does his brain operate like chows? does he see equations or simply subconsciously plans and strategizes like all competent fighters but unlike him they dont use brain augmentation to use common sense in battle?
Originally posted by Wild ShadowIt helps him enough to beat them though. I don't remember him having problems with Canary unless it was recently maybe shes a little better in h2h now and he was several leagues below her in past.
clearly it doesnt help him or put him over the top with elite fighters like NW or david cain i heard canary also gave him problems..
Originally posted by Daredevil1IDK who told you he wasn't, but slade is indeed a meta.
Slade isn't superhuman. DC stance seems to be "almost superhuman".Slade has been coined a man with the strength of 10 men kind of like Cap was in the old Invader series.
Slades stats are being overrated in this thread but not as much as Elektra stats are being grosly overrated in this thread. Stat wise Slade are better but its Elektra skill that will give Slade problems for sure.
Characters like Daredevil, Shiva, Batgirl, Batman, Shang Chi, and Elektra do worldly things that look superhuman on paper but are just top humans in there verse and that's whats being confused IMHO.

He took out canary and green arrow easily......only prepping to keep her sonics out of the situation, then soundly whooping them both. and canary is indeed an elite level fighter.
I've seen him purposely take a barrage of NW's blows then put him down iin one move. That and NW admits himself that DS could kill him without breaking a sweat.
even Cassie admits he's faster and knows if he wants to he can easiily put her down.
he beat the shit outta of roy harper in h2h in outsiders and he is also a great fighter. he also purposely tooks blows to get him in a position for defeat.
slade>all those guys easily

if this was the rating system slade would barely reach 0.1 on the superhuman scale..Batman = Slade
0.1.. -0.0+ 0.1
Originally posted by Daredevil1his strength is superhuman.
Meta with a strength that isn't superhuman. There are lots of meta's without true superhuman strength. Read Slade DC file they say and book story which clearly state "almost superhuman".
idk where you're getting this from, but I've seen him referenced as meta a million times, but not "almost superhuman"

In Birds, she poked out his good eye, but she wasn't alone, she had Huntress to help with a distraction.
Even blind, he acted pretty confident that he'd win.

DS was effortlessly whooping on BC, Huntress, Creote, and Lady Blackhawk.......BC did puncture his eye though, after he snapped her arm and huntress stabbed him.
in the end I think Savant saved them. good comic

Yea, Savant shot him in the back in the end.
I'll note Canary had her arm get snapped as part of a plan, since she knew it was the only way she'd get close enough to do the eye thing. I think she was planning to go for the Cry next now that he was blind and she might have room to pull it off, but Zinda got too close... then bam, Savant.

'almost superhuman'?
So Cap has jumped up a building and he isn't labeled true superhuman and a high tree about 50 ft.
Heck Cap strength feats are overall better then Slades and he isn't labeled super human.
'almost superhuman' is what is in his origin story in Slades own run. His DC file only list superhuman stamina and cordination.....not strength.

I don't. Batman is peak in the sense of a man in his prime like Daredevil. There peak human but that is not the same when you know the definition of Cap's peak as in the peak of human potential. That supposedly made him the next step in human evolution.
As Batman and Daredevil are close to peak human(since there not at the true peak of human potential like Cap.) Cap and Slade are close to Superhuman. Cap/Slade are in between Human and Superhuman. That's why there feats look incredible at times in gray areas compared to others.
