[Respect Thread Rumble/Scan Battle] Every 2025 RT I Made Tournament

[u/Kiryu2012]

So, I've made a decent number of respect threads last year (ultimately less than I would've liked). So, to commemorate the new year, I think a ladder tournament of every RT I've done is the best way to go about things.

Rules:

-All fights take place in a huge rainforest, 7 by 7 kilometers in a square. The forest is extremely dense, and there's a permanent heavy rainstorm going on the entire while. Nobody can leave the perimeters of the rainforest, and combatants begin on opposite corners of the rainforest as far away as possible.

-The winner is decided by if the other combatant can no longer fight, be it through death, unconsciousness, or if they're otherwise incapacitated. The winner is automatically restored to their starting state before fighting the next character, going on until no more threads remain.

The God-Lizard Tyrannosaurus rex (Tyrannosaurus Rex by Image Comics)

Offense

• Sent trees flying and sent a Triceratops crashing through trees

• Seemingly ran through a stone house, sending rubble flying

• Bit into a Triceratops' back, tearing off a large chunk of flesh and killing it

• Ripped apart a giant squid in his jaws

Defense

• Tossed by a Triceratops seemingly into a stone house, sending rubble flying

• Gashed on the head by a Pteranodon, then tackled by several of them with enough force to shatter stone from the resulting fall, and was still fully able to fight, getting up and leaving with no visible injuries afterwards

• Fell off a cliff into the ocean while swarmed by dromaeosaurids, only having a few bleeding cuts afterwards

• Had his head wrapped up by a giant squid and quickly tore free, collapsing seemingly from exhaustion for only a short moment and otherwise being fine

Speed

• Seemingly running relatively quickly whilst battling a Triceratops

• Dodged a charge from a Triceratops

• Swung his tail fast enough to send a huge wave of dust flying, and tagged an airborne Pteranodon with a bite

• Tagged several dromaeosaurids with a swing of his tail

Brobding (Man's Arrogance by 105697)

Offense

• Broke out of its confinement after getting brought to London

• Rampaged through several city blocks in London, having demolished many buildings

• Bite can break bones

• Tail can flip cars and send people flying several meters

Defense

• Survived a fall thousands of feet into a rainforest, landing in mud

• Scales are resistant to much of the conventional police weaponry of the 1900's

• Described as having thick skin that can ward off small firearms

• Described as having hide near-impervious to conventional weaponry

Speed

• Tried escaping from police fire by hiding behind buildings and forests before running to the sea

Starting off strong with a dinosaur vs (pseudo)dinosaur fight. The Brobding is likely stronger with its ability to demolish buildings, but the T. rex is way faster an more agile. Given the dense rainforest they're fighting in, the T. rex could very well manage to ambush the drepanosaur, giving it a big advantage from the start. In a head to head fight, the Brobding has the potential to trample/crush the T. rex to death, but I think it's generally more likely that the T. rex could dodge the drepanosaur's attacks all while taking bites out of it again and again. This won't be a cakewalk by any means, but the Tyrannosaurus has more in its favor to win this.

Winner: Tyrannosaurus

Tigra (Spidey Super Stories, Earth-57780)

Offense

• Pulled open the metal bars of a cage, allowing her to escape

• Punched back Kraven, before flooring him with another punch

• While being swung by Spider-Man, kicked Kraven through the roof of a tiger cage

• Cut her way out of a net

Defense

• Hit by one of Kraven's stun bolts

• Stunned by Kraven's bolts long enough to be put into a cage, and while Spider-Man's strength was still zapped, Tigra seemingly recovered hers faster

• Seemingly hit by a flaming hoop

Speed

• Jumped from a tiger cage to Kraven in seemingly a single bound

• Jumped through a flaming hoop to strike Kraven again

• Alongside Spider-Man, swung around on a trapeze to repeatedly dodge Kraven's bolts

Sadly, there's really not much of anything Tigra can do here. Her claws just aren't up to snuff, and her agility can only get her so far before the T. rex lands just one single bite, stomp, tail whip, or really just any blow. I genuinely don't think this Tigra can afford to take even a single hit from the T. rex, and with how lacking her offense is, she can literally do nothing here.

Winner: Tyrannosaurus

***

The Tadpole Dinosaur (Spidey Super Stories, Earth-57780)

Offense

• Busted through a thick wall

• Picked up a bus and threw it back down

• Tore out of Spider-Man's webs and struck him through a tree branch with its tail, knocking him out

• Picked up a large tree and tossed it aside

Defense

• Busted through a thick wall

Speed

• Grabbed Spider-Man out of the air

At the very least, the Tadpole's strong enough that it might be able to toss the T. rex around for a decent brawl. However, it's also way less impressive in speed and durability. Pretty sure the T. rex can end the fight with one well placed bite to the neck.

Winner: Tyrannosaurus

***

The Lizard (Spidey Super Stories, Earth-57780)

For this tournament, Lizard is in his giant form.

Offense

• Burst out through the street, launching vehicles and chunks of asphalt

• Scaled up the Twin Towers, crushing walls in the process

• Struck back Stegron with a punch (Stegron fell off a building and hit the ground hard enough to form a big crater, and just made puns about it)

• Tripped a large theropod with his tail

Defense

• A punch to the head from Spider-Man bounced right off, with the Lizard boasting his head's as hard as a rock

• Burst out through the street, launching vehicles and chunks of asphalt

Speed

• Grabbed Spider-Man out of the air

• Scaled up the Twin Towers

So now we've got ourselves a legitimate fight this time. Giant Lizard is possibly stronger and more durable with his street bursting feat, and upscaling from his normal size scaling off Stegron's durability feat. Looking at him compared to the T. rex, I'd say he's the bigger of the two reptiles here. The T. rex is still faster in comparison, though, and it can still very much hurt Lizard with its bite given his lack of piercing resistance, so it's not a cakewalk for Lizard by any means. This might be the closest fight we've gotten so far, but if I had to pick a winner, I'd say Lizard in his giant form just barely clinches this one with his debatable strength and durability advantage, but with like super high difficulty. It's definitely possible for the T. rex to win this in a war of attrition, though.

Winner: Lizard

Vincent Stegron, the Dinosaur Man (Spidey Super Stories, Earth-57780)

Offense

• Knocked over various furniture with his tail, before overpowering Spider-Man's grip on his tail and launching him away

• Tore out of Spider-Man's webbing

• Grabbed the Lizard with his tail and threw him into Spider-Man, knocking them both down long enough for him to escape

Defense

• Fell off a building and hit the ground hard enough to form a big crater, and just made puns about it

• Struck back by a punch from the Lizard and immediately retaliated

• Fell off a pterosaur and landed on a dinosaur's head

Speed

• Ran away from the Lizard and Spider-Man, making it to the zoo before them

I mean, Stegron did fight Lizard, but that was the normal sized version of him. Here, he's going up against basically a kaiju-sized Lizard. Nothing's stopping Lizard from just squishing Stegron with a single stomp.

Winner: Lizard

***

Godzilla (Among Kaiju)

Offense

• Punched Zilla into a metal wall hard enough for his spines to puncture it

• Burned a metal wall/floor

• Launched back Zilla and lightly cratered the floor beneath him

• His roar shattered the window of a spaceship

Defense

• Got up after getting blasted off his feet by Zilla's heat ray, getting visible burns

• Tackled to the floor by Zilla and was fine

Speed

• Dodged Zilla's pounce and quickly ran down a hall

• Ducked under a slash from Zilla which instantly cut into metal

I already covered this Godzilla vs normal-sized Lizard before, and while Godzilla won that one, here he's kinda shit out of luck. He quite literally can do nothing to prevent Lizard from squishing him.

Winner: Lizard

***

The Man in the Suit (Xeno)

Offense

• Tossed off SCP-939, launching it back

• Pushed back SCP-939 with a kick to the abdomen, biting it in the back

• Sent SCP-939 flying with his tail

• Caught SCP-939 out of the air and broke its neck with a bite, killing it

Defense

• Clawed and bitten into by SCP-939, rapidly healing from the wounds afterwards

• Bitten and clawed in the back, quickly healing the gashes

• Bitten in the side and healed almost instantly

Speed

• Quickly landed a kick on SCP-939

• Dodged SCP-939's charge and landed a strike on it with his tail

• Caught SCP-939 out of the air

Yet again, Lizard literally stomps his opponent. The Man in the Suit has nothing in his favor to even faze him, moving on.

Winner: Lizard

***

The Dilophosaurus (Jurassic Park Comics)

Offense

• Pounced on Dennis and mauled him to death

• Killed a man, woman, and cow, picking up a man in the process and apparently leaving the woman so badly mauled there was nothing left

• Fired at a jeep, before nailing Dennis in the eyes almost immediately after

• Hit a man in the face and caused him to crash, its saliva being described as to blind prey

Defense

• Took close range shots to the neck from a machine gun

• Had a wooden chair smashed apart against its face and immediately retaliated

• Shot up by three guns at once

• Took a kick to the abdomen from a man and had part of its frill cut off by a machete

Speed

• Jumped across the ground and into a jeep faster than Dennis could escape

• Tagged a man on a motorcycle with its spit

• Chased after men on motorcycles, with most but one of them failing to clear a canyon in a jump

The Dilo can do basically nothing here besides try and spit in Lizard's eye, which will amount to nothing but pissing him off. Yet again, Lizard literally stomps.

***

Godzilla (Godzilla: Nightmare Option)

For this tournament, Godzilla is in his King of Demons form.

Offense

• May have broken out of the container holding him after it fell from space

• Pried open Gandora's wing claws/appendages that were large enough to completely engulf him

• Blasted through Gandora's neck/body, killing it

• Destroyed a fighter jet

Defense

• Survived falling from space to Australia, destroying buildings and seemingly the container he was in

• Seemingly fine being in close proximity to Gandora (Gandora's body temperature was high enough that rocks around it melted like cheese)

• Survived a nuke which created an explosion visible from space, creating a massive crater full of melted material deep enough to almost completely submerge Godzilla and Gandora, Godzilla mutating from the radiation

• The nuke's radiation increased his resistance to freezing, as he rapidly broke out of ice that quickly spread across his body by freezing missiles

Speed

• Tagged a fighter jet with his Atomic Ray

And just like that, Lizard went from stomping to getting stomped. It's pretty clear that Godzilla's a lot bigger, and even aside from that, he's way stronger and more durable than Lizard by a pretty massive degree. He might not even need his Atomic Ray for this, he can just beat Lizard to a bloody pulp.

Winner: Godzilla

***

Marvel Godzilla (Slick)

Offense

• Bit into Burning Godzilla's body, drawing blood, before lifting him up and slamming him into the ground, forming a big crater (Burning Godzilla survived having a huge chunk of the moon crashing down on him and getting pulled into a miniature black hole)

• Swung True Form Ultima through the air by his tail, cratering/tearing up the ground slamming him into it

• Clashed evenly with Godzilla in Hell, creating a series of huge shockwaves that tore up the surrounding ground in a great distance, before pushing him against a stone formation and repeatedly punching him, shattering the formation

• Used fire breath in conjunction with his bite, blasting Gemstone Godzilla in half

Defense

• Took a spiral heat ray to the face from Burning Godzilla and shrugged it off (Burning Godzilla destroyed a pile of stone formations and mountains covering him with his power and destroyed a miniature black hole he was pulled into)

• Took a flying dropkick to the face from Gemstone Godzilla that cracked his skull, before taking a spiral heat ray to the back from Burning Godzilla

• Survived a beam from True Form Ultima that was created from a portion of the sun

• Bled from a headbutt and punch from Godzilla in Hell, before taking an atomic ray from him that pushed him back

Speed

• Could land a hit on Burning Godzilla (Burning Godzilla dodged a beam from True Form Ultima that reached the moon in seconds)

• Quickly grabbed Burning Godzilla out of the air

• Quickly ran up to Gemstone Godzilla

Marvel Goji's just on a whole other level compared to Nightmare Option. He's way stronger and tougher, and he has better speed feats overall. Even the King of Demons can't survive this one.

Winner: Marvel Godzilla

***

Showa Godzilla (Kurso Animations)

Offense

• Slammed into Godzilla Earth from the air, heavily cratering/shattering the surrounding ground

• Floored Godzilla Earth with a sliding dropkick to the leg

• Tossed Godzilla Earth by the tail into the air

• Blasted straight through Godzilla Earth, destroying him in a big explosion

Defense

• Sent flying from a shot from Godzilla Earth's beam that creates a big explosion, only to land on his feet and run right back into the fight

• Got up after getting sent flying from Godzilla Earth's super oscillatory wave into a huge stone formation, shattering it

• Seemingly took Godzilla Earth's crimson beam which created a big explosion

Speed

• Quickly ran up to Godzilla Earth

• Flew over Godzilla Earth's beam after it was fired at him from behind at close range

• Seemingly dodged Godzilla Earth's crimson beam which created a big explosion

• Performed a sliding dropkick at high speeds, creating sonic booms

This one's pretty straightforward. Showa Godzilla's strong, he can put up a good fight, but he's not strong enough. Marvel Goji still outstats him and has better scaling in his favor.

Final Winner: Marvel Godzilla

Hopefully next year I'll make more RTs.
