During the siege of Asgard, Ares is leading the charge in to the citadel. He has encountered resistance from Balder the Brave, and now fights against both he and his friend who has mysteriously appeared to aid his Asgardian comrade, the boisterous Volstagg
 
Edit:
 
To add to the battle party, Fandral and Hogun may come to aid Balder and Volstagg after ten minutes. If they survive twenty minutes, Lady Sif and Valkyrie (Brunnhilde) may join the battle

Does Ares get his axe or sword here? Even if he doesn't, it's hard to pick against him.

It's during the siege of Asgard so.. yeah, he obviously gets his axe. Also, edited the OP in an attempt to give the Asgardians more of a chance

I still don't see them lasting long enough for Sif and Valkyrie to join the fight.

How is Ares going to beat all four of them in the allotted time?

Balder is the only one who could give Ares a decent fight, the Warriors Three are outclassed in terms of physical attributes.

The warriors three are all at least in the 30+ ton range. Last time I checked, Ares was seventy, maybe eighty, so strength isn't really that much of a factor. While Ares may outclass them one on one, these three have been fighting together for hundreds and hundreds of years. There's an obvious synergy between them that's going to be a major factor.

Yea but Ares is far more skilled and battle-tested than all three of them and is clearly more durable. Even if it's 3-on-1 at a certain point in the fight, I don't see them doing anything to Ares that will affect the outcome. Balder is considerably stronger and more skilled than them as well, which is why he's a formidable opponent here.

Why would they have to do anything that effects the long term in this battle? All they have to do is hold Ares off for another ten minutes before the cavalry arrives.

@The Mjolnir Wielder: I think you are underestimating the Wariors Three. They have been fighting Frost Giants and enormous demons for their entire career, and they have proven themselves against physically superior opponents many times in the past. While Ares is stronger than them, he isn't so durable that they can't hurt him, especially with Baldur, who has been stated as being second in physical stats only to Thor himself.

They haven't fought this level of competition before and have no feats that would suggest them being able to hold their own here.

I've already stated that Balder would give Ares a decent fight, but the Warriors Three are playing out of their league. They're appearance in Blood Oath suggests that they serve more for comic relief than anything else.

I get that, and I'm saying that you need to give them more credit. They are much more imperssive in their classic appearances.

Not impressive enough to beat an immortal who has come very close to defeating Hercules on a few occasions.

I guess having a sword capable of withstanding and reflecting energy attacks from two of the U-Foes to the point where it essentially obliterated the viewers of a football game isn't very impressive. in the slightest. Or fighting constantly again foes like Frost Giants, etc wouldn't give them enough ability to stave off Ares for ten minutes. And who said anything about beating Ares? No one has even made the claim that these three would be responsible for beating Ares.

Balder has the sword of frey which means Ares would'nt be able to do anything with his axe. Also volstagg put up a good fight against the thor clone during siege so i wouldn't count him out of the fight
