Both have survived years into the apocalypse, both have dealt with sprinting zombies and both have babysat a minor during a post-apocalyptic cross-country trip. Given the similarities, who would win in a death match??? Here’s my casual take.

I like your opinions in other videos so i will let that one slide, Joel wins anyway
Grizzly Bear vs Gorilla next (bear wins and it’s not close)
Should've at least mentioned joels hearing ability. Its pretty broken.
Not that this helps joel actually come out on top the reason he lost to those no names probably has to do with the fact that joel is getting fairly old to be fighting like he was. He was definitely in his fifties and we just saw how even one of the greatest boxers of all time couldn't escape age
I wish we could see Joel at his prime. He def was a beast among men.
Uhhh i hope that captain gold doesn't think that just because a rifle model is chambered in like 20 different cartridges that you can actually shoot those through the same gun?
Idk man, Daryl is tough, but Joel has the hands god gave him lol
A better debate would be Deacon at John from days gone vs Daryl Dixon
The random firefly is ethan. Source: grounded mode and hearing his name a million times over
Its sad that people think Daryl could beat Joel in a fist fight. Joel is too strong more experienced and more brutal than Daryl is.
You say Daryl is a better fighter but every time he gets physically involved hand to hand he gets his ass beat he always needs a weapon and Joel can be just as good of a shot depending on the player if it’s the most skill player in the world Daryl would be dead before he even got a chance to do anything
For the cry-babies in the comments, who claim bias, keep in mind that I could’ve given Daryl an M4, AK47, an RPG, grenades (the quality frags and not some cheap IED), molotovs, machetes, even more knives and I could’ve included plot armor (which Joel also has in the first game).
Believe it. I was being very gracious here.
I’m not disagreeing with Daryl wining but I don’t like how you kept saying he got beat by some random dude because just because we don’t know that dude that doesn’t mean he doesn’t have hands. It’s still a man and for what all we know that dude could of been Bruce lees son or could of been the weakest person on the planet
what about Joel's super hearing? that pretty much makes it impossible for anyone to sneak up on him. unless he's playing on grounded mode then he's screwed lol
Can you do Rick v dary or Rick v joll
'its a pointy fuckin stick'
😭😭😭😭
I definetly didn't take into account how many people Daryl has had to kill compared to Joel, Joel's no slouch but at the end of the day Daryl know's how to kill a human being better than Joel does, he doesn't get laid out by random people like Joel does, he won a 1v1 versus Beta, I'm not sure Joel could do the same. Plus I'm pretty sure canonically Daryl is younger than Joel, and on screen it seems like Daryl has a speed advantage. Joel's a beast, but Daryl is just a bit more of a killer.
This is still a hard arguement between the two. This is a great versus challenge
I'd have to go with Joel. He has far less resources and has sprinting Zombies and things like Clickers and Bloaters. If Joel had Daryl's weapons against much slower zombies, he'd do much better.
Well yeah, Daryl has a lot more people kills the people still alive in the apocalypse of The Last of Us have to scale much higher.
Mostly fair assessment but Joel was never bested by "unnamed fodder" those were all people and we dont know their history or how strong they are so thats not fair to write off unnamed characters as being fodder because the story doesn't give these people a name.
Morgan Jones vs Tommy Miller.
I can't wait to see YouTube change its policies based on how popular captain golds constant cussing is. I fucking love it.
Soon as i saw the thumbnail, i already knew the answer in my heart of hearts. Joel is pushing 60 by the time the main story of The Last of Us takes place and yet he's out here taking on entire small armies of much younger men who are heavily armed, not to mention he's had so many encounters with infected and the infected from TLOA are MUCH scarier and MUCH deadlier than any infected in TWD. I love Daryl a lot but Joel slams with zero effort.
Great video, but I must say stupid quote lmao. I would take a group of lions lead by a sheep. I think they would do just find against an army of sheep lead by a lion.
Is there a reason you didn’t use any footage from the show for “Last of Us”? Just curious.
joel had writers that hate him and thus his kryptonite is a golf club.
easy win for my brother Daryl Dixon
Hot take, Daryl is tougher than Rick
I’m very biased, so Joel wins
Abbie vs Michonne
Joel has that terminator durability, strength and endurance to scale. Most of his melee arsenal consists of weapons with a staggering reach advantage to Darryl's go to knife's, Darryl would need to get real close to him to be effective if he can close the distance at least. Even with Joels fists hes known for killing men in seconds with only a few blows.
Id agree that Darryl is the surperier marksman, even with Joels experience. Darryl's crossbow aim could be conpared with Tommy's (Joels brother) skills with a rifle respectively. Joel however does have a more versatile Loadout at all times compared to Darryl able to hold up to 4 firearms on him at once and is incredibly quick to switch between them depending on the situation. Darryl best chance of killing Joel would have to be before the fight can begin via ambush, (very difficult considering Joels heightened senses) or to get Joel out in the open at medium range while he is off guard (via deception, not really Darryls thing tho) if the fight goes on for too long Joel wins hands down every single time, known for his on the spot thinking using whatever supplies found in the apocalypse to create a variety of weapons, bombs, ammunition, medical supplies etc. Although hes a brutish behemoth his stealth is nothing to gawk at either, capable of disappearing mid fight to ambush or stealth kill his enemies. And incredibly often fighting multiple agrresers at once this feat is almost borderline batman level in my opinion. If they were to fight i think the variables of the setting and scenario are whats going to be the deciding factor. Otherwise Joel wins in a apocalypse combat scenario medium or heavily wounded.
Im a big fan of both characters so thanks if you took the time to read my opinion ❤ also love this channel you should subscribe
Daryl also has strong plot armor than Joel.
I would point out many facts here that Joel if I remember correctly also served and with throwables has literal aim bot, mod his guns, craft, and for sake of plot yeah he was knocked out by nobodies now you should do a video where they would switch universes respectively
The Remington 700 doesn't "utilize many calibers". I mean technically it's manufactured in a variety of calibers, but whatever it's chambered in is what it accepts. Just in case anyone thought they could put different types of ammo in a single rifle.
HARD disagree
The one thing I have to disagree on is Daryl as a hand to hand combatant, for someone who was untrained for most of the series, he is actually very good at hand to hand combat
Joel would be crying like a baby
I think a big reason Joel is so strong in TLOU verse is because of his brutality, almost right after crap hit the fan in his universe (and after a certain incident involving a family member) he fully dived into that brutal mindset. So this gave him a head start of sorts in TLOU universe for experience (since soon after almost everyone went down that path), but that's also why he can be beaten by nameless grunts who also gave into their brutality, just at probably a slightly later point. They're almost one and the same, we just happen to know one better.
But that's just me, I could be incorrect-
Very poor assessment
not even close in a fight Daryl makes Joel look like a brand new survivor
I would love a lee Everett vs Rick grimes video. I’m pretty sure I know the result but I would love to see how you break it down
Yeah you definitely allowed bias to pick the winner.
Let’s get Rick vs Joel now
Roaming around and finding each other Daryl wins head to head face to face i think joel would win just my opinion tho
What about Rick vs Joel from HBO show
Joel uses a machete
Yea, the Joel down play is crazy💀 there’s not really outliers. Your durability feats aren’t gonna be the peak after nearly drowning to death while trying to save a 14 years old. Joel would scale to(lowball)or above Abby and Ellie who are consistently contents with wlf and giant mf seraphites💀 and don’t compare the mushy walkers to the infected in TLOU, you might be forgetting that if anything it enhances there durability via Cordyceps. So Daryl doing all those feats to mushy walkers aren’t really impressive
Forgot joel is already in his 50s and darryl is in his prime here
This is mike vs paul all over
Sides the first ''unnamed character'' pushed him off a ladder and he was occupied with saving ellie on the other unnamed firefly that knocked him out
I firmly believe these two would be a tie but some of the things you say don't consider all the factors
Joel wins
Joel no diff. Sorry
