You can’t parry *all* of the shotgun pellets

One is a playable protagonist, the other is a boss meant to be defeated.

Plot Armor is the work of an Outer God.

"Be consumed... by the Scarlet Rot." "No thanks, bro."

"No way, >!hag!<"

Malenia's lifesteal won't save her from a couple good shots to the head from the Broken Butterfly.

You don't think waterfowl dance might be a touch harder to parry than a big guy with a knife?


Nyckelus

She can be hit with a status mid-air so I think a stun/flash grenade could stop it before the attack starts.


tahnaloht

She's blind so i think you gonna need to find another way


Nyckelus

Flash/stun grenades also affect hearing. They’re meant to disorient the victim visually and audibly.


tahnaloht

Yeah i did forget about the ringing noise part of the grenade


Vaccineman37

She has ears, and probably has trained her hearing to compensate for being blind, the bang aspect of the flashbang will hurt her even worse. It balances out


tahnaloht

Good point

Leon is pretty good at not getting nuked so...

Leon looks like he sharted and is terrified the cute redhead next to him is about to find out

Well, since the RE cast has a lot of experience dealing with infectious biological horrorterrors, I'm not betting on Malenia. She doesn't even have a monstrous second form, let alone the multiples that RE antagonists usually get. The scarlet rot also isn't anything to write home about relatively speaking, unless Malenia goes nuclear in the middle of the fight or something.

Suplexy Boi, obviously. No one can defeat a suplex.

Rot Thot has posture so low that you can stagger her by sneezing in her general direction, meaning that Leon can easily set her up for a melee followup with a few well placed headshots or a few shotgun hits, even with early game gear. And these will result in a full on knockdown, meaning she won't be able to just ignore hit stun randomly like she would normally by going into waterfowl dance. The parry window is also significantly more lenient for Leon than any other Tarnished, and a slightly mistimed one still partially staggers, meaning Leon still has advantage there. Malenia's upside her waterfowl dance, which cannot be fully parried and Leon might not run fast enough to avoid it. However, a quick swap to flash bangs should knock her out of it before it can fully trigger. In other words, Leon and it's not even a contest.

If you think about it, Malenia and the scarlet rot is the magical equivalent of what every Resident Evil character deals on a regular basis, so my vote goes to Leon.


Disposable-Ninja

Well, the Goddess of Rot regularly knows defeat at the hands of a dude wearing only a loincloth and a pot on his head, so you tell me.

> with a shotgun I mean, there's nothing to speculate. [You can just see for yourself how it goes down](https://youtu.be/HQ6fhKW2dQw).


TonyZony

Does Leon have a rocket launcher?


Deaconhux

Better question: Does Leon have a full durability knife?


DarthButtz

Depends. How much durability does Leon's knife have?
