Well yeah where deadliest warrior fails is that it doesn't take into account tactics. Even in a straight head on head to head fight....

The Ninja could stay out of the Spartans range and beat him with throwing weapons eventually.

Cause the Spartan would never catch up to the unarmored Ninja 1 on 1.

 

The REAL Travsty was Alexander the Great vs Atilla the Hun, where they gave Alexander the Great an anti-population weapon he himself likely never used because they thought "it looked cool".

Don't know who would win that, but that was just... a stupid stupid weapon to select.

yup, if a ninja had the "real conditions fight" on his side, it would be easy to just hide and kill from cover.

i guess they just wanted the show attract more viewers with that ballista (like "zomg, a huge thingymagiggy!").

but either way, atilla would've won because of horse archery. nothing that the greeks had could possibly prepare them for that. the huns destroyed most of europe with just that tactic alone.
