Round 2! Max Payne vs. Sub Zero

Arena:
The Infernal Cube - A giant block of stone, drifting endlessly throughout the void. The inside is a webwork of stone platforms, walkways, hallways, stairs and ladders, all interweaving into an impossible labyrinth. The inside of the cube knows nothing of the way our physical laws operate, and therefore, gravity is warped. One person can be standing on a platform at the bottom of the chamber, while another stands "upside down" on a staircase on the opposite side without feeling any distortions whatsoever. A combatant placed inside of the cube is a truly unfortunate individual.

In the Red Corner, armed with an impressive assortment of firearms, bullet-time capabilities and a penchant for film noire narrative! The widowed detective, the hunted hunter, from Max Payne: Max Payne!!!

And in the Blue Corner, armed with an assortment of ice-based attacks, superhuman speed and durability, and a bevy of horrifying ways to mutilate his opponent's battered corpse! The arctic ninja, the freezing avenger, from Mortal Kombat: Sub-Zero!!!

As the two enter the distorted realm, they catch one another's eye and carefully figure out their plan of action. As Max sprays an assortment of bullets towards Sub Zero, a huge ice barracade is formed between two pillars and blocks the pre-emptive attack. Again, they eye one another up, and the battle commenses...

Max would bullet-time/shoot Sub Zero in the head while the orb flies toward him and he would either dodge it or get frozen for a second or two..

Well it's impossible to know what the gravity will do to affect the bullets. Max Payne has his hands full though because sub zero is so much faster but he is still human (not sure) so he will die sooner or later.

Max is toast. Sub-Zero(with mask) has his sliding power as well as Ice Clone. If bullets worked, they would simply hit the Ice Clone or Sub-Zero could slide under them and towards Payne. Payne at close quarters combat would be history. SZ freezes his gun and then rips his head off.

There are little options for poor Max.

For one thing, a close range combat would not be anything Max would even attempt. His main weapon arsenal is guns and bullet time, so why would he even bother getting wtihin 30 feet or so of Sub Zero?

This certainly isn't going to be some easy victory for anyone, and certainly a few shot bullets from Max won't cut it this time, but rather this battle will be one of maneuverability, precisely timed attacks, and planned out movements. If Max can use his movements, bullet time, and shooting capabilities to his advantage he definitely stands a chance, but it won't be easy. Sub Zero has much to his disposal and his reflexes are certainly on his side in this battle. It will certainly be a good battle.

Sub-Zero does not only need close-range combat. Vertical ice blast, and Polar Blast can both be used at long distances. And, Ice Clone could be used to take the bullets. While Sub dodges, Max will run out of ammo. In that split second, he's dead. One of the following attacks can get him. He's frozen for a few seconds...


FATALITY!

That awesome one where he lifts Max over his head while frozen and snaps him in half. OH HELL YEAH!
