Ok, here's the deal, we take all the people who survived Predator encounters, kidnap them, drop them on Planet Preserve, no weapons, no nothing, only clothes that were on them and they must hunt each other otherwise Predators detonate nuke inside the planet core. Who comes out alive ?

Such dumb premise, love it!

I'd say Dutch or Naru because both of them has biggest expirience in traps and outdor tactics. All in all Duch is my pick, due to sheer strength needed in final confrontation (and boyscout stuff).

Sooo...

Dutch has military experience, very good at building traps and being Arnold Schwarznegger and all probably has the higgest sheer strenght out of the entire group

Harrigan is too old for this shit

Royce and Isabelle given their history together might try to kill everyone else before going after one another.  Royce being cynical sonovabitch he is will probably lie to others that he knows a way out luring them into a trap, much to Isabelle's disaproval, outcome depends on how believable he is. Also, he probably will be the only one cold-blooded enough to go after Rory

McKenna will do his best to protect Rory but probably will go down one of the first. Both he and Isabelle without their weapons will be lacking their main advantage. Although McKenna  might have a serious edge over others if he still has invisibility ball in his pockets.

Rory given how good he is at learning languages would probably be the only one to communicate with Naru and maybe even convince her to help

Casey is a biologist so she might be able a la Edwin to use some of poisonous flora of the planet

Naru ... wait, shouldn't she be dead this far into the future ? Ah f**k it, Preds kidnap her and put into suspended animation for 300 years. Naru will probably hide and observe and wait for others to take care of one another before going after whoever's left standing. Probably with bow and arrows ...

Man, this is harder to decide than I thought!

I would've said Isabelle if she could get the jump on everyone with her sniper rifle. But no weapons. So I guess Dutch and Naru would be the final contenders considering they can make and improvise weapons from the land and use the environment to their advantage. But then, no way is Dutch gonna even attack a young girl, so I think he'd forfeit at that point and Naru wins.

Royce sure wouldn't have that problem

Fun premise ! I'd say Dutch or Naru. I'm leaning towards the former more.

I can't go past Dutch. Though the others aren't slouches.

I think I'm leaning towards Naru

Dutch has Naru's ingenuity, the physicality she lacks, and the combat experience she desires.

Royce's the only one (at the beginning of Predators anyway) I can see having no qualms about killing the others.

I picked Royce myself, I have served with special forces and can say they are some of the most lethal humans on the planet. However, Royce wasn't just special forces, he was doing/ did black ops, people that can accomplish missions others would not even think of trying to do. He's got the training and the skills. Dutch is strong but the military teaches you strength is definitely not everything. Dutch was in a special rescue team, he's good but not black ops good.

Dutch is special forces and is tricked into performing black ops specifically because they know he's that good.

During the time of the film it said he was a private rescue squad, mercenary team, he was no longer part of the army, so not specifical forces anymore. He was in special forces prior though, as at some point he met Hopper's team, the green berets out of Fort Bragg. Also Royce would have up to date training, training is much more advanced now than it was in 1987. On dutches bio it says he left the army in 1980, so he had not been training with army special forces for 7 years by that point. Not that he stopped training altogether mind you, but he wasn't being tested and trained by special forces instructors anymore.

Dutch is the team to send in when the special forces fail.

Also they are movies.

lol One man alone, betrayed by the country he loves. Now fights to defend it from an unknown enemy. Also good point 👍

I voted Isabelle before I realised no weapons. Thinking about it, I stick with Isabelle. She'll wait for everyone else to kill each other and then take out the last, very tired, very beaten down warrior.

I would like to see Isabelle vs Naru

Is he really? He had a chance to take out Nicolai, yet he didn't (and guy was shooting at him).

Me too! 🤤

Dutch's litteraly the best, according to a high ranking CIA operative.

"Some damn fool accuse you of being the best".

"Nobody else could've pull it off".

Yeah but that's like heightened reality, and bravado, I don't take that stuff seriously.

The first statement is definitely bravado, but the second one not so much. They litteraly hired him to pull this off, because nobody else could.

I recently got the notion that Dillon was referring to himself. He accused Dutch's team of being the best and that's why CIA and army brought them insted of another Green Beret squad.

He's absolutely referring to himself when he says "some damn fool".

Indeed. I see that as more than bravado as well.

How about Enoch Nakai?

Sorry, can't remember all of the people from Predator comics. And that would make list way too long
