Stop at 2

Most likely stops at 2.

Is it possible for Gambit to charge Cap's shield or Panther's vibranium suit? If he can then I'm going to remove him from the fight because that would be too easy a win. I'm wondering because Cap's shield is made of a unique almost indestructible alloy, and vibraniium absorbs energy.

Ah Classic Cable, where his power was to have a bigger gun than you.

He brings the "ouch maker".

Not that it matters, Team will be lucky to get past round 2.

Since everyone feels that Round 2 is the stopping point, I've removed Domino from Round 2 to even the odds. Personally I thought Gambit and Domino would have problems getting past the shield and vibranium armor, but I'll go with the wisdom of the majority. I know Gambit charged Cap's shirt in AvX, but he did that when Cap was distracted and talking to Tony Stark over his earpiece communicator.

I think they could make it past 2

Still stops at round 2 personally, x23 will have no trouble with bps suit and i feel she can last long enough for gambit to get the win on cap

I picture Cap taking the fight to X-23 because he knows his shield can block her claws, but I guess the match-ups could go the other way as well.

i say this as a huge X-23 and Gambit fan but Black Panther could solo round 2

they clear

Bump

Round 2 seems like a close fight that could go either way. Gambit and X-23 both have some excellent hand-to-hand skills and powers to back it up.

If they make it past that, they definitely stop at 3. Fully charged Bishop can simply nuke them.
