The reason you are acting childish is because you have no counter argument. You didn't prove he couldn't handle BAs speed so you try to switch the argument to lack of strength and break out decades old low showing. You are the one crying a river.
Excellent post and breath of fresh air!! I've said for years, when heralds clash, a speed advantage is NOT the different in the outcome. Some posters ignore this fact in favor of their favored character or favored comic book universe and it's ****ing sad.
But if you're not a dedicated speedster, usually that doesn't happen in comics.
How many times has Gladiator blitzed anyone, ever? How many times has Captain Marvel or Black Adam done it?

In a Wonder Woman thread, someone posted that WW had more speed. Your response? Lol, she wasn't moving at lightspeed when Deathstroke pieced her up.
I am not arguing against this, btw. Yes, it did happen. Deathstroke tagged her. Despite her having other showings where she was moving much much faster. Comics happen.
Now, you show Gladiator having bullet timing reflexes, and casually snatching the bullet out of thin air. Then show his fight with Black Bolt, as proof that Bolt has the reflexes to deal with a speedster like Glads.
Should I turn around and say, lol, Glads wasn't moving at bullet timing speed when Bolt punched him in the face?
I like this guy. He has been a great poster so far. Anyways, using Black Adam speed as a trump card with him consistently using it during this battle is like me saying BB would start off with a scream and keep it going during the entire fight. Both is wrong and goes against the character. Black Adam wins by the way.
It doesn't matter if you turn in around, it all comes back to BB being able to deal with BA's speed like he has consistently dealt with Gladiator's speed. Likewise, Thor and has dealt with Gladiator and Hyperion's speed.
Based on what? Do you think BA is a better combatant that Gladiator, a character who's every reason for living is to be a more formidable combatant? I agree with Leo, you guys overrated BA so much it's comical.
Same reason Wally/Barry finshes the Rogues at the bell, which also never happens in comics.
Guys like Quan complain about CBR logic all the time, and how they boil a fight down to power sets, but I can't see the "full capacity" rule being anything but an appeal to power sets. Otherwise, someone could argue Captain Cold beats Barry like he does in the comics, where he never, ever gets blitzed right away.u

So your arguments only apply when it suits you. Gladiator has always used his full speed in all of his fights, and if he gets tagged, its only because his opponents also possess that level of speed.
But if it's a DC character - lol. Flash gets tagged by Cap. WW never shows her speed, because she gets tagged by Deathstroke.
About Gladiator? They used the white noise to take his scream away and Gladiator one shot koed him right after that. Don't think that's a good showing to use for Bolt.
