Yes I realize this has been done before but over time opinions change and characters change also, so instead of bumping an outdated thread I created a new one... I want your top ten according to skill earth base martial artists with exception of val who we can all agree is number 1.... If I should just bump old thread then that is cool,, I will do that...

Are these all current? I.e. new 52? If so then characters like Bronze Tiger, Connor Hawke, Cassandra Cain, etc would all miss out despite probably being top ten in pre-52.

Outside of DC I can't say. For DC, I'd argue it goes...

1. Karate Kid

2. Richard Dragon

3. Cassandra Cain

4. Slade Wilson

5. Lady Shiva

6. Bronze Tiger

7. Slade Wilson

8. Bruce Wayne

9. Jason Todd

10. Dick Grayson

I don't remember this. In Avengers 123 iron man, scarlet witch and black panther tried restraining her and she tossed them away (I assume using skill). Thor also tried the page before and she somehow managed to hurt vision and also tossed him and thor as well. To be fair though they weren't trying to hurt mantis and were only trying to restrain her. I agree Mantis would beat black panther pretty easily in hand to hand though.

I do have a few disagreements with your list but I think gamora should be rated lower. Bucky recently held his own against her just fine in fear itself. To my knowledge she hasn't fought any other skilled fighters aside from wolverine who she never beat (he got in a cheap shot granted). She also has some beyond street level stats under some writers.

Why is Deathstroke coming up so much? I know he's a super skilled fighter, unarmed and armed, but is his martial arts really top 10 level? Does anyone have any feats for that?

I don't know about that but Mantis is certainly better than Karnak in hand-tohand if that helps in asserting her skill level?

I see mantis as a much better version of Karnak. She has his ridiculous pressure point feats but she is basically undefeated in martial arts aside from some blind guy that had the same training as her IIRC. As much as I like T'challa he isn't beating mantis without tech.....

Nice list! I like the Ares pick. I think Drakon and Black Panther being above Batman and Richard Dragon is silly, but overall I like your list. :)

I didn't include the one million on my list.... I wasn't including val either because we can all agree he is number 1.... Cass in my opinion is more about body reading than pure skill but wouldn't have a problem with her flip flopping with logan.... As far as bats goes, he is around 15 - 20 on my list... I would put others like ben turner, drakon,and hawke(altho he is debatable). I would place bats in the area of Captain America... I also wanted just earth base heros and not Gods which is why ares, gamora or WW isn't on my list...

Quick question. Why are so many lists DC only? I'm pretty sure the OP wants to know who the best Martial Artists are out of Marvel AND DC.

Yeah, I think this is what I'm going with for now. It's almost always a crapshoot between the bottom half of the list for me; anyone of them could rank higher or lower depending on the day. Top half of the list is pretty static though.
