definitely the duck, considering it is a large soulslike boss - you need to find its weak points and dodge-roll around its blind spots to exploit them I think it's got low mobility around its unprotected ankles, and if you can get past the teeth beak, you have a good shot at success

I'm sure duck sized horses would be very puntable. Do they move at a relative walking speed of a duck? I'm sure I could kite around some large natural barrier long enough to pick them systematically off one by one, a la Nazi Zombies

I don't know how to dodge roll irl and I've never learned my iframes, so I'm going with the 100 horses

The horses are kinda in to like westernwear and thats cool but i feel like people have generally seen it. The ducks are kinda doing this like avant garde fisherman-core thing though that you are only really starting to see with sillage and smaller ‘iykyk’ sort of brands. I think if it were reddit mfa i probably would be wanting to face against that more fashion forward stuff cause people wouldnt really get it and id wear something more classic, but in here the demo has definitely shifted, and i’d be much more confident of my fitbattle odds against against the horses and id eek it out by leaning in to my more fashion forward side.

oh wait this is a fit battle? that makes it harder

Btw the horse-sized duck has a larger hitbox

horses die IRL the moment they break an ankle or something one wide sweep and you get a 25 killstreak xd

The duck would be unbeatable, as it would have the widest fit I can't respec and I don't know if I'm leveling up any further
zacheadams
zacheadams9mo ago
low center of gravity of being a small target makes that a very different situation

Duck size horses seems most manageable. More a test of endurance than fighting a giant duck
mewball
mewball9mo ago
giant duck for sure
SquillyFerrell
SquillyFerrell9mo ago
Giant duck is still a bird with its brittle bird bones, could handily just break it apart piece meal; the horses though are more robust and could swarm you easily

idk a goose is basically a larger duck and those can still hurt you. scaled all the way up to horse size I think the duck might be too much for the average person to take down

I don’t want to fight either of these creatures, they sound too cute to beat up
Thonyfst

Bold to assume you're winning, not just surviving
SquillyFerrell
SquillyFerrell9mo ago
yeah but a hundred horses? i just dont see a way that thats more survivable, especially since theyre basically gonna be more robus t with solid bones and tons of muscle
chase_vv
chase_vv9mo ago
guess depends on the duck but the horses would be pretty small it'd be like just one good kick for each horse to take them out. not sure i'd be able to get all 100 while also outrunning the swarm but i feel it's a better chance to come out on top than the giant duck \
SquillyFerrell
SquillyFerrell9mo ago
See i think the duck is much better odds, you just need to cripple it piecemeal by going for each bit one by one
Thonyfst
Thonyfst9mo ago
Peace might be possible with the swarm, death is inevitable with the duck
SquillyFerrell
SquillyFerrell9mo ago
with how often its going to attack with the head too you have good odds at just being able to destroy the neck
chase_vv
chase_vv9mo ago
still think a duck that huge would just steamroll a person just based on size and weight. if you hit its eye it gets even madder, enters boss phase 2 and its over

Didn't read any of the above. I don't need to. Obviously it's the horses. Horses legs are weak as shit for their size and at a duck scale their joints would be less stable than the most inbred apple headed chihuahuas, and they don't have the chi's teeth or bravery. Easy

I feel like big duck you kinda have to go for legs but those wing smacks gonna hurt Small horse you just sorta sweep

The strength of a duck is its bite. The strength of a horse is its kick. I would rather withstand many tiny kicks over one enormous bite.

Imagine how good the meat from a horse sized duck would be Honestly it would probably be worse than a normal duck More meat less fat less skin
raisinpie

that would be really neat tho I can eat a Peking duck by myself, I could use more

Okay but horses are afraid of like puddles and plastic bags and bunnies. Sneeze too loud and you'll probably win that fight.

How much hide can you get from the horses if you have to work that small... is it enough for a decent jacket? 🤔

One can extrapolate that a horse with a mass relative to that of any average duck would likely possess a similar surface area (given some margin of error)
