He never said he wasn't wearing kevlar, he may have alluded to it, but based on the fact that he doesn't have a single feat in his entire career that would support such a statement I am more than comfortable ruling it as a bluff.

Absolutely I don't think grey impact markers indicate that somebody wasn't hit, that makes me a hypocrite.

The context in which he said clearly indicated he was. Remember when he said " You think I'm wearing fake fangs", what did that imply srank?

Originally posted by jinzingo back to the thread, srank stated he didn't believe that it was one of Blade's abilties
Srank claimed that Blade's never proven to have an accelerated healing factor on specific levels....And he was right. The "healing factor" feats of Blade leave a lot to be desired.
Now I don't see how either performed better... they both look like mutton by the end of their respective encounters...
and Blade actually managed to damage Negus, however briefly.

not to mention he was taken down by shield wearing the same thing pretty much and they stated he was wearing Kevlar
Showings are 100% consistent.

No what makes you a hypocrite is your constant whining that I back up srank and jinzin when you are constantly doing the same thing with Tracks and snoop. But unlike you I not a little ***** who whines about it.
Correct it doesn't mean that srank talks nonsense. Grey impact markers indicating a non-hit is logical.

That is an example of durability or pain threshold not healing. Streets get shot all the time and continue fighting, Punisher's done it, Kingpins done it, Batman's done it, Caps done it. Fighting through a bullet wound isn't a healing feat.
He said he was a match for Wolverine... right after he got effortlessly stomped into the ground.

I said Blade has never demonstrated a healing factor on panel (which he hasn't), and that a poem of narrative hyperbole can't be taken as a literal account of events (which it can't).When they vamped out in that book the structure of the face changed dramatically. Not merely point by huge bat like ears, upturned stub nose and a pronounced brow. Having pointier teeth and point ears isn't the same thing, as much as you'd love to fool your self into believing it is.
you argued it wasn't one of his abilities after being given proof to the contrary which is why you were warned for trolling and you're confusing hyperbole with metaphor.
the nose isn't upturned, negus's whole head is turned upward, that's angle.
his jaw even elongates and we have the fact that in the context of the story your theory makes absolutely no sense.

again, opinion, not supported by the writer or people on marvel, Blade produced a means with which to kill Wolverine that he needed to get close in order to use. We've seen in the recent-x-men comic that it would indeed work on wolverine and in fact, Wolverine would've fallen in agony as his healing factor tried to fight the vampirism, which would've made it easy for Blade to stake him.

I dont think any of those guys have been shot in the leg with machine gun bullets and carry on fighting like nothing had happened.

thats your delusional, not what actaully would happen. Logan could have killed him at any point, only reason Blade even survived is becuase wolverine does not kill hero's.
way you can even chalk that up to a stalemate is absurd let a lone a win for blade.

Feel free to prove me wrong and most a clear example of happening.

I've said Blade has never displayed a healing factor on panel, and he hasn't.
A metaphor is a comparison, a hyperbole is an exaggeration. Saying Blade slows time is a hyperbole. Tank an English lit class. Poetic hyperbole isn't a literal translation, it can't be taken at face value. If it could the Bloody Nine would be a freaking god.
