How is this thread different that the strongest Elder Dragon thread again?

The answer is the same as it was in the other thread. We have no idea. We have faced a weakened Zhaitan, and Destiny’s Edge went against Kralky, but other than that; we have little to no information in regards to Primordus’ or Jormag’s true strength.

And absolutely no info on Bubbles or Mordremoth either.

this is different because the strongest elder dragon is meant to be he dragon alone this is there whole army with all minions like i said not just the dragon alone on the other thread they are talking about how they corrupt not the actual fighting force with all elements and the dragon combined like i said earlier

The minions wouldn’t really be able to do anything, since they are susceptible to the other Elder Dragon corruption (as shown by Subject Alpha). The Elder Dragons bringing them to arms against one another, would just add too much confusion to the battlefield. All those voices in a minion’s head, would make their actions…. unpredictable.

That depends on if the dragon/champions are there or not…because it has been said minions have clashed with each other I think specifically branded and risen?

Alright, So Primordus comes out from underground, the area is near the water’s edge so DSD can join in, and everyone duke’s it out. I would say Jormag could easily tie up the DSD’s minions, as long as the Destroyers don’t melt the ice. DSD, Mordremoth, and Primordus might have an advantage because their minions didn’t have minds prior to being created, so they may not be able to be doubly corrupted like Alpha was. Although in the fight between the ED’s itself I would probably give it to Kralkatorrik with 1 big unless. If Jormag’s mind is strong enough to take on another elder dragon, I would give the playing field to Jormag. On the simple notion that if an asura, however amazing he might be, was able to control Kralkatorrik’s mind, then another elder dragon, with an elder dragon as a minion, would totally kick the others’ tails in. And here is where the fun speculation that chris wanted begins

The Elder Dragon’s minions are part of the Elder Dragon. The strongest ED thread did not exclude minions.

If two ED were to war it out, they’d be trying to corrupt the other dragon’s minions (as said by Erukk, dragon minions are susceptible to other dragons’ corruption). So the only way that this wouldn’t occur is when you have a dragon who’s minions are not the kind that the other would want to corrupt (the Elder Dragons seem to hold a preference for how to corrupt – e.g., Primordus likes to meld lava and stone together in pools or “eggs”; Jormag likes to use living beings and tempt them into serving him of their own free will, or uses corpses like Zhaitan does; Kralkatorrik corrupts anything that has a phsyical presence) – under which, Primordus and Jormag fighting each other wouldn’t (probably?) go after the others’ minions to corrupt them.

But in the end, as Erukk said, it is impossible to know. If one’s not going about corrupting the other’s minions, it all depends on how many minions they have, how fast they can replenish, and how much magic they’ve consumed, as well as how strong the individual dragons and minions are – and they all hold variables in these cases, with no point of comparison.

That depends on if the dragon/champions are there or not…because it has been said minions have clashed with each other I think specifically branded and risen?

We’re told that they would, but we’ve never actually seen such happen.

The closest ED minion activity there’s been has been Destroyer and Risen. Excluding the Crucible of Eternity and Vexa’s lab (in the latter, they don’t clakitten all, in the former mechanics – or perhaps Alpha’s control? – prevents them from doing so).
