Anybody watch deadliest warrior last night?

Were you not disappointed with the results?



I mean the Green Beret's came in and they killed like 4 Spetznaz's right away, and then the one Spetnaz ends up killing 3 Green Beret's. I was so mad at the simulation, and the way they ran their testing.Anybody watch deadliest warrior last night?
It was their worst testing effort to date last night. The grenade test was completely skewed towards the Green Berets, while the close range weapon test was completely skewed towards the Spetnaz. The E-Tool is a very effective weapon in close quarters, and much more practical than that spring loaded knife contraption. The shotgun test was worthless, proving only that the Russian weapon shot faster (but not at all taking into account that semi-automatic shotguns are much more prone to jamming). The worst test though was the M4 vs the AK-74. The M4 is a much much more accurate weapon which can easily incorporate a wealth of attachments that make it far superior to the AK.





The simulation was done in that (irritating) manner to create drama. It was obvious by their ridiculous testing that they were going to give the win to the Spetnaz, but they needed to make a long story out of it to make people think for a second that the Green Berets would win.



I also find it quite irritating that they used the Green Berets as the pinnacle of the US military when there are many groups with superior training and weaponry within the US military (no offense to any GB's, they are badasses).
It seems like its rigged so that each warrior wins an even amount of weapons, which realistically isn't that accurate. I wish they'd come right out and play fair, saying that one warrior would simply dominate the other.

I like the show and the weapon comparisons are generally pretty interesting, but I'm surprised at how much testing they leave out. I don't claim to be a weapons expert or anything, but how they ran the m4 vs ak test was stupid. From 10 feet away any gun is lethal so you can't say that the m4 and ak are equal in effectiveness just because they were able to hit a few dummies at close range. They should have mentioned the superior accuracy and variety attachments available for the m4 as well as the power of the higher calibur ak. Also, as effective as the spetsnaz knife is, they never even mentioned that the GB's multitool thing would be a lot more effective if facing more than one enemy. How did they miss that?



Another thing I can't believe they ignored. In the pirate vs knight episode, they claimed that both swords were equal in effectiveness. True they both cut through the pig but they ignored the knights armor completely. If that pig wore chainmail or plate armor the sword wouldn't work nearly as well
