Blade vs Duncan MacLeod

Ok, with all these facts that u have imprinted in your head, tell me why didn't Duncan do half of it? Screw the effects, the fight scenes were poorly done, and the sword fights sucked. The guy playing Duncan was ok, but alltogether cheesy. They did a series, they had a chance to make highlander better, and yes they made the story a bit better, but that is all. Knowing all these facts and watching the series is a sin. Cuz none of this 600 year old experience comes to life for real.
I can never see Duncan do what Blade can do, plain and simple. Duncan is bigger in stature, so all those fancy blade moves don't fit him, cuz he can't perform them! U can fantasize as much as u like about Duncans abilities, cuz I don't have to say the same about Blade.

Duncan is no more agile then a great Samurai.

coz if they tried to put the kind of special effects they used in blade into the highlander series they would go bankrupt. and there aint no actor in the world who could portray the 600 years of training duncan has.

Blade..........hands down...

duncan, a good swords man with lots of experiance

blade a "super vampie" who has probably killed more people in his life than duncan has.

blade sees duncan, ducan sees blade, ducan draws sword, blade throws glave, cuts of ducans head, blade goes home and takes a nap

wow, havent done that in a while...

He may have killed more people, but he certainly hasn't retained any of there power.

blade sees duncan, duncan sees blade, duncan draws sword, blade throws glave (which by the way isn't even the right word for it, they actually stole it from Krull.) duncan easily dodges the projectile, A flashy pointless fight takes place to the sound of hollywood techno, duncan cuts him in half, wonders what the hell all the techno was about.

and by the way you can tell, you're pretty rusty.

I bet those on Blades side simply think that the Blade movie was better than the Highlander series. THIS IS NOT A POPULARITY CONTEST. Watch the show. Duncan has fought more than just other immortals like himself(season 5 or 6). Also, when an immortal takes the head of another, they recieve their power and experience. The fact is that Duncan has the experience of 400 years AND the experience of every immortal he has killed AND the experience of every immortal that were killed by the immortals that he killed. The experience factor alone gives Duncan the win. How is Blade gonna know to decapitate Duncan, is Duncan just going to tell him thats his weakness. NO. Duncan can heal a lot faster that Blade and he will heal from ANYTHING as long as it is not decapitation. A post above states that Blade has mastered every martial art. Well so has Duncan. He has trained almost every day for 400 years. Duncan would treat Blade like a little girl. Then he would try and befriend him. If Blade declined Duncan would say: "There can be only one..." and Blade would die.

Blade will be able to fight him to a standstill, simply because his reaction time is much faster. Besides that, he's going to chop at him for a while and realize that stabbing this dude isn't working. He'll make one last move and probably slice him in half at the stomache. Senor Duncan removes his head and thinks of what a good fight it was and how upset he was that he had to kill such a skilled mortal. Then hed go and pork a chick, cause thats just how they do things in highlander.

Finally, an intelligent response....

Yes, Nataku, yes!

And here we are, we're the masters of the universe.

ya know I dont understand what all the argueing is all about... Blade and Duncan are both good guys...ergo they would not be enemies they would be friends. Anyways they are both Immortals. Neither one could really die (unless by beheadment)

Blade is good at everything. Duncan is good at everything almost. Both are nearly unkillable, both skilled in the art of swords. Although I kind of think that Blade has the edge (pun intended) in terms of weapons, but that is pretty unimportant as unless it takes off Duncan's head it wont achieve much. However I would say that Blade has a more experience fighting skilled foes then Duncan, as often would try to take off his enemies head anyway (due to those he fights). In the end it might be quite a match, but with strength, agility and healing on his side I would say Blade.

First of All, i never saw a Highlander except for the Kurgan showing superhuman strenght, and yes Duncan ripping of a metal railing but Second and more important, you're not talking about a marvel street hero without real physical super powers, you're talking of the guy that put down Dracula, that fought against Varnae, and that fough against demons and other things, Duncan has fought against immortals and mortals, but never fought demons or demigod like characters.Blade with the Sons of Midnight fought with Lilith, the max power that Duncan met in his life was Mythos.
AHighlanders heal faster than Blade?In tv series when Duncan gets hit by bullets goes down and take probably half and hour for him to heal, and remember that Blade doens't carry only a sword, he only needs to put out his uzi or 9mm gun and shoot him then seeing that he stands up starts a sword to sword fight, after seeing that stabbing Duncan doesn't works too, he perform a beheader hit, and the Highlander die.
We want to talk about Blade's resistance to injury?Get blood drained, get stabbed, cut, shot, and many other things, throw into walls and other obstacles, an Highlander would be unconscius after something like that.Or why don't we talk about Blade's strenght, he kick humans body like they are tennis balls, Duncan never show to be able to do something like that.

I give to Duncan that he has more experiecen than Blade will never possess until he lives for 400 years, but Blade has fought things that Duncan never met, so this put the fight on draw in terms of battle experience, but if we talk about physical skills, Blade has reaction times that can outmatch any highlander, the same for his agility and reflexes a human for Blade moves at slow motion.An Highlander hasn't got that kind of speed that Blade has.After a run for this money, i think that Blade would behead Duncan and ask himself how can a human be so damn skilled and heal so much faster, maybe it was a older daywalker that lose much of his strenght but was anyway a badass to deal with?
He'll never known it, now he just needs to rest cause Duncan perform a great fight.

I agree with K3VIL. Blade would have this one in his pocket without even a scratch to show for it. Unlike Blade, Duncan doesn't have an accelerated healing factor which performs on site. It takes awhile for an immortals healing to begin. In every instance from the television series and movies it takes a great deal of time for them to reawaken depending on the infliction. And since this is BLADE we're talking about we can only assume that the damage will be in great quantities. Also Blade isn't likely to stand around and let Duncan heal so that he'd get in his way again. Duncan MacLeod of the Clan MacLeod as great a swords man as he is wouldn't stand a remote chance against someone who displays super human strength, speed, agility, reflexes and over all power. Not to mention like K3VIL said...his superior arsenal. Have we forgotten that Blade isn't only human but 50% Vampire. Having all their strengths and few of their weaknesses. He's the one who went toe to toe with a genetically ENHANCED vampires that the already established Vamps couldn't even deal with in Blade 2. And he won.

As far as I see it this is a mismatched fight. Duncan is not capable regardless of his 400 years experience of taking on a foe who's got every base covered.

P.S. Connor was better than Duncan anyway. 😉 :: Holds up his Connor MacLeod Dragon head Katana. :: I am immortal! I have inside me blood of Kings! I have no rivals! No man can be my equal...send me to the future of your world!

hard to choose but duncan

most of the opinions stated above i think is based upon the movies made. the only reason why blade looks more agile and such is because his movie was made in the 21st century while the highlander movies(except the last) and the series were made in the 20th century, and that blade had marvel to back it up which means the blade movies got the edge in terms of graphics and fight scenes.

but if you really understood the character of these two swordsmen, you'd understand that blade doesn't stand a chance against duncan. the reason why they weren't able to cast duncan as the swordsman with centuries of experience is because no actor in the world can portray that kind of skill. but if you really want to get a good assesment of how duncan should be like, try to compare him to jet li in his movie "the one" where he has the strength of about a 100 men. but like i said, the highlander didn't have that kind of graphics. so forget about the movies, and read the description of each character.

If Blade can defeat Dracula then he can easily beat Duncan MacLeod. It's absurd to think otherwise.

makes a good point.

Blades got that enhanced strength, speed, reflexes, heal factor and such.

I'm going Blade. Kinda.
I can't see this going any other way. If there can only be 1, & this fight were to happen McCloud wouldn't be that 1. there would be some heads 🤣

Dracula ***** slapped blade around like a red headed step child (in the comics.) Of course he kills him in the movie, it's his movie. Duncan has killed immortals older than dracula, and retains their power. And he's killed far worste too. The only people who say Blade would win this one are the one's that have no idea what Duncan is capable of.

First of all Blade killed Dracula in comics, with a wood knife.Duncan kill immortals?Dracula is not just an immortal, he's the second vampire for power in the vampires population.And Blade also fought with Varnae and Lilith.Duncan met demigod-like characters like that in his life?I give this to Blade, and it's the right thing, Duncan would give him a run for this money but finally get killed.

Anyone reading the current Tomb of Dracula?
