Cole MacGrath vs Wolverine

New York City Streets.  
Logan's claws are adamantium.  
Both will be 26 ft. away.
Death or KO ftw. 
Morals are off. 
Who wins?

Electricity vs a man with metal bones?

Cole

Cole he could static cling him to the ground.

Cole, easily. He arc restrains him to a building and drains his life force.

Yup Logan isn't much compared to what Cole has fought.

Honestly? I'm not terribly fond of video game characters versus comic book ones.

From what I know of the character, he can shoot lightening in short, powerful bursts or maintain a stream of it and direct it at will.

26 feet is not a terrible distance for Logan to cover. Within a second, he could be up in Cole's face. As you are aware, there are plenty of feats that highlight this.

I can show Logan absorbing Storm's blasts from afar on multiple occasions, so a lighting blast or two is not going to take him out right away.

That, and Cole still has to nail him. He's shooting the bolts from his hands, not summoning them randomly to shoot down from the skies. Wolverine can time bullets, bolts shooting from ones hands shouldn't prove too problematic.

Whoever tags whom first wins I guess. Though I tend to believe Logan would soak far more and would require more work to put down.

In short, to 'arc restrain him' he'd have to tag him. I'm not sure what all this 'life force' draining hoopla is all about though. He can power-up from the 'neuro-electric' energy of others, but I wasn't aware he could literally drain life force. I never played InFamous though.

So whatever.

Ah. What could normal Cole do then? Just high level Electrokinesis?

Life draining, or as the game calls it "Bio-leeching," is an ability Cole can do in both Infamous and Infamous 2. Evil Cole in Infamous 2 could do a move called "Ionic Drain" in which he siphons all of the energy from beings in a wide radius, killing them. Considering that energy is pretty much the life force of most living beings, other than oxygen, him draining "life force" isn't far fetched. Since we're most likely using good Cole from Infamous 2, one would also have to take account for his newly acquired ability of controlling ice. He has combine his electric and ice power to point where he could insta-freeze an enemy with an ice rocket or grenade that doesn't require direct contact. He could use the Overlord Burst power which is a move where he concentrates electricity in his hand and fire it off at the speed of lightning, causing electricity to discharge the energy in an opponent and into the surrounding environment. This was a mostly one-hit kill when fully upgraded in the first game. Also, Cole doesn't need to tag an enemy to arc restrain them. When you unlocked a new variant of the shock grenade, the energy dispersed within the blast radius would make contact with the nearest person and take the form of the arc restraints, pinning them against the ground or wall. In short, Cole could spam lighting or ice grenades around the area between him and Wolverine and could get the incapacitation victory, considering the radius is pretty decent for the size of the grenades. Wolverine gets close? Cole in both games could shoot out a shockwave at enemies and vehicles that would also create an electromagnetic field around them, leaving them slowly floating down. Great opportunity to incapacitate with the ice/shock grenades or use the Megawatt Hammer or ice rocket. A majority of the more strong enemies, more so in Infamous 2, are fast and strong so Logan's speed alone isn't anything new to Cole, but rather his healing factor and adamantium skeleton/durability. If Cole plays it smart and defensively, which he of course will, the win isn't really too difficult at all.

Also, adamantium conducts electricity correct? If so, how did Storm's lightning not one shot Logan? A regular lightning bolt contains about one billion volts; how does his healing factor enables his neurosystem to function properly after the initial hit when consideration the currents flowing through his skeleton, heart and brain throughout his body? If anything sounds a little off honestly, it's that...IIRC, didn't Electro nearly kill him because of that or am I mistaken?

@cooljammy18:

Well, all that said, it's not really a fair fight now is it. Can literally stop Logan in his tracks instantaneously, then zap him till the lights go out.

As for Logan's skeleton, adamantium bonded on a molecular level creating beta adamantium which is akin to living collagen cells with the added bonus of being unbreakable, so I'm not really sure how it would interact with electricity. But we're talking comics here ... the dude gets crushed by a speeding truck and is up and running in less than a second. That doesn't make any more rational sense. Guess the healing factor is just that good (when plot calls it to be). Then he goes and gets KO'd by the butt end of a thrown katana. Not much to make sense of there.

Cole curbstomps.

LOL if Cole was at the beginning of Infamous 1 where he was inexperienced and learning I would of given it to Logan in a decent fight. At the end of the game and definitely in Infamous 2, Cole is a powerhouse and a little too much for Logan. Logan's best bet would be able to catch Cole when he's out of energy and trying to recharge, but I'm confident to say that Cole could deal with Logan or at least keep a good distance from him if that happens. Not to mention that Cole in Infamous 2 could create an electromagnetic field that helps him pick up almost any object of reasonable size, and throw it while it's charge with electricity, causing a good size explosion, Theoretically, when talking about Logan's skeleton, Cole could possibly do this to him if he gets lethally close lol. Cole doesn't need to be charge to do this so this could be another way to counter Wolverine's charge, if it works. Yeah, Cole definitely has this match to me. :)

You should play both Infamous games btw, they're really good. :)

Looks like Jedi already mentioned the magnetic field hehe.

Lol...

I think the most current version of Cole is too much for Wolverine.

Cole murderstomps this, lol. Cole could literally drain his life after throwing a tornado of lightning in his face and arc'ing him to the ground. Even if Cole gets stabbed by Wolverine, which wouldn't happen as he'd never get that close, Cole would just suck the electricity from a light pole or nearby electric source and heal. And Cole is durable, as he took a point blank shot from Zeke's magnum with no damage.

It's a tough battle. But i'd give it to Cole, he has more range than logan.

Cole easily wins.
