Bryant: Hello everyone! I'm Bryant Reese!
Thea: And I'm Thea Price.
Bryant: And today, we'll be analyzing the two combatants we have here. Kris, the Lightner Knight.
Thea: And Frisk, the Fallen Child.
Bryant: We're here to analyse these two fighters and find out who would win, a WI Battle!
-Line Break-
Frisk:
-Stats:
=HP: 99
=LV: 20
Bryant: Long ago, two races ruled over the earth. Humans and Monsters. But one day, war broke out between the two races. After a long battle, Humans were able to seal the Monsters beneath Mt Ebott. With a magic spell. The spell could only be broken by seven Human Souls, so the Monsters were pretty much trapped. Luckily, the Monsters were pretty chill, and simply made a new civilization. And when a Human named Chara fell down, they just adopted them as their own, as a symbol of peace.
Thea: And then Chara and the Monster Prince Asriel came up with a plan to free the Monsters. Chara would poison themselves so Asriel would be able to absorb their soul and go through the barrier and get some humans to help. But, they were instead slaughtered. So, that's a thing.
Bryant: In a fit of rage, King Asgore declared that all humans who fall will have their souls harvested. And so, six human children fell, and six souls were harvested. But it was the seventh soul that determined their fate. This, was Frisk.
Thea: Frisk's history is mostly unknown, although it is implied that Frisk fell down the pit to the Monster Kingdom to kill themselves. But whatever their history was, it sure didn't stop them.
Bryant: But before we keep going, we have to determine which Frisk we're going for.
Thea: Ugh, here we go. Okay, so Frisk is from Undertale. And if a person plays Undertale, they can choose from one of three routes. For this battle, we'll be using Frisk from the Genocide route. This Frisk is cold, and merciless. Killing all the Monsters they come across.
Bryant: On their quest to kill everything they came across, they gained more and more XP, or Execution Points. And as they did, they obtained a higher level of LoVe, or Level of Violence.
Thea: With the increase in LV, they became more and more powerful. Capable of killing even some of the strongest Monsters. And of course, if you want to kill people, you need a good weapon. And Frisk's got a bunch!
Bryant: From the likes of a Toy Knife and a Ribbon to an Empty Gun and a Cowboy Hat, Frisk utilized many different weapons and armors. Each adds to Frisk's ATK and Defense in their own amounts. Frisk has even been able to attack standing where they are, even when their opponents are far away. This implies that Frisk can attack at a range, possibly in the form of a sword beam.
Frisk's Weapons:
-Stick: 0 ATK
-Toy Knife: 3 ATK
-Tough Glove: 5 ATK
-Ballet Shoes: 7 ATK
-Torn Notebook: 2 ATK
=Increases INV by 6
-Burnt Pan: 10 ATK
=Consumable items heal more HP
-Empty Gun: 12 ATK
-Real Knife: 99 ATK
Frisk's Armors:
-Bandage: 0 DEF
-Faded Ribbon: 3 DEF
-Manly Bandana: 7 DEF
-Old Tutu: 10 DEF
-Cloudy Glasses: 6 DEF
=Increases INV by 9
-Stained Apron: 11 DEF
=Heals I HP every other turn
-Cowboy Hat: 12 DEF
=Raises ATK by 5
-The Locket: 99 DEF
Thea: Frisk's best equipment pieces are easily the Real Knife, and the Locket, both which provide 99 points in either ATK and DEF. Which is pretty dumb, since obviously a gun is much better then a freakin' knife.
Bryant: Not always true, but whatever.
Thea: Wait, what do you mean, "not always true"?!
Bryant: Frisk can also CHECK their opponent, obtaining information on them, like ATK and DEF.
Bryant: Frisk is one serious powerhouse. They can keep up with the likes of Undyne in her Undying form in terms of power. Undyne in her normal form is capable of suplexing a boulder. Now, typically, a boulder is usually around ten inches. However, as this is an action that displays her power, it's more likely that the boulder is similar to size to Undyne, and most likely made of basalt, as they battle near Hotland, surrounded by dark rocks. By comparing her height to her spear, which are usually 6-8 ft, she appears to be about seven feet tall. This means that the boulder should weigh a little over 32 tons. And by dividing her ATK in her Undying form by her ATK in her Normal form, this means Undying Undyne can suplex 63 tons, though the fact that she does this multiple times, seemingly easily, probably means she can lift far more.
Thea: In terms of speed, Frisk can dodge attacks from Sans's Gaster Blasters, which a lot of people say are faster than the speed of light.
Bryant: A bold statement to be sure, but not exactly something that was actually proven in the actual game, as the Gaster Blasters haven't been actually identified as lasers. While in the Pacifist Route, Frisk was able to dodge attacks from countless bolts of lightning. However, they are told where the bolts would hit and the lighting came from above, meaning they were only about three thousandth the speed of light. But the fact that they were able to dodge the attacks at all means that they're at least close to lightning speed, especially since we're analyzing the Genocide route version of Frisk, who is several times more powerful.
Thea: How powerful?
Bryant: That's, a good question. When looking at Frisk's HP and how it increases over time, we see that at LV 1, they have 20 HP. At LV 20, they have 99. This implies that they received a 4.95x boost in power, meaning that they should be able to move at speeds higher than lightning.
Thea: Geez! Aren't they a kid? As matter of fact, what are they? Are they a boy? A girl?
Bryant: Well, they're actually genderless, as Undertale is basically a game where a person can put themselves inside.
Thea: Man, Undertale sure is unique.
Bryant: But what truly makes Frisk unique is their RESET ability. With this, they can reset time and go back to a previous event.
Thea: Wait a minute, isn't that just a regular game mechanic?
Bryant: No, this is an actual ability that Frisk has, as evident by the change in dialogue and feelings of deja vu some characters have. There have even been times where their power of RESET was taken over by Omega Flowey, who was able to do so while having the power of six souls, rather than just one soul of Determination, like Frisk. As this didn't happen with any of the other monsters, whose souls are specifically stated to be inferior in power to human souls, this suggests that Frisk's power of RESET can be canceled by opponents with equal or greater soul power.
Thea: So, they're not invincible then. But still, with the ability to move faster than lightning and match Undyne the Undying in battle, it's gonna be hard to kill this kid, RESET or not. They killed the former Queen Toriel, Undyne, Papyrus, Mettaton NEO, though that guy was a joke, Sans, and even King Asgore with a single swipe of the knife. They're an expert puzzle solver, and possess incredible skills in evasion.
Bryant: The entire world trembles before the relentless genocide, of the Seventh Child.
(Frisk) ...
Thea: Even though they don't talk.
-Line Break-
Kris:
-Stats:
=HP: 90
=LV: 1
Bryant: In an alternate universe, there is no Chara. There is no Frisk. There isn't even an Underground Kingdom, because Humans and Monsters continued to live in harmony. Instead of the Dreemurr family adopting Chara, they adopted Kris.
Thea: A kid with a good attitude! Eats moss, pulls pranks, and never talks to anybody! Well, I guess the last is more of a disadvantage with what they have to deal with.
Bryant: Kris spent the most of their life alongside their brother Asriel and their friend Noelle Holiday. They were a relatively normal kid, pulling pranks, stealing candy behind from their parents, going to church, and even playing the piano at the local hospital. But after their parents divorced and their brother went to college, Kris clammed up, shutting out the world around them.
Thea: And then they and the school bully Susie went to get some chalk which Susie was eating, fell down a hole, changed colors, and went on a quest to save the world so they could go home.
Bryant: I, uh, well, yeah, that pretty much sums it up. This was the Dark World, where there was a Dark Fountain, which would soon destroy both the Light and Dark worlds, unless Kris and Susie with their new friend Ralsei could stop it.
Thea: But it won't be easy getting to the Fountain, since the King of Spades had his entire army ready to stop them.
Bryant: See, the Darkners once lived with the Lightners, but were sealed away. The four Kings ruled in harmony with each other, until a Dark Knight came and imprisoned three, leaving the Spade King to protect the Dark Fountain. Grateful, the Spade King became a tyrant, forcing his citizens to do his bidding.
Thea: So Kris and their team were forced to find a way through the swarm of enemies and head to the castle. Luckily, Kris was equipped with the things they needed to get their team across.
Bryant: Kris is an expert strategist and analytic, leading their team through battle rather easily. They are also a skilled swordsman, wielding either sword or shield in battle.
Thea: Yeah, contrary to popular belief, Kris doesn't use sword and shield, they change their shield into a weapon. Speaking of which.
Bryant: For this battle, we'll be using equipment from the game's files, rather than the actual gameplay in order to make this battle a little more fair. Specifically, we'll be using the Everybody Weapon and the Trefoil.
Thea: LAAAAMMMMEEEE! But at least the weapon is good.
Bryant: While the actual design of the weapon is unknown, it's possible it's a weapon that can change its form, a sword form for Kris. Regardless of their weapon however, it appears that Kris can attack at a distance, possibly in the form of a sword beam.
Thea: And for the armor, Kris will be receiving the Jevilstail.
Kris's Weapons:
-Wood Blade:
=1 ATK
-Spookysword:
=2 ATK
-Trefoil:
=4 ATK
-Everybody Weapon:
=12 ATK
=6 DEF
=8 Magic
Kris's Armors:
-Pink Ribbon:
=Increases TP Range
-Amber Card:
=1 DEF
-Dice Brace:
=2 DEF
-Iron Shackle:
=1 ATK
=2 DEF
-Mouse Token:
=1 DEF
=2 Magic
-Jevilstail:
=2 ATK
=2 DEF
=2 Magic
-Bandage:
=1 HP
-White Ribbon:
=2 DEF
Thea: The Everybody Weapon gives them a big boost in ATK, DEF, and Magic. And the Jevilstail gives them an extra boost in ATK, DEF, and Magic. Wait, they can use magic?!
Bryant: That's right, with the usage of TP, or Tension Points. Tension Points are gathered by avoiding opponent's attacks. And with TP, they can use spells like Pirouette, which has a random effect, or Courage, which doubles their DEF. They can also CHECK his opponent, or simply use DEFEND to increase their TP and decrease damage.
Kris's Spells:
-Courage:
=Doubles DEF
-Pirouette
=Turn 1: Nothing happens
=Turn 2: Lowers the bonus boss's defense
=Turn 3: The number of invincibility frames decreases this turn
=Turn 4: Party DEFENSE up
=Turn 5: Nothing happens
=Turn 6: Heals a random party member
=Turn 7: Shuffles all of the party members' HP bars
=Turn 8: The boss's next attack is stronger
=Turn 9: ~30 HP heal to all party members
=Repeat
Bryant: With this, Kris has done several noteworthy feats. They defeated the Spade King and his army, dodged Lancer's attack rain, and even kept up with Susie in a battle. Susie was able to move fast enough to cover Lancer's ears before Kris's words even made it to him. This easily puts her above the speed of sound, meaning she and Kris should be able to move at 761 miles per hour. Even more impressive, they were able to dodge the attacks from Jevil the Jester, who attacks with scythes that explode into light and teleports.
Thea: You sure the two aren't just high?
Bryant: Well, it could be that. But ignoring that, Kris also tanked being sent flying even after being pulmetted by a barrage of attacks from the Spade King. Assuming Kris is the weight of an average teenager around fifteen years old, which is about 124 lbs, and assuming they were sent flying about thirty feet, that means that each individual spade that the Spade King attacks with about 77 lbs of force. Counting all the spades that they were hit with when the Spade King tricked them, this means that he can withstand about 3.5 tons of force. And after that, they went to the Fountain, destroying it with their soul of Determination, canceling out it's magic and returning Susie and Kris back to their world.
Thea: Not bad! This is certainly one knight that one should never mess with. Kris Dreemurr is a warrior, who the Darkners can all count on to save the day! And then go home to rip their heart out and eat Butterscotch Cinnamon Pie.
Bryant: Wait, what?
(Kris) ...

Bryant: Alright, the stage is set, time to start this dance.
Thea: Battle ready, set, GO!
-Line Break-
"See? I never betrayed you! It was all a trick, see? I was waiting to kill him for you!" Flowey said nervously. Frisk stared at them with a cold gaze. Their clothes were covered in dust, and a knife was in their hands. "After all, it's me! Your best friend! I'm helpful! I can be useful! I promise I won't get in your way! I can help . . . I can . . . I can . . . Ple ase don't kill me..." he whimpered. Frisk raised their knife, but something stopped them. They turned, hearing something.
Tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap.
Frisk stared at the open doorway. A figure appeared. It looked like them, but they were wearing a green and yellow sweater, in contrast to their blue and purple. They stared at each other. Frisk decided to CHECK the person in front of them.
[CHECK]
ATK: ? DEF: ?
You missed one. You should know what to do.
Kris had a bad feeling when they walked through this castle. First, the pile of dust sitting on a blue jacket. Now, dust flying through the air of the room of their father's favorite flowers. Looking at the figure in front of him, they decided to CHECK them.
Check:
Frisk-The Angel of Darkness. They killed everyone. You know what you must do.
Flowey suddenly summoned pellets and tried to shoot them at Frisk. Without even looking, Frisk slashed the flower to pieces with their knife, the Locket around their neck. Kris swiped the air in front of them sideways, turning blue with silver armor, black bodysuit, a blue and purple shawl on their shoulders, Jevilstail wrapped around their waist.
YOU ARE FILLED WITH DETERMINATION!
FIGHT!
Frisk and Kris charged at each other, Frisk raising their knife while Kris summoned their sword. They clashed, passing by each other. Kris whirled around and leapt at Frisk, bringing their blade down. Frisk dodged to the side and ducked the following slash. Kris attacked rapidly, slashing at the smaller human. Frisk dodge rapidly, before leaping back. They charged back at Kris and slashed with their knife, only for Kris to dodge as well. The two danced around each other, slashing and dodging before jumping back. They looked at each other, impressed.
Kris held his finger before moving it forward in a shooting motion. Frisk reached into their [MENU] before pulling out a gun, putting away their knife. They aimed and fired. Kris glowed briefly before turning their sword into a shield. The magic bullets bounced off before Kris turned the shield back to a sword and charged. Frisk continued to shoot as Kris dodged, barely letting the bullets miss before slashing upward at Frisk. Frisk dodged before taking out their knife again and slashing at Kris. Kris quickly turned their sword into a shield again and blocked.
Kris slammed their shield into Frisk and sent them back before changing their shield back to a sword and slashing them across the chest. Frisk stumbled back before stabbing at Kris. They dodged the stab before bringing up their sword to block the next attack, being sent flying. They groaned softly as they slammed into the wall of the room. Kris looked up before ducking under Frisk's next attack, slashing upward and knocking Frisk away. Frisk landed and slashed downward, a blade of red energy. Kris shot back their own sword beam, the two slamming into each other and cancelling out.
Kris grunted as they got up. They suddenly spun, balancing on one foot. They charged at Frisk, who charged back. Frisk slashed at Kris, who tilted their head to dodge, the knife grazing their cheek and leaving a small cut. Kris jumped to the side, dodging as Frisk followed, slashing as fast as they could. Kris dodged to the side as Frisk slashed downward before sending Frisk flying with another slash. Frisk rolled as they landed, getting up and charging forward again. Kris dodged Frisk's attack before changing their sword to block the next one again. Frisk tsked before slashing the shield rapidly. Kris gritted their teeth as the blows began affecting them behind their shield. They knocked the next attack away and punched Frisk as hard as they could. Frisk skidded back before leaping upward again and bringing their knife down. Kris jumped back, dodging Frisk's attack as it broke the floor. Frisk dashed behind Kris and grabbed them around the waist, bringing them up and suplexing them, breaking the ground and sending flowers flying everywhere. Kris spun and kicked Frisk before stabbing them with their sword and slamming them with their shoulder. Frisk rolled backwards before standing up. Kris spun their sword before taking a stance. Frisk got into their own stance.
FRISK: [CHECK]
ATK: ? DEF:?
Persistent, and fast. Possibly more persistent than Sans. But they're weaker. Hit them harder and harder.
KRIS: [CHECK]
FRISK: They're stronger than you, but you're faster. Fight smart.
Kris made a shooting motion at Frisk and glowed briefly as they casted Courage. Frisk charged and slashed at Kris. Kris brought up their shield and blocked the hit, moving to the side to lessen the force. Frisk attacked again, spinning around and sending another beam towards Kris who dodged, letting the beam graze their chest. Frisk charged and tackled Kris, sending them both through the air. Kris spun and threw Frisk off, slashing their sword and sending another beam down towards them. Frisk held up their knife and blocked the beam, crashing on the ground with a cloud of dust. Kris landed on their feet behind them. They spun and held up their shield, blocking another sword beam. Frisk appeared behind them, Kris ducking under the attack and slashing up. Frisk leaned back and stabbed Kris in the shoulder before punching them and throwing the knight away. Kris got up and held up his sword, blocking another attack and pushing Frisk away. They spun on a foot again before pointing at Frisk. Suddenly, the Locket lost some of its luster. Frisk looked down in surprise before Kris dashed forward and sent them flying with another hit. They leapt after the fallen child, slashing them again before pushing them to the ground with another crash and dust cloud. Several red slashes flew out, hitting the surprised Kris.
Kris grunted as Frisk flew out towards them. Kris casted Courage again before charging forward. The two charged at each other, thrusting their weapons forward. Suddenly, Kris turned the sword into a shield, and tilted back, letting Frisk's knife and the fallen child slide across it as Kris shoved Frisk up. Changing the sword back to a shield, they swung with all their might, cutting Frisk deeply across their chest. Frisk coughed as blood came out their mouth. They fell onto the ground, staining the flowers around them. Kris sighed, turning around. Frisk was reaching for a button, one that said [RESET]. Kris charged forward and brought down their sword with all their might. The button shattered under their attack. Kris turned back to Frisk, raising their blade and stabbing downward, impaling the Fallen Child.
KRIS has killed you...
But it refused.
Frisk shot up, bringing their knife up, slashing Kris and sending the knight flying. Kris shakingly got up, before Frisk slashed across their throat, using a sword beam to decapitate them.
Frisk panted in exertion. Looking around, they noticed their LV had gone up to LV 21. They sighed and looked to the side. They froze. Chara smiled at them, the area around them turning black.
"Hello. I, am Chara."
KO!
Thea: Wow, talk about a fake out!
Bryant: This was a close match. Kris was the superior strategist. Not to mention their magic didn't really run out since the TP increases over time. Frisk didn't have anyway to increase their defense or heal themselves or affect Kris the same way Kris could to them. On top of that, since Kris could dodge Jevil's light pillars, it's reasonable to assume that they can move close to the speed of light, where-as Frisk could at most dodge speed almost 5 times faster than lightning. But, unfortunately, that's where Kris's advantages ran out.
Thea: Frisk was way tougher and stronger, as evident by the fact that they kept up with Undyne in her Undying form before they were even LV 20. And while Kris's soul should be strong enough to match Frisk's in power, Frisk has more experience, since Kris spent most of their battles with a team, in contrast to Frisk who battled a bigger variety of opponents by themselves. And since Pirouette also could've helped Frisk, it wasn't that reliable of a spell.
Bryant: Kris certainly was a tough opponent for Frisk to battle, but all this means that Frisk and their bigger variety of weapons gave them an edge over Kris's more limited arsenal.
Thea: Which means this WIB Victory goes to Frisk!
And there we go, a battle between Frisk and Kris, the main Protags of my two favorite video games. Uploads may be a little slow, but my grandma needs some help, so she's staying over at my place. I'll update as soon as I can though! Leave your request in the review section! Azure out!
