I think most are in agreement that Spidey would make a great opponent for Slade.
I think Carnage could pull it off too. Slade's a tough opponent though...I can still count on one hand the street-level people I'd vote for against him (SM, Carn., MN'er...that might be it right now).
Er, and I don't know much about him, but isn't Deadpool pretty much the same guy?? So he'd be about the same level and would give DS a good fight, right?

Explain the context and sub plots of his fights with nightwing and azreal and batgirl, and you'll see why they give him trouble.It's 2-0, 1-1 only if you count being rifle butted from behind while looking through a scope trying to assassinate someone, but before that, in the same issue, he lays batman down twice in a row.
The only one where that is really relavent is his first fight with Batgirl the others... not really. He was fighting Nightwing and once Dick had the oppertunity he attack and overwelmed Deathstroke with his speed and agility; nothing much in his Azrael fight except he decided to go strictly sword to sword.

Which nightwing fight are you talking about? The one where Slade punches him out a window into the water, or the one where Nightwing pays him off to not fufill his contract?
He's never overwelmed him with speed or anything else, NW lost every single time they faught.

Deadpool only has healing over Slade, everything else he's slades inferior.
Slades fast enough to take his head off.Carnage would win 9/10 if Slade didn't have any prep or know his weakness.
Actually Wade apperently has superhuman agility to rival Spider-man according to Cable/Deadpool series and low end superhuman strength (something do with killing someone with his thumb... I dont remember)

The one with the Manbat.
Man-bat was on a boat, Slade was hired to be a bodygaurd and let no one on the boat.
NW gets on the boat, frees man-bat, Slade catches him, slade beats his ass, then nightwing, seeing he's losing hard, allows Slade to punch him out of a window, so he could excape. All the while Slade holding back because he owed NW a favor.
DP is still DS' inferior in strength/speed and possibly agility.
nw#18. I'm reading it now, and it shows nw and slade fighting on the boat. NW did better than i remembered, but certainly didn't win. And he did retreat out the window via a kick and manbat's leash.
1998 was also when slades powers weren't very predictable and at some points not there at all.
After he's powers came back, NW never again was able to compete with him. Hardly landing a blow.
