Noob is a more versatile fighter due to his shadow clones and a more mobile one due to his portal teleportation. However, he cannot stand up to Akuma's raw power. Noob would keep his distance with shadow clones in various waves, but Akuma would bat them away to the side or do his short range teleport to bypass them. Once Akuma closes the distance, he can use his far more aggressive fighting style and superior speed to lay the smackdown on Noob before landing his island-busting super move or the Raging Demon, both of which would annihilate Noob. Noob's Shadow Ball may prove to be a problem, as upon hitting him Akuma would temporarily be unable to block or perform his special moves, but with his more powerful style I doubt this will prove to be tidechanger. In the end, all Noob can do is stall Akuma before Akuma lands the killing blow.
