MN is no slouch in the enchanced human department area either.

Problem is he does not know the best way to fight you, if he does not have prior knowledge of his opponent.

Both calculate at super speed that’s a given. MN takes it a step further, and stats he can come up with 100 ways to counter a hit.

That’s nice and all, but your dealing with a person that has years of experience, that matches his reaction time. Maybe even exceeds him.

To make matters worse, DS can tank better blows then MN thanks to his superior healing.

isn't slade far superior when it comes to speed, strength and healing factor? These alone would make MN have a tuff time. And the fact that slade is so ruthless and methodic makes me think this one is not easy to call.

FAR superior? Arguable.

Also, I'd have to agree with you - this one would be tough to call one way or the other.

He does get basic data (see forum rules). Plus as the fight continues he'll be able to get a better and better idea of how to respond.

MN can also dish out more damage with each blow.

Slade healing factor is a non factor. It is normally crapp and would mean nothing to the fight. He has ahd a few occassion were the healing factor was good however those were out of character events and most of the time his healing factor is not going to be very effectvie in a fight

We are talking about deathstoke here. If anyone in comics can beat MN, it's DS.

I'm not sure.

The longer this goes the more even it starts to seem.

Speed - I would say Slade gas the advantage.
Strength - Um…tough call even I suppose.
Healing - Slade (I think this is one of his obvious advantages).

H2h combat - this is ware it comes down because many factors come into effect. I say Slade, because MN calculation speed isn’t enough to overwhelm Slades. Agility and strength are even. But Speed and healing I give to Slade. I think combat experience would be hard to draw the line, but I have a gut feeling that 70+ year old man that takes on GL, Flash, WW etc…(with much Jobbing but what can I say it’s a comic) would be given the edge.

*nods* This really does seem dead even, for the most part.

I'm so proud of this fight. 😄

Hard fight to call but my mind keep saying slade. He's is just one of the best street level characters out there. It aint to many fighters in comics that can take him. I can only think of 2 and its because of there healing factors.

Hear the Breakdown...

Strength: Even. I wouldn't put either one above 5tons. And their striking damages are about the same.

Durability: Slade> Midnighter. While the both of them are tough as hell Slade has two decent advantages over Midnighter. One he has pretty durable armour the same one that took the tank round to the chest. As well as survived a grenade explosion at point blank. Wally described beating on Slade to be similar to hitting a brick wall. And while it isn't too battle powerful Slade does still possess a haling factor.

reflexes: Slade=Midnighter. I've seen Slade,while sitting down get shot at by three guys with machine guns, nd before the bullets it he umps up out through the sunroof and decapitates them in one swing. And I've also seen midnighter kick a shell back at a tank as well as yawning while dodging gunfire. It is really hard to say anyone is faster int hs department.

Hand to Hand: Slade=Midnighter. I imagine that without their powers both men would probably still be well, trained though not exceptional martial artists. While he could goonsweep like madman Midnighter deosn't do as well against names. Slade has had trouble with really good martial artists before.

Weapons: Slade>Midnighter. Slades standdard loadout includes his sword, an energy staff, a submachine gun and wrist mounted grenades. Midnighter uses a staff and some throwing stars. hile Midnighter noally does well agianst theses sorts f weapons in the hands of someone like Slade they are far moe dngerous.

over all: Deathstroke 6/10. Barely. I think his greater durablity will tell allowing him to eek out a W after along life threating fight.
