Why didn't Michael Jordan win a championship with the Washington Wizards? He's considered by many to be the best basketball player to ever play the game, and is also considered one of the greatest team leaders to ever grace the court.
He lost because even though he was a great leader....his supporting cast wasn't up to snub.
Wolverine has shown on MANY occasions that he prefers to defect from the group and go it alone.
Can you even name one instance where the 3 of these characters worked together in a combined effort? I mean..."these guys have worked together in the past at one point or another" doesn't really support your arguement.
If the three haven't worked together before (at the same time) then the premise for you deductive conclusion is false. Which means your conclusion is also false.
If the three have worked together, but at separate times. Then your inductive arguement is weak. Saying "Captain America has worked well with Wolverine" and "Captain America has worked well with Daredevil, thus Captain America will work well with both Daredevil and Wolverine" is a valid arguement...but it's not a strong one.
Arguement un-nullified
In the way that the cap is SUPPOSED to be written he could calculate where spiderman would be bouncing around and he could chuck his sheild in a way to hit spiderman on a rebound while spidey was in mid-air.
Just like Spiderman is SUPPOSED to have a Spider-Sense that enables him to dodge or deflect such things. Captain America's strength is said to be on par with a "perfect human" this would lead some to believe that he is anywhere from 2-4x the strength of a person in peak physical form. Spiderman's reflexes are said to be 40x that of a human being. Therefore, Captain America's strength is not sufficient enough throw the shield and score a direct hit on Spiderman without Spiderman's Spidey sense triggering enabling him time to react in some way.
Of course, I am allowing for the dual possibility that Spiderman dodging the shield could result in a kick to the face from one of the other two. Just the same as a potential deflection or dodge can end up hitting one of the other two. The possibilities are somewhat a wash.
In the way that DD is SUPPOSED to be written, his senses should provide him enough reaction time to dodge ALMOST anything spidey throws a him, he should also be able to potentially kill spiderman by punching him at the perfect moment according to spideys heartbeat.
True. But in the same sense Spiderman is SUPPOSED to be written so that his reflexes and Spider-sense provide him with sufficient enough time to dodge ALMOST everything Daredevil throws at him.
Lets not get into the exploding heart arguement. Daredevil will have a hard enough time hitting Spiderman...let alone landing the kill shot from Kill Bill Vol. 2.
The difference between these two? When Spiderman hits Daredevil....Daredevil feels exceptionally more pain than Spidey.
In the way that wolviie is SUPPOSED to be written,,,,,oh man this is gonna be a long one......His super enhanced senses should nullify spidermans spidey sense (meaning they're on an even playing feild) Wolverine's hand to hand techniques shouldn't even be challengable for how is supposed to be written, His healing factor and adamantium skeleton should be able to take anything spiderman hits him with, he's also a trained tactician for how he is supposed to be written.
That's an invalid arguement. Your premise doesn't support your conclusion AT ALL. You haven't given any reason why Wolverine's enhanced sense "should nullify Spiderman's spidey sense."
Wolverine's enhanced senses enable him to smell his opponent and to track down their location. Spiderman's Spidey sense is an early warning system that detects potential threats in the near future. Thus, in a fight, Spiderman's spidey sense is a MUCH more valuable asset than Wolverine's enhanced sense.
True, Wolverine's martial arts techniques, adamantium skeleton, and healing are key advantages over Spiderman, but that doesnt' make him unstoppable. Spiderman is much much faster and has quicker reflexes than Wolverine. His strength trounces Wolverine as well.
In the same sense that Wolverine is written to be a tactician, Spiderman is written to use his brains more than his brawn against the type of characters who won't be as negatively affected by sheer brute strength.
In the way that these three are supposed to be written spiderman still really doesn't stand a chance,,,,,,well maybe a slim chance,,,,,about as much as a snowball in hell.
By the same token, Spiderman is written to stand a chance in hell against the most heinous of odds.
But...in the end I must agree. Though I think Spiderman would put up a greater fight than most will give him credit for...
In the end he really can't overcome the combined efforts of all 3 characters.
