In all seriousness, I'm PRETTY SURE Master Chief curbstomps the whole thing. This is almost spite if I didn't know how much OP hated Halo. But I might be wrong.

Master Chief clears, easily. Nobody in this entire gauntlet would even cause a shield flare up except for Deadshot.

Master Chief could only potentially be stopped by BAtman with prep. The rest of them won't be able to win it.

I edited it. 1 hour prep.

With an hour of prep Deadshot could get some heavier firepower, and Hiro could get a small army of toy minions.

Are you sure? Master Chief's armor/shields has tanked a lot of damage. Any scans on Black Canary's full potential scream?

This isn't even fully unleashed due to Dinah's Morals:

If normal BC can take out part of a building with Morals On. Morals Off would be far far worse.

That would knock him back a lot, stun him, or maybe even scrape his armor a bit, but it won't really permanently damage him much. I mean, Master Chief has survived this :

@YourNeighborhoodComicGeek: True but due to her having no Morals she doesn't have to stop screaming. How will MC even be able to get back to his feat with her continuously doing that?

@YourNeighborhoodComicGeek: Does Master Chief have his standard equipment... Assault rifle, pistol,and 2 nades or does he have some of his extra gear like armor abilities?

How does she continuously scream? She has to stop briefly after a couple minutes at most, and John has handled Covenant shields and teleporting Promethean Knights, so I don't think this should disarray him to the point of Black Canary single-handedly taking John down, although it would be a good stun-move or distraction.

Anyways, Master Chief without armor as a teenager could dodge machine-gun fire at point blank range, and a Glock 17 handgun alone is proven to be faster than the speed of sound (800 to 820 mph). If Batman can jump out of the way of her screams, I think Master Chief can do the same.

Let's say this is after Halo 4, so anything he can gather in 1 hour.

#24 Posted by Strider92 (11336 posts) - 6 months, 5 days ago - Show Bio

@YourNeighborhoodComicGeek: Jumping out the way of her screams is debatable as depending on whether she wants to KO or kill (which she never does) the cry also works as a sonic attack not just a focused blast. Does MC have any kind of resistance to sonic attacks like this?

With her cry completely unleashed I would maintain that with the rest of her team to help(she can't solo this by any means) MC would go down at 2.

Okay I see your points now. Still debatable but I could see it going either way.

It could tank direct hits from wraiths and such.

#27 Edited by Strider92 (11336 posts) - 6 months, 5 days ago - Show Bio

@CerberusPrime3k: Sonic attacks are not the same as energy attacks or missiles. Unless it has ever shown a resistance to sonics we can't simply assume it will provide any protection at all. Hypothetically assuming you're right and it can protect him what good does it do? The shield only stays up a few seconds and MC can't attack while inside it so as soon as it goes down he's back to square one.

#28 Posted by CerberusPrime3k (919 posts) - 6 months, 5 days ago - Show Bio

@Strider92: Dunno gives him a little breathing space depending on what equipment he has on him or what armor abilities he has since he'll have access to mostly whatever he needs from Halo 4 and back. He could toss a flare orb towards the group disorientate them for a bit leave a decoy pop an emp from his suit and fry what ever devices they have. How good is their durability against energy weapons? like in halo 4 we're introduced to promethian weaponry and they literally disintegrate most things they come in contact with unless equipped with good shielding but even still one well placed shot with a binary rifle(promethian sniper rifle) one shots chief.

I think Round 2 would give him trouble. He might be able to pull through though, and stomp the rest.

#30 Posted by Floopay (5631 posts) - 6 months, 5 days ago - Show Bio

@YourNeighborhoodComicGeek:

Allies I put him at about 5/10 either way.

Against the Villains though, I don't see him winning. Mainly because of Deadshot. With his arsenal MC might be boned here. In fact, I think this round would be harder than going against Batman himself.

Thanks for reading,

Stops at Round One due to resources that The Bat Family could pull together.

I mean they could with an hours prep they could rupture his shields with an EMP and proceed to slaughter him with zero morals.

Hell, an EMP then a single pistol headshot from Todd would kill him.

A pistol shot isn't going through the Mjolnir armor. Just because headshots are instant kill in gameplay doesn't mean it would work lore wise.

And I don't see how the Chief is gonna have any difficulty with Black Canary. With his speed and reaction time he can definitely headshot her before she opens her mouth.

Could clear 1. Possible stops at 2 or 3. Depending on what resources Batman gets it can go either way.

What if Jason used an RPG instead of a pistol?

That could work. The problem would be hitting the Chief with it with his speed and reaction time, which are superhuman enough that he has several ways of stopping it. He could dodge it, shoot Jason before he can fire it, or shoot the RPG mid flight.

Even if an rpg hit master chief his shields could probably take it. I honestly think he clears all rounds.

Picture is of Chief in-game, if it was a lore photo I would agree but seeing as pictures determine what version you are using...

@CBninja:

Emp would take out the shields, then a rocket would kill.

Proof, as Plasma Pistols and Power Drains are both pretty much EMPs that affect him.

There is no such thing as a different version of The Chief. There is one continuity for Halo. The games are part of the lore, you just have to understand when things are put into the game for the benefit of the player.

And if you really want to try and get technical, the headshot bonus only applies to enemies, and multiplayer. One headshot won't kill The Chief even in gameplay, so you're doubly wrong.

And a rocket's not gonna hit The Chief without outside factors helping it. Bullets are kind of slow to this guy, and he's inhumanly precise. He could easily shoot a rocket out of the air with his assault rifle.

I didn't really think of Master Chief having morals as such, being a soldier bred solely for war. But I think he should win this quite easily, not sure what Alfred would do though lmao.

You cannot add the cannon to the games as honestly it makes no sense with his feats, so to have a genuinely fair discussion you have to separate the characters into two halves, Lore Chief and Game Chief.

People behave the same way towards Deadpool as in 'Is this Deadpool written with his abilities in mind or are the they just using the healing factor to ignore his abilities'.

Picture is of Game Chief, and Nightwing has shown bullet timing feats which put him in speed above in-game Chief.

Uum, I've played it. That's my proof. If my word's not good enough for you, go and pick up one of the games and try it yourself. Just go play 20 minutes of Halo 4's campaign, and then go play Spartan Ops. Spartan Ops does have headshot damage turned on for players, and let me tell you, it's kind of annoying to actually get noob comboed by a Grunt and Carbine Jackal working together. Seriously, that's a thing.

It's a very noticeable difference from campaign to Spartan Ops. On legendary in Spartan Ops you get headshotted instantly by Elites or Jackals with a carbine if your shields go down. Snipers also one shot you. In Campaign, you can actually take some hits from headshot weapons if your shields go down. If you own any of the games from Halo2-4 this should be absurdly easy to test if you really don't believe me.

They most definitely do not. Legendary would be impossible if all enemies one shotted. Even unshielded you can still take a hit or two. The only exception to this is typically snipers, melees and some explosives. Health packs would have been pretty useless in 1 and Reach if that wasn't the case.

And I simply disagree about separating the Chief into game and lore version. I stand by what I said earlier about Halo continuity, and would like to add that it makes perfect sense to me.

@Pwok21:You don't know anything about Halo do you? First off the suit is EMP proof as stated in Fall of Reach,. second off even without shields Chief's armor can easily tank balistics. None of the Bat families weaponry will hurt him. Unless Bats uses cryo pellets on him

You cannot add the cannon to the games as honestly it makes no sense with his feats, so to have a genuinely fair discussion you have to separate the characters into two halves, Lore Chief and Game Chief.

Sorry it doesn't work like that. The Halo novels, comics, Forward Unto Dawn and Legends are all 100% canon according to Bungie, Microsoft and 343. They count.

A human can react at 215 milleseconds, a Spartan with augmentations can react at 20 milleseconds, 10.75x faster than humans, and the augmentations get better over time

The armor also amplifies this by 5 times which is 53x faster than human reaction time, even Spiderman only has reaction that's 18-20x faster than humans. The Bat family not only has no way of hurting Chief but they can't contend with his raw speed and power.

Also if you played Halo 4 you'd know that Chief survived a nuclear explosion.

Also Chief in FOR deflected a missile with his bare hands

You don't have to accept it but the fact is all Halo media is canon and counts. So yes, Chief would steamroll this gauntlet as much as I love the Bat Family, no street leveler can beat him

Next time don't talk about things you know nothing about, it only makes you look bad
