Deadliest Warrior Episode 26: Genghis Khan vs. Hannibal Review by CascadeSoldier

Wow, definitely one for the ages. I had one complaint about this episode but it ended up being one of the doper ones I've seen to date so I can't complain too much. Well Genghis Khan did it and in my opinion is easily in the among the top warriors of the ancient world. He had a tall task in Hannibal Barca but still managed to overcome the Carthaginian this week. Did you agree or disagree with the results? Thumbs up for yes and thumbs down for no. Leave me your thoughts in the comment section below and thanks for all the support once again! Happy arguing!

Your seems like your really biased towards Ghenghis.... Hannibal almost defeated Rome! It easier to defeat multiple warring factions then Rome during its rise. Probably the sole factor that kept Hannibal from destroying Rome was that Carthage was by no means able to support him at all. Based on tactics alone Hannibal should have won

@Darkfoxx999

I'm just spitting the facts. They used the double envelopment vs the feigned retreat and IMO, the double envelopment has a higher likelihood to pile up casualties and fail overall. I like Khan's tactics there over Hannibal's, especially when you couple that with the Mongol bow. I don't think you can go wrong. Plus, if you think I am underestimating Hannibal, I think you're underestimating Khan. Better tech, no lost battles, and he took over almost a third of Asia before his death.

I used to do archery as a boy scout and loved it!!! When someone showed me a mongol bow pulling it felt awesome. Elephants are amazing but bows are uncomparable.

@kingofladies04

The way they tested it was bull, but it still won out hugely in the end. True, the Mongol bow was perhaps the deadliest weapon of the non-gunpowder era. Like, that shit took over half of the world alone. It was their era's AK.

[kingofladies04]

@CascadeSoldier their era's AK lol great comparison that's just what is was! the speed and power is amazing. It has 4 inward curves for power. when i fired it i had no doubt it was a killing weapon. but the biggest thing about that shit is, when an elephant charges, it's only a little faster than humans and it's loud so you hear it a mile away but khan's shit is silent and deadly. a million blanketing the sky and everyone dies. btw what's with white boy hannibal? he's african.

@kingofladies04

No one looks that black from Northern Africa commonly, but there are a lot of pure blacks there. :P

In Europan campaign of Batu,(Genghis Khan's grandson) Mongols won 32 major wars,never ever lost..Defeated every army Europa possessed,never got pushed back or anything..

They left for their homeland when they had the news about Ghenghis Khan's death..

[Summanininruhu]

@usa1232413 in your dreams...

You are simply making up..

[usa1232413]

@Summanininruhu No. When the mongols came into contact with the germanic people aka there first reputable european opponent, they were pushed back and defeated.

[Summanininruhu]

@Darkfoxx999 Facts are bias..Genghises generals Cebe Noyan or Subudai better then Hannibal..Subudai with only 16 thousand soldiers under his command had to battle with armies 100.000 strong over and over .in the territory totally unknown to them...

Here is what historians write:A Mongol force of ten thousand would not hesitate to attack to an army of 100.000 soldiers and BEAT theme...You are deep, deep in the enemy territory need supply,you can not replace the soldiers you loose ect.ect..

[Summanininruhu]

@Darkfoxx999 Ghenghis Khan sent only small portion of his army (16.000??) under the command of his grandson,GRANDSON!! and one of his good generals,SUBUDAI..They marched over Euruopa..They had more then 30 major war.They won them all.There was no army left on earth to fight them..

Hannibal almost beat the Romans is greater...

Hahahahaha...Batu (Genghis Khan's grandson) beats the Hannibal,hands down..Genghis should not be compare...

[421ikoom]

just to point out...genghis khan united a ragtag group of tribes and went on to controll the world. he had all of mongolia, russia, persia, china and korea under his grasp. thats all the worlds technology and civilisation at the time.

hannibal was a risk taker. he lost most of his army crossing the alps. and to not even win is a disgrace.

genghis started in poverty and died the most feared man in the world. hannibal started in riches and died in exile with nothing left of his army.

[hannibal458]

I agree Kahn deserved the win but only cuz his superior weapons. Hannibal war a far better strategist than Genghis Kahn, double envelop works well and its not his only strategy, he won a series of battles against roman powerful forces 3 times his size and was able to win with somewhat a rag tag team of different legions from africa and mercenaries. he succeeded in surrounding these massive forces and mowing them down. Your bias towards kahn.

[Darkfoxx999]

@kikosemmek It seems like if Carthage would of been in a state to support Hannibal better at the time he would of been able to defeat Rome! Imagine how diffrent it would be if the mighty Rome never existed lol
