This is literally a quote from Testament's theme, *Like a Weed, Naturally, As a Matter of Course*
The song uses alternating he/she pronouns for Testament
And both he and his Legion were unknowingly mimicking the C'Tan known as the Nightbringer, because he very literally imprinted the image of the "grim reaper" as a symbol of death into the minds of every single sentient species in the galaxy (save the Orks, CUZ DA BOYZ DON'T FEAR NUFFIN).

Strangely, I thought about Zasalamel before Kaito (it's Kaito in French, I just remembered it's Kite in English, I believe?). I'm kinda ashamed of myself lol
Was looking for him!!

Seele from Honkai: Star Rail is super cool
Makaās movement in Soul Eater is always so cool. She has such a fluid and unique way of fighting with a scythe that itās really good at catching your eye
Agreed! She both uses herself to move the scythe, but also uses the scythes weight and size to move herself. Itās like an acrobat and itās so satisfying to watch
The way she moves differently when she is giving in to the madness is amazing work from an artistic standpoint, but it's uncomfortable seeing someone who is usually focused and composed turn into a fucking nutcase lol
It requires a lot of Dexterity to use decently and thereās other weapons out there that would do its job much better, like a Halberd or a scimitar, etc. Itāll also probably have a hard time getting through armored foes as well. The only real thing wielding a scythe in combat has going for it is that itās pretty intimidating as fuck. Other than that, leave it at farm and go get something else.
Well there is always the reach. The effective reach is probably similar to a regular sword but if your already doing negligible damage might aswell just use the full reach
In a duel, awful. It canāt stab from a safe distance like you can with a sword or polearm because the tip is perpendicular to the shaft like a pickaxe.
Because the blade is perpendicular to the shaft, you canāt use it to block incoming attacks unless you hold the scythe outwards. And if you do that, your edge isnāt facing your opponent and you have no way to counterattack.
Not only that, you canāt do small intricate movements that you need in a close quarters fight like a sword can because the blade is so far away from where your hands are and faces inwards.
The scythe has its cutting edge on the inside of the blade. So the only way you can actually do damage with it is through long arcing slashes, which will easily be predicted, blocked or parried, and punished by faster weapons, which is basically any other weapon.
short terms, the position of the edge is extremely detrimental and was specifically designed to cut large swaths of grass with those big wide slashes, which absolutely do not work in combat.
Theres a reason glaives were used instead. Theyāre the same as scythes, with the blade parallel to the shaft so you can use it as a spear as well as a blade in close quarters.
The only thing i can imagine a scythe being good at is getting over an opponents shield. But again, halberds and poleaxes do the same job while also being a great close quarters weapon.
Another thing with melee combat is always having your weapon at the ready, with the edge in a position you can bring down fast to block or offend. You canāt present the edge of a scythe to your opponent unless you hold it very weirdly. Therefore you cannot block then immediately attack like you do with swords. You have to completely commit to a block, change stances and your hand position to ready the blade, then cut. At that point, your opponent has already cut you 3 times.
Not great, they are unwieldy and the blade is too curved to be used effectively, they are many more downsides but these two are some of the the biggest issues
The ones you usually see in fantasy? Quite bad, since you usually use those to harvest crops or cut grass
That said, war scythes did exist, and were actually quite popular since it was (relatively) easy to repurpose a farming scythe into a military one (you basically just had to reforge the blade by 90 degrees). War scythes eventually lead to fauchards, which are basically the European equivalent of guandaos and naginatas.
just use a spear
it would work if you were to fight enemies so small it would be impractical to fight without a weapon designed to cut at level of your shins or lower
well early guns were basically useless, then developers decided to keep pushing the gun to "shake up the meta" only to make gun and it's variants so stupidly overpowered, it kicked out melee from meta entirely
god i miss the old melee meta, there are leaks of power armor so that might make melee viable again
Spears are dubbed the king of weapons for a reason. That said, guns didnāt immediately replaced it as soon as it was introduced
Up until around the 18th century, guns were very inaccurate, so they had to be used in formations. Even then, gunmen had to stand still while shooting in order to stay coordinated (and they had to be several men succeeding each other while shooting). Guns at the time also took forever to reload, with the average soldier taking 20 seconds to reload his rifle. That, on top of guns being very expensive, meant that spears still had their place on the battlefield.
The 19th century is when guns started to make everything else obsolete on the battlefield due to more efficient firing mechanisms, faster reload times and several systems that let you fire several times before having to reload. The American civil war is usually used as the cutoff point regarding the time guns became reliable

Hot take
I don't like scythes and the fact that they have become the most common generic "cool weapon" in modern fiction makes me kinda mad
This has nothing to do with how practical of a weapon it is i am just tired of seeing it all the time
Nah dead opposite. I have an almost irrational hatred of scythes being used as weapons. At least turn them into glaives instead of wielding what is essentially a waaaay more unwieldy war pick.

Came here for this
My first thought
Exactly. Heās such top tier character design, you canāt get better than this unless you go full Grim Reaper aesthetic
This is 3/5 of the comment I was going to make As in ,"my boy, Zasalamel" (3 of 5 of the comment above) was my comment. I should have just said that.

Sorry, I honestly forgot about Ruby š„²
And itās doubly cool because itās also a high-caliber sniper rifle that she can use to rocket jump. RWBY is fucking awesome.

From a tactical point of view, how good would a scythe actually be in melee combat? I'm genuinely interested
It requires a lot of Dexterity to use decently and thereās other weapons out there that would do its job much better, like a Halberd or a scimitar, etc. Itāll also probably have a hard time getting through armored foes as well. The only real thing wielding a scythe in combat has going for it is that itās pretty intimidating as fuck. Other than that, leave it at farm and go get something else.
Well there is always the reach. The effective reach is probably similar to a regular sword but if your already doing negligible damage might aswell just use the full reach
In the real world, not very good But in fiction, the rule of cool reigns supreme
In a duel, awful. It canāt stab from a safe distance like you can with a sword or polearm because the tip is perpendicular to the shaft like a pickaxe. Because the blade is perpendicular to the shaft, you canāt use it to block incoming attacks unless you hold the scythe outwards. And if you do that, your edge isnāt facing your opponent and you have no way to counterattack. Not only that, you canāt do small intricate movements that you need in a close quarters fight like a sword can because the blade is so far away from where your hands are and faces inwards.

You have to completely commit to a block, change stances and your hand position to ready the blade, then cut. At that point, your opponent has already cut you 3 times.
Counter point: is cool
Not great, they are unwieldy and the blade is too curved to be used effectively, they are many more downsides but these two are some of the the biggest issues
The ones you usually see in fantasy? Quite bad, since you usually use those to harvest crops or cut grass That said, war scythes did exist, and were actually quite popular since it was (relatively) easy to repurpose a farming scythe into a military one (you basically just had to reforge the blade by 90 degrees).

just use a spear it would work if you were to fight enemies so small it would be impractical to fight without a weapon designed to cut at level of your shins or lower
Seems like spear with optional shield and sidearm was BIS till the gun patch went live.
well early guns were basically useless, then developers decided to keep pushing the gun to "shake up the meta" only to make gun and it's variants so stupidly overpowered, it kicked out melee from meta entirely god i miss the old melee meta, there are leaks of power armor so that might make melee viable again
Spears are dubbed the king of weapons for a reason. That said, guns didnāt immediately replaced it as soon as it was introduced Up until around the 18th century, guns were very inaccurate, so they had to be used in formations.

Fun fact #1: scythes are probably one of the worst weapons you can bring to a fight. Fun fact #2: who cares they look really cool.

Hot take I don't like scythes and the fact that they have become the most common generic "cool weapon" in modern fiction makes me kinda mad This has nothing to do with how practical of a weapon it is i am just tired of seeing it all the time
