no he isn't any Top Tier MA would own him

not sure sure about shang hi he was able to hang in there with thing and break down steel downs, and lets not forget his chi attack. not so sure he's in uber tier then again he's above the rest in the catagorty that his in in.

Karnak (with his abilities he should be in Top tier, but he seems more second tier)

Red skrull (same class as Captain America)

Champion of the Universe (cosmic tier)

Tasksmaster, where would he be? hes copied so many abilities and knows most of thier moves so.

Cosmic tier: (Can damage class100s with no problem)
Mantis, Gamora, Midnight Sun, Karate Kid

Uber tier: (Better than the greatest martial artists)
Stick, Gorgon, Midnighter, Deathstroke (maybe, not sure).

Top tier: (Are usually given the title "is one of the greatest martial artists in the world."😉
Cap, DD, Wolverine, Shang Chi, Black Panther, Batman, Deadpool, Nightwing, Red Hood, Robin, Green Arrow, Taskmaster, Elecktra (not sure about this one), Kingpin, Shin Kuei, Iron Fist, Lady Shiva, Batgirl, Conner Hawke

Second tier: (Close behind the best)
Punisher, Black Widow, USA Agent, Nick Fury, Azarel (mainly brute strength rather than skill), Bullseye, Moon Knight, Sabretooth, Night Thrasher (is very good but he does use a hyrdraulic suit...so thats cheating a bit)

Third tier: (Has MA training and experience, but not particularly good.....meh!)
Agents of Shield

Accomplished fighter: (May have alot of experience but very little formal training.
Spiderman, Luke Cage, Beast

He should be TopTier at least but his showings tend to be low 😬

maybe we should post soem feats to back up where we position them in the list?

yeah thats the probably most of MA's SHOULD be in one place knowing their skills but their showings in comics counters it.

Fury definetly is top tier, as is Bullseye. I don't think Deathstroke is uber tier either, purely based on skill I reckon he'd be high tier.

Taskmaster seems to be the Apocalypse of the street levelers ie jobs

Well somebody gave me a link for US agent so I put him in second tier. Yeah that would be a good idea especilaly for some of the DC MAs, but I wont be posting anyting im going now and probably wont be back till Monday.

Bullseye has be beaten by Punisher pretty badly but then again Bullseye has beaten Elecktra on a regular basis. I was thinking of making Punisher top tier.

Oh yeah I added Night Thrasher to the list above.

Are you kidding Red Hood beats up Nightwing on a regular basis.

I agree with DL, Ollie is a good MA not a great one, in pure hand to hand he wouldn't be that high. Also with Red Hood, who is pretty much a less skilled more brutal Nightwing.

Actually I was going to be GA on the bottom he seems to be a brawler but people on this forum say there are different verion,s and one was very skill anyway im a bit confused now. Im pretty sure Red Hood is not less skilled. Red Hood owned Nightwing as Robin.

What about Cyclops, I mean he did beat six man once with his eye's closed?

If we're talking skill wise, i dont think Deathstroke is more skilled than Cap, DD, Bats, Fist (first tier ppl).

Black Panther, Deadpool, Red Hood should all be 2nd tier imo. They just arent as skilled as the rest of the people there.

Id also put Fury in the top tier.

Deathstroke is definitely second tier. He beats the shit out of people because he's enhanced like crazy, but his actual SKILL is a notch below the likes of Batman and Captain America.

Black Panther, Deadpool, and Deathstroke, should all be second tier. There is NO WAY the Punisher should be top tier.

Nick Fury should be in the top.

good thread, Alf

Deadpool is definitely a top tier, just because he abuses his healing power doesn't mean he isn't a very skilled martial artist. He went toe to toe with Killmonger, who beat T'challa, without relying on his healing factor.

Green Arrow shouldn't be moved, since 'One year later' he's become a beast. He's just as well trained as Deathstroke now, if not better. He's mastered the 'good' and the 'bad' techniques.

Azrael is a very skilled fighter, and he doesn't rely only on his brute strength, his strength wasn't even that amazing until the last 20 issues or so of his series (Out of 100) Keep him where he is but remove the disclaimer.

gorgon is not above top tier..........

Jason is Nightwings superior.

Cable should be in top-tier

Add Psylocke to the second tier list. Could possibly be low first tier if she used her telepathy to predict her opponents moves.

Black panther is top tier.

Intead of just saying hes not, why dont you prove it, I believe I have, in the past, provided enought proof to show that he is.

Strange.

why is black panther consider a top tier martial artist again?
