Globes of darkness + physical stats that are similar if not better + better weaponry = a win for the Companions.
Matt would be the biggest challenge because Drizzt couldn't throw him off guard with the magical darkness. And T'Challas vibranium suit has always been vulnerable to slashing damage.
How is Wulfgar a weak link? His enchanted hammer kills giants and dragons with one hit and it magically returns to him. He's also physically as strong as anyone on the other team, if not more so.
Wulfgar's trained as well, and has at least peak human physical stats. Capt just underrates him compared to Bruenor and Drizzt, and overrates Bruenor a ton.
And I forgot to ask about Guen, which obviously tips it in their favor even more.
I dont overrate bruenor. You overrate drizzzt he not on a level beyond brueneor like u want to believe. Hell even the author does not know what would transpire if the two fought.
Im not underrating wulfgar. It wulfgar lack of armor thats screws him. Due to not having armor pressure point attacks will easily put him down. The other two don't have to fear that. This is why wulfgar will get taken out fast and rather easy.
now I thought the panther was not going to be used. with the panther to companions win with out it. DD takes wulfgar down fast and then it 3 vs two and im not sure drizzt and Bruenor can do that.
It's cool that you love the Companions, and I won't diagree with your assessment (Wulfgar probably is the most vulnerable of the 3), but you do overrate Bruenor. So he has some illogically high durability feats. Him and Drizzt would be like Spider-Man vs. a steel box. It would be hard to hurt the box, and it could probably beat Shocker (who couldn't) but it'll never touch Pete.
And of course Salvatore would take the high road and be ambiguous. It's his job to generate interest in the characters, not determine the outcome of fan-inspired matchups. It's also like Stan Lee saying Thor would beat anyone...a cool statement, but just false.
The author Im pritty certain knows his shit. If he thinks the match could go either way then it would. he know better then any of us.
I may overrated bruenor, but you greatly overrate drizzt. Spiderman vs a steel box............there u go overrating drizzt again and undderrating bruenor
bruenor is extremely fast and has never had porblems dealing with fast character. He stompped the crap out of dark elfs after dark elfs. Drizzt is fast but bruenor could and would hit him. Bruenor also has some rediculous reflex feats like blocking a magicall cross bolt after it was fired.
Hell I garentee drizzt would say the same thing

Well what the hell does Drizzt know anyway? I'm a far better expert on the subject.
He'd job like Pete does most times, say how tough his opponent is, attempt some "let's talk this out" pansy stuff. Then finally go Hunter on his ass and whup the crap out of him.
I think drizzt is better then the hunter. The hunter far more prone to lettng people hit him and is only better vs many opponets not really vs a single attacker.
I would say that it would be difficult for the companions to win this. Cap and Daredevil are probably on a par with Artemis Entreri in terms of reflexes, speed & endurance, and we know that the companions have trouble with him alone. Guen could swing it for them tho.
