Ronan/Superskrull vs Gladiator

Who wins

Duo

Gladiator

Gladiator

Glads has the huge advantage in speed and strength. The team is more versatile. Unless Glads can one-shot them- which I don't see happening, the team should take it with their varied power-sets.

Gladiator.

Duo.

These 2 don't get enough respect arround here.

They get what they deserve. Just remember that a female Strontian nearly killed Ravenous and a Nova officer, and she did it with very little effort. Ravenous in my opinion was slightly superior to Ronan in their little squirmish during the Annihilation wave. This may seem like ABC logic to some, but I don't see how these guys could beat Gladiator, he just seems to be on another level than these guys.

There is context to that. IIRC Ravenous did not have the Cosmic Currs that Annihilus endowned him with when the strontian crushed him. Ravenous with 2 Currs took it to pre-upgrade SS and when Klrt and Ronan defeated him, he had 5 dogs with him initially (Klrt went throught them and Ronan dealt the deathblow to a weakened Ravenous).

Standard Nova centurions are fodder.

This duo should get more screentime.

Then again Ronan was put in a body cast because a few tons of cement fell on him. I question his overall durability, and this is something that he would need if he went up against Gladiator.

They still have their force-fields

Gladiator wins.

Why dont you just pick a low showing as proof, oh wait...

Using logic like yours...Ronan has a win over BlackBolt, Gladiator struggled and neede help against BB, so does tha mean The Duo take it then?

Does that also mean that Ronan used his universal weapon to take the brunt of BB's attack? Gladiator does not need to rely on energy based attacks to defeat Ronan, not when one well placed punch will suffice. Anything else? Besides against these two, Gladiator has the overall field advantage in any given setting, he's much faster, stronger, and more durable than either of them alone, and perhaps collectively.

Has Gladiator got any feats of fighting invisible characters? Fighting someone he cant see will definitely throw gladiator's confidence IMO.

Gladiator has infra vision. Gladiator is so much faster than his opponents in this case, that he could scoop Ronan up, beat him into a KO'd state, drop him, and make it a one on one. Gladiator also has extremly good hearing, and he may not need to see his foe to lock onto him. What of Gladiator's ability to duplicate Superman level feats, like tornado force winds? He could literally spin at hypersonic speed, while emitting a high yield laser defense.

with CIS on he wont be resorting to laser tornadoes which these two can easily counter anyway.

He may be faster, but unless he blitzes them right off the bat, which isn't all that usual for him, they can raise their force-fields in time to put up a fight and I believe, win it.

As in infrared? Sue bends that type of light to be invisible too, so should SS.

With CIS on Super Skrull's track record is about as solid as the Rhino's. CIS would also mean that Gladiator would fly in as fast as he could and take the slowest out first, this is what he did to Wonder Man in Operation Galactic Storm. Gladiator unlike Superman does blitzkrieg his opponents on a regular basis.

Well unless they fought in space he could also hear Super Skrull no?
