one batarang from the shadows one-shots him. bats has several in his belt, among all the other things.


Depends on how old Batroc is in this thread. In his more recent appearances Batroc's portrayed as an "old timer" and would go down pretty quick. But back in the day when his age wasn't shown to be much of an issue he took WAY too many punches from Cap for me to think that one Batarang would put him down.

depends on where the rang hits. don't forget--bats has the environment advantage and has the benefit of attacking first. if batroc doesn't see it coming and bats has time to line him up, i see no way batroc stays conscious after the assault. 😬

and PG--the gauntlet is NEVER in order of most dangerous.

then put deathstrike or hyde first then 😛

How does Bat's get the first attack from the shadows with time for perfect aim? Batroc goes in as soon as Jokers in trouble, so it seems like the most probable opening shot would be Batroc landing a kick from behind while Bruce stands over the Joker. The only way Bat's would have the advantage in the opening seconds would be if he one shotted Joker from the shadows, and I don't think I've ever seen him pull that one off.

😕

you don't think he could--given shadows and knowledge that the attack is coming--use one of the weapons in his belt to one-shot the joker?

i'll disagree with you there, goob. then he'd likely be able to replay the ko with batroc akin to what bullseye could do, or cap for that matter with his shield.

Not when the Joker's actively working to track him down too. Joker's not going to just stand there and wait for Batman to land something on him, he knows Bat's MO. I'd agree with you if it was almost any of his other rogues, but this is the Joker we're talking about. If Bat's stayed hidden to long Joker would start tossing grenades around at random or something.

bats is waiting for him to arrive. joker would have to start lobbing grenades the instant he arrived. bats would already be hidden WAITING for him, seeing him arrive. i don't see how he DOESN'T one-shot joker immediately. he one-shots the next couple as well, imo.

yah they won't really start adding up until around daredevil and later, and several of those go down to various gas bombs, flash grenades, etc, especially in an enclosed space.

Batmans unnatural ability to dissapear into shadows will also help him a lot these matchups.

I know statwise Lady Deathstrike is dangerous, but how is she in appearances against an opponent like Batman?

What Hyde are we talking about?

Batman's got a good shot at making it to the end of this thing. If he loses, it would likely be in these last few.

mr hyde is basically a far lesser version of the hulk (iirc a fifty toner +/-), but his intellect doesn't diminish.

yah, hyde's a cl50-75 bruiser, nothing too special. lady d has been taken out without TOO much trouble by cap at one point, but i can't recall if that was before she had her healing factor upgrade. last i knew, she had a great HF. bats would beat her h2h, but her healing would make a ko difficult. if there are others still standing when he reaches her, he could be in a lot of trouble.

Batman stops after Bane gets into the fight. IF he manages to get past/get the better off Bane, Widow or nightwing begin to wreck him when they come in.

^ what's your take on a fresh batman vs oyama yuriko 1 on 1?

Deathstrike?

She'd decimate him... She's quite skilled, faster, stronger, tireless, and has repair systems on par with Wolverine's healing factor.

Batman can't even make use of his usual arsenal when it comes to dealing with metas. Gas and flash grenades are just about completely useless. Fire won't do any good, and pressure points and strikes? Absolutley useless.

The only chance he has is using electro shocks.... and I don't even know if that would work or how effective it would be.

Ah see I missed the part about him waiting in the warehouse for them to walk through the door. I was thinking that Joker/Batman started out inside a warehouse. Him being able to wait for an ambush like that would definitely give him an advantage.

i wasn't sure about her HF but cap DID wreck her in a straight 1on1. not sure if you're basing this on just her new healing factor or what, but he is undoubtly more skilled. she also didn't seem faster than cap. again, that fight may have been before her upgraded HF though.

A pissed off determined Batman[as he is stated to be in the op] wrecks Bane, I've given evidence of this already in the thread. As well as Bruce being too much for Dick, so much to where Dick couldn't even land a single strike against him. Widow won't fare much better. Bruce makes quick work of the top several.

Her slightly increased stats don't mean much, Bruce invariably beats her featwise anyhow, how well does she actually perform?
Looking through respect threads for her, I just see Wolverine and Cap kicking her ass, really.
The only thing is that her healing factor might make her last long enough to survive till Hyde gets there.
