@mr_ingenuity: Eh.. Raizo seems a little OP in terms of speed. I looked over some Blade fights and even he wasn't so fast he was moving in a blur/almost invisible. I think Blade could cope with his movement speed (like when he fought Deacon Frost), and is in my opinion the superior sword fighter. He'll get tagged a few times to begin with but, once he realizes the speed he's dealing with it's only a matter of time before he lands a killing blow. Blade's been able to fight and stalemate two ninja vampires who trained and prepared for years to assassinate him, in a random encounter. And these are vampires who were fast enough to sidestep an automatic assault rifle 10 feet and away and closing. I don't know much about Raizo's durability or healing but Blade has tanked massive shots from Dracula which sent him flying in the air about 20 or so feet, and can heal most slash/stab wounds fairly quickly. I think it'd make sense for those two swordsmen to go at it.
Wesley is pretty tricky but I think his downfall will be his reaction speed. He has completely superhuman accuracy but how does he react to ranged projectiles? Blade, Blonsky and Cap all have projectiles of their own, and I don't know how Wesley is going to be able to cope with any of them, besides jumping into cover. On approach Blade and Blonsky would likely hose down your team with automatic fire, and Cap is no stranger himself to ricochet shots. If any of them tag Wesley good it's likely to be over soon, and it'll be over even quicker if Wesley is caught in hand-to-hand. And in regards to my teams reaction speed - Cap's been able to block bullets/energy blasts with his shield and can sprint at a considerably fast pace, so I feel like he can cope, and would only be hit with a glancing shot if any. And even if he is, his suit and own durability should be able to cope (like when he was shot with a Chitauri blaster and when he was propelled out a 3 story building onto the back of a car). Blade has a bulletproof suit and impressive durability/healing, Blonsky survived a kick from the Hulk and sprints insanely fast. Ozy caught a bullet. Not saying he'll go around catching bullets, but that certainly shows that he's quick enough to cope.
John Preston seems like he has insane accuracy and situational awareness, but for the same reasons has the same problem as Wesley. Together they're some force but I feel like my teams ability to tank/react to gunfire, own ranged offence, and their proficiency in close quarters will be able to win them the day.
@i_like_swords:
Khan - genetically enhanced super-soldier, á la Captain America, but with better durability/strength feats
Arrow - Oliver Queen, no intro necessary, I'm sure
Deathstroke - same as Ollie, but if you must know, he's also a superhuman soldier, same as Khan (even better in some aspects)
Wesley Gibson - nothing too great about his physical stats (apart from some good durability showings), but this guy can kill a man from two miles away before he even arrives, slaughter dozens of mooks expertly without even looking, and has insane aim with pistols.
Khan has the vitals superior to Steve's, and will make short work of him (despite the shield). Deathstroke and Oliver would be enough to bring down Ozy while Wesley keeps the other two at bay with a barrage of gunfire, maybe even killing Blonsky in the process. Then, it's all three versus Blade, who goes down after a good fight.
Can I see a video of Khan? I don't mind opponent who are ever so slightly superior to mine but if it's by a good amount they'll kinda need swapped out. Anyway, I don't think having superior physicals alone will be able to stop Cap. Cap has fought evenly with Loki who has better physicals than his own, as well as Red Skull who is his physical equal. How skilled is he?
Everyone on my team can react to arrow-fire and in some cases, tank it. And I'm willing to bet anyone on my team can take Arrow in close combat (even Blonsky due to pure physicals alone. His strength speed and durability are pretty crazy, and he would have Special Forces training).
My counter to Deathstroke is the same as my one to Khan. How skilled is he?
I talked about Wesley in the post above. I feel like my team can react to the gunfire, and in some cases tank it, bus Wesley cannot take what he dishes out. One clean bash, shot or strike should take him out of this.
I think the problem with your strategy is that you're picturing how you want the fight to go rather than how it could go. Cap and Blonsky would probably go after either Khan or Deathstroke since all of them have that super soldier air about them. Wesley is sure to hang back, which is going to hinder your team alot. Like I said, one clean shot from anyone and he's out of here. And to put the nail in the coffin, you've went and said that Blade would go down in a good fight vs THREE of your team members. What happens in this fight when everyones bullets bounce off his suit and he gets his hands on one of them? Thats a crushed windpipe, broken ribs, punch in the groin, stab in the heart or probably some other type of lethal blow, all administered by a superhuman Dhampir. Blade should by all rights be the MVP in close combat here, and should make short work of anyone on your team.
@i_like_swords: Black Dynamite has super speed, has his tricky shuriken, and is super good at fighting and has a good shot. He can take any member of your team.
Nick Fury has the skills and intel on Cap and likely Blonksy and can easily hold them off.
Rock's character from Fast Five was big, strong, and had big guns. in Fast 6 he was lifting and throwing around men who had to be at least 250-300 pounds like they were nothing. He's good enough to hold his own.
Heimdall can see all and was able to chase down a ship and bring it down with his knives.
So Heimdall and Black Dynamite take on Blade and Ozymandias respectively. Fury keeps Cap or Blonksy busy, The Rock keeps the other one busy. Then we win via number games after Black Dynamite and Heimdall take down the two they're fighting. That or Dynamite solos with his tricky shuriken boomerang things.
Can I see a vid of Black Dynamite? Not sure how to gauge him at the moment.
I'm sorry but how is Fury contending with anyone on my team? Fury's hand-to-hand skills are nowhere near Cap, Blade or Ozy's and is marksmanship was average. He'd be taken out relatively quickly by anyone here (even Blonsky due to physicals alone).
He was big and strong but Cap, Blonsky and Blade are all stronger. Blonsky with no strain at all held a man vertically with an outstretched arm while conversating, and even lowered him down like a bicep curl without strain before dropping him. I don't see how Rock's character lasts in this fight whatsoever. Not only is he weaker than most of my team (although to be fair he was quite strong), he's nowhere near as skilled as anyone here, has no reaction feats in order to counter ranged, and has no close combat weapons. Anyone here would make quick work of him.
I have no idea who Heimdall is. Me needs a video.
@i_like_swords:
The Doctor
TDKR batman+ gear
Cyberman from Doctor who
Dalke from Doctor who
If we were to take away plot power, anyone on my team could just kill the Doctor no sweat. But if we went down the whole "talking down, exploiting weaknesses, sonic screwdriver" route then he could solo.
Dark Knight Rises Batman is good, but not good enough. He fought Ras, Blade is better than Ras. He fought Bane, Cap is better than Bane. Ozy for the same reasons takes him, and I believe he'd put up a good fight against Blonsky if he used stealth, but his physicals are just too much.
Cybermen may be too durable to be honest, same with Daleks. I mean they're completely bulletproof. However I do foresee Cap deflecting their energy blasts back at them, and the Daleks "eye" being removed.
