[Discussion] Law vs Zoro

[Going up on a Tuesday]

Distance: 10M.
Location: Dressrosa.
Restrictions: No swords for Zoro and no DF for Law.


I say Law still wins.

 

[Hexuze]

F*cking stupid restriction. Law wins easily, I don't know where people got the idea that Law's swordplay is terrible. Ofc Zoro is a better swordsman though.

Calm down, Law has little to no hand to hand combat feats apart from filler feats. So I couldn't take away his sword aswell.

 

[Punk Hazard]

Law wins, even if Zoro had his swords and Law had his DF.

 

[Bogard]

Zoro is a powerhouse. Even without his swords, i don't see Law defeating him without his DF

 

[Forbidden Tale]

Pretty weird restrictions. Not sure.

without restrictions, Law wins with high to extrem high diff, but on this scenario not sure.

Is bare handed Zoro better than Swordsman Law?

Highly doubt it. Law cut through Doflamingo's Haki, which could tank even a Jet Gatling from Luffy. Zoro hasn't shown much hand-to-hand combat skill, while Law is adapt at his sword to duel Smoker and fend off Doflamingo. Law has the speed/strength feat of stopping Overheat as well. What you're doing is taking away Zoro's only adept means of fighting, while Law is still adept at using his sword. Even if Zoro is a tank, there isn't much he can do to Law without his swords while there's a lot Law can do to him without his DF.

That's true, but it's hard to believe that Zoro without his swords don't have anything under his sleeves.

But yeah good points, Law is overall better without his DF than Zoro without his swords, at very least he showed more.

It's not completely true. Zoro develop his swords techniques on his own to begin with. He never really learnt the santoryuu style for example. He is the one who created it. He invents in function of the battles or situations. Likely because of this, he asked Mihawk to teach him the way of swords because Mihawk was the first real trainer he ever had. Similarly during the Davy Back fight where swords were restricted he developed a Mutoryuu(or swordsless)-style and his attacks were pretty effective, comparable to Sanji even. His physical strength back in alabasta was nothing to laugh at and he was at his weakest back then(compared to now for example). I don't think his physical strength and style without his swords should be underestimated

I can kind of see it. Swordsmanship is Zoro's passion, and while he has a lot of strength, they are his main means. The most I can see him doing is delivering some hard punches and kicks without much skill, maybe like that of a crude boxer. Eh, maybe I'm underestimating him.

Physical strength isn't gonna do him much good when he can barely hit Law. I'm sure if Law can fend off Doflamingo with his sword, he can do the same to Zoro.

 

[ChrisWolf]

I think law would win swords or not, at this point in time zoro just isn't capable of figuring out how to handle op op fruit powers and him w

Should I restrict Law's sword aswell...Poor Zoro.

Restrictions as a whole is a pretty lame concept IMO.

I tend to agree, why the hell would you restrict them? just let them fight as they are with all the abilities and advantages they possess

That is assuming Law is faster than Zoro, something you've no way to prove and i highly doubt it

I know but this match would be lame without them, at this point everyone should know that Law is stronger than Zoro. Especially after this chapter.

Well, Law could move and intercept Doflamingo's Overheat, which is a better speed feat than anything Zoro has shown, so for now at least, Law is portrayed to be faster than Zoro.

zoro was able to dodge kuma`s light speed (dont care if prople think it`s an exaggerate kuma said he pushs the air with speed of light ) air shots completely and that more impressive than law`s over heat tank and that was pre ts zoro are you seriuosly suggesting aw has better reaction speed than zoro ?

But then was completely unable to escape or dodge Kizaru. Kuma's air pushes were NOT light speed, please, you have to be better than this.
