Vampires are cold and calculating...werewolves are just dumb animals

That might be true, but I really can't imagine a vampire handling a werewolf with his bare hands.

Damn. Just look at us, by the way. Carefully figuring out whether a vampire or a werewolf would be superior in a fight. :lol

 

[Escape Goat]

Werewolf

They can decapitate the vampire too.

 

[beerbelly]

Even the ads agree vampires are stronger! :lol

 

[Daigoro]

Since when can Vampire cast spells?

Vampires can't do anything except suck blood as far as I know. Vampires are overrated and not so dangerous, all you do to defeat them is to not let them get behind you (so they can't suck your blood). And you can just use some basic martial arts to whoop their asses. Or just make sure they can't drink blood so they'll die of plasma depravity. Or just shove some garlic up their mouths.

Werewolf wins.

you obviously know jack shit about Vampires.

they can shape-shift, hypnotize, have super strentgh, intelligence, have familiars, etc. etc. etc.

Vampires > all other monsters.


this thread is hilarious. :lol

A werewolf could drink a couple of gallons of holy water and get "holy piss". Plus I'm sure it could buy a cross somewhere.

:lol :lol :lol :lol

The werewolf is technically stronger but in a fight between a vampire and a werewolf the vampire would win.

All the vampire would need to do when confronting the werewolf is pull out a gun (with silver bullets of course) and shoot him. If the werewolf got too close the vampire can always turn into a fine mist to get away unharmed.

 

[border]

I think that the best a vampire could hope for is to escape the werewolf. Vampires are allergic to/afraid of silver so they cannot have a gun with silver bullets. They can turn into regular wolves, but would still not have the size or strength of a werewolf. They would just have to turn into a bat or whatever and fly away.

All the werewolf needs to do is get close enough to rip off the vampire's head.

 

[Teknopathetic]

Why do people forget the superhuman physical ability! SUPER STRONG FOLKS A VAMPIRE COULD PROBABLY PUNCH IT IN THE SLEEPYHOLE.

 

[Mashing]

Probably a stalemate... a werewolf would never be able to catch a vampire as they can move much much faster than they can (insta teleport FTW). I don't think a vampire could win in a test of strength though so that is why I say it would be a stalemate.

 

[Escape Goat]

Looks like vampires would win here :/

 

[UltraMarioMan]

 

[Mugen]

Hellsing is not a vampire.

Spoiler

He's hte fucking devil himself.

 

[Gattsu25]

I get your point...most anime art does suck

 

[Kabuki Waq]

Looks like vampires would win here :/

he killed a werewolf with a fucking pen in season 5!


+1 vampire

Vampires own werwolves in every possible category. Vampires fly at superspeeds, have all sorts of strength, all sorts of magic blasts, transmutation, etc etc etc. Their bodies are filled with magic (unless youre talking modern Blade/Whedon type Vamps who can do NOTHING).

 

[Raytow]

I think in one of the Ghostbuster episodes, Vampires get in a fight with Werewolves, the aftermath is some kind of Vampire/Werewolf mix, that owned everything IIRC.

 

[border]

When could vampires fly at superspeeds or deliver magic blasts? Yeesh, they get more powers every time I click on this thread.

Seems like everyone is imagining a super-vampire that has all the best parts of every fictional vampire ever portrayed (with few of the weaknesses). As far as I'm concerned we are discussing either classic vampires with Dracula's abilities and weaknesses.....or modern Anne Rice/Buffy vampires with their abilities and weaknesses. Or White Wolf vampires vs. White Wolf werewolves

Around Halloween I was going to make a thread for a Vampire Bruce Lee VS Werewolf Mike Tyson spin-off from a haiku thread. I made a few Vamped-up Bruces but didn't get around to any WW Tysons outside of my then avatar. Here is the VBLs...

I still say WWMT takes it.

 

[Sagitario]

I'm reading 'Interview with the vampire' right now... So, vampires +1

 

[The Faceless Master]

i'd have to say, werewolves have a higher base skill, but a lower top off than vampires...

n00b vamp vs n00b werewolf ... werewolf wins easy, first round KO

low level vamp vs low level werewolf ... werewolf wins pretty handily

mid level vamp vs mid level werewolf ... vamp wins if its not close range, wolf wins in an enclosed arena

high level vamp vs high level werewolf ... vamp wins easily at mid range, and probably barely in close range

top tier vamp vs top tier werewolf ... no contest, wolf gets destroyed

[Deleted member 4784]

I think I remember an old movie (House of Frankenstein?) where the vampire hypnotized the werewolf. Towards the end, the werewolf broke out of the trance and destroyed the vampire when he was in his bat form. So, I guess it depends on how experienced the vampire's powers are and how strong the werewolf is in resisting them? Aren't werewolves supposed to be able to shake off spells and that sort of thing over time?

 

[Ruzbeh]

Werewolves can only do two things:
a) Growl.
b) Slash.

Anne Rices vamps have loads of Magic. Buffys vamps knew nothing but a generic form of martial arts, they seem like they're only vampires in a cosmetic since. :/ . Magic is a pretty well established trait of a Vampire. Chinese vampires for example can kill instantly with single touch. Even in games like The Legacy of Kain or Castlevania there's all sorts of magic around.. Werewolves never do much more than growl and jump.

 

[Dram]

Aren't werewolves faster then vampires? I always figured that would give them the edge

 

[Catzgirl]

OMGGGG, haven't you guys seen Van Hellsing?! Werewolves win, duuuuuh

 

[Ristamar]

Vampire. He'd just give the Werewolf negative levels until he was significantly weaker.

Hm. I had considered making a D&D reference. Apparently I was beaten to the punch.

 

[Tedesco!]

This whole thread about Vampires and Werewolves reminds me of Harry Knowles' review of the Matrix sequels.... :lol

If you're talking Dracula powers, here they are:

http://www.ucs.mun.ca/~emiller/traits.htm

Here are the characteristics of Count Dracula as presented by Bram Stoker in his novel Dracula. Other writers, of course, have altered these to suit their own literary purposes.

Count Dracula possesses the following powers and supernatural traits:

he is potentially immortal

he survives on the blood of others

he has the strength of twenty men

he can shape-shift into the form of a wolf or a bat

he can appear as mist or elemental dust

he has no reflection in a mirror

he casts no shadow

he has hypnotic power over his victims

he can turn victims into vampires

But on the other hand, he does have limitations:

he may not enter a household unless he is invited in

he loses his supernatural powers during daylight hours

he must sleep on the soil of his native land

he can cross running water only at the slack or the flood of the tide

he is repelled by garlic and holy symbols (crucifix, holy wafer)

he can be destroyed by driving a stake through his heart and decapitating him

Note:

1. Even though it is indicated throughout the novel that he is to be destroyed with a wooden stake, this is not how it happens. In the final scene, Harker and Morris dispatch the Count with knives.

2. There is nothing in Stoker's novel to indicate that the vampire can be destroyed by sunlight. Count Dracula moves about freely in the daytime, though with a reduction in his supernatural powers. (The "sunlight" motif entered the legend as a result of the 1922 film "Nosferatu".)
