"they classifying.." matters not. Name viable DS feats that Elektra CANNOT match/exceed in speed , reflex, agility and martial skill. Slades strength and durability edge are note worthy, but she stands a far better chance here then him. The skill gap is also note worthy.
Slade has enough of a speed advantage to toy with cassie casually, and has before. He also has enough combat speed while aided with his superhuman perception and calculation to engage and counteract a group of heroes along with Cassie.
Man, I still haven't even gotten to how I think the fight actually goes.
IMO, this is a lot like Elektra vs Wolverine. Although Logan is more skilled than Slade, slade's superhuman thought processes even the keel IMO
Slade is faster and stronger IMO, but he doesn't have the limiting factor that elektra pointed out to Logan in one of their fights(Logan should be able to take her anyway, IMO). She said she beat him because when he fought her, he thought to much about various things including no being lethal. Slade would have no such problem and has actually lectured people on that while engaging them himself.
One group diassembling feat is not all Slade has going for him, but I'm really started to think that this is the general perception among you and the others. Makes me wish wholeheartedly that I had been able to post all the material for my attempted revamped DS thread before my computer crashed.
I was simply pointing to the fact that she is faster than most 'superfast' metahumans and lables mean nothing. Her bulletdodging feast are better than the ones I know of him as well, including moving back in front of bulets for fun and then getting out of the way.
She was already mentioned in thread, and Slade had at least two fights with her. A character who, at her best, was stepping between bullets followed closely together like something out of The Matrix.
Slade wrecked the Titans teams a number of times. Various groupings and stuff. He's done it like 3 times just in the current series alone[in what like 70 issues or so? Decent average]. He also wrecked a few B list teams casually in his ongoing. The guy is built to be a team wrecker. He just ends up in street level books because that's where he appears to be the biggest threat when he's seen on panel.
For example;
In somewhat of a Infinite Crisis tie in issue in "Batman", Slade representing the Society drops into Gotham by Helicopter, even though he's just there momentarily for a conversation, just seeing him in the city made Jason and Bruce about shit themselves, cussing in unison.
He's just seen as a huge threat to street level competition.
Yes, Slade has certainly been defeated a couple times by DC's top street levelers,[shit, even Grundy and Grodd have been taken down by Batman] but even those are -considerably- the odd ones out next his other feats and battles.

lol, I totally had it all way back when.........then the hands of fate decided to crash my computer.I honestly was pretty bummed out and didn't even wanna retry.
...........but now I do.lol
I just started accumulating scans again today, It won't be too long at all now.
Slade isn't superhuman. DC stance seems to be "almost superhuman".
Slade has been coined a man with the strength of 10 men kind of like Cap was in the old Invader series.
Slades stats are being overrated in this thread but not as much as Elektra stats are being grosly overrated in this thread. Stat wise Slade are better but its Elektra skill that will give Slade problems for sure.
Characters like Daredevil, Shiva, Batgirl, Batman, Shang Chi, and Elektra do worldly things that look superhuman on paper but are just top humans in there verse and that's whats being confused IMHO.
Which has been referenced for Black Panther and Cap as well.
I'm sure you could find some ambiguous comment of him being termed super trooper but its not like we have ever seen before on other enhanced characters.
