The Good Doctor Posted June 3 Author Share Posted June 3 Just now, ColonelKillaBee said: Totally wrong, she's basically super human. There's a reason she's able to wield godly artifacts, including Mjolnir which no doesnt have the marvel rules. With or without her guns tools and kit she's easily stomping graham. I don’t know where you’re getting that from. Lara doesn’t inherently have any super powers. She’s just a clever acrobatic explorer who is good with her pistols.

Her vs Thor was a popular one because of the mjolnir thing. Not just games but comics and such too. The movies and reboot games are why people underplay her so you'd really gotta also clarify Which Lara Croft you mean Peak Lara Croft tho could be an Avenger Quote "Even the hardest dick must go flaccid." -Colonelkillabee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColonelKillaBee Posted June 3 Share Posted June 3 [39] Jan Mayen Islands - Mjolnir: Thor's Hammer [Tomb Raider Underworld Cinematic] (youtube.com) Do you think Joshua Graham is beating her now Quote "Even the hardest dick must go flaccid." -Colonelkillabee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Good Doctor Posted June 3 Author Share Posted June 3 1 minute ago, ColonelKillaBee said: Its also worth noting she may have god on her side too lol she found a literal stairway to heaven I’m not including anything like that, for obvious reasons. I’m just taking base Lara Croft, like she is when you’re playing some middle level in TR2, exploring tombs, hiding behind pillars, and running from lions and such. Melee isn’t really a big focus in the original TR games, and in the newer ones, Lara typically relies on stealth and ambushes when she gets in close. Fist fights are not really her forte.

She wouldn’t have the hammer or any of that in rounds 1 or 2. Quote * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColonelKillaBee Posted June 3 Share Posted June 3 Joshua Graham got that dog in him, certainly but we also gotta ask is this peak graham or the burned one. The burned one is definitely not surviving against her in hand to hand combat.

Graham could’ve killed the Trex as well. But true enough on the stones. She has bizarre pushing strength. However, it doesn’t translate to her melee fighting.

Because they wanted to make an Uncharted Esq action game instead of a slower exploration/puzzle solving game. There are not very many human enemies in TR1 at all. But the ones who are there do give Lara trouble. Quote * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OG Lara is exclusively a gunfighter. She never fights with the strength of the hulk even though her puzzle solving block pushing would suggest that she should.

You gotta take away and scale her down a lot to make this a fair fight for graham and assume she's just a 130 pound weak chick but she's like Beatrix Kiddo tough Quote "Even the hardest dick must go flaccid." -Colonelkillabee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He trained the best melee fighting force in the wasteland, and in gameplay can beat down loads of tribals with the butt of his gun. In-game, both classic Lara and modern Lara struggles with melee unless she’s ambushing. It’s only the "middle" Lara from the Legends trilogy who is the exception to this, but I should’ve clarified that I was asking about classic Lara.

The Good Doctor Posted June 3 Author Share Posted June 3 A fairer enemy for Samurai Jack might be Corvo from Dishonored. Though "time stop" is so busted that it’s hard to think of many human enemies who could beat him. Quote * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
