# African Lion vs Immortal Jellyfish: Who Would Win?

African Lion wins this matchup, with a 95% chance of victory against 5% for Immortal Jellyfish in our 3-round simulation. Its biggest advantage is strike power, 94 to 6 out of 100.

The simulation puts both animals on neutral ground. In the wild, terrain, the size of the individual animals and plain luck would all change the result.

## Verdict: African Lion
- **Win probability**: African Lion 95%, Immortal Jellyfish 5%
- **Decisive weapon**: Deep-throated 114-decibel square vocal cords that project territorial warning roars across three miles of open savanna.

### Round 2: Clash of Superpowers

African Lion unleashes its core evolutionary weapon: Deep-throated 114-decibel square vocal cords that project territorial warning roars across three miles of open savanna. Immortal Jellyfish's defense rating of 11 is severely tested as the attack breaches defenses.

### Round 3: Final Resolution

Deep into round three, African Lion's superior endurance and firepower seal the contest. Delivering a definitive blow backed by Florence + The Machine's soundtrack, it incapacitates Immortal Jellyfish.
