Well apparently Wolverine has almost beaten Gambit before and as I was saying Jack Russel( Werewolf by night) was dodging Gambit's projectiles with ease. Gambit was even shocked because he thought he would have torn him apart.

I'd agree on the versatility advantage. All gambit need do is charge the ground that Cap stands on when he tries to close the distance.
But that advantage, in my opinion, wouldn't net Gambit the win.
Cap's survived MULTIPLE explosions before, and even temporarily being inside a reactor core.
As far as the 'charge the floor' trick, I could honestly, realistically see Cap noticing the floor charge, jumping atop his shield, and using the blast as propulsion to close the gap in a snap.
And then would annihilate Gambit up-close.
Versatility goes a long way, but I don't think it's enough to net Gambit the win. Definitely enough to net him 4/10 though.

Close-up.. although h2h obviously favours Cap, Gambit could arguably light Cap up like a Christmas tree... tis the season and all.When Digi gets on, should ask him if he can merge all the bloody Gambit/Cap threads.
Arguably. But if Cap barely let Iron Fist lay a finger on him, do you really reckon that Gambit will be able to, 😬?

He has the kinetically enhanced speed and agility thing going for him, but I don't really know... I tend to avoid Gambit in comics like the plague.
As Alfheim led on, I believe he has enhanced agility due to the kinetic energy stored within his body, but not particularly incredibly enhanced speed.
And even if he did - so does Danny Rand. Via Chi, rather than kinetic energy, though.

Chi is different, chi will increase you're reflexes.

In a comic though, Captain America would win... without a doubt...
BOOOOO!!! None of that jobber aura business.
Originally posted by AlfheimI'm not really saying that... I'm just thinking in $$$ ... it's perfectly plausible for either to win... but no editor's going to go "We'll go with the plausible way for Gambit to beat Cap rather than the plausible way for Cap to beat Gambit, that'll go down well."

Well......Cap did beatdown Spidey in his own comic book, and we know Spidey is alot more popular.........I just think if Cap beats Gambit its because hes good enough....maybe.
