many people only like spartans because they are the main characters but i like elites because they are fast and strong but the spartans are smart and well trained.

"Defiant Reclaimer, he who will shatter the land and break the sky apart..."

As much as i like the elites I have a major human fetish xD, no matter what game i play my protagonist has to be human/human-like! Is that being patriotic?

I'm not sure what you're looking for.

"Reckless words pierce like a sword, but the tongue of the wise brings healing" -- Proverbs 12:18

Spartans.

They seem so emotionless, so hollowed out as their only job is to kill.

Elites are space samurai.

Elites! Everyone plays as Spartans, we need more elites!

Thats a hard one for me. I prefer Spartans. Or rather Spartan II's (Over Spartan III's) because their extremely well trained, from a young age their trained in the best tactics of war, teamwork, educated with some of the most useful information, math, english etc and such battles as the Battle of Thermopylae.

Spartans are usually quiet to everyone besides themselves (Exept Kurt-051). It's common belief that if Spartans didn't have their iconic MJOLNIR armour they'd be useless. But Spartans did missions before they got this armour, and Master Chief has always told his Spartans to never rely on technology, rely on your training and instinct. "Using your eyes and far better than using your radar" is one such example.
Spartans are the best of the best of the best as it has been said. They give their lives for humanity and give hope to the people of the UNSC and strike fear in it enemies, whether its rebels or Covenant.

Just because I like Spartans more doesn't mean I don't like Elites however. I find Elites to be great. They have so much honour and courage and they're strong mentally and physcially. In the halo book Halo: Cole Protocol. Thel Vadumee I believe tried to take on a soldier he'd never seen before. It was a Spartan. When they went close range the Spartan had a combat knife and Thel knew this Soldier looked different from the others (He also had surprise that a human had the same strength as him). Covered in armour, stronger, faster and noticably far more well trained. Couldn't see his face so he said he was a "Demon" also he pretty much said "Lol look at that knife, we had knives like that in the medievil age"

Elites even took a good look on Humanity after years of warfare. Elites are a warrior race to the core. Humanity fighting and fighting and fighting nomatter how 'primitive' their technology was, and fighting a battle they couldn't possibly win impressed the elites. The humans fought the enemy that the elites saw as the best which was themselves. If humanity being inferia would fight even throwing the "smallest of themselves into their fire" without fear than the elites saw that humanity had earned the right to atleast have a chance of joining the Covenant. So Elites are awesome to me, and their bravdo is funny to watch. Such as them using so much to kill Spartans when they see humanity as being pathetic most of the time. I love elites, just love Spartans more.

If the dead had feelings, your head would still be ringing from my buck shot going through your skull.

man..i totally agree with you...the elites were awesome...and so are spartans...but what i find ironic...is how they both have similar training..both trained to fight at a young age....both solely dedicated to fighting...and always try to finish the job...

Spartan lore is interesting but the hierarchy within the elites is interesting. Also their story in the Covenant including the civil war is so interesting.

Spartans.

They get the job done any way they can. No messing around. Quiet, deadly, swift, strong, and brave. They got the coolest damn armor ever, and are the only human warriors that can match up to the deadliest of warriors in the Covenant. They're not honorable, they don't hold back, or talk trash, just point, shoot, and kill.

Elites are awesome too, but it seem like they limit themselves at times and they get cocky and sometimes emotional in a fight, which has cost them. But their traning, strength, and speed are surprisngly equal to Spartans.
