Captain America Vs. Gambit

Um it doesnt work lihe that im afraid. It seems stats wise both Cap and Gamnbit are similar. Gambit does not have better reflxes because he uses a staff he has better reflxes because he is used to using it.

It could be argued that Cap will be more accurate with his shield because he has more experience.

Caps chainmail would help though it can withstand automatic machine gunfire at close range. I think Cap loses 7/10 though.

Err...no. On both counts.

So he's used to the staff. Doesn't change the fact that his reflexes are possibly even faster than Caps. He DEFLECTS BULLETS WITH HIS STAFF. Cap deflects bullets with his SHIELD. You tell me which one is more impressive. 😬

And Cap's chainmail does not withstand automatic machine gunfire at close range. That's a load of bull. For one, chainmail just isn't that strong. Two, there's a LOT of bullets for a machine gun. Three? If he can take it, why does he dodge em all the time? 😕

But, I just now noticed that you agreed with my outcome, so I'll let all of this slide. 👆

no i meant yea to ur first statement, idunno of ne others

I would have to give a very slight edge to Gambit based just on powers but taking in the fact of Cap’s combat experience I would give him the edge in the final battle. Gambit is to hot headed and reacts mostly on instincts which has gotten him beat many times and Cap is to cool headed and been doing it for many more years.

Okay. My suspicions are now confirmed. You think Gambit is a pre-schooler in man's body.

Cap is going to be the one needing to watch out. Gambit will be raining explosions on him. Lemme tell you. Agility is great and all, but you can't necessarily dodge an explosion right next to you. Gambit doesn't need to hit Cap directly, just get his cards near him. And that, my friend, is VERY easy for a guy like Gambit.

Cap throws his shield, Gambit deflects it. Cap charges Gambit, Gambit either hits him with his staff, explodes the ground underneath him, or just unleashes a fury of cards to hit Cap himself.

Gambit has way too many advantages.

Gambit for the win.

And Cap can take the normal explosions gambit puts on his cards, but to be completley honest.....real world...as in like they are both serious....

Cap throws the shield at gambit so hard and fast that even when gambit blocks it it nearly takes his head off.

gambit would have to deflect the shield more than once, he would literally have to do it more than 20 times, and the shield is coming hard meaning that when he hits gambit's staff he can potentially knock the staff out his hands or knock him back with the blunt force.

Why would he choose to block it? He's plenty agile enough to completley dodge it.

And I sincerley doubt that Cap can take a direct blast from a card.

Alternativley, what if Gambit charges up other thing's in the enviroment as well? Cap can't dodge forever, and once he throws his sheild, as you seem determined that he will, he can only dodge.

Gambit gets so much disrespect...

And if cap can eat a HUGE tank of Octane blowing up RIGHT by him, he can take a card.

Cap can catch gambit in literally about 1 second literally, so gambit wont have much time to charge nuthing

You seem to think that Gambit is a statue...

He is AT LEAST as agile as Cap, though thats being nice to Cap. And if Cap can take one card, how would he fare against 52?

And he wouldn't need to get a direct hit, unlike a machinegun. And he has better aim

Well, Gambit IS more accurate. How's that for one?

You do know even one of his normal cards causes quite the explosion right? I don't think I recall Cap ever taking a full-on explosion RIGHT in front of his face.

And no, Cap can't "catch gambit in literally about 1 second literally". Gambit is actually more agile than Cap, due to his MUTATION.

OR do you use the one card can blow out a floor of a building explosion?

Keep in mind that isn't even the largest explosion he can do. I'd imagine it would actually be the minimum he'd use if he was serious like you said.

It isn't disrespecting Gambit if he loses to Captain America, not by a long shot.

Cap throws his shield and it'll be more of a distraction really, if Gambit dodges that'll leave him wide-open to Captain America's attack, he'll close the gab almost instantly and all Cap really needs is just one clean shot on him. Cap has done that a number of times to superhumans that includes Spiderman.

I don't think that'll happen off the bat though, I see Cap blocking and dodging everything Gambit throws at him untill that opening reveals itself at which point it's all down hill for Gambit there there. And thats if Cap doesn't take the offensive early.

Yada...yada...

Captain America 8/10

The same way you think Captain America can hit Gambit with his shield, yet men with machine guns can't get a clean shot on Gambit.

Yes, Captain could probably take one the explosions Gambit uses when he only intends to like...break something. However, you underestimate Gambit's intelligence. Which type of explosions do YOU think Gambit will use? Put yourself in his shoes. You're about to fight THE Captain America. Do you use the attention-getter explosion like this one?

OR do you use the [B]one card can blow out a floor of a building explosion?

Keep in mind that isn't even the largest explosion he can do. I'd imagine it would actually be the minimum he'd use if he was serious like you said. [/B]

I think this pretty much speaks for itself.

Perhaps...

OR

Cap throws his shield, as Gambit draws a card. Neatly dodging the attack, Gambit draws a charged card. Cap remains on the offensive, backing up his sheild with a running attack. Neatly sidestepping the captain, Gambit releases a charged card to his face. If CA needs to get his bearings, if only for a second, Gambit can follow up with a staff attack, or more cards. However, in the anticipation that I'll be told how wrong I am, let's say he dodges the explosion. Gambit already has more charged cards, and, with unnerring accuracy, releases them towards Cap, while remaining on the offensive. With superior agility, reflexes and speed, coupled with the ability to always remain on the offensive, he will inevitably get the ultimate win.

I have one thing to ask...Has anyone ever heard of 52 card pickup?
