4 way 4 man team battle

[Guest Dinsdale Piranha]

Lol. Either read the scan you posted, or google the word conceivable. As for physicals, I like how you couldn't provide any feats putting Cap leagues ahead of Batman as you keep saying. Every time I debate Batman, people call me biased, and I admittedly am. But this doesn't invalidate my arguments, which haven't been disproven. So instead of complaining about my bias and making  statements with virtually no evidence, try to actually counter my arguments.

 

Your argument that Batman would certainly beat Cap has been disproven. So has your argument that Batman would have no problem dealing with Cap's shield.

 

In fairness, nobody on the other side has proven that Cap would certainly defeat Batman, and you've brought up evidence to throw some doubt on Cap's physical superiority.

He wouldn't certainly win, but he would win most of the time. And again, he wouldn't have no problem with the shield, but saying that Cap will throw the shield once and end the fight simply won't be true in most cases.

 

And thanks for the issue number.

[Guest force_echo]

No, sorry, I haven't. You have just cited some unknown instance of Batman being hit by a ricocheting object. Just because I like Batman doesn't mean you can invalidate my argument.

 

 

 

 

Lets see, 300 lb triceps press (if you know anything about weights you know how insane that is), survived in vacuum for 24 seconds, benches over 1,200 lbs, gets shot with a sniper then runs down a car, and survives having a shovel rammed into his chest. Yeah, physical abilities that put him slightly below Cap.

 

 

 

 

For the purposes of this fight, it is. Batman is more skilled than Daredevil, and when has Captain America beaten Iron Fist? And Batman swats half a dozen bullets out of the air from across the room.

 

Conceded. But that says nothing about clouding his vision.

 

He is not more skilled than Daredevil, you have absolutely no proof of that, and you've never given it. You're basically just saying it. Daredevil has beaten almost every skilled martial artist in the Marvel Universe, and knows martial arts so arcane he can actually bring himself back from the dead with chi manipulation. Batman is chump change. He's beaten Iron Fist before twice, the scan from one of the fight's been posted on here before, Iron Fist couldn't deal with Cap America's unique fighting style (that he created) coupled with speed and power. He's also beaten Black Panther (twice), Wolverine, and Spider-Man (with the Iron Spider suit) among others. He's taken on f*cking Terrax. Terrax.

 

No, Batman has never put himself between a bullet and the target after its fired from across a room. He hasn't even dodged a bullet after it's been fired, and you've never given a scan to say otherwise. Cap is not peak human, no matter what Marvel says, he's faster and stronger than every other peak human in the Marvel Universe, he literally bursts a barrier that would take a focused particle beam minutes to penetrate with his shield. His feats put him on Spider-Man level in terms of strength and speed, except not even Spider-Man can one-shot KO the Rhino.

 

He has enhanced vision, and even if he can't see, he'll hear him with enhanced hearing.

[Magnamax]

Hurm, seems like this thread has been thoroughly derailed.

 

I would go with team Marvel having a slight edge over team DC, but it's pretty close. Blade seems the strongest character and Marvel has a slight skill edge on their side. Rorschach is totally outclassed, great character but he's completely useless in this fight. V fares a little better but probably can't do more hold his own for a little while, Snake Eyes and the Predator won't be working together and can probably take on most of the other heroes but anyone working as a team can take them out. Turtles work well but probably have trouble with the more physically superior characters.

 

I see it as:

 

Marvel

DC

Random

Turtles

 

Though as someone else said with a huge team battle it could really swing either way.

 

Also: I don't really understand how the skill difference between Batman and Captain America is so small. Batman has mastered 127 forms of martial arts vs. Caps training in Boxing, Judo, Aikido, and Jujutso. I think he has refined some fighting style using his shield and mixing various other fighting styles but Batman has invented like six styles of his own. I always thought this was why the fight was close: Cap's physical advantage against Bruce's skill advantage. The fight is a toss up for me, I'd probably take Batman but I can really see it going both ways.

[Guest force_echo]

How many fighting styles you know honestly doesn't count for shit, even in comics. Like I said before, Cap utilizes only a handful, and he's able to beat Iron Fist, who knows a literally infinite amount and Wolverine, who throughout the years has learned early every one the world has to offer.

[Magnamax]

Sure, but Batman uses his martial arts with greater effectiveness than those two, especially Wolverine. Knowing and mastering that many forms of martial arts and being able to consistently blend those into unique styles makes him a more skilled, unpredictable fighter than Cap.

[Guest force_echo]

No, not at all. Knowing more martial arts doesn't mean you're more skilled in real life or in comics. and to say Batman utilized martial arts more effectively than Iron Fist, is not knowing anything about the H2H capability of the best fighter in the Marvel Universe. Also, he most definitely cannot use martial arts better than Wolverine. Wolverine, when he's not beserking, has literally hundreds of years of experience to pull on.

[Guest thanosisawesome]

I find it hilarious that when Batman does something superhuman, it can't be true and is invalid. Cap does it, and it's totally fine.

 

Batman HAS created his own style, as stated in Shadow of The Bat #0. So get your facts straight. Batman knows every pressure point, can incapacitate someone in 463 ways without drawing blood, has used Chi techniques to survive in the Himalayas naked for hours and literally melt the ice, and has trained under the likes of Lady Shiva and Richard Dragon. As for Wolverine, Batman regularly goes toe-to-toe with and beats Ra's al Ghul, who has had hundreds of years more experience than Wolverine. I have proof of all the above claims if necessary.

 

Batman also regularly beats down the likes of Solomon Grundy and Blockbuster, and thrashes Bane, who lifts two tons on venom. As for bullet timing, nothing I post will convince you. But what do you call this?

Yeah, maybe because Captain America isn't a completely unassisted human. Heads up, the SUPER SOLDIER serum turned him into a SUPER SOLDIER. Despite what the Marvel wiki says (and there have been sources, like the MU Handbook that say he's enhanced human) he is not peak human.

 

Oh, he can keep himself warm and melt ice? That's very nice. Definitely more impressive than bringing yourself back from the dead, I concede all of my points. Daredevil also knows every pressure point. Yeah, he can incapacitate 463 different ways. Cool. Iron Fist can kill in an infinite number of ways. Still didn't beat Cap though. Telling me who Batman trains under makes no difference to me. Especially with Lady Shiva and the overhype that is Richard Dragon. Meh. Oh, Ra's Al Ghul has superhuman strength, an unbreakable skeleton with razor sharp claws, and a vastly superhuman regenerative factor? Wow, I didn't know that, thanks for the tip.

 

Terrax lifts over 100 tons, and is on Thor's level of strength. Rhino lifts over 75 tons. Spider-Man lifts 10 tons, and with the Starktech suit on, even more. I'm sure Batman can beat street-level-Grundy and Bane, lol.

 

I call that no proof that Batman didn't start dodging before he pulled the trigger. I call that, even if it is bullet dodging, it's not nearly as impressive as leaping across a room to catch a bullet before it fires at another person at point blank range.

[xLEGACYx]

before you two continue this flame war, they both have outrageous feats for peak human characters. (which both are)  They both are highly skilled, really strong, agile, and fast.  Cap has an advantage in endurance and Bats has an advantage in skill.  In the end it will all come down to if Bats could finish it quickly.  If not, Cap wins. (due to superior endurance)  

 

Any random encounter between the two comes down to 50/50

Heads up, the serum turns him into a peak human. This is 616 Cap, not Ultimate Cap. So you are completely wrong.

 

Proof that Daredevil knows every pressure point? And it's incapacitate in 453 ways without drawing blood. And as for bringing yourself back from the dead, that's cool and all, but wouldn't help in a fight. And when has he even done this, with no outside help? No, I'm saying that Ra's al Ghul is more skilled than Cap by a huge margin, and has hundreds of years of experience. 

 

Any of those encounters would be PIS, plain and simple. Further, I would like scans of each.

 

Nothing I say will convince you that Batman dodges bullets, no matter how many scans I show of him doing so. It's really pointless.

They can call Cap peak human all they want, but his feats shows that he is quite clearly not.

No, that is what they typically say it did, what it actually did, was turn him a super human, based on what he's done in the comics.

[Guest bigballerju]

Captain America is a enhanced human which is above peak human like Force said. Brubaker on his Captain America run changed it to that and you can probably see that for yourself in the most current Marvel Handbook which is the official canon. Captain America has feats that Batman hasn't done. Captain America can see very faster then humans for example to dodge bullets. Example here:

 

 

[Guest thanosisawesome]

Okay, this is the part I don't get. Based on what he's done in comics, Batman is superhuman, and people flip a shit when he does something like dodge bullets. But Cap, also peak human, does it, and it's fine. Both are peak human, with superhuman feats. But I think we have derailed this thread enough. You have convinced me that Cap is stronger and faster than Batman by a larger margin than I previously believed. I still think that Batman's superior skill and gadgetry would grant him the win, but it would be extremely close.

[Guest Dinsdale Piranha]

I find it hilarious that when Batman does something superhuman, it can't be true and is invalid. Cap does it, and it's totally fine.

 

It's probably because Cap has super-powers and Batman doesn't. If you give someone an origin that has scientists messing with his body to turn him into a super-soldier you have more latitude to make him do impossible things. The way DC often gives Bats these superhuman feats annoys me. IMO they should either leave him a human level character who finds a way to win in spite of his limitations and drop this crap, or else give him a new origin story where he's bitten by a radioactive bat.

 

As for Cap... Marvel's justified in making him physically superior to any human athlete because of his super powers, but maybe not that superior. With the feats that Force mentioned, he should have blown through enemies like Batroc, Tumbler and Crossbones like they weren't there. And one-shotting the Rhino is absurd. They printed it, so its canon, but this is a man who can win a head-butting contest with a Brink's truck. I doubt you could knock him out with a hundred lbs. of TNT. Realistically, Cap's punch shouldn't even have registered.

 

As for the skill difference... almost impossible to gauge, but Force is right when he says the sheer number of martial arts a person knows doesn't tell you much about their ability as a fighter. After you've studied 3-4 pretty much everything else you learn is redundant.

 

If knowing lots of arts were the measure of a fighter, Grandmaster Ron Van Clief would have dominated the early years of the UFC rather than losing his only match. I say this with a lot of respect for Van Clief, who is an amazing man. I also think that studying many martial arts is beneficial. But it doesn't make you a batter fighter. The bast way to do that is to train intensely in a small number of styles that cover the basics of striking, grappling, pressure points, etc.

[Guest bigballerju]

Batman by comic standards hasn't shown any superhuman feats to be put on that level. All his feats are peak human which is why he is just that and nothing more.

[Guest Darxeth]

Batman hasn't just studied all 127 styles, he's mastered them, which would take more time than only mastering 3.

[Magnamax]

And he's also used said styles to invent several entirely new forms of martial arts

[Guest thanosisawesome]

He is just peak human, but comic peak human. Some superhuman feats.

 

batbars_halloween.jpg

Easily bending steel bars. I am fairly confident that that is impossible.

 

batman656-manbatswing.jpg

He does use the man-bat's momentum, but swinging 600 pounds around yourself multiple times at head level easily, is also fairly physically impossible.

 

batweightraining.jpg

This picture is well known as Bruce benching 1000 lbs. But if you look carefully, the 500 pound weight isn't even the inside weight. This is past peak human.

 

batmantenses2-weightraining.jpg

This is an extremely impressive showing. With forearm, he is able to lift 300 lbs.

So yes, Batman is peak human. But he is comic peak human, and has many physically impossible feats.

[Guest force_echo]

None of those feats are physically impossible. Slicing a supersonic missile enough, that's physically impossible. Cleaving a solid metal truck in half, that's physically impossible. Busting through a particle beam-proof reactor wall with your shield is physically impossible.

[Guest force_echo]

You're completely right, having the ability to stay alive and heal yourself would be completely useless in the fight, it's much more essential to be able to melt snow.

[xLEGACYx]

thanosisawesome does have a point on the bench pressing feat.  He has 1000lbs in just two plates.  He has a larger one inside of that and two smaller ones outside of it.  Easily more than any real human could possibly do.

[Guest thanosisawesome]

Can you find me people benching at least 2000 pounds with no spotters and as a daily workout?

[Guest Darxeth]

The world record for Bench Pressing is barely over 1000 lbs. iirc. and that's from a man who physically resembles a refridgerator.

Batman is 210 lbs. Realistically speaking, it's impossible for him to lift that much weight and still maintain the speed and athleticism he has without being superhuman.

 

Alas, writers of comics spit in the face of realism for obvious reasons.

[Guest bigballerju]

Well it's comics. LOL realism pretty much went out the window a long time ago when Superman started moving planets and sneezing galaxies away. In the comics world Batman is peak human by the standards set in that world.
