See... Sensible... Not stupid.
Here are my picks:
1. Omega Red(Red kills his a$$)
2. Black Tarantula(Beats Slade senseless)
3. Ghost Rider(Even without the penance stare, I think he could)
4. Taskmaster(maybe, very good match)
5. Black Panther(again, maybe, very good match)
6. Batman(could go either way)
7. Spiderman(Spidey could very well take him, good fight)
1) I'm going to agree here, only because I can't think of a way for Slade to win right now.
2) No. Apparently, the Black Tarantula isn't resistant to bullets. He has regenerative powers, but apparently it's something he has to consciously do. If he gets shot and killed... how will he heal? Answer: he won't.
3) If only because he'll keep coming and he's incredibly durable. It's not hard to outsmart Ghost Rider, however, and to use the Penance Stare, he'd have to get a hold of him; Slade's far faster than GR, however.
4) Nope. Slade can, at the very least, match his fighting skills, but then he's also physically enhanced and is his tactical superior.
5) Possibly, but unlikely. No matter how smart BP is, he's no Deathstroke. That and Slade has superior weaponry.
6) Nope. The score between them is 2-0... in Slade's favor. Batman would only win if he planned it out in advance without Slade's knowledge / gets the drop on him and wears him down before engaging in a physical fight.
7) It's quite possible, but unlikely. Already explained why in other threads.
Taskmaster? Not the slightest chance IMO. Slade perfected the "hard to read fighting style" way before deadpool, Slade would eat tasky.
Ghostrider and OR are the only ones on the list that could kick the crap out of him.
BlackPanter has a good chance, but he's just a few ticks below Slade at everything.
I would have said Black T, but if what wanderer said was true, then no.
2. He also has enhanced physical traits, BT could very well KO Slade. He could step into his sword or bullet, and deal a finishing blow knowing full well that he can heal himself after. BT wins
3. Sure he's faster, but I don't see any way that Slade could permanently put him down. Don't forget GR's chains, which are similar to Spawns chains. He could also emit hellfire from his hands, and has mental control over his motorcycle. I think Slade loses here.
4. You could be very well right here. But, if Taskmaster can hang with Deathstroke for a few minutes, he could possibly learn his style, then proceed to beat him. That's if he can hang with him for awhile. It's possible.
5. BP also has enhanced traints, but to what degree is a mystery to me. This fight could go either way, but Slade I think will take it more often than not.
6. I agree with you here. Batman isn't so tough after all
(Hides fearing Bat fanboy backlash )
7. I know you and longpig are gonna disagree, but I'm going to side with Digi on this one and say Spidey could take Slade.
Man, how is he going to take a bullet to smack Slade down if he gets shot in the face?
He could learn his style, but Slade's body language is nearly impossible to predict, which is how Tasky uses other people's moves against them.
He could, but Slade has already fought and beaten people stronger, faster, and smarter than Peter. I just don't see him winning under most circumstances.
If I did that thing, I would. ...I'm thinkin' about it.
In response to the quote above, how is Slade gonna shoot him in the face when BT gets in his face and starts pounding away on him. You seen what he did to Spiderman. He made him look like a child.
1. Morlun (Spidey beat him by injecting radioactive fluid into himself, which means, his weakness is radiation, if Slade doesn't know that, he's fu<ked)
2. Iron Fist has a good chance of kicking his a$$. Good pick jrodslam
3. Dr. Strange (Close Quarter Combat) - He beat Black Panther and Mantis in a straight up fight. Give Strange a admantium sword or staff, Slade his prometheum sword and let'em battle it out, way of the warrior style... No guns... No spells... Just pure martial combat. If Slade resorts to any of his tricks, you know Strange will mess him up bad with his spells.
Deathstroke isn't nearly as fromable an opponent as many on this forum would like to think he is. With out one sided prep Eddie Fyers, Nightwing, Azrael, and Batgirl have all even Deathstroke trouble, even stalemating him! DS is highly overrated on these forums.
For the record DS and Batman are not 2-0, they fought in Deathstroke #7 and Detective Comics #710 and are 1-1.
And Snake-eyes would destroy Slade

Hehe. I got mentioned without even posting on this thread. I'll consider it a compliment. I'd like to see Midnighter fight him. Total brain functioning and mad skills vs. a man who can see a battle thousands of ways before it even starts. And they're both hardcore and have no qualms about killing.
And I know popular consensus is that Slade would win, but I still say Spidey would pull out the 'W' after a hard-fought match.
After seeing the new Batman movie, I actually have some newfound respect for Bats (the movie's cool too) but he'd still lose. And I'm not sure about a lot of other guys.
Explain the context and sub plots of his fights with nightwing and azreal and batgirl, and you'll see why they give him trouble.
It's 2-0, 1-1 only if you count being rifle butted from behind while looking through a scope trying to assassinate someone, but before that, in the same issue, he lays batman down twice in a row.
