Who is Deadliest?

Sombra, the king of the wastes to the north, who ruled the crystal ponies with an iron hoof or Luna, princess of the night and one part of the Equestrian Diarchy. Which of these two dark monarchs is stronger? To find out we call upon the experts of both Luna and Sombra to submit information. Representing Sombra is Grogar, his respected teacher.

"I believe that my student will easily take down Luna. She is but a child throwing tantrums while Sombra learned to control his emotions and stay cool." Grogar says confidently. Representing Luna is Nightwing, part of her elite "dragon" guards.

"The princess has lived for far longer than Sombra and she has gone into history while Sombra was forgotten completely" Nightwing boasts. Let us see if he can put his word to the test. First we will analyze Luna's stats

Princess Luna

Type: Super Alicorn

Special Talent: Moving the Moon and controlling the night

Height: 5'6"

Weight: 900 lbs.

Out of touch with modern times

The more war-like of the royal sisters

Went evil as Nightmare Moon and was banished before being healed

"As an alicorn Luna has vastly more power than a regular unicorn" Nightwing says while drawing an arcane symbol. "Since there is not method to measure magic we go by feats. It took five ponies and the power of a runic circle to move the Moon in ancient times while Luna can do it by herself." he says, emphasizing the power of the circle. "Princess Luna is also a master at transfiguration and can change herself and other objects with ease" he says while demonstrating a clip of Luna turning into smoke and turning toys into spiders. "Luna can also fly at an average speed" Nightwing says without much flare. Grogar snorts at the flight comment.

"We get that she's great but she has weaknesses, yes? So get to them!" the evil goat hisses impatiently. Nightwing scowls before continuing.

"Unfortunately, the Princess has a temper that causes her to lose sight of things and go berserk when things don't go her way" the Lunar guard grumbles dejectedly. "The Princess can also be somewhat flamboyant at times, but that's it!" Nightwing finishes abruptly. Grogar chuckles at Nightwing's visible awkwardness before stepping forward and starting his own presentation.

King Sombra

Type:Unicorn

Special Talent: Unknown but very good at creating dark crystal constructs

4'11"

661 Lbs

A sadist

Expert in dark magic

Was killed when his body exploded due to the Crystal Heart

"While still a unicorn, Sombra is much stronger than any other unicorn and required both royal sisters to put down" Grogar says before creating a dark crystal. "Sombra draws his power from these crystals and can use them to make invisible passages, false doors, and illusions. The crystals can be fooled with dark magic however" Grogar says before demonstrating the crystal's power and covering the room in darkness. "However, Sombra's greatest asset is his mind which takes after my own. He will not play games with an opponent and will kill them the first chance he has. This mind also lets him set traps that can fool even Twilight Sparkle" Grogar says, finishing off with a clank from the bells on his collar. Nightwing raised his hoof, grinning cheekily.

Grogar did not give him an answer. "Unfortunately, my pupil is not perfect. He can get caught in bloodlust and stop being pragmatic and is not as mobile as the Princess" Grogar growls like the words are venom

Now that we have our data let the fight begin!

Luna looks about the palace chambers, attempting to find the unicorn king who had destroyed this kingdom.

She grows tired of waiting and screams into the halls "Is anypony there?!" Luna doesn't have to search much longer as a crystaline shard just barely misses impaling her skull. Before she can react she is tackled to the ground and pinned by crystals around her legs. Sombra leaps onto her and grins before taking a bite out of the helpless alicorn. Luna screams in agony as the monstrous unicorn gulps down a chunk of flesh from her side. While Sombra tastes the blood, Luna turns her bonds into flowers and blasts Sombra back with a bolt of magic. Sombra loses his manic expression and begins to concentrate his power. Luna lets out a yell and calls down a meteor shower on Sombra. Luna smirks expecting there to be a corpse where she shot at, however there is just a hole crackling with dark magic. Luna scowls before flying into the hole.

Sombra sees Luna on crystal screens and grins. He won't go wild this time. He set all his traps to activate before falling into a meditative state. Surely, Luna wouldn't survive the vicious onslaught.

Luna dodged back and forth as crystal spears shot from the walls. The rooms before hoof (falling roof, fearful crystal beasts, and mentally broken ponies) had exhausted Luna and so she wasn't fast enough to dodge all of them. The spears struck Luna and left minor cuts. Strangely, the pain simply made Luna fly into a rage. She let out a cry as a power wave shot from her body and obliterated the entire lower castle. Here eyes glowing white with fury, Luna swooped up the tower intending to kill the tricky unicorn.

Luna burst through the door and started shooting blasts instantly. Her fury was only quelled when the tower was completely destroyed. She then heard mocking laughter from the other tower as Sombra laughed at Luna's navigational error. Luna didn't think and simply charged at a speed that Sombra was not expecting. She tackled him to the floor and started blasting away at the king, yelling to punctuate every blow. By the time she had finished Sombra was covered in blood from hundred of cuts and bruises across his body. Luna got to her feet preparing the killing blow. Her horn glowed dark blue as she created a sword of magic. Shunk! Sombra's eyes widened then closed in relaxation when he realized the sound had been a crystal impaling Luna. Luna didn't even scream and simply writhed on the dark crystal while coughing up blood and vomit. While Sombra was meditating he was also concentrating his power to create a crystal which could kill an alicorn. Sombra thought to himself what fun he could have once the horn was cut off. The ponies say you can still hear Sombra torturing Luna to this very day

The winner is Sombra! While Luna had the advantage of surprise her natural flamboyance ruined her ambush and allowed Sombra to get the jump on her. The battle would've been over here had Sombra not given into his blood lust and tortured her. This allowed Luna to bring her greater power to bear and call upon her powers of the night. Sombra however was able to escape as he has planned for situations like this. While Luna is too powerful for his traps to kill her they do weaken and stall her, allowing Sombra to summon his crystals.  When Luna flies into a rage due to frustration she has sealed her own fate by not watching out for any enchantments.

"Sombra is the best student I ever had and I knew that dealing with a jumped up toddler would be easy" Grogar says to an upset Nightwing

The winner is Sombra
