[throwback-town]

but counter question how do we know evil benny IS at the same level of control and capability as lucifractor benny? bc his magical development in s2 is far more fleshed out and his knowledge is only limited to his development in double negative. meaning he doesnt actually have as much experience as s2 benny

also what would evil benny be withOUT ethan? if hes not in the picture and it was a strict 1v1 would the tables turn?

also how can we assume lucifractor benny isnt more powerful? given that he could quite possibly be given a magical boost by stern himself by way of power transfer

plus the newfound control that he has in s2 to not misread/misinterpret a spell. control is one thing that evil benny doesn't have but lucifractor benny does, but that might also mean that control makes him a better fighter by way of accuracy and precision. afterall, what use is a spell if it hits the wrong target (which could potentially be the magic user themself meaning evil benny could knock himself out in the process of casting a spell)

lucifractor benny also he has the drive to actually commit and even follow through with a plan (he doesnt have much screen time but makes up for it by action) regardless of if the plan is his own or stern's

whereas evil benny seems aimless in that he only cares about ethan and becoming cooler. and when fighting normal benny he makes threats but normal benny clocks that he's no better at magic than normal him.

and lucifractor benny on the otherhand is shown to be fully capable of handling a task to completion (ie the portal he creates and the fireball)

whilst evil benny immediately resorts to physical violence instead of using the spells in his repertoire which makes me think that he actually doesnt have as much control over them than he claims he does. he just knows they exist and isnt afraid to use them.

if he does physical violence first in a fight with lucifractor benny, he might just lost any chance of winning seeing as normal benny was able to fight him off. and who's to say that lucifractor would even care enough to get in range for physical violence, he might be smart about it and avoid the whole engagement altogether seing as he's more strategic that way.

also question how do we know evil benny is going to settle for normal ethan? he very clearly did not like normie ethan and even tricked him into taking a photo against his will. who's to say evil benny wont just spend the time trying to turn ethan and/or kill him to make a new evil version of him. and would this version be s1 ethan or s2 ethan?

tbh i dont think evil benny needs to be good at magic persay to win. hes just chaotic and unpredictable and lucifractor benny would struggle to predict what is coming next from him, seeing as he wouldnt care about a counter to any offensive spells and would rather go berserk with as many spells as possible. i def think the turning inside out spell is just the tip of the iceberg for evil spells.

i feel like evil benny def has the capability to raise an undead army of animals (that kinda doesnt really listen to his orders) or something crazy random whereas lucifractor benny would set the world ablaze or something like making him go to sleep, something quick and strong... but the kicker is that evil benny doesnt have as much control as lucifractor benny and would focus on quantity over quality but lucifractor is level headed and would probably try to snipe evil benny out first go with a strat.

problem is that evil benny would be creative by linking unseemly spells together, maybe even make up a few ones himself by experimenting and that would be terrifying for lucifractor benny to understand because he (presumably) is making plans based on prior attempts that keep failing due to chaos and coincidence. it would be like... janet trying to understand jason from the good place. its cute in that show cuz theyre diff ppl but here they're the same alternate versions of each other so....... they may kill each other cuz 2 cant exist at the same time

Need a s1 evil benny vs s2 lucifractor benny fight rn

who is gonna win

my vote is evil benny cuz he says he doesnt like when people tell him what to do while lucifractor benny was getting controlled af

it's true lucifractor benny's magic actually worked when being controlled by the vp

but consider S1 benny choosing to follow through and stick to touching spells that normal benny would never think of using whereas S2 benny was only doing what the vp wanted him to do

but then i wonder cuz evil benny didnt really have a plan vs lucifractor benny who def had one laid out by the vp and was only foiled by normal benny but then again evil benny was more chaotic and unpredictable so...

that would actually be crazy to see like an evil mastermind vs unbridled chaos

idk i like both ways winning and losing

if you saw this in the discord shhhh no you didnt || also shout out to betty weir for noting that s2 benny's magic actually worked with more efficiency, potency and danger
