John Preston, armed with two pistols, one full clip each, and a katana

VS

Daredevil, film version, armed with his modified billy club


They are fighting in the Colosseum. They start facing each other with ten feet between them. They know nothing of each other prior to the fight. To win one must kill or incapacitate the other.

Preston from Equilibrium? He wins.

Preston.

Preston

I might even give it to Preston with just a sword.

Wasn't Daredevil a bullet timer?

Schaefer

Preston shoots him many times.

Yep, Preston from Equilibrium. Why do you think he wins?

No. He can't move as fast or faster than bullets in either the comics or the film, or any version I know of, although he can aim-dodge, of course.

You don't think Daredevil has anny chance at all?

He has a chance, albeit a small one. Daredevil is used to aim-dodging random thugs with guns, and Bullseye never used a gun in the movie IIRC. He hasn't faced someone with Preston's level of accuracy before.

That's a fair point, although he has faced Bullseye, armed with stuff to throw rather than shoot, but nevertheless, his aim is pretty friggin' impressive.

Doesn't Preston predict where the person will be then shoot in that direction?

I forgot how their gunfu worked.

Gun Kata, from the film Equilibrium:

At 10'' Daredevil has no chance, Preston won't miss. If they started within arms' reach he'd have a better chance, but I'd still put my money on Preston.

Fair points, thanks for the details, dude. Do you think Daredevil would win if they started within arms reach of each other, or just not lose as quickly?

Its about knowing the most likely placement of enemies due to statistics and the like.

Not sure Daredevil really falls under that kind of criteria.

DD would get dropped real quick.
He can't dodge them bullets which would be coming at him at critical angles.

What do you mean by "critical angles"?

Preston ain't no Wesley Gibson.

Daredevil isn't going to be in the most likely places fodder would be, anyway. Especially given that the guy likes going up and over his enemies, which most humans can't do.

10 ft apart? Preston wins.

Opposite sides of the Colosseum? DD wins.

Opposite sides of the Colosseum? DD wins. Pretty much.

Care to state why you think those two things?

Stating why you think things is for girls.

Well i think Preston wins because he practically sees things the way DD does, with the whole Gun Kata Training and what not.

Aww s*** walked into that one.

10 ft apart Preston shoots DD eventually.

Opposite sides of the stadium DD hits out the lights using his clubs and creates darkness.

Those better be some loud lights, which i suppose is possible with the whir of electricity. However a stadium uses a shirt-load of lights, quite a ways off of the ground. So even if he had the foresight to plan something like that, not only would he waste all of his batons, he would leave himself open to prestons dead eye acuracy.

Yeah he dead.
