I just do no get why people keep bringing up the four possible low showings.
1) Prowler. Lots of context in this fight. First off Miles was just getting use to his powers. Second Prolwer was his beloved Uncle, so holding back was a issue.
2) Kangroo the very first villain Miles fought. Miles won that handily too wih no Venom Sting.
3) Batroc the leaper has super human stats. He can throw a kid 100s of feet through objects as well crater concrete roads with his kicks.
4) Ringer. This was a exams of him still very early in his comic run, and he won this fight again with no Venom Sting.
These examples get brought up a lot as proof of Miles poor performance. Yet peoe forget how well Miles preform overall.
Rhino, Giant Woman, Omega Red, Venom, 616 Mysterio (Villainthat gave 616 Peter a hard time a lot), Scorpion, Warmachine(s), Task Master (did better than Spider Woman overall), Electro. All these characters that Miles beaten (and some with less effort than others) seem to get overlooked a lot in favor of the top four low showings. He even did well against a 616 Peter with a cold. Both held back in that fight.
So he is far from skill, but still has the spider speed and sense to over all dodge attacks or land his own. He is impressive for a untrained 14 year old kid who been using spider powers for only a year. Still maybe a weak link in defending himself, still maybe the best in offense with his special abities.
