No rules. No safety. No mercy. It's a duel to the death to decide who is...THE DEADLIEST WARRIOR!
Here in our elite fight club we have gathered doctors, medical scientists and weapons experts to test out the lethal arsenals wielded by each of our combatants to determine who would win a fight between two of the world's most fierce warriors.

''Today on Alternate Matches, two fierce and merciless warriors who fought in the name of their kingdoms finally meet. The fierce Rajput of India will engage in combat against the feared English Longbowman. It's a great match between two warriors who will never back down.'' Mack started
''I give this to the Rajput, I simply cannot overlook his superior training methods and his weapons, those damn things are just so clever and that's going to take the longbowman by surprise.'' Biomedical Engineer Geoff Desmoulin said
''This has to be the longbowman's.'' Trauma Doctor Armand Dorian countered. ''He has a much superior long range weapon and that'll be the game changer in this fight. He'll kill the Rajput before he can even come close.''
The proud Rajput came equipped with a varied assortment of exotic weaponry for cutting down all invaders.
Short Range: Khanda
Mid-Range: Bhuj
Long Range: Chakram
Special: Katar
In turn the English Longbowman comes equipped with a balanced arsenal for all ranges.
Short Range: Bastard Sword
Mid-Range: Quarterstaff
Long Range: English Longbow
Special: Rondel Dagger
When things got up close, both warriors used two equally deadly swords to cut their foes down.
We review the testing of both weapons in action, after a brief debate our panelists come to a decision.
''Khanda takes this one, the Bastard sword may be able to stab unlike the khanda, but the Rajput's gatka training multiplies the lethality of it by 100. Edge khanda.'' Geoff started
''I agree, the khanda causes more trauma on your body and more trauma wins my heart over.'' Dorian added
''Khanda, superior fighting technique with the gatka training makes it into a killing machine.'' Mack concluded
In short range weapons the edge goes to the Rajput for the khanda.
Both warriors used different mid-ranged weapons to get the job done, we review the testing of the bhuj and quarterstaff in their debut episodes and come to a decision.
''Do I really have to say it? Bhuj, why? multiple uses and that hidden dagger is a surprise for the longbowman.'' Geoff commented
''Bhuj.'' Dorian and Mack said
Yes..well.. Ahem. For mid-range weapons the edge goes to the Rajput for the bhuj.
For long range weap.. English Longbow?
''Yes narrator.'' Geoff said
...For long range weapons the edge goes to the English Longbowman for the English Longbow...what a shocker..
We check the special weapons our warriors used when a sidearm was needed. The Rajput katar and the Longbowman Rondel dagger.
''Katar, offensive and defensive capabilities and can catch the longbowman's dagger.'' Geoff said
For special weapons the edge goes to the Rajput for the katar.

''Let's dig into those x-factors.'' Mack said
''Training was a no brainer and the Rajput had a 100 to the Longbowman's 94.''
''Ferocity goes to the Rajput with a 94 to the Longbowman's 80.''
''Physicality belongs to the Rajput with a 95 to the Longbowma's 84.''
''Endurance is the Rajput's with a 90 to the Longbowman's 81.''
''Intimidation goes to the Rajput with a 90 to the Longbowman's 83.''
''Last is killer instinct and the Rajput has a perfect 100 to the Longbowman's 86.''
Our scientists and experts are done testing the results and the time has come to decide who will be the victor. To ensure the battle won't be decided by a single lucky blow, the battle will be simulated one thousand times in a duel to the death.
Who will win a battle between two fierce soldiers?
"In the end there can be only one. Let's find out," Mack said.

We are brought to the a large forest in North India, a lone English Longbowman has been sent by his superiors to scout the unknown land to determine it's defensive capabilities.
He continues forth when he comes to a small cliff and sees a large village at the bottom. He has run out of water so he decides to descend the cliff and make his way into the village.
When he reaches a path leading to the village he sees a man with a weird beard carrying a weird looking disc type weapon.
The Rajput sees the bow in the man's hand and senses an invasion. Readying a chakram he flings it towards the English warrior. The Longbowman jumps behind a tree and the chakram embedds in the trunk.
Annoyed at the sudden attack, the longbowman strings an arrow into his bow and quickly jumps from behind cover and sees the Rajput charging, taking aim he fires his arrow and the arrow just barely misses his eye and hits the Rajput's helmet.
The hit stuns the Rajput halting his charge and this gives the longbowman the time to string another arrow. Aiming he fires again and the arrow finds it's mark into the Rajput's stomach, the arrow piercing through the armor enough to cut skin.
Grunting at the pain, the Rajput ignores the arrow and draws his khanda and charges again. Not having the time to string another arrow, the longbowman draws his bastard sword and awaits the Indian warrior.
The Rajput raises his shield and both meet in a full force tackle that sends them stumbling backwards. The Rajput recovers first and swings his khanda in an effort to decapitate the man. The longbowman lifts his shield up and blocks the blow and retaliates with a low swing only for the Rajput to jump over it and swing his khanda overhead and manages to hit the longbowman in his helmet.
The force of the blow dazes him for a second and the Rajput swings his khanda again and hits the Englishman in his side, however his chainmail saves him from being sliced in half. The Rajput twirls around the longbowman and brings his khanda down again but the longbowman turns and thrusts his sword out and stabs into the Rajput's side cutting only skin.
Jumping back in pain and dropping his sword, the Rajput falls back against a tree and the Englishman thrusts his sword again only for the Rajput to twirl away and draw his bhuj.
He brings the bhuj down and strikes the longbowman's already bruised side causing him to drop his sword and hold his side in pain, he makes a quick retreat to another tree and draws his quarterstaff. Both hold their polearms protectively in front of them and it would be the Rajput who makes the first move.
He swings his bhuj horizontally and is blocked by the quarterstaff's head. Parrying the blow the longbowman creates an opening and swings the spiked end into the Rajput's helmet. Several spikes digging into the helmet and becoming stuck.
The Englishman attempts to move the quarterstaff in such a way that it twists the Rajput's neck, screaming at the forced twist in pain the Rajput draws the hidden dagger in the bhuj and rushes forward making the Englishman drop his staff and stabs him in the side with the dagger pushing him to the ground.
The Rajput stabs the Englishman again and goes to bring the dagger into his brain but the Englishman draws his own dagger and catches the Indian warrior's arm and stabs him in the stomach.
Grunting in pain the Rajput jumps off the longbowman dropping his dagger in the process and draws both his katars. The bleeding longbowman get's up and stands with his dagger held in hand.
They eye each other hatefully for a moment.
The longbowman spits at the Rajput before saying ''You will fall Heathan scum.''
''nahin, aap aakramanakaaree gir jaegee.'' Replied the Rajput.
With that, they both charge each other full forces and their blades intercept with one another. The scissor katar catching the rondel dagger and Rajput thrusts his dagger katar only for the Englishman to suck his stomach in nearly avoiding the blade.
Seeing his opponent dodge his attack the Rajput kicks him over and lunges forward. Side stepping the Englishman thrusts his rondel into the Rajput's side and pushes him against a boulder, pinning his opponent down he violently stabs him repeatedly before bring his dagger and prepares to dig it into the Indian's face.
The Rajput ignores the severe pain and in the last split second, brings his scissor katar and stabs the Englishman in his gut.
Gasping at the sudden pain, he looks down and sees the katar in his body, the scissor katar opens and cuts into his intestings. He coughs up blood and drops his dagger and backing away in pain. He looks at the Rajput who only responds by lunging forward and stabs him in the chest multiple times before slicing open his neck with the dagger katar,
The Englishman places on hand on his stomach wound and another on his sliced open neck and looks wide-eyed at the Rajput, his breath stops and his eyes roll to the back of his head and he falls over, never to rise again.
Looking at the dying longbowman, he raises his katars into the air and shouts in victory.

Following a battle between two fierce front line troops. It would be the Rajput who would achieve victory. His superior close range, his katar being his deadliest weapon with 236 kills and mid-range weapons combined with his gatka training and armor allowed him to defeat the English Longbowman with over 56.8%. The Longbowman only had 43.2% with his trademark longbow being the most deadly weapon with 261 kills allowed him to keep the Rajput at a distance and prevented this from being anymore lopsided.
''It's not a surprising victory here. Sure the longbowman has the massive range advantage with the longbow but once the Rajput managed to close that distance and both were forced to fight up close and personal, it was all over the longbowman. He just couldn't handle the martial arts super soldier that was the Rajput.'' Geoff explained
(The Rajput makes his way back to his village, he carries the fallen Englishman's longbow, proof that there was an invasion coming and souvenir of this warrior who spilled his blood many times during their amazing battle, he will never forget that warrior.)
Rajput Translation: ''No, you will fall invader.''
