Lllllllllllet's get ready to-

Fine. It's time for the championship match of the NLR!

Lunarus Solaris Nexus, the Element of Honor.

And Lolk, Changeling General.

He's Nex and I'm Blaze and it's our job to analyze their weapons, armor and skills to determine who would win a death battle.

Lolk

Race: Changeling

Specialty: Manipulation

Weakness: Over thinking

Alright, we're not going to sit here and boor you with the stuff you already know so we'll just skip right to it.

No one knows where he's from. All we know is that he's a changeling.

His main weapon is his DMR. Up close, he uses wing blades to rip his foe to ribbons.

He's cunning and manipulative but not over confident in his skills. He knows that over confidence can be the down fall of fighter

He also has a stinger tail that is rarely used but if stabbed in the right place, can kill instantly.

He can manipulate the terrain around him and cause hallucinations. He's also fast and agile enough to evade most heavy attacks.

And to put a grenade in somepony's tail.

"Ka-boom."

Lunarus Solaris Nexus

Race: Unicorn/robo-pony.

Specialty: Gorilla Strategy and dark magic

Weakness: metaphorical Monophobia (aka. Sombra's remains)

Nexus is the unicorn leader of the Evening Guard.

He's also the Element of Honor and a master of CQC. His weapons include two two shot pistols hidden in his legs and a set

of electrified hidden blades that can be used as ballistic knifes.

His magical skills include strong shield spells, a lightning spell known as the Spark of Honor and a manipulation spell that makes the one its cast on see their greatest fear that he calls Shadow Thoughts.

He also has a set of mechanical wings that he can use to fly as a bellow average pegasus in the short run but they are strong enough to make him agile in a dogfight.

He is also cursed by a remain of Sombra that, when near death, comes out for thirty seconds and increases all of his stats by 20% before needing a twenty second cool down. This can only be used once and leaves him almost completely open for attack. He can also hear the shadows as a form of early warning.

And being a master of entering the mind, he's built up metal barriers to keep others out.

His main armor is the usual guard armor but the metal plating of his robotic legs can take a musket at point blank range but anything stronger will go through.

Nexus also has a nasty trick up his sleeve. When one of his legs is damaged beyond use, he can disconnect it and it will detonate in ten seconds with a pound of C4.

Why you ask?

Because he doesn't want anypony else using his designs for anything other than their intended purpose. But that's only in his particular set.

Nexus is loyal and honest to a fault. He's laid back but knows his limits. He shows no fear and doesn't back down from a fight.

"Fear? I am Fear."

Okay, the combatants are set, let's end this tournoment once and for all.

It's time for THE CHAMPIONSHIP REPUBLIC DEATHBATTAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLL!!!!!

At the southernmost tip of Equestria, at the outskirts of the Badlands, A dark red Changeling with a DMR on his back lay prone behind a few rocks, searching down the barrel for any threats; especially those of a royal blue variety. A half mile to the north, on the other side of the rock that Lolk was looking, that threat was on his way. Nexus had been tracking him for days now since the death of Night Striker and Nexus was looking for pay back. As quickly and quietly as he could, Nexus moved through the open desert towards the rock where he saw Lolk duck and hide.

Lolk, unfortunately not as gullible as Aegis, heard him as soon as he got within a hundred yards. He rolled a few feet away from the rock and peaked over with his sites leveled on Nexus. Nexus vanished in a flash of light and reappeared three feet ahead of where he was. Lolk leveled his sites again and fired. Nexus flashed three feet to his front left before jumping at him. Lolk was able to dodge out of the way of Nexus as he landed five yards away from him with his duel pistols drawn.

FIGHT!

Nexus was the first to fire this time. At this range, Nexus's shot was spot on, but Lolk was ready and fired one of his own shots at Nexus. Nexus was hardly able to put his shield up over his head as the bullet sped towards him. Lolk's bullet hit Nexus' lead ball and split it down the middle before continuing towards him. The bullet ricocheted off of the shield and Nexus rolled to the other side of the rock and hopped jumped over as Lolk stood over it to shoot. Nexus landed behind Lolk and leveled his right pistol to the Changelings head before firing.

The second the shot left the barrel, Lolk turned to smoke and dissipated. It was an illusion! Nexus wheeled around and was able to duck just before Lolk to fire his DMR into Nexus cranium. Lolk fired several more shots rapidly as Nexus continued to bobbed and weaved closer. Nexus flashed away as Lolk fired his eighth shot and reappeared with a metal hoof on his right shoulder. Nexus' horn glowed bright blue as he flashed both of them away. The two of them reappeared hundreds of yards away in the center of a massive creator.

As the two came back from their teleportation, they flew back from one another and slid to a stop about twenty yards apart. Nexus drew his pistols and fired his two remaining shots. Lolk fired his and intercepted Nexus' bullets. With both of their amo reserves gone, they discarded their weapons, still standing on their hind legs.

"This is getting old." Lolk said extending his wings.

"I couldn't agree more." Nexus said spreading his and drawing his blades.

"Let's end this."

The two pushed their wings and flew full speed ahead at each other. Nexus barreled rolled over Lolk and slashed with his electrified blades. Lolk ducked an inch and lifted up his wings. Nexus couldn't avoid his attack fully. Nexus was fast enough to slide past the blades of death but his wings weren't. Lolk's blades slashed Nexus' mechanized variants and caused him to spin out of control. Nexus slammed right shoulder first into a boulder and nearly disconnected his foreleg from his contact plate.

Nexus landed on his unsteady on his now three useful legs and looked up to see that Lolk had vanished. Nexus let the sounds of the night flow into him and tried to hear where Lolk was hiding. But nothing came everything was silent. Nexus quickly closed off his mind and used Shadow Thoughts to hunt for Lolk. Nexus could feel a massive amount of dark magic coming up behind him and shot a mental bolt into Lolk's mind.

Lolk shouted in pain and reeled back just before he reached Nexus. Nexus spun on his left hindleg and planted a roundhouse kick into Lolk's jaw. Lolk spun back disoriented as Nexus flipped a small panel on his right foreleg. A pin popped up and he used his magic to pull it. The wires disconnected and let the leg drop from his body. Nexus wrapped it in a magical field and threw it straight towards Lolk just as he recovered.

Nexus put up his shield and held his breath as the leg detonated with the pound of C4 hidden inside. Nexus let down his shield as the sounds of the night filtered back into his ears. They were foreboding, warning him. Nexus jumped from the dust cloud as Lolk tried landing a flying kick. Nexus could see his wings were gone, the only delicate part of his body. That was all Nexus had time to register as Lolk teleported in front of him and unleashed a volley of punches and kicks. Nexus was only able to block some due to his missing leg.

Each punch was like a sledge hammer hitting him. Even under his Evening Guard armor and the living metal plate on his chest, the blows shook his bones. He could feel his ribs bruise and crack as each blow he couldn’t block hit home. Lolk was smart, he wasn't going for the face, he wanted Nexus to feel pain. Lolk was slowly pushing Nexus back to the other side of the crater as his ribs started giving way.

With one final punch, Lolk dented his metal plate under his armor and broke one of Nexus' ribs and punctured his left lung. Nexus gasped and hunched over before putting up a shield. Lolk tried as hard as he could to break the shield before Nexus could apply any healing magic to himself. Using his magic, Lolk lifted one of the boulders over Nexus with great strain. Nexus saw this and knew he was a sitting duck with nowhere to go. He stopped his healing spell and braced himself for the massive impact.

Lolk released the boulder and let it slam Nexus like a pile driver. The boulder cracked and crumbled as it crushed the shield Nexus was under. Lolk let out a cocky chuckle and started to walk away. That is until the ground started to shake. Lolk looked back to the pile of rocks that was supposed to be Nexus with a knit brow. The shattered boulder suddenly exploded with absolutely no dust cloud. In a small crater of his own, Nexus stood, his coat navy blue and his eyes red and serpent like. He had reached Lunar Umbra.

Lolk twitched as Nexus shot a bolt of black magic towards Lolk. Lolk couldn't dodge it, the bolt slammed into him like a solid mass and threw him into the wall of the crater. He looked up in time to see Nexus with his hindleg flying in his direction in a flying kick of his own. Lolk rolled out of the dent he made and prepared himself. Nexus shattered more stone with his flying kick but didn't stop for a moment. He pushed off of the wall and threw himself at Lolk with full force and a shout of anger.

Lolk deflected Nexus' second kick and started parrying as many punches and kicks as he could. Each one that hit was like another one of Nexus' bolts hitting him. Strom clouds started to form overhead as Nexus continued his onslaught. Lolk tired to counter a punch, but left himself wide open. Nexus hopped up and used his piston powered hindlegs and pushed Lolk along the ground. Nexus would have attacked again, but his coat turned dark blue and his eyes returned to their normal color. He let out a sigh and started breathing heavy in exhaustion.

Lolk saw this and ran at Nexus. He grabbed Nexus by the throat and slammed him into the ground. He stood over the cyber-pony with reeled around his stinger tail. With a quick motion, he thrust his tail towards Nexus' head. Nexus wouldn't go down that easily however; he pulled his hindlegs back and caught the stinger a foot before it reached his head. Nexus' upper thighs weren't robotic so the strain was being put on his muscles instead of the legs themselves. The stinger started inching towards him as he shouted in protest, trying to hold back the inevitable.

Lolk strained himself trying to kill Nexus as well. He almost never used his tail and it wasn't his strongest feature. The stinger was now inches from Nexus' eyes and he was running out of options. Then Nexus remembered; he still had his left blade. He drew it and slashed at the tail. He lobbed the head of the stinger off and put his hoofs under Lolk's stomach. With the assistance of the pistons, Nexus launched Lolk skyward. Nexus pointed his left blade up and used his telekinesis to pull the trigger on his hidden blade at Lolk just as he started to slow down.

The blade flew straight and true landing in between his eyes. Nexus got to his three legs and mustered all of his magical strength. The clouds rumbled for a millisecond before unleashing a bolt of lightning directly above the red changeling. The bolt instantly hit the electrified piece of steel in the changeling's head, through his body and to Nexus' horn. As the thunder rolled across the sky, Nexus' blade fell to the ground with no changeling attached. Nexus fell onto his side panting in exhaustion.

"Lights out."

M-M-M-M-M-MONSTER KILL!

Holly fuck! Call Chrysalis! We're down a changeling and a host!

*Aegis runs in with stitches on his neck* Hey! Am I too late for the job?

Aren't you dead?

I got better. I saw the whole thing. Anyways, this was probably the closest battle that will ever occur in Republic Deathbattle history.

That's right everypony, less than a point decided this fight!

Lolk is a capable fighter and tactician but has never faced somepony with the same capacity for combat as him. His speed and close range combat were his greatest allies, but his most effective spells weren't enough to distract Nexus.

Kind of hard to trick the one that teaches ponies how to trick ponies.

And even though Lolk could hold his own against Lunar Umbra, he couldn't help but overlook Nexus' last blade.

Not only that, Nexus has held his own against the General of the Changings and King Sombra.

What really did Lolk in was his misunderstanding of Nexus' strength. Even after being crushed under a rock, Nexus could still fight and stay alive.

His ability to take a beating helped him stay alive long enough to take advantage of Lolk's misjudgment of Nexus' abilities and weaponry.

The winner and Champion is Lunarus Solaris Nexus.
