They clearly knew Nolan was stronger than them

Why did they try to 1v1 him?

Why did the steve harvey mf try to 1v2 nolan and mark?

The fight would have been much cleaner and more in their favor had they stayed together the entire time

They spoke so highly of Nolan, they must have known they’d lose any 1v1 against him

    Exactly. We have to keep in mind that these people truly believe in the survival of the fittest, and they apply the same logic to their own lives. Ruthlessness and loyalty to the Empire are the only thing that matter.

    Lucan may have been down, but he was not out, and with a very last bit of his strength he proved his veteranhood by doing what was expected of him. Completing the mission.

    That is how you get accolades with these people, and that is how you have to earn your place in their society.

      The thing is that Viltrumites go very stupid way about “survival of the fittest”.

      They are such incredibly stupid race, that I can’t take them seriously.

      Mark is a literal Viltrumite toddler, compare to likes of Thulla or Lucan.

      Since after all, Viltrumites grow stronger with age

      So…why do they a child to be able to defeat their trained, battle ridden elders?

      This is like Brock Lesnar trying to pick a fight with 11 year old.

        To be fair from how Lucan made it sound they would take him in if he was just capable of putting up a good fight at his age. Like if he at all made it a challenge for them and managed to not die then they’d fold him into the empire and if not then he’s weak and didn’t deserve to live.
