My heart says Bucky but logic and feats say Taskmaster.

Bucky will find a way!

Actually he will find a way to get killed by tasky

@slimj87d: Didn't show up when I searched it. And also, the set-up here is different than it was for that one. So it's technically not the same.

@shroudofsorrow: Technically, almost all those conditions exist if you look through them all. Even Udon versions. Just saying.

Taskmaster

@slimj87d: But not all in one thread. :)

Well in any event, the general consensus is that Bucky loses. Which is also what I suspected the outcome would be. Ah well.

Taskmaster, all rounds.

Except maybe 1.

I don't think it's a slaughter in anyway. Taskmaster has done really well against super heroes who have morals, Bucky doesn't have as high morals as normal Super heroes do. Taskmaster has freaked out when he fought super heroes that have lower morals such as Moon Knight and Deadpool.

Taskmaster is also not familiar with Bucky's fighting style, and their fight didn't come to a conclusion or really even start.

Taskmaster also doesn't know about Bucky's metal arm which can lead to an element of surprise.

I think Taskmaster will win, but Bucky is going to give him hell and he's not going to leave without blood coming out of his mouth.

If I were to argue more for Bucky, I would point out this fight takes place in Avengers tower, somewhere Bucky has worked before and is familiar with. He also has better stealth feats than Taskmaster.

Factoring all those out, I would say 6/10 Taskmaster or stalemate due to Bucky having the stealth and surrounding advantage.

@jmarshmallow: Wouldn't Bucky as Cap stand as good a chance or better against Taskmaster than Winter Soldier?

Probably @shroudofsoreo

@shroudofsorrow: IMO Bucky has more impressive feats as Winter Soldier than he does as Cap.

@jmarshmallow: Really? Alright then. He would have Cap's shield as uh, Cap, but of course Taskmaster knows all about that thing, so I guess that's not much of an edge in Bucky's favor.

I don't see the difference. The only thing that Captain America Bucky has is a shield. The gear is virtually the same. Both suits are bullet proof and impact resistant. When he was Cap, in his apartment, he still had a number of assault and sniper rifles along with tons of explosives in his vault as shown in New Avengers when he tried to hand everyone a gun and he still shot Madame Masque in the face.

Task still wins this by a solid majority

@slimj87d: To be fair all that pertains more to loadout, not actual feats. I think he was talking about combat showings and the like.

Yes, but Winter Soldier has the same load out as Bucky cap minus the shield, unless if you want to give him an assault rifle or something, but he has used an assault rifle as both before as well. That's all I'm saying. Unless if you want to use "Brainwashed Winter Soldier."

*shrugs*

I think Bucky has a really good chance due to the fight taking place in Avengers Tower. There is a lot of gizmos in there for him to use. Also, he should be more familiar with the layout than Taskmaster.

Lol the layout will give him a slight advantage but not enough to take a non-pis tasky

Taskmaster all rounds.

Taskmaster, Bucky is a tricky little bugger, though.

@iragexcudder said:

Yeah, I think it's a close fight. Especially since Bucky has a "home field advantage".

Very true. You got that scan of Bucky playing Possum?

@iragexcudder: No unfortunately I do not.

Damn, i just saw it yesterday and i dont remember where :/
