okay i am pretty familiar with enmey of the state, and since forum rules say that both characters know of each other i am going to say that 1 caps shield is reflective enough to show gorgon his own reflection, and 2, cap is very strategic in battle and wouldnt simply engage in this fight in h2h. He would most likely attmpt to get gorgon to flash his eyes, but if he doesnt bite, then cap will be looking to decapitate him with the shield.
Gorgon was not nearly as fast or strong as people beilvie that is all gypsie magic. When him and wolverine finally went head to head, wolverine cut Stabbed and slashed gorgon far more times than gorgon did him, its just they had no affect. Meaning that yes wolverine was better fighter, but he finally faced someone with more durablitly than even him.
Yes i know gorgon did WHAIL on Elektra and that was bad ass. But if elektra got trunced like that, and wolverine didnt, im just going to say that it was a bad showing for Elektra.
Now on durability, Gorgon was pretty much a living corpse so cap would know that he doesnt need to breathe. and he never really showed much of a healing facotr, it was simply like he was just a dead guy and didnt give a shit about his corpse of a body, now yes im guessing the wounds healed but none of them instantly. Meaning that IF nerve and joint locks work on dead people, then they should work on him.
The Gameplan : Cap goes in the fight looking to try to get gorgons glasses off or and get him to stone himself, or to joint lock him into abyss, and then finish him via crushing his skull into mush.
Now for the sword, im pretty sure cap would go for the crushing of the wrist tendons, so that gorgon is only allowed to use his legs, or he would most likely just shut down his body completley with a nerve strike to the brain stem.
I dont beleive gorgon lifted anything to show that he was superior to Cap in strength. though he might have lifted a steel beam or soemthing...im not sure my enemy or the state and Agent of shield is at my Instructors house i am letting him borrow it. Gorgon has shown to be equally fast to wolverine, but not faster. In the final fight they were equals in terms of speed, and wolverine got off shots which would prove fatal to a mortal opponent. So Cap now since he has knowlege of Gorgon, he will be prepared to make all of his shots count.
And gorgon needs some feats on his list, to make him stronger, faster,more durable,nor smarter battle wise than Cap. So cap takes this one. 9/10. And so would wolverine in the rematch
