they walked through the bullets until the go too close, blade genetered enough force to crack ones head and knock it off balance, while it took multiple shots from the troops to take out the mindless ones
Actually I was reading that comic and apparently BB took on The Invaders thats Captain America, Namor and the original Human Torch. I dont know what happened exactly but if hes that tough hes no average vampire and im not even sure if Blade could beat him in combat.
Well in the death of Wolverine arc Azreal stated that Wolverines HF is now reduced. Yeah Blade fought him before his downgrade but he didnt manages to disable his claws using his barehands.

That's usually how it goes for a first appearance in comics for villains. Honestly Dracula has beaten the X-Men and Blade does well against him. Sh!t Blade fought Dracula back in the 70's and held his own.
To be fair I don't think he tried.

Yeah but to be fair even when Cap fougt him was tough, in their first encounter Cap used prep and in their second fight had Union Jack with him. I guess showings vary but its not a foregone conclusion that Blade could beat him.
I think I see what you mean but SHIELD did offer him unlimited weapons to hunt vampires and Blade was clearly enthusiastic.

Blade would have a rough time with Baron Blood, I'm not denying that. Baron Blood I hope makes a comeback in MI:13 as all of the vampires are back in action now.
I was talking about Blade didn't try to disable Logan's claws.

I think it would be unfair to assume that he can do it eventhough he hasnt dont stuff like that.
I dont see why he wouldnt do it when it could give him an advantage in combat. In fact in that very fight they had it would have been more of a reason for Blade to do it when he wasnt trying to kill him just bring him in.

Yeah but Blade also studied a file on Wolverine as well, not sure if that gave him more knowledge on Wolverine than Cap but from what I know of Blade he would have studied it pretty well.
Sure Cap knows Wolverine but he did that move because he could, the fact that Blade resorted to trying to turn him implies that he couldnt have taken down Wolverine through skill or would have had a very hard time.

That's highy possible. But Blade employed tactics that those very files should have made very clear that wouldn't put Logan down, like the stabbing him, or shooting him, or punching him. Those files should have made it clear that those types of tactics would be futile against Logan.

Yes but stabbing and shooting does work it depends on how skillful you are. Gorgon and Cap have used skill to help them defeat Wolverine, Blade resorted to try and turn him, it implies Cap is more skillful.

haha...LOL. To be fair though only the very best would be able to defeat Wolverine with sword strikes. Gorgon would probably beat Cap. With guns it depends on how many guns they are, what range and where you aim for.
