Well Slades a real tough SOB but he HAS to be.He takes on an entire Titans team he better be tough.Hes got just enough strength to not be turned into goo getting punched by Cyborg and just enough speed and brainpower to survive a fight against a Kid Flash.While he doesnt overwhelm opponents with godly power like IG Wolverine hes got a good chance against alot of opponents
That being said ill say Thorpool beats him just to contribute to the topic
Originally posted by long pigNot really. In the fights they had I think Wolvie's the only one who scored a hit. Their last fight was cut short because Cyclops did the wise thing and blasted DS during the fight. You are talking about X-Men/Teen Titans right?
Wolvie has a better chance than anyone. Deathstroke's promethium sword would do well against wolverines claws.They faught before, and Wolvie basically says slades too fast for him.
Slade smacked wolvie away with one hand, not considering him a threat...big mistake.
He then dodged wolvies attacks, and wolvie yelled "CRIPES! And I thought I was fast!".
Later on, wolverine sneaks up behind slade and attacks, slade dodges and cyke shoots him from behind. Logan got one hit in, but only because Slade was taking on multiple enemies at once. Slade won imo, considering the circumstances. 7 against 1.
Also, like I've pointed out before, Slade went years without having full potential powers, and in the x-over he probably wasn't 75% his normal power. He only got total control in the past 5 years.
Now, he'd dominate wolvie, as he did back then.
I've got the issue right in front of me. You might wanna read it again. It's in Vol.1 of Crossover Classics(Bought it when I liked crossovers). I don't see Slade smacking Wolvie anywhere in here. I'm sleepy, but I'm pretty sure sure I'm right about this. You've got things a little out of order.
1st encounter: DS is talking to himself and looking @ a large machine. Wolvie sneaks up on him with a blunt and asks him for a light. DS says "SURE. I'M IMPRESSED. I DIDN'T THINK ANYONE COULD GET THE DROP ON ME. YOU SHOULD HAVE STRUCK WHILE YOU HAD THE CHANCE FELLA. THAT BIT OF BRAVADO WILL COST YOU" as he swings his power staff @ Wolvie. Wolvie ducks. DS says "WHAT--?! I MISSED!".
Wolvie says "TOO BAD. I DIDN'T." as he backfists DS, knocking all but DS's legs off panel. DS later thinks to himself **IF NOT FOR MY SUPER FAST REFLEXES, WOLVERINE'S PUNCH WOULD HAVE KAYO'D ME. BUT IT DIDN'T. AND HE DIDN'T TAKE A SECOND LOOK TO MAKE SURE. A FATAL MISTAKE**
Mr X is ridiculous....but yea, he would slap DS around. Although he is a human, with normal brain capacity...none of that matters in Marvel since they dont go out of their way to explain every characters use of their brain capacity...even though that idea about regular people only using 10% of their brain is a myth.
He isn't a mutant, he's just an awesome fighter and good at reading peoples moves and can predict their next move by reading their body. Batgirl is the master of that, and she said it was impossible to read Slades movements, and he beat her senseless. Wolverine also beat Mister X because his moves weren't readable.
DS would eat Mister X.
And for the x-over, I haven't read it in weeks, but I have it and I was almost perfectly right, you did point out something I missed though, so i guess you win? 😄.
I'll post scans of it later on tomorrow.
If I remeber right, Mr. X is a mutant guys. There was a 3pt. tournament in Wolverine v1 #167 Wolverine v1 #168 and either Wolverine v1 #169 or 166. I've gotta look for it. Anyway Wolvie says that X is a mindreader who discovered his abilities by reading the mind of a dying person. With no Prof. X around to guide him, he didn't know how to deal w/this. He went crazy and likes reading the minds of people as they die. This tournament featured many great fighters, Taskmaster was there, Toad(I think) and a few others. X kicked Taskys a$$. The logic behind it was that the best fighters think 2 or 3 moves ahead. With his mindreading, X was able to put down most. Wolverine beat him in this tale by going into a Berserker rage, because when he's in one even he has no idea what he's gonna do next.
Mister X has no super human powers, however he is one of the greatest Martial Artist in the world. He is trained in almost every martial-arts discipline and his body is a lethal weapon. He is also a master of virtually all hand-to-hand weapons and many missile-based weapons. Mister is also an acrobat and his speed levels are nearly super human.
He's basically like Batgirl(batgirl lived most of her life as a mute, and read peoples mind/intentions by their body movement), they both are masters at reading their opponets body, basically seeing what they are going to do next by seeing what they did before.

1) I'm going to agree here, only because I can't think of a way for Slade to win right now. 😉2) No. Apparently, the Black Tarantula isn't resistant to bullets. He has regenerative powers, but apparently it's something he has to consciously do. If he gets shot and killed... how will he heal? Answer: he won't.
3) If only because he'll keep coming and he's incredibly durable. It's not hard to outsmart Ghost Rider, however, and to use the Penance Stare, he'd have to get a hold of him; Slade's far faster than GR, however.
4) Nope. Slade can, at the very least, match his fighting skills, but then he's also physically enhanced and is his tactical superior.
5) Possibly, but unlikely. No matter how smart BP is, he's no Deathstroke. That and Slade has superior weaponry.
6) Nope. The score between them is 2-0... in Slade's favor. Batman would only win if he planned it out in advance without Slade's knowledge / gets the drop on him and wears him down before engaging in a physical fight.
7) It's quite possible, but unlikely. Already explained why in other threads.
2)Black Tarantula possess superhuman durability, he proved it against the henchmen of Fortunatos using their Hydra armors against him, he just got his costume ruined and reported low level injuries, he stated he'll heal back soon or later, no matter what you throw at him.This guy is immortal, if you kill him he can come back to life, his stamina outclasses that of Spidey in everyway, and many of Don Fortunato's bodyguard shooted him in his rampage in the mansion and he don't even feel it.BT is unstoppable unless you are Luke Cage or a high level brick guy.
3)Penance Stare works on who shred innocents blood just for personal reasons.Has Slade done it?If the answer is yes, he's going down.
4)Taskmaster will put up a great fight, but Slade is in a league of his own.He'll beat Taskmaster after letting him pull out every fighting style than show him who the Master.
5)Black Panther is going to loose too.I think that if Slade is hired to kill BP and he hunts down him to Wakanda, he'll beat the King in his realm after a great fight.
6)Batman is going down.
7)Spidey is just another super powered guy, and Slade has faced many of them.If Hobgoblin with his goblin gadgets can give him troubles, Slade will show Spidey that marvel universe costumed mercenaries are kitties compared to him.
8)Temugin without his rings beat down Iron Man.Slade will put up a great fight, and maybe they'll stalemate or Slade will go all out and thanks to his reaction time he'll lay the lethal strike.
If Temugin get his rings, Slade needs prep time.The mandarin's son has become one with the rings, he's above his father.
9)Nick Fury with his vast weaponry and experience may give Deathstroke major troubles, but I think the fight will end with Deathstroke: Wanted By Shield dead or alive.
10)The power of the Iron Fist can destroy a city, altough Danny isn't a hero that goes all out in everyfight.I think that his experience with metahumans will help Slade into coming on top even in this fight, but he must pay attention when IF's hands are glowing of energy.

Not hardly, the best comparsion to Batgirl would be Taskmaster and even his ability is more effective then Cass'. Mr. X is a mutant he can read his opponents mind and knows exactly what they are going to do and he also has some empath abilities it seems. Characters like Mr. X and Bloodshadow can't even be compared to Batgirl because they are so much higher.
Any guy who beats down Taskmaster with little effort owns DS even harder.
