Well, since Obreck is working in Eyedol, from Killer Instinct, I thought it was appropiate to do this.

Which of the two bosses of KI (Gargos or Eyedol) is (in your opinion) better, stronger, cooler, made of moar win, etc? Who would win a fight between them two?

I pick Eyedol. For starters, I like his concept way more than Gargos'. Not everyday you see a towering, damn strong two-headed beast. And to ice it up, he has a mace  ;P. Gargos on the other side, is your generic "demonish" bad guy. I mean, how original is a gargoyle-like creature ???.

Also, back in the day, I remember I had way more trouble against Eyedol than with Gargos. I really hated when he Killer comboed me (there goes half life) AND, while I was way up in the sky, he began healing himself  --;. Besides, Eyedol had his 80-Ultra-FTW. Yeah, while it was a glitch, it was something amuzing. The only thing I really found annoying of Gargos was that you had to launch him (uppercut, something like that) to actually defeat him. So spamming projectiles until he was a goner was not a good idea  :S.

Anyways, what's your opinion?

Agreed...Gargos' design is generic, especially in light of predecessors like Ghouls & Ghosts, Dungeons & Dragons, and Demon's Crest (ie. Firebrand/Red Arremer).

Eyedol ofcoarse, for his style and down right bad assery. Gargos was tougher though IMO, because he regenerated at a very rapid rate.

I don't think I ever played up to Gargos (although his stage music's pretty good). If I did, it wasn't that memorable.

Eyedol.

( ゚ o゚) It's Urza!

I beat the hell out of Gargos when I first played against him in the arcade (a perfect with Saberwulf).

Eyedol was much more of a challenge.

Ecchi, it calls to me...

Eyedol's better. Gargos is one of the few bosses that is actually very low tier in a player's hands, and pretty much reviled by the vast majority.

Eyedol, of course.  :P
Eyedol is more... Eyedol than Gargus. ;P

Eyedol.Gargos was too easy to beat even with the game on Hard.Eyedol on the other hand is hard to beat even with the game on 2 stars or higher.Plus Eyedol is easier to use heck he even has an ending.I don't even know if Gargos has an ending because I don't even bother to use him.

He had one. But it's your generic "omg I'm a bad guy and now no one can stop me from conquering/destroying teh world for the lulz!"

Alright Are you talking about Eyedol or Gargos?
If it's Eyedol yes he has an ending.I did a code to play as Eyedol.

Eyedol had a knockoff of Blanka's ending from SF2, right?

I never used Blanka so I don't know his ending.Eyedol's ending is when he meets his mom and she keeps on calling him Billy.Eyedol Says Who's Billy?Eyedol's Mom says your my son Billy I gave you that toy Club for your tenth birthday don't you remember me?Then Eyedol says apparently not and knocks her out and he does his winpose when he beat you.

i like eyedol better. gargos was easy and eyedol was more challenging.
I need a revolution.

Animugen

Yeah you can't even do a combo to Eyedol because he breaks it as soon as it starts.If you have the difficulty all the way on high that is.Furthermore he'll combo your ass and it doesn't get weaker as his combo goes on.Furthermore he'll hit you with his 15 hit combo.He did that to me and boy that hurt.

Eyedol.  Gargos was piss easy for me, and I'm not even that good at fighting games in general.  I could count on one hand the number of times I've beat Eyedol.

Plus, I always thought that Eyedol had the better ending and death... but only for the arcade.  SNES version can suck it.
