“I am ripper… tearer… slasher… gouger. I am the teeth in the darkness, the talons in the night. Mine is strength, and lust, and power. I am Beowulf.” — Beowulf


Introductions

After countless years of bitter rivalry with lonesome heroes, these ferocious inhumans will stop at nothing to hunt their greatest prey. Will Sabretooth gut the Beast Swordsman or will Zodd The Immortal cut through The God of the Hunt, find out in this feral Death Battle!


Victor Creed: The Vicious Sabretooth from Marvel


Nosferatu Zodd: The Immortal Apostle from Berserk

Before We Begin…

These characters have very simple media lists. For Sabretooth, we will be looking at his mainline comic appearances, while for Zodd we will be looking at the Berserk manga and its Anime adaptations.


Huge shoutout to Jolley and Noah for sharing their existing Sabretooth research for this blog, without their efforts it's unlikely this could have happened.


We would also like to credit Bang’s Cassandra Cain vs X-23, G1’s Guts Vs Dimitri and Po vs Iron Fist, Matchup Madness’s Blade VS Buffy & KenfromDiscord’s Respect Nosferatu Zodd! (Berserk) while we would have been able to do this without these resources, it would have been significantly worse and it's always good to get some help.

Background

Sabretooth

“I've been ready to die since before you was born!”


His story is muddled to him and anyone who dares learn about his past, there are not many points in Sabretooth’s past that can be confirmed, but what can be is vicious. His abilities came to him at a ripe young age, it was his birthday and he simply wanted a slice of pie. Unfortunately, a spat came with him and his brother, and he eventually killed him without even trying. Abused by his father for months on end after that point, on his next birthday he freed himself and gave in to every last tendency his mind and his mutant power called for, killing his parents. This would lead him down a long line of brutal violence and death, ripping and killing many others until he met Wolverine. Whether it was a strange coincidence, the murder of his brother, or just a simple bar room brawl, one thing is for certain; the trajectory of his life would change forever. Now with everything he did, every task force and army he joined and every kill he got paid for, every team he willingly came to be a part of or was forced to fight for, Wolverine was always a part of it, whether Logan wanted that or not. From that point on, he was completely dedicated to making Wolverine's life Hell, killing everyone who could ever get close to him and pushing every part of him, especially his healing factor, to the test. In recent years he’s done good, he’s fought alongside other Mutants with X-Men teams and Weapon X, but from there he fell. Fell to Krakoas first prisoner and soon to be the bane of both it and Mutantkinds existence, as they would all be caught in the crossfire of his hateful journey against Wolverine, his personal war.


Sabretooth War saw Sabretooth and countless variants of himself go on a genocidal conquest, honing their skills by slaughtering infinite mutants across the infinite Multiverse, before turning their sights on Krakoa. The Slaughter at Krakoa saw the death of countless mutants, not just those who stood in his way but anyone who could be slaughtered. Fortunately, Creed’s fate would soon meet a grim end, when in one final brutal battle with Wolverine, he was reduced to a pile of bloodied limbs, ending his war.


Zodd

"Here's a word of warning... No, a prophecy. If you can be said to be a true friend of this man... Then take heed... When his ambition collapses... Death will pay you a visit!! A death you can never escape!!"


Revered as a battlefield god and known as a legend among the mercenaries of Midland, the origins of the fearsome warrior Zodd are shrouded in mysteries. What is known of this enigmatic figure is that stories are told of a legendary swordsman who's known to fight in countless battlefields over the centuries, before disappearing for years just to resurface again in some other battle. Thus giving rise to the infamous nickname- Zodd the Immortal.


During the Hundred Year War between Midland and Tudor, Zodd once again reappears on the battlefield, making his debut in the story joining forces with the Tudor Empire. While defending one of their strongholds from a siege by the renowned mercenary band of the Midland army- the Band of the Hawk led by the White Hawk Griffith, Zodd single-handedly slaughtered almost fifty of the Hawks' Raiders. It was then that Zodd first met his future rival, Guts, the captain of the unit sent to storm the stronghold. Despite the valiant effort in landing what would be a mortal wound on any other foe, Guts was easily overwhelmed when Zodd assumed his true apostle form- a beastly lion-like creature possessing massive wings and a giant stature. When realizing that Griffith held the Crimson Behelit however, Zodd left the fight allowing for causality to take its course and for Griffith to eventually use it to become the fifth and final member of the Godhand.


After receiving an ethereal premonition and being wounded by Femto in the Astral World, Zodd pledges his allegiance to the Godhand. Now serving as the Hawk of Light's second-in-command and first general in the New Band of the Hawk, Zodd aims to help Griffith attain his relentless pursuit of forming his new kingdom on earth.

Zodd is an apostle of the Godhand, and to become an apostle, one must sacrifice something dear to them, such is the nature of these demonic creatures. The details of Zodd's sacrifice and ascension are not yet told in the story as of yet. Though, unlike his sadistic brethren, Zodd's moral values are different from most apostles. He does not consume human flesh nor does he engage in cruel pleasures like slaughtering and assaulting innocent humans. Zodd's one-track mind revolves around battles, devoting his entire existence to finding strong opponents he considers worthy. For those who can match him in combat, such as his long-time rival the Skull Knight or Guts, he is in the highest regard. He has been shown giving Guts assistance a few times throughout the series, even refusing to kill him at one point because his foe was so injured it wouldn't have made for a good fight.


Intelligence / Experience / Skill

Sabretooth

Victor Creed has been around for over a century, and despite his animalistic demeanour, Sabretooth is a cunning fighter and a skilled assassin. He is the “Top Dog” among the Multiverse’s Sabretooths that have “honed their skills against countless mutants across infinite dimensions”. Sabretooth has held his own against some of Marvel's most skilled; he’s matched Black Panther, made Iron Fist question his own abilities, defeated Wolverine and Maverick in all of 30 seconds, and has consistently held his own with Logan and other X-Men. Creed has taken the danger room to level 120,  is able to precisely shoot the proper vertebrae to incapacitate an enemy, and has broken out of worse prisons than the holding cells of Professor Xavier. Those who underestimate the Sabretooth are bound to meet a violent end.

Zodd

Perhaps the greatest ability possessed by Nosferatu Zodd is his incredible skill and centuries of domination on the battlefield. Zodd is a monster on the battlefield, having fought for hundreds of years in search of a strong opponent. He can take on hundreds of soldiers in a single afternoon and even best an army measuring 1000 soldiers Zodd has been able to directly match Guts, a master swordsman who has been fighting for almost his entire life. Guts has continuously fought monsters many times stronger and faster than him. One time he even defeated one hundred men in a single battle while suffering from debilitating injuries. Despite this, Guts is often very overwhelmed by Zodd in combat and put on the defensive. Zodd can even match his long-time rival Skull Knight who has no problem beating the weaker Apostles.

Equipment / Weapons

Sabretooth

Adamantium Skeleton

Sabretooth’s skeleton and claws are bonded with Adamantium. Adamantium is a virtually indestructible man-made steel alloy which does not occur in nature and whose exact chemical composition is a United States government-classified secret. Adamantium is not an element: its properties do not qualify it for any known space on the Periodic Table of Elements. It is an extremely rigid steel-based alloy whose density makes it virtually indestructible. Characters that possess or are bonded with Adamantium are capable of contending with foes significantly above their weight class. Adamantium is even dense enough to affect intangible people and weaken them. It enhances Victor’s physical abilities greatly, from his regeneration to his physical strength. Creed’s history with Adamantium is oddly inconsistent (thanks writers) (See Before The Verdict).


Assault Rifle

Sabretooth is a highly proficient wielder of firearms, having used them frequently over the years, As seen above he possesses an assault rifle which is capable of shooting down Archangel while moving at Mach 3.

Neural Poison

Sabretooth can lace his claws with a neural poison that left Archangel nearly completely unable to move, allowing Creed to give him a slow and painful death.


Rocket Launcher

ROCKET LAUNCHERRRRR!!!


Jetpack

Holy shit bro has a Jetpack.


Sniper Rifle

Creed has a sniper rifle which he can use to incredible effect, often sniping targets from large distances very precisely. He was capable of directly shooting certain pressure points on Wolverine from hundreds of meters while Wolverine was in a cave and with another person. 


Nuke Pills

Sabretooth has access to Nuke pills that he stole. The pills significantly improve the physical abilities of those who take them.

Teleporter

Creed has access to a handheld teleporter which he stole from the Weapon X facility.


Neural Chip

Sabretooth is equipped with a device that lets him beam his thoughts into the minds of others, much like a telepath. His thoughts are so horrific they cause physical pain to those who hear them. His mental processes have actually killed telepaths who have entered his mind without his permission, mainly a mute telepath who had endured countless minds. 

Bomb That Fucked Up Captain Marvel 

Self-explanatory, Creed managed to come into possession of a bomb that put Captain Marvel out of commission for a month, there is no implication that this bomb was anything Sabretooth needed special resources or anything to obtain so he should have access to multiple explosives at least comparable to this. 

Zodd

Sword & Axe

Zodd primarily fights using a combination of a Sword and an Axe. he usually picks these weapons up on the battlefield and over his centuries of experience has come to be incredibly proficient with them.

Kusharn Horse Sword

Zodd also possesses what he refers to as a Kusharn Horse Sword. This weapon is reminiscent of a Ram-dao a traditional sacrificial sword used in the Hindu ritual sacrifice of animals. The large, curved blade is designed to decapitate a sacrificial animal in a single stroke, aided by its additional weight.


Powers / Abilities

Sabretooth

Claws

As part of his mutation, Sabretooth has canine-like claws (and teeth) that he can use to tear through materials as durable as bone, and with Adamantium there is little they can’t rip apart. He uses these claws to slash at his opponents and to far greater effect than should be expected by relatively small claws.

Healing Factor

In addition to his claws, Sabretooth’s mutation grants him incredible regeneration. His Healing Factor allows him to regenerate most damaged or destroyed areas of his anatomy with far greater efficiency than an ordinary human. The rate of regeneration is proportional to the damage caused. This process is automatic and Sabretooth seems to have no control over it. It serves as the source for his enhanced senses, grants him limited immunity to fatigue, and slows his aging to an extreme degree. Over the years Creed has taken his fair share of damage. Sabretooth can heal from otherwise Lethal attacks, Optic Blasts from Cyclops and being Pulp Fictioned by Deadpool. He can heal from being blinded, from being completely scorched by Sunspot, from being stabbed through the head multiple times, and from having his nerves torn out. 

Stealth Mastery

Sabretooth is incredibly stealthy, able to bypass Wolverine’s enhanced senses by completely covering his scent, he can even replicate the scents of others to confuse them. Sabretooth’s stealth is so impressive it can bypass Spiderman’s Spidey Sense as well as Caliban's ability to detect mutants. He has managed to sneak past motion detectors and infrared and pressure plates, it is nearly impossible to find Creed if he doesn’t want you to.


False Death

Sabretooth’s Vital cannot be read properly, leaving Captain America to believe Sable had killed him. He did something similar to another mutant during combat, meaning it's not a one-off thing.



Self Sustenance

Sabretooth was able to stay underwater for an extended period of time, even fighting against Wolverine without issue. He can even survive in the vacuum of space.


Enhanced Senses

Similar to a feline, Creed’s senses are significantly enhanced beyond that of a normal person. As seen above, Sabretooth has a keen sense of smell and taste. He claims never to forget a scent, can smell Emotions, can smell when someone is bluffing and could even hunt down an invisible Mystique. Additionally, Creed can see in infrared (bro’s The Predator) 

Resistances

Zodd

Immortality

As his name suggests, Zodd is immortal, living for at least 300+ years (possibly 1000+ due to knowing Skull Knight from when he was alive). This is possible due to his nature as an Apostle, a former human who sacrificed a companion to ascend to demonhood. Other weaker Apostles have shown many impressive feats of resilience, like Wyald who could continue fighting after being stabbed through the eye and neck. 


Regeneration

Likely sourced the same way as his Immortality, Zodd has impressive Regeneration, It allows him to heal from deep cuts and even reattach a severed arm on not one but two separate occasions (Seen above and here)


Supernatural Presence

Beings from the Astral World give off an inhuman feeling, even when in their humanoid forms. After transforming into his Apostle form, Guts was paralyzed with fear and barely able to react to Zodd’s attacks. Guts experienced a similar feeling in the presence of Skull Knight, directly comparing them. Guts was able to feel Skull Knight’s presence despite not seeing him and had a feeling he would instantly die if he turned and faced him.

The Vortex of Souls

Those killed by Demonkind have their souls sent to the vortex of souls, an endless swirl of consciousness that consumes all sent into it like a drop in the ocean. This is the case even if they are killed indirectly, as seen when Vargas was ordered to be executed by the Slug Count, still ending up in the vortex despite being killed by the Slug Count’s guards. However, Apostles who gave up their humanity for demonhood will be brought to this same place when they die. 


Horse Riding

In addition to all the inhuman abilities Zodd possesses as an Apostle, He can even fight from atop Horseback, with seemingly no more difficulty than he has on foot.

Resistances


Forms

Sabretooth

Berserker Rage

While not exactly a form, when Wolverine, Sabretooth and other similar characters are put in highly emotional or intense situations, they often enter a state of rage where they care little about their own safety and go what is effectively feral. Creed and Logan entered this state at the same time and it resulted in a total bloodbath.

Zodd

Apostle Form

When Zodd is matched or even outmatched by an opponent, he is forced to enter his released form, better known as The Apostle Form. The Apostle form is hulking, inhuman, and terrifying. Sporting a body with enormous muscles and horns, this form increases Zodd's physical capabilities significantly. In the Apostle Form, Zodd can sprout and recall an enormous set of wings that allow him to fly for great distances. While in this form Zodd typically fights with his monstrously large fists to crush, rip and tear as opposed to his typical loadout of a sword and axe.

Scaling

Sabretooth

Wolverine

For decades, Victor and Logan have been bitter rivals. You’d think Wolverine would be the stronger of the two, but throughout their countless fights, Sabretooth has been consistently shown to be stronger and faster.


Other X-Men/Mutants

Beyond being superior to Wolverine who has fought with and against these characters frequently, Sabretooth has been unaffected by Rictor’s Vibrations, tanked an Optic Blast from Cyclops, has fought against Beast on several occasions, and even ate one of Gambit’s Cards (Raw AF)


(30.9 kilotons of TNT)

Various Street Tiers

Creed’s constant fights with Wolverine put him on par with some of Marvel’s strongest street tiers, Logan has fought evenly with Captain America himself and Sabretooth has managed to hold his own against the likes of Daredevil and Iron Fist, who he was originally a villain for, even taking chi punches.


  • Captain America:

Zodd

Skull Knight

The Knight of Skeleton is Considered to be Zodd’s rival, something that has gone on for a millennium, they have fought before on relatively equal footing so there's no reason that Zodd shouldn’t scale to Skull Knight


The Apostles & Other Villains


Guts

Weaknesses

Sabretooth

Creed is a brutal and psychotic man, his mental state is incredibly unhinged and at times the best way to describe him would be feral. Additionally, his healing factor does have its limits and his adamantium skeleton can be bypassed by targeting the spaces between bones.

Zodd

While lacking notable weaknesses, Despite his name, Zodd is not completely immortal, there is no reason to believe something such as decapitation would not prove Lethal. More than anything else, Zodd wishes to fight a worthy opponent and this could potentially be exploited to set up forms or abilities by a skilled enough foe.

Before The Verdict

Herald Sabretooth?

Why does every street tier blog need a section explaining why they are not a herald?


Sabretooth has fought and even defeated herald-tier characters, Human Torch, Rogue (while she had Captain Marvel’s powers), The Wendigo and arguably The Native. Similarly, Wolverine has fought a whole lot of heralds in his years. The reason we and most other blogs are disregarding this is the lack of consistency, for each case of Creed fighting a herald there are 10 that make it more logical that he is a “street tier”. He is pretty well established to be within the power level of a “street tier”. Creed is unable to defeat the strongest Mutant with any amount of consistency, if he was really supposed to be that strong, he’d narratively serve as a match for characters like Colossus or Storm. This being said his Adamantium and “Captain Marvel Bomb” reasonably are herald-level as that is very consistent.

Is Adamantium Standard?

In simple yes, Creed has currently kept his skeleton for years, while he did lose it originally, he did get another adamantium skeleton from Weapon X, and the scan above confirms he didn’t lose it during the insane events of House of M. Even in his most recent issues, he has it. Debatabing that Adamantium is not standard for Sabretooth disregards the fact he has had it for years, even now as a corpse he probably still has it.


Wolverine x10?

This statement is very open to interpretation, you can reasonably say it is hyperbole, only say it applies to abilities, or take it at face value. Regardless of how you interpret it, the statement serves as incredibly strong evidence that Creed upscales Wolverine to at least a significant amount.


Rictor Gets Freaky (Megaton Level Sabretooth)

Between Rictor and Iron Fist, there are legitimate arguments to be made that Creed scales to characters in the city range or higher. This is a pretty substantial leap from the standard street tier scaling but Sabretooth is clearly stronger than most standard street tiers, even some of the strongest like Wolverine. The Highest end of Rictor’s Vibrations is far stronger than nearly anything seen by characters in Sabretooth’s league and is likely an outlier. What this leaves us with is a new sort of middle tier between Street and Spidey that could include characters like Rictor, Iron Fist and Sabretooth.

Great Roar of The Astral World

“Do The Roar”

The Great Roar of The Astral World is a contentious feat, to say the least, for a strong argument FOR its validity read the BTV from G1 Guts VS Dimitri Blog here. This section will focus on an interpretation/argument against its validity 


The argument against Zodd’s Durability scaling to the roar is centred around the idea that it is not something that really does damage


The Roar of The Astral world can be interpreted as just a light that engulfs everything instead as opposed to an explosion that blasts the clouds away. Since the nature of the light is ethereal this is what causes Ganishka's monsters to disappear as well, it's likely that it's also the cause of the dark clouds disappearing. Many of the characters close to the supposed blast are unaffected such as The Hawk Knights, who are pretty much just regular people. The Fact this feat is done by Shiva Ganishka, a character substantially stronger than Zodd and many of the other survivors is also of note. 


Ultimately we will be taking it into account as a high-end argument, but there remains room for discussion about whether many characters scale to the feat.


Verdict

Stats

The AP/Durability Stats at play here have a wide variety of what can be accepted, as such we will be looking at all the potential ends in play.


For Sabretooth

Lower End

  • 21.7 Kilotons from Wolverine tanking a Nuke

  • 30.9 Kilotons from Deapools Explosion feat

  • 217 Kilotons by applying a 10x Multiplier on Wolverines Feat


Higher End

  • 15.08 Megatons to 2.68 Gigatons from Rictors Feat

  • 100 Kilotons to 50 Megatons from Iron Fist statements

  • At least 100 Megatons from Radion scaling


For Zodd

Lower End

  • 288.7 Kilotons from Ganiska’s Storm


Higher End

  • 19.9 Megatons - 10.8 Gigatons from The Roar


What is seen here is a trend that generally favors Zodd, unless you buy one high-end but not the other. The Lower End sees Zodd’s advantage range from a 1.3 - 9.3x gap, which is not insignificant, especially at its larger ends. At the Higher End, a Gap of 1.3 - 4x emerges which once again favours Zodd. On paper it should seem like Zodd takes AP closely but clearly, however, there is a small thing that puts a stop to that


Adamantium effectively negates any semblance of an AP/Durability advantage, even if you buy Sabretooth’s lowest of lows and Zodd’s highest of Highs the issue of the insane power and durability of Adamantium persists without question. This effectively makes any discussion on the existence of a tier between street and spidey a very moot point and something that does not directly contribute to the winner in any meaningful way.


As for Speed, there is far less to talk about, even ignoring the Nanosecond feats, Sabretooth’s SOL scaling breezes past even the fastest Berserk Feats by a gap of over 2000x (Mach 874,030 Vs Mach 433) and using Nanosecond feats you reach a gap of over 6000x. This is absolutely a Blitz without question.


Between Sabretooth’s Adamantium and Speed, he takes stats without Question

Arsenal and Abilities

Equipment

One thing that stands out for Sabretooth is how shockingly varied his equipment is. His Adamantium Skeleton was talked about in sufficient detail above, but the rest of his kit still brings a lot to the table. His Long Range Firearms let him contend with Zodd even if he takes to the sky, and he can even use the Teleporter to keep things melee. Not to mention the Jetpack that allows him to match that, albeit likely not as well


Victor’s Neural Poison is an incredibly potent win condition, allowing Creed to incapacitate Zodd with just a scratch.


Sabreooth’s Neural Chip could potentially be used to stun Zodd, however, his ability to be in the presence of characters with auras such as Skull Knights could allow him to move past or outright ignore the Chip’s effects


There is also the accurately named “Bomb That Fucked Up Captain Marvel” Sabretooth can effectively set this off at any time and win. Sure he probably gets pretty severely harmed at the same time but Zodd is going to be completely evaporated, nothing will be left of that man.


Compared to Sabretooth, Zodd’s Equipment is limited. His skill with martial weapons is impressive, and ignoring Creed’s firearms his swords and ax grant him superior range which is very effective for melee combat. Considering Zodd’s potential to have superior Durability, you could say that Creed’s guns would pretty much just bounce off Zodd.

Healing Factor VS Regeneration & Immortality

Sabretooth and Zodd both possess innate and impressive abilities to well, not die. Even in cases where they should be very dead, their physiology allows them to keep on going but how do they stack up against each other? First off both have lived for centuries and there's no implication that they are anywhere near the end of their lifecycle, so no waiting for the other one to die of natural causes. The immortality of Apostles allows them to live through being stabbed in the eye and neck, while Sabretooth can move through stabs directly to the brain. Zodd can reattach arms while Sabretooth can heal from being totally scorched, filled with bullets and more. 


Sabretooth and similar characters have far more and greater showings than Zodd and The Apostles in terms of taking and healing from damage. While this means both would struggle to deal lasting damage with compatible attacks, Sabretooth is far harder to harm in a meaningful way.

The Other Stuff

One of Sabretooth’s hidden talents is his ridiculous stealth, avoiding Spidey Sense and Wolverine’s Enhanced Senses means that if his environment gives him even the slightest opportunity to slip away, he can take full advantage of it. From there Creed has a handful of options, whether it is opening fire, a pounce, or dropping the Captain Marvel Bomb, Creed has options with his stealth, to say the least.


Zodd’s (Also Skull Knight’s) ability to basically cause someone as experienced as Guts to believe turning around would cause their death, is frankly insane. It’s hard to say exactly how this would affect Sabretooth given his lack of fear over death and insanity, but an incredibly interesting interaction is the potential for this to initiate Victor’s Berserker Rage. The presence doesn't necessarily qualify as a win condition, however, it is absolutely a relevant factor that grants Zodd an advantage he desperately needs

Tertiary Factors

Skill is actually incredibly interesting to talk about. On paper, Sabretooth really just has a lot of impressive victories over characters that are skilled, but without extensive research into people like Iron Fist and Wolverine, there's nothing really just right there to give him an edge over Zodd. This ultimately comes down to the differences in how these characters fight, Sabretooth often relies heavily on his insane abilities and equipment to fight, while his skill and intelligence come around when he is contract killing and breaking/entering. Zodd has a large number of examples of utter battlefield domination across centuries, using his primary fighting style with martial weapons. This is not to say Sabretooth is completely outmatched, far from it. This is just to argue that Zodd has better direct showings of what he can do. This fact is exacerbated by the potential interaction of Zodd’s Supernatural Presence putting Sabretooth into a Berserker Rage, where a feral animal is fighting a level-headed and highly experienced swordsman.



The most important implication of Zodd’s skill is whether it could allow him to exploit a potential weakness in The Adamantium Skeleton and strike in between the vertebrae. It would not be incredibly out of character for Creed to boast about his indestructibility, and it is reasonable to believe that Zodd has a basic understanding of anatomy with just how many people he’s cut open. This argument is highly speculative but ultimately very reasonable. With all the factors in play, Zodd takes skill by a noticeable but small amount.

Summary

Sabretooth

“I told ya I'd deliver, didn't I? You wanted a war? Sabretooth just gave ya a war.”

Someone worthy enough to face me in battle... the Absolute Strongest!"

Advantages

  • Takes The edge in strength and durability in most interpretations…

  • Far stronger with The Roar’s high end…

Sabretooth - (6) TripleCx3, SeñorNoah, JolleyRancher, Bored Seba, Beru_Bara, Gator Loki


Zodd - (1) John (Pity Vote)


Conclusion

After looking at the stats in play, it becomes clear that Sabretooth is way too fast for Zodd to do anything. Considering Adamantium is in The Multi+ range, getting blitzed several thousand times over, means you need incredible abilities to stay in the game. Frankly, Zodd doesn't have anything to pick up the slack, his regeneration is not where near potent enough to let him stave off repeated hits and his extreme skill doesn’t even have the chance to kick in before he is shredded to pieces. Even his passive presence doesn’t help him in the long run when it at most turns Creed into a vicious animal that will still shred him to pieces immediately.


Sabretooth’s blitzing speed, Adamantium, and sheer ferocity let him prove Zodd The Immortal’s name wrong.


Sabretooth is the Victor
