Rider Of The Year Tournament 2012 Discussion

This is a tough one. Meteor has the skill edge, but Den-O has the edge in versatility and power. I guess I have to go with Den-O. Gun Form and Rod Form could wear Ryusei down from a distance, Axe Form could tank most of his hits, and then Sword Form could finish the job.

It would be really damn close, though, and I can easily see it going either way.

What the hell guys???? NO NO NO You cannot make me choose.

I agree with this, plus add in Liner and Cho Climax and it's a done deal.

Meteor has skill, but I think the versatility of Den-O would take it in this match up.

Den-O · 09-02-2012, 11:15 AM

Glad to see my boy is getting some more love. I too would agree that Den-O's power set and versatility give him an easy advantage over Meteor. As I've said many times before Ryusei very skilled and very determined but in this case I don't think his abilities could stack up. Especially if Den-O used one of his better forms like Wing or Super Climax.

Meteor. He's better trained, he doesn't have to rely on unreliable Imagin to use his powers, and he isn't as useless out of the suit as Ryutaro is.

I swear to god I have no idea where you keep getting your information from. The Imagin are not unreliable dude. They don't just whimsically come and go as they please all the time. They don't bicker constantly either. They use those characters for comedic relief when they yell at each other. But if there's a battle they get serious. Please watch the show before you make generalizations about the characters based on minimal information.

Well, lucky for you Den-O, this battle closed just now, so 3rd place goes to....

Kamen Rider Den-O!

And now the finals begin!!!

Kamen Rider Agito (2001)

VS

Kamen Rider Dark Kiva (Kamen Rider Kiva, 2008)

Our competitors' stats!
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.
Weaknesses- Unfortunately, when Shōichi once again loses his memory, the power of the Trinity Form was sealed away. Out of all of Agito's forms, Burning Form is the slowest of them all.

Dark Kiva

As Dark Kiva, the King has access to a unlimited potential of power that is hindered within his successor such as telekinesis and the use of the Kiva insignia as a weapon.
The Dark Kivat Belt is the King's means of transforming into Dark Kiva. Similar to how Kiva transforms, the King has Kivat-bat the 2nd bite him, and then perch upside down on the Power Roost of the belt's Dark Kibuckle to complete the transformation, separating from the belt when certain conditions demand for it like Fuestle-blowing. The Dark Kivat Belt also has six Fueslots to hold the six Fuestles.
Kivat-Bat the 2nd can support him by attacking before he henshins.
Has two seen finishers- Darkness Hell Crash: Referred to by Kivat-Bat the 2nd as "Wake Up One," the Darkness Hell Crash is a punch with the force of 65t. When performed, day turns into night with blood red fog. Dark Kiva then does a flying punch with his right arm. King's Burst End: Referred to by Kivat-Bat the 2nd as "Wake Up Two," the King's Burst End is an Emperor Moon Break-style kick with the force of 180t and green energy blades.
Wields the Zanvat Sword.
Can assume the form of the Bat Fangire.
Weakness- As a Fangire, he can be shattered. Kivat-Bat the 2nd sometimes disagrees with him.

The final battle begins now!!!! It closes Monday Morning! Decide the winner!
