3) non-humans (ex: superman, thor) have the fitness and strength of a person their age who exercises regularly
See this rule? Captain America hasn't been human since World War II. As a superhuman, he won't be drained of his Super Serum just reduced to this level. A Captain America with these stats would still be more than capable of taking down pretty much everyone except Bruce and Diana with ease.
I am also curious as to why Hal's military training makes him more than just fodder but Tony's training from Captain America makes him fodder? Tony should be able to easily hang with Hal and keep him busy. Tony may not be some superskilled guy but he is by no means a bystander.
Also, why is everyone downplaying Banner here? Keep in mind that depowerment only takes away the big green Hulk it doesn't prevent any of Bruce's natural personalities from taking over. Given the right stimuli, one of the many Hulks could come out. When he was depowered, his Bannertech made him practically unkillable so he was never put into a situation that would force any of them out. He also suggested that when he was picking up WWH's stuff that he was really picking up his stuff. This means that the Green Scar, in a much weaker state, could be in this battle. The Green Scar, despite having Hulk level power, was a very capable fighter. He is easily capable of taking Cyborg, Hal, or Barry with ease.
Round 1
Rather than use TGW's pointless 1v1 setup that blindly follows the stated list, why don't we compare comparable fighters?
T'Challa versus Bruce Wayne - T'Challa is a far more vicious fighter though both are equally skilled.
Clint Barton versus Diana Prince - Clint is good but he ain't no Wonder Woman.
Natasha Romanova versus Oliver Queen - This one could go either way. Oliver is good but Black Widow has alot more experience.
Steve Rogers versus Clark Kent - Steve should be able to easily take down Clark when limited by rule number 3.
Thor Odinson versus Victor Stone - Thor has real combat training and is much bigger than Victor.
Bruce Banner versus Hal Jordan - When Bruce lets Green Scar out, Hal will get trounced.
Tony Stark versus Barry Allen - Tony Stark has been trained by Captain America and the Flash fights like an idiot when he has powers so Barry goes down hard.
Overall round one goes overwhelmingly to Marvel given that the skill gap is just too large. Overall, Marvel has 5 high end fighters to DC's 4, 2 average fighters to DC's 2, and lastly DC has a bit of dead weight in Barry Allen. Barry ultimately brings his team down which is ironic given that he is the most powerful person here when empowered.
Round 2
Survival : Marvel
T'Challa alone will gives Marvel an edge. His survival skills are easily twice as good as every person in this battle. This means that team Marvel will be a much better physical and mental condition in a fight giving them a tremendous advantage. Tony is the only bit of dead weight on team Marvel.
Victor, Barry, and Hal will be a big detriment here with Bruce, Ollie, Clark and Diana having to tow alot of weight making them more harried. They won't enter any battle in peak condition.
Weapons : Marvel
In terms of experience with available weaponry, Marvel wins this handily. T'Challa is a beast with daggers, claws, and spears. Clint is good with most but will be a terror with a bow. Natasha can assist Clint with a bow but will likely fight with daggers. Steve's shield ricocheting experience will definitely prove useful. Thor fights with one all the time and has experience with most melee weapons. Bruce fought quite handily with the Green Scar's sword and again should he bring out the Green Scar, he'll be well skilled. Only Tony can be said to have relatively no experience with medieval style weapons.
Again, Victor, Barry, and Hal are dead weight here and will require training which will again make team DC alot less capable.
Mind Games : Marvel
Marvel has 3 of the smartest people on Marvel Earth. When it comes to tactics, Marvel has 2 of the greatest tactical minds in comics backed up by some of the best improvisational tacticians on Marvel Earth. Only really Thor is somewhat lacking in the tactics department.
If DC does not strike fast enough, Tony could very well build an Iron Man and change the game.
Battle : Marvel
With the massive skill, survival, and mental advantage that Marvel has, they will triumph fairly easily.
Overall, team Marvel is already mostly human whereas most of Team DC is reliant on powers.
