That can be said of most moral characters. Not really a big deal.

By the time Tim got to be Red Robin pre-reboot, he was pretty good. Basically he was able to put his analytical mind to fighting.

Though on the flipside, Dick got increased when he became Batman/leading up to that.

Tim got the better of Dick when they last fought pre-boot, and that was when Dick was Batman.

Red robin 4 or 5 I think. I could be misremembering, but I'm fairly sure it ends with Tim's staff on Dick's windpipe.

Yeah, that's a non-fight. Dick was trying to talk to him, Tim was the one fighting. Doesn't really count.

Shiva, Cassandra, and similar can destroy stuff above their strength level. Shang Chi can take blows he shouldn't be able to take. Cass has judo-thrown bizarro (Linda) Supergirl.

The way I read it, KK's basically those techniques refined and improved over time. What used to be rare feats created only by rare users, became studyable moves, all pieced together to make them stronger and more reliable.





Also, he needs to not talk to you.

Ever.


Val's also internally consistant. Guy was established from day one as being able to fight Superboy on an even level.

Which is different from someone who spends their career at street level, becomes popular, and suddenly starts holding his own with guys that could level mountains and tank nukes.

I still stand by my point. The Robins break up the MA tier system.

And nobody cares about Stephanie.

Nah, Tim had him by the throat.

Dick's clearly the beta.

Clearly. I'd go so far as to say he was bloodlusted. Look at the way he held Tim's arm. He either wanted blood or the D.
