Stop picturing Slade as a buster. If i did that then CA wins a large majority against him.

Cap uses the shield up close and personal to block all the time, and he's used it to block attacks from people as fast or faster than Deathstroke. Not sure what feats you're basing that out of.
It sucks...how? Any instances come to mind to justify that claim?
He's not a buster by any means, but it would help to be familiar with Cap's feats as well as Slade's.
