Orcs Vs Ninja- who wins?

Question

FF semi-finals- a band of orcs meets a detachment of ninja in pitched battle, who wins and why?

Answer 1

Ninjas definitely. They're trained in thinking patterns that follow martial arts philosophy such as "bend before the wind". The orcs have no tactical training, no real loyalty to each other, and no finesse. They are chaotic, unrefined savages that rely on brute force and overwhelming numbers. As the two forces meet, the ninjas automatically gain the initiative and scatter, drawing the orcs forward and lulling them into a false confidence as they see the ninjas apparently routing. The ninjas begin to nickel and dime on the larger, stronger ones - a shuriken here, a dagger there, a brace of darts or spikes over here, and a scattering of sharp caltrops all over the ground. Caltrops are like the childs toy jacks, with one always pointing up no matter which way they land. They concentrate on drawing one or two at a time away from the main group, and while the orc is busy running down the ninja in front of him two more attack from the sides and hamstring him. Soon the field is littered with orcs, some dead, some poisoned, some unable to walk from having tendons cut, some from caltrops piercing their feet. Some ninjas - the younger, less experienced ones - may be dead from lucky strikes or from orcish arrows, but the orc archers would have been the first ones dead from ninja arrows. I figure the orc archers would have been lucky to have gotten off one volley. As the main group of orcs continues to be whittled down they begin to be overwhelmed by rage and begin making dumber and dumber choices. A ninja may "step up" as though he is challenging a big orc, going thru an elaborate sword kata, but when the orc concentrates on his challenger and forgets to look around, six shuriken hit him in the face and his "challenger" opens his throat ear to ear. Soon there are only ninjas left as the mentally challenged orcs all die from not understanding how deadly their opponents truly were.

Answer 2

I'd say the ninjas!

Although the orcs are far bigger and stronger, they would be too direct and would play straight into the hands of the ninjas by charging in headstrong. The orcs would have been all too confused by the ninjas' use of theatrics; they would be chasing shadows while being picked off by ninjas' poison stars and daggers flying out of no where, they'd probably end up injuring themselves more than the elusive ninjas.

The only real danger the ninjas have is if they get bored with their prey and decide to test the orcs fighting ability, perhaps one or two of the less proficient or disciplined ninjas may get injured.

Unless the orcs are unusually special then they are literally meat to the butchers. Orc sashimi any one . . .(no I didn't think so).

Answer 3

Historically- ninja. Although much of the exalted powers are exaggerations, the spies still beat the Orcs coz Orcs doesn;t exists.

Fictionally- Ninja. The Orcs are only good against opponents that they can see. Any self respecting ninja would have despatched loads of Orcs before they are detected. The orcs would have been panicking like mad if they saw their comrades dying and they cannot see the opponents. They are just tougher cowards, as compared to the goblins.

Hence, Ninja wins orcs hands down

Answer 4

Oh wow. Easy answere.

Even though orcs are big and move in groups, their fighting ability is so pathetic that hobits were able to waste them in Lord of The Rings.

If Boramire could kick that much orc butt with 2 or 3 arrows sticking out of him, i would think a ninja would be hard pressed to break a sweat.

From what I've seen, orcs suck. You could pit a 5th grade gym class against a gang of orcs, and i don't know if the gym class would even be late for math next hour.

Answer 5

Thats a good one, Orcs usually move in large packs very loudly, making a lot of noise whereas Ninja usally move solo, and stay stealthy in shadows, If there were a even army of both I would say Ninja for sure, the Orcs would be just running around screaming, then BAM a thousand Ninja Stars, then just the slaughter begins.....

Answer 6

If they are Sci-Fi orcs with loads of massive weapons, I think the ninjas are toast. Unless they are cyber ninjas in which case they will dice up the orcs in no time.
A normal clear contest though and my money if on the ninjas

Answer 7

Well i would say orcs b/c they are tough and they show no mercy and they are kinda hard to take down b/c they are so masculine.but with ninjas they are very agile and swift so i cant really decide sorry(id go with orcs)

Answer 8

it it wrere one on one toe to toe then id go for the ninja. yeah so the orks probably out weighs the ninga by 300/400lbs and could probably bounce him off of the far wall through brute force but the ninjas got cumming, stealth, the ability to go all jackie chan/bruce lee on the green skinned ones **** and if you've ever met anyone with a martial arts background it doesnt matter how bit you are it still hurts when he kicks you in the head. so if you got a team of tooled up ninja versus a tooled up team of orcs its bye bye green skins

Answer 9

It would depend if the ninjas were like the ninjas of naruto but i would still say ninjas because of the fact that they could do ambushes.

Answer 10

Orcs.
