Jean Paul should be able to give Blade a good fight. Especially if "the system" is working. I think Jean Paul can win 6/10

Looking at Azrael it's clear he resembles Raziel the Soul Reaver. I think Blade would take this one though.

Genetic enhancement and mental programming gives him super-strength, speed, agility and endurance. Also highly skilled in combat.

His powers are activated by putting on his mask. Most people point to him getting beaten by Batman during the 'Knightsend' arc, but that was only because the Bat-costume caused the 'System' (the mental programming) to malfunction. So not only was he mentally unstable, he was physically weaker too. At his peak he soundly defeated Batman, dumped him in a river and then saved him from drowning.

Feats include surviving a toxic waste bath, throwing around stone altars and defeating Bane after being shipwrecked and having single-handedly beaten a forced Venom addiction.

Check his respect thread for details.

Wow and in yours, two swords, but he still hung in there. Both times they had to stab from behind.

He passed out, as I said. The opposite of what you hoped him to do.

As for your scan. Try reading it the next time, dummie laughing out loud

Blade barely has any quality HF feats to speak of.

He got stabbed and survived. What is there to debate? Who cares what organs were missed. All that means is Azrael would almost certainly have to hit vital organs to drop Blade while Blade is facing him. And do you think Blade is just going to stand there and let that happen?

Why are you always reaching? And then making some desperate attempt to start an argument with name calling?

Azrael is definitely more durable and skilled than Blade.

Aren't Azrael's skills more artificial? Blade's is the real deal. Blade is at least 72, but stays young because of the healing factor.

What do you mean? It took Cassandra Cain, Batwing, and Batwoman to put him down.

I wouldn't consider the skill gap so wide that Blade isn't at least his equal. Mainly I mean that Blade has been fighting for longer. I could see Blade taking those three, mostly because of speed.

Blade couldn't take Cassandra alone, IMO. Cassandra is above Batman (according to him), and owned Nightwing. They're in totally 2 different classes of skill, IMO.

Azrael with the Suit of Sorrows is more durable, has the skill advantage (SOS makes the user into the perfect assassin), and is stronger (the user has all the strength who wore the SOS in the past).

You don't think Blade could take Cassandra??

I highly disagree. And the SOS can't be that great if a bunch of peak to below humans can take him down.

Blade routinely fights and beats people stronger and faster than at least two out of those three. Cass has never really beaten Deathstroke, who I consider probably Blade's equal.

Who cares about him surviving it...? He's on his f*cking knees.

Characters WITHOUT healing factors have taken more damage than that.

Fun fact, most writers have completely ignored that part of his powerset.

Took him f*cking FORTY YEARS to get some decent healing feats --- and two stabs still put him to sleep just fine.

Name some. Show some.

I also have scans of Blade getting shot, and shrugging it off. He's also been tortured, poisoned, impaled, and crucified only to break free and display superhuman feats of strength.

Good for you. The complete respect thread was made three years before you started plaguing this board with your presence - Blade was not impressive then, he sure is not going to be impressive now.

For one Blade isn't that skilled. I mean he's no slouch but he's not exactly a grade A martial artist. You're confusing the Wesley Snipes version with the comic imo. If I had to rank him Id place him at a notch below Grayson but his vampire physicals boost him so he can compete outside his skill tier. So all things being equal nightwing would kick his ass but as is it would be competitive. But that's NW..the only bat-family characters he could decisively beat skill wise is Drake or mayyyybe Damian, or Kate or Stephanie..probably Luke. But when you get to the big names like Todd/Dick Bruce Cass his stat advantage wont eclispe their skill edge and he's done for..which brings us to Az. Who is simply beyond him. Im not even wanking the character because i particularly don't care for him save a few appearances but respect is due. Their is no physical advantage for Blade to take and skills wise he's two great plus the SOS trumps any edged weapon he has.

Blade isn't that skilled? I'm not confusing Wesley Snipes with anything. Blade isn't that skilled? Try telling that to Marvel. Anything they have as far as describing him as a martial artist, they go as far as calling him a "master." Who has created his own brand of fighting tailored to not only defeating vampires but "creatures of the night." You need to do some more reading on Blade.

And you really think those members of the bat family can defeat a skilled superhuman like Blade?

I'll create a thread on this shit tomorrow. We'll see what the masses think. And while you're at it, you may want to go and check some other comic boards like comicvine when it comes to Blade fighting members of the bat family. I'll save you some time, it doesn't look good for any of them.

Here's what youtube had to say about Blade vs. Azrael

I'm just talking pure skill. Blade isn't on Batman's level, who routinely takes on beings stronger than he is. Bane for example.

This is one thing Vanguard got right, actually.

Azrael has been subjected to the psychological conditioning.

Of course he has progressed since his debut, but at his core, he is indeed only "artificially" skilled.

Bane is stronger than Blade? Blade who has handled a vampiric Spiderman. Check out his strength rating on marvel.com, both he and Spiderman are 4's. And then theirs Blade snapping chains while weakened, bending metal doors, throwing people across rooms...etc..

Kick out Bane's best strength feats then.

And unlike you, I take everything into account. Strength ratings
established by people who are closer to the comics than both you or me , feats, bio's, everything.

Again, you don't know what those ratings mean.

"4" means anywhere between 800 pounds and 25 tons.

Pound for pound, yes. But I was just giving one example. Batman was strong enough to knock wonder woman for a loop. Skilled enough to stalemate Karate Kid. Now give me something that Blade has done to match that.

Marvel.com stats have a long history of being wrong, but like I said - being "4" in strength doesn't make him Spider-Man's equal. It only means he's in the 800 lbs - 25 tons range:

I know about that bio. I've seen the bio and read it many times. It's old. And who knows how accurate? That's why I think it's bullshit to rely on any one source. He's done plenty of things to contradict that.

Bane is a class 2, yet Jason Todd can kick him off like he's a lightweight.

Senor Cage
Bane was strong enough to take down sololom grundy, lift statues, which are about 20 tons or more. Hes stronger than Blade on average.

I got Blade bending elevator doors and lifting statue's too. I can't claim how much any of these statue's weigh though.

But that's not Bane's strongest. Bane is a meta without the venom, with it, hes likely stronger than Blade, and with higher end feats.
