Jumping in front of a bullet isnt nearly as impressive tbh and ive see that feat. Elektra is actually the only one who has comparable to TM feats. Once he copies someone's fighting style he cant be cought off guard and can read this opponent knowing his every move, he doesnt simply "copy" attacks, he learns enitre fighting styles by watching people fight. He can fight like DD with his eyes closed, like Cap etc. How can you give Bullseye the win over him when TM got fighting skills of both DD and Cap?

He may have as good of aim with weapons such as guns or knives but he doesn't have bullseye's ability to turn normal items into weapons which i believe wins him the fight.

Tasky has killed a man by throwing two pens at him.

I don't give him the win because of fighting skills i give it to him because he turn turn normal objects into weapons.Jumping infront of a bullet that has already been fired isn't nearly as impressive? i Disagree. Just because he can fight like cap doesn't mean he can beat DD because he isn't caps physical peer.So all of a sudden someone can't change there own fighting style to accommodate?

that is impressive but i was talking about things such as a toothpick or his own tooth for instance.A pen is still alot more like a weapon then these very commonc items.

He may not be Caps physical peer but he's easilly DD's physical peer plus has fighting skills of them both. I dont see Bullseye matching him h2h as for his projectiles, TM got Spider-man's agility (he duplicated it) he can easilly dodge those. If he can hold his own against armed Bucky and Cap at the same time with ease and do so well I dont see a reason why he cant beat one of them. Notice how he only got hit when he looked away, that's because he could predict all Cap's moves.

How does he have SM's agility he would have to be superhuman to have SM's agility and it makes no sense according to what his power is.Where do you keep getting this "Held his own" crap it wasn't even a real fight The only one on the offensive Was TM it only lasted all of 1 1/2 pages after cap gut shotted him he went to find Osbourne Rogers wasn't even looking for that fight if anything he was distracted in it.He isn't Mr.x he doesn't predict moves Cap knows every fighting style on earth and your telling me from watching him somewhere TM immediately knows everything Cap knows BS.

Taskmaster's first appearance had him predicting Cap's moves and trouncing him whilst fighting Iron Man at the same time.

So comics show that he can predict Cap's moves.

Yes he can if cap sticks to 1 style but if he were to mix a variety of styles he should be unpredictable or if he were to use that alien style he has.

Except Taskmaster has worked out how Cap fights using Cap's whole repatoire. This cna be seen in the way that he broke down Cap's unique style (utilising the number of MA's Cap knows) into a bunch of kata's so he could teach USAgent how to fight like Cap.

That's the whole point of changing his style so he in not predictable. And Iron fist described Caps style as being basic but brutal so it shouldn't be hard to change.😕

"How does he have SM's agility he would have to be superhuman to have SM's agility and it makes no sense according to what his power is.Where do you keep getting this "Held his own" crap it wasn't even a real fight The only one on the offensive Was TM it only lasted all of 1 1/2 pages after cap gut shotted him he went to find Osbourne Rogers wasn't even looking for that fight if anything he was distracted in it.He isn't Mr.x he doesn't predict moves Cap knows every fighting style on earth and your telling me from watching him somewhere TM immediately knows everything Cap knows BS."

Except changing style never helped or Cap would've figured that out years ago, TM still predicts his every move. He's done the same thing with Spider-man, Deadpool and others. And he does have Spider-man's agility, he copied it. It has been mentioned several times on panel and used by TM in various situations. How was it not a real fight? They fought, Bucky tried to shoot Taskmaster while he was fighting Steve, TM punched Steve in the face, blocked the bullets and disarmed Bucky and later punched Bucky in the face even though Bucky attacked him from behind. Sounds like "holding his own" to me.

Apparently Cap didn't think changing style was necessary seeing as he didn't even know who TM was.To have spider-man level agility he would have to have reflexes/speed 5-10 times that of a human last time i checked he didn't only thing i saw that even resembles what you were talking about was his short bursts of superspeed.No TM tried to jump steve then bucky fired at him he blocked then came at steve with the sword while simultaneously blocking bullets from bucky then went on the offensive throwing the sword then got kneed in the stomach then steve walked away that doesn't sound like much of a fight to me.

He faced TM many times and knew exactly who he was, he was simply messing with him when he said "I dont know who you are" Noth that changing style ever helped anyone else.
We both know comicbook "humans" can perform almost superhuman feats and Taskmaster has succesfuly copyed Spider-man agility, Spider-man himself confirmed that. TM was even capable of duplicating other MA attacks but with greater speed after watching them in fastforward mode on tape. The guy is fast enough to easilly dodge anything Bullseye throws at him. So Bullseye loses the only advantage he has in the fight. TM has him beat in pretty much everything else. Daken, Spider-man, BP (with right equipment) and maybe IF are the only people on the list that I see take majority over TM.

In the Initiative tie-in he told Bucky what Tasky can do.

Okay. Second Scenario for those of you who think Taskmaster can't beat the gauntlet. This should even the fights a little more.

Second Scenario:

Taskmaster Gauntlet

Taskmaster has standard gear, and weapons: sword, shield, arrows, and cane. Can he make it through the gauntlet? If not where does he stop, and why? After each fight he is completely rejuvenated, and all of his gear, and weapons are replaced. All foes have standard gear, and neither Taskmaster, or his enemies are prepped for the fight. Fight takes place in an abandoned town, so no one has to worry about casualties. Taskmaster also gets to keep the weapons of his fallen foes as he progresses through the gauntlet.

1. Bullseye
2. Punisher
3. Moon Knight
4. Batman
5. Daredevil
6. Black Panther (Costume, and Black Knight Sword)
7. Captain America (Bucky)
8. Captain America (Rogers)
9. Spider-man
10. Deathstroke
11. Daken
12. Iron Fist

Oops, and I meant to revise the gauntlet order.

New Order:

1. Bullseye
2. Punisher
3. Moon Knight
4. Batman
5. Daredevil
6. Captain America (Bucky)
7. Captain America (Rogers)
8. Black Panther (Costume, and Ebony Blade)
9. Spider-man
10. Deathstroke
11. Daken
12. Iron Fist

Doesn't Moon Knight have a carbonadium suite?

Stops at Bullseye. Why? Two words: starting distance 😛

Yep. It's quite impressive.

Taskmaster has Bullseye's skills, and can predict what he can do. Plus he has a shield, and limited bullet time skills. He would destroy Bullseye. Whatever Bullseye can do with that starting distance Taskmaster could do with the same precision, and accuracy...plus he has the advantage of knowing all of Bullseye's moves.
