Pirates vs Ninjas

[Draquish]

The neverending question.

http://piratevninja.com/

Vikings would pwn them both, IMO.

[Vandango]

Meh Gimme a Machine gun ill pwn em

i voted Ninjas

[dom]

I voted ninjas and added:

Being a pirate takes no skill. It's brute force and pure intimidation. They have never taken on any formidable foe, they have simply abused the fact that most ships were unsuspecting and carried unarmed or barely armed men. Being a pirate is like walking up to a cow at night and pushing it over - they should be ashamed. On the other hand, being a ninja requires much more skill and dedication. Their power lies not in their numbers or the weakness of their victims, but the dedication and practice they have put towards their art. Add to that the fact that they were created to take care of things normal soldiers could not take care of. Being a ninja is like being rambo minus the gun and bow. You're alone and surrounded.

Bold is fixed typo.

[Swindler]

Ninjas ftw

[Mousetrap]

How can you even compare a Pirate to a Ninja?
Pirates are just.. old shits with a sword, no training of any type.. just common thieves on the ocean.

Ninjas, on the other hand.. spend most of their lives training to become a true ninja. They train more than the body - they are just........... you know what, this is just too stupid to even discuss.

NINJAS FOR THE FU.CKING WYNN.

[NobleHunter]

Pirates FTW. Pirates can use guns lol, i dont think ninjas are faster than bullets

[RuYi]

Pirates, despite of my Asian background. They got the rum.

Hate me.

[Shynygamie]

Ninjas all the way. They are trained and they can throw weapons just like pirates, but they just use guns.

ARRRRRRRRR

ARRRRRRRRR

Pirates have era guns. They aren't really guns, they're iron tubes with iron pellets and a bunch of shotty gun powder. They fire one bullet, which won't kill, death is usually brought on by infection from the wounds, and they're stuck to short cutlasses with which they have no skill.

Pirates rely on their numbers and brutality. They're whole way of being is to hide on a ship, approach a merchant vessel full of gentlemen that live in estates on the English countryside, and simply hop onboard and take the booty - defenceless victims make for an easy crime.

Ninjas might not have "guns", but their throwing stars are far more deadly, and their Katanas able to slice a cutlass' blade from its handle. The people they prey on are warlords, people that normal soldiers cannot kill. Not only this, but they're used to being brutally outnumbered.

1 Ninja on a pirate ship will kill every single pirate, room by room, without any troubles at all. Think about it, what are drunken, vitamin c deficient, hairy fat men going to do against a man that kills before his shadow is cast? Nothing.

Hehe I enjoyed reading that.

Ninjas FTW!

[rek]

Luls, pirates.

[Doron]

Pirates, because they can seriously make me giggle in their little slang...

[Ashikiheyun]

Pirates.

Don't pull the "Pirates sneak up on unsuspecting merchants so ninjas are better." example. Ninja sneak up on their targets don't they? Not much of a difference there.

And pirates didn't just prey on those poor unsuspecting merchant ships either....they took quite a few forts during the golden age of piracy, it's hard to sneak up on a fort, which is something that's usually never unsuspecting.

And, really, come on...



Pirates have the girls, the rum, sailing on the open seas and just relaxing, not having to be uptight all the time, and they are just awesome.

Ryu Hayabusa (Ninja Gaiden) vs Jack Sparrow (Pirates of the Caribbean)

!!!

[NobleHunter]

Pirates had skilled men in their tripulations:

English corsairs: Elite mercenaries with special training, their activity was supported by the english crown, they were skilled with musqueteirs.

Spanish pirates: Those guys were usually mercenaries or unemployed soldiers from the "tercios", infantry unit famous for fighting in the walloon territories of the netherlands, they were skilled swordsmen/pikemen.

Dutch pirates: Pretty agressives they even robbed other pirates. they were ussually unemployed soldiers/mercenaries with lot of experience, this guys controlled the caribbean for years because of the fire power of their ships.

After years of piracy the requirements to be a pirate decreased... even thieves and women were recruited, but they always had skilled men onboard.
I´m talking about the golden era of piracy, from 1550 to 1720, the piracy in the caribbean sea.
Of course some tripulations were mixed but they were ussually english, french, spanish and dutch.
After some years the english crown changed his policy about the corsairs and condemned it, this marked the end of the piracy.

Pirates FTW

[FireVortex]

I voted 4 ninjas cuz there awesome and pirates spend most of there days on a ship full of men......

[Draquish]

IMO it depends on setting.

In an open, grassy field, a pirate would win; in a more complex setting, a ninja would win due to his/her stealth. Vikings, on the other hand, would win regardless.

[BrokenSaint]

You forget, ninjas train in ninjutsu!
