I duno
I think he could, i just dont know what feat constitutes as "ok, if you dodge _ _ you can probably doge caps shield"
IMO, gambit has shown the agility and dodgeing finess to do so
and at the same time, cap has shown plenty of throwing feats that constitue he could
it could go either way, and at the same time, truthfully i believe cap will have an equally hard time trying to stay away from the explosions of 30+ cards flying at him (& whatever else gambit decides to toss or charge)
Originally posted by ExtraMision5555see the genius in the shield throw isnt that cap actually hits gambit with it, because he doesnt have to, he just has to make gambit not pay attention to him for a fraction of a second, And then the fights over.

Originally posted by FranciscoOr it could work better because since it absorbs energy he can store more energy in it or that it takes less effort to charge it.
Vibranium does absorb energy so probably it won't work the way Gambit would like. He should be charge the chainmail or the little wings on Cap's helmet.

On other thing is that the entire shield is not made of Vibranium, the inside straps are made of something else if I remember right.
That doesnt matter because the shield would absorb the energy meaning it would not affect the straps. Some other things:
1. You were right about my scans but it is more complex than doing a snooker trick shot, but im not backing down on that 50 foot shot...thats standard hero difficulty.
2. On the Gambit respect thread it says that his powers give him enhanced mobility not reflexes.
internal energy also grants him heightened agility
Gambit loses both fights.
Originally posted by AlfheimIf the energy is absorbed in the shield then yes it won’t affect the straps but if he touches the straps then yes, now the problem is touching the straps as it is flying faster than a bullet I don’t think he can do. So I will concede that Gambit can’t charge the shield in flight if the shield won’t hold a charge.

However the 50 foot shot with a playing card is not something that any shooter can do, most of the shooters like Punisher, Hawkeye and the like are using things that are designed to be a projectile where as a playing card is not. The distance that Gambit can throw his cards sometimes several hundred feet with something that isn’t designed to go through the air is very impressive.

Yeah but his respect thread says that his powers give him ehanced mobility.....that would include his fingers. Therefore he could probably throw light objects with more force.
Also his cards are charged with kinetic energy wouldnt this slightly affect the property of the cards?
Originally posted by AlfheimI never said that he had super human reflexes, but his skill and combat experience allows him to deal with people that do. 😉

Edit: Well the property of that the impact but not the physical characteristics such as weight and aerodynamics.
