OR does the Black Widow entry include every Red Room operative whose carried the title?

Also, Agent Zero/Maverik to Second Tier.


I agree

Blade is a master martial artist. Handbooks say it and do do his fights. If Marvel recognized it why can't you?

Funny. What has Zero done to make him a level above Blade? Handbooks put him at level 4.

yea whoopy inconistented and god awful hand books.

really who has blade taken out through skill that makes him second tier? Hell I be more willing to put Punisher to second tier then Blade, becuase Punisher actually has some feats vs skilled MA's.

actually your right agent zero should not be moved up. Most of his fights are with weapons, he yet to display straight h2h feat asside from wrecking sabre-tooth.

He took out 4 Doombots using Krav Maga iirc. Blade usually don't fight without weapons but he has. He's taken down a room full of Thralls(stronger than humans) using h2h skill.

In your world it may not but in the Marvel editorial it does.

Look at the people in tier 3, a large amount of them have a significant skill edge over Blade. Shadowcat, Night Thrasher, Shatterstar, KGBeast, Bane, Azrael, Pyslock, Punisher, Black Knight? These are all people that have actual shown themselves to be incredibly skilled by proving themselves against other established MAs. You should be thankful Blade is even talked about on the same level as most of the people in tier 3, because the majority of them are a hell of a lot more skilled than he is.

Putting Blade in the same level as Nightcrawler, Shadowcat?

Punisher should be moved up a notch and so should Blade. How the hell can you guys argue against Marvel and how they rank their characters? I've never understood it.

Because no one cares about Handbook entrys except you?

Blade's skills are a joke compared to Nightcrawler or Shadowcat. Kitty's held her own against Silver Samurai in sword play, she'd pawn Blade.

Srank....you are officialy a f*cking moron.

Blade's skills are a joke next to Shadowcat's and his sword skills are a joke to Nightcrawlers....LOL!!

So in reality....so we should just put Blade at 4th tier? Is that where he ranks?

Both of them are accomplished swordsmen that have proved themselves against other accomplished swordsmen? Blade? He managed to beat his vampire girlfriend in a spar. Awesome!

Seriously, stop typing your posts with the boner you get from Blade and take your head out of your ass.

Blade is a third tier fighter. He is a c-lister. He is third string. If he wants to get off the bench he needs to do more than beat some robots.

So Nightcralwer can beat Blade in a sword fight and Kitty can beat Blade in a h2h fight?

Damm....Blade is only a 4th tier fighter.

You apparently seem to suffering from the delusion that everyone in tier 3 has to be the equal of each other, but that isn't the case. Some people - like Black Knight and Shadow Cat - in tier three are at the top of the bracket, nearing eligibility to tier 2, some people - like Onyx and Mockingbird - are closer to the bottom of the bracket and just outside of tier 4. Blade is in the middle of tier 3.

And since apparently you don't know any better, Kurt is a fantastic swordsman. He is a first rate swashbuckling rogue. Do some home work before you open your mouth?

You just said Blade's skills are a joke compared to Kitty's and Kurt's. They should not be in the same level if his skills are a joke to theirs.

There is plenty of room for skill differentials with in each tier. If you are having trouble imagining it, break up tier 3 in your head into three more tiers - A, B, C - and then maybe you will be able to picture it.

You full of it. If Blade's skills are a joke to the other guys in the group he does not desever to be there.

If you want Blade moved down another tier, I'm not going to stop you, but I don't see how I can explain this any simpler to you...

Stop being obtuse?
