Daredevil vs. Gambit

Started by juggernaut743 pages

Stalemate from what I recall. Gambit was matching him in agility also iirc.

Hasn't Gambit got better speed feats?

They're both bullet-timers. But Daredevil's reflex feats seemed slightly more impressive to me.

They had a brief tussle in Gambit series in the 90s.

Gambit has superhuman reflexes and speed.

I think this has been proven.

Also, they looked even when they fought.

Gambit wasn't using his mutant power either in that fight. Not sure if it would have made a difference.

No. Gambit has a few blocking/dodging various projectiles feats that got reposted over and over again on the web, but it's nothing beyond Daredevil. Matt has quite many evading/deflecting after the bullet has been fired feats. That's rare stuff, actually. Depending on the poster and his interpretation, those are among the most valuable feats ever.

In short, Matt benefits greatly from more appearances and not having his solo title cancelled.

Gambit has once caught a bullet,charged it and thrown it right back iirc his reflexes,speed and agility are all superhuman. He would win here,also there is. His death ability too.

Scans? There isn't a single bullet-catching feat that's not spammed on this board like crazy and I've never seen Gambit's.

He has slapped bullets out of the air though. Multiple bullets.

Daredevil's done it more times.

Agreed. More consistent with DD but I think Gambit is just as agile imo. Speed is debatable. DD is overall a far better fighter imo.

DD is solidly above Gambit physically, imo. In pretty much every department. Gambit's charging attacks might help him, but I'd still bet on Matt, personally.

Don't know. Blade is pretty fast AND he was trained by some of the same teachers who taught DD and he was still unable to tag, let alone take advantage of an ambush against Gambit.

I think he's talking about the time Gambit caught a round from a grenade launcher

ABC logic is usable now? I haven't been gone THAT long, you know...

Not a great pair of scans either, tbh.

Lol...I just wouldn't under sell Gambit. He has some good showings and even though DD is a better fighter, Gambit possessing a mutant ability could probably change this battle in his favor. He has showing proving he can at least hang with DD in physical combat.

I don't think it would be a stomp; I just don't think that it undersells Gambit to say that Matt would beat him solidly either.
