Who wins in a fight Areas or Athena?
>>386014
Athena is canon: http://historylink101.com/2/greece2/ares_vs_athena.htm (poor quality source)
>>386014
During the Trojan war, Ares took the side of the Trojans, while Athena took the side of the Greeks.
Ares faced off with Diomedes, the king from Anatolia. Athena borrowed the helm of invisibility from Hades and caused Ares’ spear to go off course. This opened up Ares to a counterattack from Diomedes which deeply wounded Ares. Ares had to leave the battlefield and return to mount Olympus where his wounds were tended by Zeus.
>>386014
If it came to violence then Ares, but Athena would resolve the dispute another way.
Athenawinslol.
Seriously, read this and you will see that Ares is officially the God of jobbers:
http://www.theoi.com/Olympios/AresMyths2.html
Its sources are:
Homer, The Iliad - Greek Epic C9th-8th BC
Quintus Smyrnaeus, Fall of Troy - Greek Epic C4th AD
Colluthus, The Rape of Helen - Greek Epic C5th-6th AD
Athena is wiser and the better strategist.
Coinceivably, Ares's biggest chance would be waging a war of attrition, when he can make full use of man's worst passions to recruit more troops, turning people into fanatical killing machines.
>>386014
It should be obvious that Athena wins. Ares was the comic relief of the Greek pantheon.
>>386014
Mars would win.
>>386269
I bet you don't even hire prostitutes to talk philosophy with them.
Athena's got those fat pussy lips
>>386281
Athena also has a dick and balls.
>>386014
Athena has a lot of tricks up her sleeve and would always fight dirty using anything she can. Ares is better at a straight up brawl
As hated as Ares is he goes home and fucks the Goddess of love (and keks a cripple).
>>386014
Athena because she at least is smart.
>>386368
Will Hephy ever catch a break?
>>386014
why is athena wearing a military helmet
>>387123
>who is Athena?
Athena
Wisdom and warfare would trump raw aggression and fighting ability every time.
>>387100
feel bad for him
>>387123
Athena is a god of war you dummy
>>387123
Please be b8.
>>386014
Athena because the Greeks actually cared about her.
You can count the number of Ares statues on your hand.
>>387123
Athena was the goddess of war and wisdom you puffed up ignorant.
>>386344
>Athena also has a dick and balls.
wait what
>>386014
Apollo desu
I think very few of you have read the Iliad. Athena absolutely sunders Ares
>>386368
>goddess of love keks the god of craftsmanship with the god of war
like poetry
well, it actually is.
>>387974
>Athena
>Athens
Hmmm
>>388095

>>386025
>king from Anatolia

>>387100

>>388135
Exactly. Don't hear many tales of Aresopolis do we.
>>386025
>Ares gets rekt by a fucking mortal
>>388473
Not him but I just did, got no myths about it at all.
Source?
>>388600
To be fair, Diomedes had also been given temporary superpowers at the time on top of Athena having his back.
>>388473
Look, I've beeng googling all over the place looking for phallic athena or penis athena, I'm getting nothing.
>>388595
Because nobody loved war, genius. It was necessary and inescapable but nobody wanted it.
Kratos tbhfam
>>389314
Nobody loved the gloomy afterlife either but Hades has a pretty good share of depictions in art.
>>386014
In a fight? Ares. In a war? Athena.
>>388776

>>389516
>who is Hermaphroditus
idiot
>Not being the tiny pet of a giantess Athena and be allowed to live
>>390083
The first person you quoted is >implying that that is not Athena.
The second person is stating that the pictured sculpture is of Hermaphroditus.
So they're both right and we learn filenames can be misleading.
Okay who wins
Mars or Minerva?
>>390136
Who are you quoting?
>>390168
This is a slightly better, more nuanced question (Mars does btw).
Best question:
>Athena or Mars?
If you go by feats alone, I'd say Athena. By battle prowess, probably Mars.
>>386014
>god of war versus god of wisdom
hmm, technological advantages are responsible for conquerors having a temporary military advantage, but it is always temporary
>>386025
>During the Trojan war, Ares took the side of the Trojans, while Athena took the side of the Greeks
Yes, but then the Trojans came back and wrecked the Greek's shit so hard they thought they were Roman for 1000 years.
>>391943
>The Aenid is factual now
Pathetic Latin barbarians trying to connect themselves to a proper civilisation
She also helps Herakles defeat Ares in Shield of Herakles
>>386025
I fucking loved Diomedes. Man was nuts.
>>386025
>that description of Ares falling down in pain like a giant tree being felled
>mfw
Man I love the Iliad.
>>391943
Sure, after being all but Hellenized.
>>386014
would modern day Trojans be Muslim?
>>389516
Not canon
>>392798
>hellenes butthurt that they got assfucked by based sons of troy.
