Listen, we've been waiting to see Venom fight Carnage in Venom 2: LEt There Be Carnage since that post credit scene and it is FINALLY time! Of course, that means I need to try and predict who will WIN. Most of you likely assume you know that answer already. It's Venom. You know, the "hero" of our story. Yet, WHY will he win? What does Venom have over Carnage, besides plot armor? Theorist, it goes a whole lot deeper!

  • Fun fact(or not so “fun”): The reason why venom was so scared of carnage was bc any offspring that the klyntar race/symbiotes have are always stronger physically
  • A little detail I noticed: If you notice carefully, Venom actually gets on Eddie's body like an exoskeleton, sort of like Iron Man's nanotech suit. However, Carnage literally tears apart Cletus' body when he takes control over stuff. This shows that Venom actually has respect for its host while Carnage is just a mindless rogue symbiote, not even caring about its host.
  • @Ozarka0
    What's truly mindblowing is that this is exactly how Eddie and Venom won. They worked together while Cletus and Carnage did not.
  • @decimusvitae
    Venom has a lot of advantages that most symbiotes don't have. Everything you mentioned in this video, to name a few. You also have to remember Venom burned through a lot of bodies. Eddie was a great match both in personality and physical. Venom is also inquisitive. He seems to be the only symbiote that is capable of making friends, who will help him.
  • @Tatolus
    "How did you beat Carnage?" "We gave him Lukimeia" "...oh"
  • @iamsam322
    Well guys, it turns out that Venom and Carnage were both weak to sound after all, but Venom had one power that Carnage didn’t have! The power of an ex wife and her new fiancé.🥰
  • Fun fact: venom actually has the strongest ability out of all the klyntar and it’s plot armor
  • @Za_Huncho
    In the comics, Carnage was so unique because Cassidy and Carnage both loved to murder and cause havoc. They had either the deepest or second deeoest symbiote bond in the comics. In the movie they were just a guy inside an alien. In the comics they were one. While I agree venom would win, just not the cheesy way they did in the movie.
  • MatPat: "Because it wasn't officially in the MCU, yet" Doctor Strange: "Be careful what you wish for Mat"
  • About how venom eats, I am guessing he actually breaks down everything to the molecular level in a few seconds and then absorbs it.
  • I like how Mat explored the psychological aspect. Because in the movie it does come down to the fact that Venom and Eddie have a mental bond, meanwhile Carnage and Cletus were constantly fighting with each other in that final battle
  • @ianluk6385
    I guess we can call this a correct prediction. In the movie, Eddie and Venom won because they worked together while Cletus and Carnage didn't. Good job Mat 👍
  • @TimeBucks
    this series is about the power of friendship
  • @theplaylab9336
    So afaik, the symbiotes can blend with their host more than the movie lets on. Carnage-type symbiotes are basically indistinguishable from their hosts, which is why Carnage can form holes in Cassidy's torso without killing him or paralyzing him.
  • @KalijahAnderson
    In the comics, they covered what a symbiote/klyntar is as far as the ability to eat nearly anything instantly. They are connected to the physical realm via a skin, that you see, but their mass is in the 4th dimension. He doesn't actually exist inside Eddie unless he needs to heal Eddie.
  • @RubysWrath
    Pretty much. Carnage was just a reflection of Cassidy making him tactically no better or worse. It's ultimately 1 individual always working rather than 2 like venom.
  • @zukashi7012
    "Big strong biceps or Big strong thighs" Matpat: "Personality"
  • That's the one critical flaw made in Venom 2: Carnage is separate from Cassidy. Throughout his entire history, Cassidy and the Carnage symbiote bonded deeper than any other and it was shown by him referring to himself as "I" as opposed to "we." But in the movie, Cassidy and the symbiote are still separate the entire time and it becomes a plot point so Venom can win.
  • As far as the "skull digestion" goes, Eddie most likely has developed a Mutate-style change to his metabolism since/while bonded to the Symbiote, allowing him to digest and process what Venom needs to stay sane.
