I know this is a meme... buuuuuuut the halberd is a specialized weapon that excels in its role and almost no where else. The spear, however, is versatile and useful in most combat situations.
Obviously the Poleaxe is the superior weapon.
Okay I'll bite: so just what is that role? When do I need to poke and axe?
Poke horse so it doesn't run into you
Hook rider to drag him off the horse, or at least control his movement
Axe rider when he's vulnerable
