KillerKingBakudan 702 July 11, 2015 Share July 11, 2015 I know it's totally random. I've been having such a blast playing the Predator in Mortal Kombat X, and when I remembered they haven't hunted sorcerers before, that made me think.... what if they hunted magical ponies? It's hard to fathom this species targetting a group of animals that are happy and friendly for the most part. But let's say one of them was in Ponyville during Slice of Life, and observed the Mane Six kicking the bug bear's ass while he was cloaked. After seeing such a huge monster get beat, it'd be easy to conclude that all these ponies would make good trophies. What do you think the outcome would be? And just for argument's sake, Discord's off limits. No fun having him send the Predator to another dimension by snapping his fingers. No questions asked.

Black Sabbath 2,486 July 11, 2015 Share July 11, 2015 I think the ponies would win. They are able to fly, use magic and are somewhat strong. Ok, so maybe the earth ponies would lose to a predator but the pegasi, alicorns and unicorns would probably win. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyoshi Frost Wolf 41,632 July 11, 2015 Share July 11, 2015 The ponies most likely have plentiful magic to negate many of a Predator's techniques. Cloaking? Magic wins. Missiles? Magic shields. Blades? More magic shields. Armor? Friendship nukes as we have seen before. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady Shrimpy 24 July 12, 2015 Share July 12, 2015 Also note that Predator would be very outnumbered against the ponies, so that would make it a lot harder for him to beat them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CheeryFox 23,822 July 12, 2015 Share July 12, 2015 He would be sent through a interdimensional portal, lol. I'd say before that, he'd do some real damage. Sōten ni zase...Hyōrinmaru! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cider float 2,538 July 12, 2015 Share July 12, 2015 He would cause a lot of damage. If he kills off the mane six or a couple of them which he can it would leave Equestria devastated. But up against the ponies of Equestria he would get smoked I only said he would still cause serious damage because a predator acts in stealth so many ponies would die before they realize there's any imminent danger. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This. I don't know if he'd end up getting smoked in the end, but yes, he'd definitely get away with some serious damage, and dare I say, at least one or two alicorn skulls added to his trophy collection. Here's what I think about the magic: Yeah, the ponies have done some incredible things with it, but that really just applies to the alicorns. The majority of unicorns haven't studied magic to the extent they have, so they're limited to telekinesis. And even then, Predators are known for cheapshotting people, so magic won't do the alicorns much good if they don't know something's following them. It's not the end-all, be all. Not saying he'd be successful at wiping them all out, but I guess it really comes down to how soon all the skinned/missing ponies tip them off. Plus, if Applejack, Pinkie or Fluttershy are caught in the wrong place at the wrong time, all that Rainbow Power gets shot to hell. Edited July 13, 2015 by Lord-Pomegranate 1 No questions asked.

Gearbox10mm 794 July 13, 2015 Share July 13, 2015 Predator has honor, in that it dose not target the defenseless. It's not going to just start killing random ponies. It would seek out those that it considers would give the most challenge. Members of the Royal Guard, Wonderbolts and certain members of the mane 6 would likely be among it's first targets. The alicorns too, although they are usually well guarded and if one of them was assassinated, those remaining would be even more so. There are a number of force field spells that Predator would find all but impenetrable. In the end, the Predator looses. It is outnumbered and is outclassed by magic. It would deal out some, if not a lot of death and destruction but will ultimately be found out, surrounded and dispatched. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glike 487 July 13, 2015 Share July 13, 2015 Well, can Predator defeat the likes of Tirek or King Sombra? I don't think so, not without a major upper hand at least. The Mane Six have defeated these foes before, (Okay, so they just found an artifact to bear Sombra and Tirek was because of Rainbow Power). But still, ponies aren't to be underestimated. As for stealth, Pinkie Pie will know something is amiss... somehow. Or the Cutie Map will contact them. It's been known to detect problems that no specific pony is aware of.

Solid 1,327 July 13, 2015 Share July 13, 2015 (edited) The mane six in rainbow forms are fairly op so I suppose they could take care of Predator? Edited July 13, 2015 by Solid Scorpion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S.F. 1,560 July 13, 2015 Share July 13, 2015 I wonder if the Stare would work on a predator?

It would deal out some, if not a lot of death and destruction but will ultimately be found out, surrounded and dispatched. Magic is one thing, but the Predator is typically outnumbered by humans in every movie and still manages to kill most of them. Most of the time, he'll end up dying by either dumb luck (to Arnold) or just plain bad writing (to Danny Glover/the Predalien). Well, can Predator defeat the likes of Tirek or King Sombra?

It's been known to detect problems that no specific pony is aware of. I have to wonder how powerful alicorns really are when Twilight and Celestia couldn't even phase the Smooze with their magic. A few shots from a Predator's plasmacaster would likely evaporate him. And as far as we know, the Cutie Map will only send the Mane Six to places where they can resolve problems with friendship. If there was a more straightforward emergency where dozens of ponies wound up dying, Celestia would try to take care of it directly. Or she'd send a battalion of royal guards that are no better prepared than Dutch's men. No questions asked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, given the fact Discord knew him and his G1 counterpart, it's safe to say the Smooze is magic resistant, which isn't all too uncommon in these types of shows. Plus, when Tirek finally acquired Alicorn magic he grew to a size which towered mountains, so it's also safe to say that Alicorns aren't to be messed with, or at least the ones who aren't Celestia.

Ochre_Dust 329 July 14, 2015 Share July 14, 2015 The Predator wouldn't be in the mood to hunt ponies anyway. It'd go against their code of honour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Windseeker 546 July 17, 2015 Share July 17, 2015 As much as I don't like it, ponies are some pretty tough bastards. It's going to take nothing short of Marvel or Warhammer to annihilate them as a civilization. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kerberossz 1,929 July 19, 2015 Share July 19, 2015 (edited) Well I can see 3 outcomes: 1. Celestia's dream visions ---> Warning the mane 6 ----> Rainbow power ----> Predator kills everypony cuz it's from an another universe and it's useless against it OR if it "dies" the mothership tracks down the lost warrior and a horde of predators kill everpony . 2. The Predator becomes a ... prony? 3. Sweetie Bot to the rescue! Edited July 19, 2015 by Kerberossz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
