Samurai VS Knight

[fei]

I hope people do realize that the Knights would pulverize the Samurai at any time. Samurai are not even close to what Anime is showing us.

Historically accurate version:

Strengh > Knight
Speed > Knight
Durability > Knight
Battle IQ > Knight
Combat speed > Knight
Training > Knight
Skills > Knight
Weapon > Knight
Armor > Knight
Flexibility > Knight

Knight ~ Low Diff

[raphaelpillinger]

I would put strenth on the knight because He must fight and wear pretty heavy armor also the knight is better equipt for combat my win goes to the knight

[PhanthomKnight]

Strength and speed go to knight. Knights have a lot of mobility in plate armor.

[DMSLYER]

samurai were just knights with really fragile swords and less armor

[Fan_Of_Things]

Depends on which knight and which samurai they changed in history many times

[lylg]

literally the knight could humiliate and destroy the samurai using only his fists of steel

[durendalarcas]

A Templar Knight would smack down a Samurai no doubt about it. Keep in mind that the Japanese have a considerable height and weight disadvantage as well.

[slippercat]

IQ can vary, they are overall matched in offense in my opinion, and most plate armor is just as light if not lighter.

[agreeable-youth]

People forget that knights are basically medieval super soldiers, trained from a young age just like samura but with a freaking big sword that would destroy the katana and plate armor that can stop a crossbow bolt.

The items that determine the outcome of this battle are:
Weapon performance.
Armor performance.
Adaptability to the environment.
Battlefield tactics.
Equipment and tactical costs.

It would be neat if the title was 'Images of samurai and knights in pop culture'. Because anime and movies have nothing to do with reality, you know.

[War_netizens]

As for fighting style, I prefer samurai

[assassinbill]

No knight wins the material used by the Knights for armour and weapons was way better than what the samurai use and a Knight in full armour is almost impossible to kill with a sword the only reason they still use swords is because they have the pay for their own armour some of them are not rich to Pay for the armour

[russellskelton]

If it was a no armour fight that would be the outcome

[Nooneisusingthischannel]

Fact: Knights were well trained, they had more protectable armor, good weapons.

Knight ~ Mid - High Diff

[AyaanCharak]

Those who are saying that knight’s armour is an advantage, a samurai will not hit the knight directly in the plate, he will find weak spots

[Devin]

Knight: bro am strong How did samurai get it
