Nah, not at all. I say 8/10. Gambit can win two against him.

Green Arrow, Black Canary, Hawkman, Nightwing, and Cassandra are fast and skilled too. But even in numbers all of that skill still wasn't enough. JLA got lucky. But they went down hard before ganging on Slade. Batman is far more skilled than Gambit and he couldn't out fight Slade neither or get past his physical advantages. I don't see Gambit pulling it off. Deathstroke is his better.

Gambit has superhuman agility .....he's faster than all of them.

Why would he get the first shot? And even if he did.....Gambit has been shown to throw a card at least fifty feet per second......at LEAST. On top of that.....there are more ways for Gambit to defeat Slade than there are for Slade to defeat Gambit.

Why wouldn't he? He's got superior reflexes to Gambit.

Fifty feet per second is cute compared to the velocity of an energy weapon.

Name them.

Deathstroke is defined as having nearly superhuman reflexes, while Gambit is blatantly superhuman.

I've seen Gambit deflect multiple energy blasts with his staff, while Deathstroke has struggled to deflect one.

You're mistaking Slades ability to be several steps ahead of his opponent with pure speed.

And in this fight Slade will have to deal with fairly wide area explosions.....it's not something he can dodge easily, if at all.

Wrong. Slade has been identified and shown to possess superhuman reflexes and speed many times.

Why should it even matter? If he can tangle with Starfire and her starbolts he can beat Gambit and his little cards.

He doesn't have to dodge anything if he snipes Gambit's head off when the bell rings.

But Slade is faster than Gambit by a lot.

Wrong, Slade is a mata human. You need to read his comics and not just what you read in a bio or handbook. Look at his respect thread if you can't find the comics or won't buy them.

Your wrong to thinks Slade isn't faster. He use quickness to out maneuver Superman himself for a lttle bit. But Slade's best speed feat is flipping through industrial air-duct fan blades. Thats something I don't see Gambit pulling off. Because the window between each fan blade is very, very small to jump in-between them. Slade did this while dodging gun fire from behind.

Plus Slade's mind works faster leading to why he will out react Gambit.

Slade can leap 60 feet outwards. Explosives will not be hard to dodge from. But if he gets caught, it wouldn't be a big problem. Slade has survived explosions from several grenades at point blank range (with old weaker armor). Slade' damage soak is much higher.

And for the record, Slade has more ways to defeat him. Not the other way around. Slade is more trained and experienced out of the two. Plus far better weaponry and equipment will help.

Those "little cards" have delivered a blow that has taken out Gladiator.

And Sniping gambit would require prep.....this is a non prep battle. Gambit wears armor on top of that.

Nah. Gambits powers are more versatile than you give them credit for. And as far as reading up on Slade goes.....I'm one of his biggest supporters, I know the character, eff bios.

I guarantee I have more Deathstroke scans on my hard drive than you do.

Gambit is a bullet timer

Gambit can basically kill slade with a touch now depending on where he sends the charge in slade's body

Gambit also has the superior range because even if Slade can dodge a few charged cards hes not dodging the blast they create.

Slade isn't winning any fights against current Gambit

Wow... "A blow that has taken out Gladiator". You couldn't be more wrong.

I don't care how many scans you have. I've read over 100 Slade appearances and counting. I know Slade' origin, how he got his powers and what he can do with them. So don't come to me with your scans and think you know more. I have a lot of his comics and read them. You need to read more before entering a debate with me.

Versatility? Where? Gambit can make objects explode. That looks like a one trick pony to me. Slade has guns, explosives, bladed weapons and a power-staff. That's versatility for ya.

Slade is physically superior in every way and far more skilled in combat. He out reacts multiple opponents at once. Explosives are not enough. Slade has a HF. Gambit can't out think Slade. Slade's smarter with a enhanced, fast working mind. The x factors favor Slade here. Gambit isn't taking Slade for no majority.

You're not even the authority on Deathstroke on this board. So don't go around toting that title like you are.

And as far as versatility goes, how about controlling kinetic energy for a variety of effects:

Charging objects with kinetic energy until they explode regardless of size (I'm talking from playing cards to automobiles)

Increasing kinetic energy for energy enhanced blows like leveling a house with your bo staff

Having a hypnotic charm over your opponents due to this static kinetic energy

Blocking telepaths with kinetic static energy

Using kinetic energy to increase your agility to superhuman levels...etc....

My talk can be backed up. And no amount of bull from you will magically make my issues disappear. I know Slade very well there is nothing no one here can tell me about what he can do I don't already know myself.

Comics are no different from DBZ episodes you see on TV. If you seen most of the episodes/issues on the character, what is there left for someone to tell? Nothing.

All of those abilities are nothing for Slade to deal with.

I'll break it down like this. Gambit best chance is of course his powers. My counter against this is Slade' HF/damage soak and body armor.

Here Slade survived a direct explosion from a hand grenade.

Here Slade takes multiple shot to his chest from automatic gunfire.

Note: this armor is a older, weaker version.

Speed, agility and reaction time is also greater.

good thing Gambit is throwing more then one card if Slade's armor can barely protect him against one explosion.

Just a question... when did Gambit get over his voluntary lobotomy by Mr. Sinister to limit the size of his explosions
