Who win would the war (or any other fight) the elites or the brutes?! Also who do you think is stronger and tougher?

Well, elites kinda won the great schism so who cares?
I think in Ranged Combat, Elites would win. But if The Brutes get close, the Elites will be destroyed, and the Brutes Vehicles I think are better than the Elites.
The Brutes Dominate the Battlefield, if it was the Best Elites versus the best Brutes, the Elites would be destroyed, If their ranged weapons can penetratr the Brute's armor, they'll win, but the Elites are honorable, and I assume this would be a Melee engagement, as both species are masters of War, the Elites, for honor in battle, and the Brutes, because their extreme love of War and Combat. I believe the Elites would not go down without a fight, but the Brutes are bigger, stronger, more violent, and they go into a Berserker Rage if losing. And if it did come down to Ranged combat, the Elites would have the advantage, but would still have a very hard time winning, the Brutes have the Brute Shot, and assuming both sides are behind cover, if the Elites dared try to rush over it, the Brutes have the Spikers and Maulers, which will decimate the Elites in Close Quarters Combat, The Elite's Plasma weaponry is less effective against the Brute's armor then it is against shields, so once the Brute's shields are down, they're actually better off. All and all, the only Benefit the Elite's have is Long Range, which won't help if the Brutes can get into Cover, and bombard the Elites with Brute Shot, forcing the Elites into Close Quarters, where the Brutes will win.
Of course, If it's a full out War, the Elites and Brutes are even, as both Species had access to the same technology, and have round the same experience time with these Ships and weapons.
The Brutes aren't as Diplomatically smart as Elites, but aren't idiots in Warfare, as they are the only ones who have more war experience then Elites, as their way of life is just War.
So this is the 2 or 3 post per month thread is it?
And no, I have seen sangheili crack a brutes skull by slamming them in the head with a plasma rifle, leaving the brute laying on the floor with a trickle of that blood that can't make up its mind what color it is, and if they survive its usually with a class 8 head injury.
Plus Brutes are mammals, male mammals have their reproductive organs on the out side. Mammals evolved this form of anatomy for one reason and one reason only, to receive a blow to the, as humans call them, balls. Their for say a male brute comes up behind a elite after the first one has been hit with the plasma rifle, the elite will then back kick the brute in its strategically located testacies and leave it clinching its crotch, at this point the brute can no longer produce the testnostrome needed to fight as furiously as brutes usually do.
Then a 3rd brute seeing the 2 go down will charge in.... then stop a moment and think "Gee, I just saw 2 of my buddies go down trying to beat this guy in close quarters, I wonder what the results will be if a 3rd one of us tries it." but before he can add 1 to 2 the elite will activate a energy dagger and punch him in the forehead.
This is only a scenario with the elite having better close quarters training however, it can go both ways.
Umm... This just proves Brutes beat Elites, just saying.
That is a close combat scenario which still says nothing about elites superiority in ranged combat and cutscenes/movies always will be in favor of what the plot demands. If the script wanted the elites to win they would have, but because they wanted Atriox to seem like a big threat they had to make him and his brutes slaughter some elites.
Meanwhile Kig-yar would just snipe at them with those beam rifles that some how have less range and armor penetration then the human sniper rifle in canon despite covenant technology suppose to be far superior, and laugh as the brutes first move when dealing with snipers is to start bearzerking.
Brutes were beating me up with carbines in Halo 2 I think.
