least used of Den-O's forms, as Urataros rarely fights. However, whenever a fight occurs in the proximity of water, or if the other Imagin are unable to fight, Urataros will assist with his fishing skills. Rod Form is also one of two forms that uses a Rider Kick as part of its standard finisher, pinning the enemy with the rod as a harpoon before executing a flying side kick.
• Axe Form is Kamen Rider Den-O's third form, used when Ryotaro is possessed by Kintaros. In Axe Form, the DenGasher is transformed into an axe for short, close ranged attacks. Axe Form gains increased strength and defense, but as a result suffers with less speed and kicking power. This form is the physically strongest of the Den-O forms, due to Kintaros's own brute strength. Kintaros himself assumes this form by using the Den-O Belt to help Ryotaro fend off an army of Imagin in the past, and again during "Final Countdown" to fight off the army of revived Imagin. Kintaros tends to fight as Ax Form whenever he senses crying or he hears someone near Ryotaro say anything resembling the Japanese word for "cry.”
• Gun Form is Kamen Rider Den-O's fourth form, used when Ryotaro is possessed by Ryutaros. In Gun Form, the DenGasher is transformed into a gun for short and long range attacks. Gun Form displays an increase in speed, power, and defense, easily making it the most superior of the four basic forms. Ryutaros tends to fight as Gun Form at his whim, as he is able to overpower the other three Tarōs and in some cases Ryotaro. However, he also tends to cause more damage than the other forms because of his low precision and the high power of his ammunition. Ryutaros himself once assumed Gun Form during the events of "Final Countdown" in order to battle the revived army of Imagin. Ryutaros incorporates break-dancing moves into his fighting style in Gun Form, making his movements somewhat unpredictable.
• Wing Form is Den-O's fifth form, used when Ryotaro is possessed by Sieg. Wing Form is used again during the trip to the Edo period to fight the Cobra Imagin. Sieg himself once assumed Wing Form during the events of "Final Countdown" to assist in fighting Shiro's army of revived Imagin. Den-O Wing Form uses the DenGasher as two separate weapons, a boomerang (Sword and Grip) and a handaxe (Ax and Gun). Although it resembles Sword Form, the Aura Skin becomes gold, different shoulders are used, and the DenKamen's visor is blue swan-like wings. In order to access Wing Form, the golden Wing Buckle must be placed over the Terminal Buckle. This form gives Den-O agility far greater than Gun Form
• Liner Form is Den-O's final form in the series, gained when the Tarōs created the DenKamen Sword for Ryotaro to use when they could no longer possess him in the past. In order to transform into Liner Form, the Rider Pass must be slid into a slot in the back of the DenKamen Sword's blade. This form, solely controlled by Ryotaro with the Imagin using the DenKamen Sword as a means of communication, is themed around DenLiner Gouka and KingLiner in transformation and attack. Ryotaro can also utilize each of his Imagin's respective fighting style, whenever their DenKamen is selected on the DenKamen Sword (e.g. Kintaros' strength and defense in KinAx Mode, and Ryutaros' breakdancing techniques in RyuGun Mode). It soon becomes the only form Ryotaro is able to use while fighting in the past. By the time the events of Saraba Kamen Rider Den-O: Final Countdown take place, Liner Form is Ryotaro's default form, accessed through the Rider Pass, the K-Taros, and the Den-O Belt. As compared to before, he could only access Plat Form initially, a sign of his much stronger will.
• Most Powerful Form: Climax (TV), Super Climax (Movies)
• Climax Form is Den-O's sixth form. It is accessed when all of the Tarōs except Momotaros fade away and Ryotaro's desire not to lose them creates the K-Taros which restores the three Imagins' bond to Ryotaro. After entering the code 3-6-9-# and attaching it to the Den-O Belt, Den-O becomes Climax Form. Climax Form is basically a stronger version of Sword Form that incorporates the DenKamen of the other three Den-O forms onto various parts of the armor (Rod Form's DenKamen is on the right shoulder with Urataros controlling the right arm, Ax Form's DenKamen on the left shoulder with Kintaros controlling the left arm, and Gun Form's DenKamen on the chest with Ryutaros controlling the legs). But due to the nature of Climax Form, the Tarōs need to work as one to fight, and their strengths are incorporated into Climax Form. The three DenKamen can also travel along tracks on Climax Form's body to align with the leg or arm to enter Kick Mode or Punch Mode with the three Tarōs controlling that one limb while leaving Momotaros to control the rest of the body to perform "Charge and Up" attacks. Usually Momotaros is the one controlling the whole body, but the other Taros are free to take over control of their respective limb parts anytime
• Super Climax Form is Den-O's eighth, strongest, and true final form. It is identical to the original Climax Form, except with the addition of Sieg's power and Wing Form's DenKamen attaching to back, giving him wings. It is also physically stronger than Climax Form and has the ability to use the wings to fly up and execute a stronger version of Climax Form's Rider Kick. Although the wings are big and powerful to enable actual flight, it was only used to execute the said Rider Kick.

Agito-

• The Alter Ring is a mysterious belt bestowed upon Shōichi by the Over Lord of Light. It holds the "Seed of Agito" and is the source of his power. As he grows in strength, he would unlock its full powers.
• Basic form is Ground Form, with 5 other forms
• Ground Form is the first of Agito's numerous forms. This form harnesses the power of the earth, turning Tsugami's entire body into a lethal weapon, with bone-crushing blows and crippling locks. Of all the forms, the golden Ground Form is the most balanced, with power, speed and strength working in harmony to make the most of its capabilities.
  At its peak, the crest horns upon his head opens, pushing all of Agito's capabilities to their fullest, emanating beneath his feet, into his legs to execute his Rider Kick, a jump kick of incredible raw power and force; with a force of 30-tons, or with the Machine Tornador, the Rider Brake jumping off the Machine Tornador at full speed, and Dragon Breath, which involves ramming the side of the Machine Tornador into the enemy. Ground Form has also been shown to be able to use a Rider Punch.
• Storm Form is the second form of Agito, triggered when Shōichi activated the left switch on the Alter Ring, 'opening' the "Blue Dragon's Eye." The blue "Storm Form" harnesses the power of wind through the left arm, and imparts the form with supernatural agility and reflexes. The most nimble of forms, Storm Agito maneuvers with such swiftness and cunning that its movements parallel foresight.
  This form also carries a signature Storm Halberd- a folding, twin-bladed pole arm that serves as Agito‘s primary means of attack while in Storm Form. But, however superior in overall speed and agility, the Storm Form is by far the weakest in comparison to the other forms, in terms of power and strength. His final attack is Halberd Spin, whipping up a powerful gale by twirling the open Storm Halberd at rapid speeds, blowing away everything in the general vicinity, and gaining swing-momentum for a finishing strike, and with the Machine Tornador, the Halberd Brake.
• Flame Form is the third of Agito's forms to be revealed, triggered by activating the right switch on the Alter Ring, 'opening' the "Red Dragon's Eye." The searing power of flame flows through the right arm and blesses the red body of the Flame Form with incredible strength. Aside from its apparent superiority in the areas of power and defense, the Flame Form possesses phenomenal heightened senses; his senses have increased to point where an enemy's presence - whether distant, hidden, and/or invisible to the naked eye - can be detected with frightening precision.
  This form also has exclusive access to the Flame Saber, using it in his Saber Slash attack which anything he slices with the blade is reduced to ashes, or the stronger Double Saber Slash with an additional Flame Saber to deliver a double saber-stroke attack. With the Machine Tornador, Flame Form is able to use Saber Brake.
• In the brief instance when he was able to recover his memory, Shōichi revealed the power to invoke a new level of transformation possessing extraordinary properties of Ground, Storm, and Flame forms: the Trinity Form. This form's capabilities, a combination of all three, harness the strongest qualities of Agito's powers and execute the forms' finishing attacks. In this form, Agito can wield both Storm Form's Storm Halberd and Flame Form's Flame Saber.
• Burning Form, known as "the power awakening to infinite possibilities," is born when Shōichi learned to channel his fighting spirit into power. The transition was rough on Shōichi's body, as he was virtually incapacitated during the emergence of this new power. But as they manifest, the nature of the power became clear; and it is one not easily controlled. The Burning Form amplifies and translates Agito's fury into power; thus the greater his rage, the more powerful the Burning Form became, as seen in his Burning Rider Punch attack. His signature weapon, the Shining Caliber, is a dual-bladed weapon capable of two modes: Single Mode, as a dual-blade sword and Twin Mode, as paired blades. Burning Form uses the "Single Mode" exclusively for his "Burning Bomber," cutting down the enemy with lethal blazing strokes.
• Most Powerful Form- Shining Form
• Shining Form, also known as the "evolution of infinite possibilities," was awakened by the light of the sun. It was an evolution unlike anything ever anticipated by the Overlord, born when Shōichi molts after having mastered his power in Burning Form. Although the power of his fists remain unchanged, all other attributes being pushed to their peak, making Shining Form Agito's greatest form. In Shining Form, Agito wields the Shining Caliber in Twin Mode as paired blades for his high-speed "Shining Clash" attack. His final attack is Shining Rider Kick, concentrating the Agito Power before him to accelerate to supersonic speeds as he attacks with his strongest flying kick, piercing his enemy with extreme force. In Movie War 2010, it was shown that Agito Shining can also perform the Shining Rider Punch.

Once Again, The Battle Closes When The 15 (Total) Vote Mark Has Been Reached!

Well, at least he got close this time. But I swear if I hear anyone calling W "the weakest rider" there's gonna be hell to pay.

So does this battle take place in the sun or not? because thats gonna dictate this fight.

Ore Sanjou!

Yea but Krx, I usually agree with you. Never with Crotch Laser and Biker Pony :lol

Edit: KRX, Destroy, Matrix, and everyone who voted W did it for the right reason. I honestly don't understand where W being weak is coming from. Philip has a damn library in his head, Shotaro might flake but he is a good detective. And the powers of W.. His snot could beat Kiva. And that's from someone who loves Kiva.

It's more that W doesn't have a lot of raw power as his disposal like some of his fellow Heisei Riders. He has skill, but some of these guys like Kuuga, Agito, Kiva, and OOO have a lot of power at their their disposal and know how to use it well. That's at least how I feel about it.

I love Agito, but Den-O gets this one. Fighting styles that change at the hit of a button, and each a master of their weapon...oh I'd love to see Flame vs Sword form...but Den-O has this one cinched.

Yeah, I get that. And I definitely don't think that "OMG W is tha bestest & no 1 can beet him!", I just think that everyone just rights him off way too easily, because he does have some unique skills & strengths. But whatever.

I voted for Agito because isn't Agito supposed to be some kind of ultra powerhouse?

Yep. He's getting my vote, too.

He is a powerhouse. Den-O is pretty good himself but I'm not sure. Agito may have an edge here.

Yeah he's plenty unique and he has a good skill set. Being able to use 2 attributes simultaneously and use the focus of 2 people in the suit gives him plenty of advantages. But he just doesn't stack up to the abilities that alot of the other Heisei Riders do. If it makes you feel better I'd still consider Ryuki and Fourze to be weaker than W.

Whatever form Den-o uses, Agito just needs to kick.

Agito is power but Den-O isn't exactly waving paper swords, you know.

Off Topic, but now a message from our Rider Of The Year

-

I thought Kabuto won...
That's still really funny, though. :lol

OOO actually pulled out several votes right at the end of the battle and won by 2 or 3.

Den-O has a lot of options, but I'm voting Agito for reasons that have been stated since this tournament's inception :lol

I still can't decide. Den-O is versatile and powerful and I think he could probably figure out a way to take down Agito. HOWEVER, I also want Kuuga to lose this tournament. And who has the more likely chance of being able to take down Kuuga? Agito. I may have to vote Agito to lose the battle and win the war.
