Normbolts VS Marauders

No one on the Ledger liked this....So enjoy :( 

Marauders:
-Sabretooth (no adamantium)
-Gambit (bo-staff, 3 decks)
-Harpoon (quiver of harpoons)
-Riptide
-Arclight
-Vertigo
-Blockbuster
-Scalphunter (accurate assault rifle w/ scope, large blade)

VS

 
Normbolts:
Green Goblin (Glider, bag of bombs, razorbats)
Bullseye (daggers, sais)
Venom (Gargan)
Headsman (glider, power-axe)
Swordsman (standard blade)
Grizzly
Nuke/Scourge (assault rifle)

  
Location:
Downtown Tokyo.  Unpopulated, begin at opposite ends of a main street (roughly 200 feet).  Everyone begins on the ground level.  Everything is on limits.

Rules:
-Neither team has knowledge.
-Morals apply.
-Standard elimination rules.    

Assuming Gambit doesn't have his death powers?

THOR WINZ.
 
But this is interesting...I'd leaning towards Norman's Thunderbolts because of Venom and Grizzly, but Vertigo could def turn the tables for Marauders. Scratch that, I'm choosing the Marauders

LOL.  You outdebated yourself. "

BA BUMP, this is a fantastic thread. THINK, YOU FOOLS. Stop going the easy route and simply picking your favorite character. This shits infinitely more exciting to think about

Marauders

"the Thunderbolts--The Marauders greatest feat was killing a race of unarmed non powerful mutants, then ganging up on the X-Men, The Thunderbolts are comprised of some the most dangerous villians in Marvel, who, have probably killed a lot more people "

No. 
1) The Marauder's have done well against the X-Men at least twice now. 
2) Most dangerous villains? You must be kidding me.  I'm a big fan of them, but they're hardly the deadliest, even in terms of street level.   And having a higher kill count doesn't mean jack, especially considering they've had dozens of more appearances.

@texasdeathmatch:
Vertigo was definitely the wildcard, but we've seen characters capable of fighting their way through it.

Keep the hate roll going.  At this rate, you'll be banned here and forced to spend all your time at the Ledger :D

I'm cool with that. I'm surrounded by children on this forum. I hope these mods realize they're regulating a bunch of 12 year olds who apparently don't go to school and just sit on this site everyday. "

I think I'm going to give a very small edge to the Marauders. They just seem to have more heavy hitters than the Bolts do. Venom, of course, is a good heavy hitter, but I can see him getting taken out by Arclight very quickly. And there are some members of the Bolts who rarely get good showing in any fight (namely Headsman, Swordsman, and Grizzly). The Marauders, on the other hand, have Sabretooth (solid high-tier street leveler), Vertigo (good mass-incapacitation power), Blockbuster (by far the strongest player on the field) and several other threats.  

As much as I don't want to go against my boy Bullseye and Venom, I think the Marauders would win. Blockbuster could take several enemies at once, Sabretooth would be tough to eliminate, and the rest of the team could hold their own somewhat. And like Prodigy stated, Arclight has a sufficient means to deal with Venom.

" I think Blockbuster is being slighty overrated.  Sure, he's a good brawler, but Cyc KO'd him with a regular level optic blast in the Mutant Massacre. "

This is a really good match. A case could be made for either side. Kudos, K4tz

" @texasdeathmatch: Which one is your thread? "

@Ferro Vida:
He lies!  It's not even close to the quality of Gambit VS Galactus.

I seem to recall he traded a couple of blows with Thor in the Mutant Massacre too. "

yeah, prism has a very fragile body.  jean grey smashed him against a wall with her TK. 
 
I say the mauraders win.  scalphunter is almost a good a shot as bullseye.  i don't think any of them can hurt blockbuster.  arclight is a very good long distance asset.  i'm pretty sure sabretooth could take venom and the others could easily be distracted by vertigo and easily picked off by riptide and harpoon and gambit.

I belive that T-Bolts can win it mainly thanks to GG and Venom. Grizly > Blockbuster IMO. I also belive that Bullseye will be a bigger threat than Scalphunter, even if Scalp has better equipment.

ANCIENT BUMP!

Normbolts.

Why?
