Duncan McCloud (Highlander) vs Blade

True, and that's certainly impressive, but Duncan has defeated Kronos and Caspian who were also 5,000 years old.

Yeah, i know but i assumed that Duncan was bound to the same decree that a highlander dies after decapitation, regardless of how it happens.

That's right. In "The Hunters" Fitz was horrified that if the Hunters (a mortal group) beheaded him then no Immortal would get his Quickening. If the neck is severed the Immortal dies regardless of how it happened.

You make a good point about Blade being slowed from blood loss but i really don't think Blade would sustain any major injuries. He is just far to fast and agile. I've only seen a few episodes of the Highlander show but from my combined knowledge of the Highlander universe i'm not aware of any Highlander facing a foe as deadly as Blade. I'm also not sure how Duncan would react to Blades incredible Strength. Blade would knock Duncan around like a rag doll.

Duncan fought the Guardian who had super-human strength so he's not helpless against such an enemy. I agree that Blade definately has the upper hand there though.

true about blade being fast and strong. no one's saying he aint but Duncan aint normal either. accelerated healing factor, stronger and 400 year fighting experience of multiple swords styles advantage over blade's ass.
as for Duncan being slow, well you can't compare movie effects to series effects....that too a series that was in the 90's. i could say blade wasn't as fast in the blade tv series either.

but you're right, duncan's certainly heading in this fight as the underdog. i'm just saying that it won't be first time and probably won't be the last. duncan's a shrewd guy and has shown amazing adaptibility.

Precisely.

My money's still on the Highlander.

Blade doesnt even need his sword. He beats Highlander to death with his huge black penis.

Duncan destroys him.
And a pox on anyone who says the ANIME is better than the TV series. I mean...that's just insulting. The Series is the best part of the entire franchise.

Blade has every physical advantage over Duncan.

The Series is the best part of the entire franchise.

Blade.

That anime Movie was good and even better how Kawajiri stuck to the whole Highlander mythology besides its alot better then some of the Highlander movie sequals.

That's not really saying much.

The film when they fight together (endgame) states pretty clearly that Connor was more powerful than Duncan and that He sacrificed himself to Duncan so Duncan could get the power of all Connor's kills. (which were far more than Duncan's)

Really? I was pissed when I saw that movie because I was fond of Connor's character, Duncan was lame IMO. When I saw the movie (a LONG time ago) I was under the impression that it was implied that Duncan was the better swordsman, and Connor sacrificed himself knowing Duncan would fare better against the antagonist. I should watch the POS again someday.

In regards to the topic, would Blade even know how to kill Duncan? I mean Blade would probably just assume Duncan was a mere human, this would be a great advantage to Duncan.

Blade is not an idiot, he'd figure out Duncan was something more than human in no time.

I dunno how much this would help but... If Ducan wanted, he could play dead (once Blade maimed him) and take Blade by surprise.

Duncan has pretty much every advantage. Blade has no chance.

He is physically inferior in every way, how does he have every advantage?

Did anyone yet establish whether or not this is incapacitation or to the death? cuz even blade can't completely kill him. Only another "immortal" can.
