I have the omic and my scan will be back up and running at the weekend, it is a shit comic though!I will also hunt through my early Perez, Wolfman titans for Slades first appearance and scan that 😄
Neither Ravager or Deathstroke have precog. DS is an amazing battle tactition and coupled with his superior mental capacity he is often able predict the moves of his opponent but it isn't any where near the level people like long pig would like to believe.
EDIT: Rose has limited Precog actually, I changed the sentence I was writing and forgot to fix it.
No, Rose has it. Slade had it, lost it(not completely, but not extremely predictable, none of his powers were at the time), then got revamped after his series ended, and it's not showed up since. It's been exlplained a million times. Kinda like how Maverick of weapon X had it, then it goes away when he got revamped.
Rose has it because Slade injected her with the same serum he was injected with.
It hasn't shown up lately, doesn't mean it's gone....but it could be.
Slade's 'precog' works like the Midnighter's. It's not true precog, but his mind works like such a high powered computer than he can just run through all the possibilities and pick the most likely few. It's also safe to say that because his mind works so unbelievably fast and his reflexes are instantaneous, he doesn't have to outright predict what someone will do - he can just wait for the slightest twitch of movement to give him a better idea, to narrow down the possibilities. It is possible to fake Slade out, but very, very, very few people in the world are truly unpredictable in the way they move. Deadpool is something of an anomaly.
Did you guys see what he did in Identity Crisis?
He took down Elongated Man [explosive], Zatanna[Kidney shot making her puke so she couldnt cast], and The Flash [shanked him through the stomach and out the back] before green Arrow could say "Don't", then systematically defeated the rest of them, even spotting Atom in molocule size and hitting him with a lazer pointer to make him go big and crash down into Hawkman after chopping off Hawkmans wings, cut green arrows quiver in half so that wouldnt be a threat. Then turned around and grabbed ahold of Kyle's Green Lantern Ring hand and snapped all his fingers and tried to test his will against Kyle's and Kyle couldnt summon up any power from the ring while he was doing. However such a time consuming action in this "testing a theory" he called it, allowed the rest of them to get back up and Gren Arrow put one of his broken arrows in his eyes, so he flipped him over and beat the shit out of him, then they ALL grabbed him and he still managed a few blows and a cut across Hawkmans chest.
And he does this type of shit every rip like it's nothing.
So if you're gonna compare someone to him, make it someone who could take on Green Lantern, Green Arrow, Hawkman, Elongated Man, Zatanna, the Flash and Atom at the same time and make it look EASSSSYYYYYYYYY.
He's not precog really, but he uses 90% of his brain, meaning everything is slow motion to him, and in terms of tactical planning, he's already 8 moves ahead. The only person close on his capacity in terms of tactical is probably Cap or Batman/
Stronger than any regular human. [Able to lift many times his own wieght, and leap over 50 feet like it's nothing. He did these in the Hunted]
Faster than any regular human. [He's made moves too fast for flash to react to, regardless of how stupid that sounds, they say he's "Quicker where it counts."
Impeccable vision. [Spotted Atom in molocule size.]
Uses 90% of his brain. [Tactical capacity].
Super Healing - Similar to that of Wolverine.
And last. . . .He is Immortal and cannot die.
And thats not even touching base with his weaponry.

He has instant reflexes. While they are damned great, he doesn't have a "true" pre cog, not that he needs any...
Indeed Deathstroke is the better "supersoldier-like" character ever made, I think.
Look at him guys, with a little help from the writers, he beat down a JLA roster, he beat down the X-Men and Wolverine was amazed from his speed, he lifted Colossus and throwed him away, Slade can lift around 3tons, Colossus weight less than that so it's reasonable, he stomped Robin, he beat Batman, and that's an impressive feat, this guy is really a force to reckon with.

Its just within his abilities, but beating the JLA seems a little out there....

Kyle always reacts stupidly, that's his character. Slade also beat Hal jordan.
Hell, Slade was going to be a GreenLantern at one time, Hal's ring told him that if it wasn't Hal, it would'a been Slade.
The whole JLA? They have a tendency for stupidity when facing 1 foe, but do great against many, wierd.
