Siats runs the gauntlet

Siats would get through most of these guys, but I can see Epanterias, Tarbosaurus, Acrocanthosaurus and Triceratops putting up a good fight. He should win against Epanterias, because of his slightly bigger size. Same with Tarbosaurus. With some luck, he could get to fight 7. Not much further though. Acrocanthosaurus and Triceratops are a problem. I don't see him going past fight seven at all.

Let's see:

Round 1: Siats wins, however if we use the adult Suchomimus it would probably win; There is no information on Spinosaurid growth rate however, so we'll just use the immature specimen.

Round 2: Edmontosaurus is not much bigger, plus it does not have enough weaponry.

Round 3: Tarbosaurus is like 20% smaller, it can possibly win. 50/50 but if anything Siats wins

Round 4: Both are like the same size basically, Epanterias doesn't have one of the strongest bites for its size. Neither of them can use their arms properly, so I am going with the possibly stronger bite here.

Round 5: I can see Siats winning here, however it is quite close. Siats can't outflank Styracosaurus due to the fact Ceratopsians have very little rotational inertia, as a result of their compact bodies. Its wide-gauge front limbs are also not letting Siats outflank it. I can still see Siats handling Styracosaurus though, also Styracosaurus is ~2 tons not 3.

Round 6: Spinophorosaurus is like 8-10 tons, although I have seen posts on Carnivora of it being 12-13 tons. However, they were 2012 posts, which I am not considering that much since they usually do not use the same ideas they used back then.

Based on other Megaraptorans and Neovenatorids, Siats, at 12 metres, is capable of reaching the neck. It can win here, as well as with the fact that Spinophorosaurus can't do much more here other than blunt trauma.

Round 7: At 11.5 metres, Acrocanthosaurus weighs ~5.5 tonnes.


The lower jaw seems well able of implying greater forces on object, unlike the rather weak jaw of Carnotaurus, which looks like this:



So, now that we saw a jaw that implies a small amount of force, we can see that the angular and the surangular are very thin, unlike that of Acrocanthosaurus, which resembles that of T. rex, which has a stronger bite:



The angular and the surangular have similar shapes to that of Acrocanthosaurus. There is a difference, however; The skull robustoness. T. rex has a much more robustly built skull, as the pictures above show. Still, Acrocanthosaurus has a jaw that seems to be at the middle of those two, which means it has a regular bite. The point here is, Acrocanthosaurus' angular and surangular are very similar in shape to that of T. rex, side view-wise. However, from the top, T. rex shows a different skull, a much more robust one. You may think, what does T. rex and Carnotaurus have to do with this? They are being used to compare biteforces, I am aware that this looks a bit awkward and may not be interpreted properly. I gotta admit it, this is a bit pointless... But it already serves to show the jaw of Acrocanthosaurus compared to a jaw that delivers a weak biteforce, and another one with a strong biteforce. Since neither Acrocanthosaurus or Siats can use arms properly in a fight between the two, they'll rely on biteforce; Acrocanthosaurus might as well rely on its possible stronger biteforce. I am giving an edge to Acrocanthosaurus here. Stops it.

Round 8: How is a Ceratopsian 6 metres and 4 tonnes? Styracosaurus and Triceratops are pretty similar in bulk (correct me if I am wrong, but it seems very like it), wouldn't they be at a similar mass at the same length? At max sizes, Triceratops is more like 7-8 metres. Anyway, Triceratops wins due to much superior weaponry.

Mecha, stop using your own figures. Use actual estimates not what you think is right.

Also, wouldn't a 12 metre long Edmontosaurus be more like in between 8 and 9 tons?




It clearly shows this:

Edmontosaurus is 7.5 tons according to better estimates. Don't believe that shit 4 ton estimate.

and since when was triceratops only 6 m long?

I heard it got downsized recently, but I guess I exaggerated it a bit too much.
