Spartans v Guardians

Spartan Squad/Team

8589

Guardian Fireteam

9659

This is purely hypothetical and off-topic but I want to know what the community thinks. If a squad/team of 3 Spartans (Halo Franchise) went toe-to-toe with a fireteam of 3 Guardians who would rise victorious?

  • We don't have books that state the capabilities of Guardians. Yet. I mean, you don't see Chief running as fast as he can in the books, ya know?

  • Finally, the forums come to their senses and the Guardians take the lead.

    • Guardians have better weapons. They have special class perks that are space magic. Guardian melees are more powerful. Super powers!

        • Well if an in game Spartan was introduced to an in game guardian the guardian with their light lvl would kill the spartan (who would technically be zero). Spartans in game can't double jump or blink or any of those abilities. Though according to lore Spartans are extremely powerful, the guardians don't have such detailed lore as them, so we don't truly know how powerful a guardian of light could be.

          Telling by the comments, nobody's even played Halo My favorite was Halo 2 on Xbox, such a fun game.

          • To everybody saying Spartans would win: Remember that guardians don't ever die permanently. How can you win against that which doesn't die?

            • Well if we could actually use are abilities to their full potential. We could wall run and simply run faster altogether. Void light could be interlaced in our armor making us nearly invincible. This is still hypothetical as well.

              • The Chief survived a fall from high orbit in only his armor. Lets see a guardian do that without needing to revive.

                  • Obviously guardians because when you die by hazards in halo it says "[b]Killed by the Guardians"[/b]. ;)

                      Armor lock > Fist of havok Armor lock > Nova bomb Armor lock > Golden gun Armor lock > blade dancer Armor lock > gally, or any other rocket launcher 1 Spartan II destroyed pretty much several entire armys. There was a time when 6 guardians had trouble killing atheon or crota. I am a huge fan of Destiny, and I love the chracters, although not developed as true "characters" But if you were to read the halo books, most of you would understand just how powerful a single Spartan is. 8 times stronger than an average human, plus their armor makes them 13 times stronger than that. Invisibility is usless against a Spartan due to their AI's tracking ability. Spartans, all day. Sorry guardians, just out classed here

                      • If you went up against a spartan you would get killed. On the screen they would look bigger than a knight and have more armor and way better weapons. If they have armor abilities like in halo 3 and 4 then they would be totally unstoppable. More health. Faster. More powerful weapons. Getting punched by a spartan would be like getting hit by a car. Remember they are 8.5 feet tall, have super dense bones, are covered in steel and their armor makes them more powerful, their minds are genetically enhanced and they have beyond human reflexes. They weigh like 1000 pounds and even if they got punched my a Titan, it might lower their shield. I doubt it would do much. I think it would take a whole fireteam of guardians to take one spartan. And if the Spartan has a vehicle, forget about it.

                          Spartans. Guardians aren't bred for battle. Spartans are, keep in mind these guys are basically bungies versions of warhammer space marines. Bred, genetically engineered or enhanced, trained relentlessly. Ingame they would be bigger than a knight. Only thing guardians got going for them is their special abilities. Take out game like mechanics and put guardians and Spartans against each other in pretty sure Spartans would win unless guardians and their light is some kind of space magic with unknown effects against someone not of the light, or dark. We also need to know if we're talking old Spartans or new. Heck odst troops would give guardians a run for their money in a straight up fight probably too. Would lose but probably make guardians work for it. Though in that case it could just go down to who's better trained. Oh and also, the guardians for the sake of comparison can't revive.

                            • I think a Guardian's best weapon against a spartan is a super but a spartan would have no trouble detecting the energy build up within the guardian then evading the super. Once the super is gone, a guardian needs to charge it for a bit so... They're done. Without certain perks Guardians don't technically have any shields so one bullet and they're down. Also, a Spartan could have invisibility, bubble, armor lock, extra shield (deployable, overshield, or a jackal shield) jet pack, land mines.. In hand to hand combat a Spartan's speed and reflexes blow a Guardian's out of the water. Not to mention a Spartan can jump higher than a Guardian even with blink, double jump, etc. Spartans for the win.

                              • I voted Halo, BUT let's face it we know next to nothing about what the traveler did to change their bodies, or their technology. Time will tell.
