seriously, i really wonder how much elektra people have seen or read.
Not much at all.
Even Frank had to give respect to Elektra. He finally cornered her and she was STILL able to take his rifle out of his hands while talking to him before he even realized she'd done it. If Batman tried that, he'd get shot.
<<Elektra goes down from a 10,000 volt current travelling up the blade of her sai that she stuck in Batman's electrified armor. Woops.>>
and if she throws the sai?
<<Elektra currently has some new powers.
But Elektra's abilities have always been extremely vague. Sometimes she has powers, sometimes she doesn't.>>
you're right, draco. but in her more recent ltd series, she was shown to be both enormously skilled h2h AND a . . . mystic. hard to categorize her powers other than 'supernatural'. she's just . . . MORE.
both written properly, this fight is pretty much dead even.
If Elektra throws her weapon, it will likely strike Batman in one of his armored areas. His armor can stop bullets, so likely it would stop a weapon hurled by a human arm cold. Although Batman might get a nasty bruise on his chest, Elektra would be off a whole lot worse if she then had to fight bloodlusted Batman h2h.

Batman got shot three times in the chest, then back-flipped over a speeding vehicle that was trying to run him over...
