Taskmaster vs Wolverine (swordfight)
Logan (no adamantium) is not allowed to use his claws and his HF is OFF. He gets a week to get used to not having to rely on his HF.
Taskmaster (no armor) is not allowed to use any other weapons.
Its a swordfight ONLY.
scenario 1: fight to the death.
scenario 2: both swords are poisoned so even a teeniest scratch is fatal.
i will give it to wolverine, the problem is people are forgeting how deadly wolverine really is.. most of his fights you see him get hurt because he doesnt care he knows he got a healing factor but notice when he lose his healing factor look at his fights... when he lost his healing factor and fought against lady deathstrike and omega red at once and was beating on them until they overpowered him but he did great, when wolverine really want to show his skills he is insanely deadly and skilled, owning shang chi, beating mister x without any trouble once the mind reading didnt work on him, and look at wolverine in manifest destiny he is a total beast when it comes to hand2hand fights .... if we use wolverine by his highest showings and look at his best feats he can take out taskmaster without the sword thats my opinion
Originally posted by Wild Shadowit was revealed in origins he lost some of his skill though, silver samurai retrained him, that doesnt mean he's as good as he used to be though. If wolverine wins i would think it's because of his superior stats.
Wolverine has decades of sword training by guys like Ogun and various masters.. he has had blind sword training as well by some hag...Taskmaster doesnt stand a chance at his highest feats and no low balling. logan fights sword duals against masters every few yrs...
I think Tasky takes swordsman skills. He may be the best swordsman in Marvel. He has the full skill of these ppl. I think he may even have Nightcrawlers swordsman skills.
Thing IS, will he execute these peoples abilities to the fullest to secure his win? That will ALWAYS be the question when it involves Taskmaster. Against a non adamantium and non hf Wolvie, i think he may be able to pull it off for a majority.

Sword skills should be around the same ballpark..
Wolvie got the edge in strength/speed/agility/endurance
Tasky can get a few wins by using his "fast forward" speed burstsLogan for a majority.
Endurance & Strength I'll give you, but the speed/agility difference is negligible at worst.
Tasky has kept up with Spiderman, Cap, DareDevil, The Cat and others, and using the fast forward speed (after being shot through the side) caught a bullet & has deflected bullets.
Add to that the fact that he can predict a large number of the moves Logan is going to make, and Tasky should win this.

True but he was also unable to keep up with Elektra using her own style, she just moved faster than him.
Speed burts are good but it is also risky since it tires him and Wolvie got stamina on his side.

wolverine aint a master? tell me something do you read any wolverine comics aside the ones where he is part of the x-men team and thats why he gets beat up because he is a part of the team? i suggest you to read some good wolverine stories like manifest dastiny or enemy of state and get back to me with that one
wolverine is a real martial art master he is a great fighter and he is even better with weapons seing how most of his life he was trained as a samurai he is one of the best fighters marvel earth has to offer and in my book he takes the clean and clear win over taskmaster wolverine is too skilled and deadly and even without his healing factor its not like he cant take a cut or 2 he will murder tasky
didn't wolverine fight 5 greatest samurai masters in all japan's history in an after life Japanese myth dimension?
1. besides that he was trained by Ogun himself in the way of the "samurai" he even beat him silly with his bokkan sword when he lost his temper..
2. he has fought shingen in three duals 1st time he was poisoned, beaten near death before he faced him. although logan lost the 1st match he lasted a while in such a state. In the rematch healthy he killed shingen he took some damage but he traded a stab for a chance for a kill blow... 3rd time shingen was revived and logan ran through him stealing his sword and killing him without even noticing him.
3. he has fought lazear various times in dual matches with his claws or knifes and won repeatedly... he even fought lazear and the woman who stole his soul at the same time w/shogun present. he straight out unarmed lazear and took them down b4 making a deal for his soul.
4. he fights deadpool repeatedly in a sword to claw fight.. his claws may not be a sword but they are bladed wpns showing his response time and even fight skills...
5. he practices sword fighting off and on, on his own time. he retrained with an old woman in blind sword fighting b/c he felt he needed to retrain and hone his skills again. logan seeking training from ppl whether its from an old woman or silver samurai isnt a sign that he isnt as skilled or is not capable of fighting as well in sword fighting. he may need to regain his confidence and refresh his skills but by no means does it mean he isnt as skilled or superior as some one as taskmaster or Silver Samurai.
6. logan went on a inter-dimensional rescue mission while working for LL&L and used a bokkan sword to fight his way through and refused to kill... he was using decapitating techniques nerve and pressure points to defeat various superhuman beings. prior to that adventure he was living in the mountains training while on sabbatical in sword fighting under another sword master.
7. fighting Silver samurai on a regular basis
also i am sure he trained kitty in sword fighting and certain female x men...
i thing his knowledge ans skills seriously outclass taskmaster even if ppl just want to look at the comment he made to SS about needing to be retrained which i look at as just getting back into practice... nothing none of us havent done in some way in our life's when it comes to a hobby or skill......

Here he has even more time for training than he had in Origins.
Tasky uses swordplay from Black Knight and Harada, but he mixes his combat up by combining moves and switching styles and moves in an instant, so Logan isn't going to be able to beat him how he beat Harada...
And Taskmaster can predict many, many moves Logan is going to do, I mean, his ability to identify & anticipate moves is insanely good, his fight with Natasha Romonov proved that, where he identified her fighting style, countered her with ease then KO'd her.
I know Logan is a much, much harder fight than Natasha, but the fact Tasky has easily countered fighters like Cap, Daredevil etc shows that a lot of what Logan will do Tasky will be ready to counter.
