So, can the man with no fear accomplish what the Dark Knight could not?

BEAUTIFULLY DONE!....his biggest challenges IMO are ...
 
6th encounter. Scarecrow is ready for him and I have read a story where Daredevil broke the glass and entered a building full of gas and had problems with that. Since Scarecrow is prepared for hiim you have to know some fear gas will be involved. However DD does know about Scarecrow and will most likely be expecting it.
 
10th Poison Ivy could prove a problem for DD, although I would think he would be able to detect her pheremones before they altered his mind.
 
11th- The Joker is too unpredictable and maniacal to think this would be easy. DD should be able to defeat him, but the Joker is DANGERUOUS, especially with time to prep, although DD should be able to detect and avoid his traps. Exhaustion wil be setting in so he may make a mistake and you cn't do that against the Joker on his own turf.
 
12 and 13 - Normally he should take these, however in his weakened and exhausted state I don't think he can do it. Batman couldn't handle it all, after evrything thathappens in these other fights Daredevil will be ragged and Bane is a tough and skilled opponent who could very well beat him.

Fantastic, absolutely fantastic. I'll be coming back to this one later.

After travelling approximately 3.2 Km, he still should be at a premium condition (he travels greater distances than just this one in every night shift). Knowing who the Hatter is (OP rules) he will expect him mind controlling some guards/troops/inmates to oppose him. Since the people here are not trained, and they don't act on their own will, overwhelming them will not be much of a problem. DD casually defeats lesser ninjas, and Arkham inmates are hardly on that level. One machine gun is not enough to stop him, either. The Hatter has neither the technique, nor the physical ability to elude DD for too long, as well. Another easy win.

From what I recall of Ventriloquist, he is not exactly formidable in h2h, so he will probably avoid confronting DD directly, relying on the location, and his partner to stop him. This is were his radar sense begins to prove invaluable. Rapid heartbeat, heavy breathing, irregular pulse, all these can potentially pin point each of his opponents location, to DD. Amygdala may be stronger than your average thug, but he is far less skilled than DD, and severely lacks in intelligence, as well. A nerve strike would end a fight before it drags more. DD already knows he has a many things to accomplish to actually win this "gauntlet". After that, subduing Ventriloquist won't be much of a problem, seeing that he would have managed to familiarize himself with the location, as much as the villain himself would. Bird attacking out of the blue won't be no real danger either, seeing that DD is still at a very good shape here, and he will probably be focused enough to detect this surprise attack. While it surely isn't impossible to get the drop on him, I don't believe this would the case here.

Threats: Mr. Zsasz (2 knives) 
Innocents: He has 5 female hostages. 
Rules: Zsasz is expecting Daredevil.

"

 The Devil has covered 7 miles already, but since he has faced relatively easy opposition, I believe he will still be able to retain his physical condition at a 80-85%. Now, this is the most difficult challenge yet, since DD will first and foremost want to make certain that the hostages are safe. Assuming that the hostages are all in the same floor as Zsasz, and the villain himself is aware of DD approaching, DD would have to play it safe and try to distract Zsasz, making him feel insecure as to where exactly DD is (DD will know where Zsasz and the hostages will be), maybe cause a distraction on a higher/lesser floor and make him think he is there. Zsasz may, or may not take the bait, but he will, at the very least, feel a bit uncertain. Based on his heartbeat, DD will know if the plan was successful, or not. Disabling the lights would also be an option, but that could cause Zsasz to begin threatening/injuring/killing the hostages, and that would be against anything DD stands for, and as such, I don't believe he would attempt it. The final choice would be to use a more direct approach, enter the floor Zsasz is in, by the nearest window, and try and separate him from the hostages as soon as possible. It maybe reckless, but it is probably the best option DD has here. Of course, if all these take place at night, the easier it will be for DD. Zsasz may try to fool him by leaving some lights open, or shutting down all the lights in the first place (remember, Zsasz knowing DD is coming, does not necessitate that he knows DD is blind; most of the people in the MU do not, as well..), hoping that the prior knowledge of the location would give him a great advantage. Little does he know that this would be like digging his own grave.

 OK. So, DD is now beginning to wear out. If he managed to take down Zsasz easily (which I doubt, unless my last option is permitted - not that I consider it far fetched, but maybe it is considered "cheating", and takes away the pleasure of the thread), he will still begin to tire by the great distances he needs to cover. It's 12 miles (19.2 Km) already, and counting...Considering the high level threat that Killer Croc is (...), DD will be completely in tune with his radar sense, and will probably dodge the initial rock attack without trouble. Taking  Croc's  great durability  (...) into account, DD one shooting him shouldn't be considered out of the question. Seriously, this is maybe the easiest challenge so far. Croc doesn't even have the mind to try and attempt to ambush DD, and will more than likely try to face him head on. Despite his fatigue, DD will have no trouble here. If Bane manages to surprise him (mostly due to fatigue clouding his judgment), it will be a very close fight, but I still see DD winning, more often than not. He isn't that tired to succumb easily at this point. If his radar sense pin points Bane, this will be easier.
 
 
More of this, later tonight.

The Devil takes this without any of them noticing what hit them. He broke into the Kingpin's office and went through his guards without having much of a problem. I think Matt is smart enough to disable the lights, and give himself an even greater advantage. He can locate the guards from their heartbeats, and lead them to safety, or advise them a safe way out, if necessary. He ends this at 100%.

OK. For a while I thought it had something to do with the thread.

The picture would be very useful there. "

k4tzm4n usually makes good fights and has credibility so I don't find anything wrong with his fights. I'll probably check out that other fight later on though "

" Very well done so far.  I must say I'm in complete agreement except for one thing, Amygdala.  While I entirely agree it is possible for DD to bring him down without being touched, I see it as being likely Amygdala will get a hit in, due to the small nature of the environment, hindering DD's agility.

"I can agree with that. I just don't think it extremely possible. "

He gets stopped at Scarecrow. Scarecrow releases gas and takes him down hard. Remember, Mr. Fear's gas may not be composed of the same stuff and Crane is a much better manipulator than Mr. Fear. Failing that, Scarecrow goes Scarebeast and beats him down.

A+ post once again K4tzm4n...
Imo i  think DD can make it all the way to the 6th scenario..Then things start heating up abit..I can see the 10 gun bearers here being a problem because they are under the influence of Scarecrow.. He could just play it safe & have them surrond him in a corner as bodyguards waiting for DD to attack..This could be one long drawn out battle imo.

This is really cool, Maybe they should make a video game of it... lol

"Dude I think he gets to  4 maybe "

Mr. Fear "

Killer Corc wears him down, making him more vulnerable against Scarecrow's gas. Even if he managed to take out Scarecrow, he still has to go through a heavily armed Joker.

I think Poison Ivy is the biggest threat to him here
