Agent Barton (The Avengers) vs Legolas (LotR)

Arrow duel to the death in Times Square. No trick/explosive arrows, just the regular sharp pointy kind.

This is becoming a joke now...how many of these avenger threads do we need!?!

But Legolas

Honestly after the shooting display Barton did on the roof I would give him accuracy, but I might give shooting speed to Legolas

Barton showed some skill, he's got nothing on Legolas...plus Legolas is suuuuuch a dream boat

too bad we can't use comic feats, this would be so much rape.

He was hitting speeding flying motorcycles with pinpoint accuracy.

He did a no look shot on one to.

He was about to hit Loki square in the eye before Loki grabbed it out of the air.

I didn't see Legolas do shots with those kinds of speeding objects involved and shooting them without even looking.

been a while since i've seen the lord of the rings films.. can someone lists legolas's feats

Here are some:

Yeah, Clint definitely has aim and accuracy.

Those speeding motorcycle thingd were moving slow as hell, thougj. I'd argue slower than a car.

The alidn force was the most underwhelming part of the movie. Those guys were weak as hell.

Clint's best feat in The Avengers (shooting into the air on the SHIELD craft) is far better than anything Elf dude pulled off.

LOTR elves are immortal. Legolas wins, although I'm really pumped from the movie and want Clint to win.

I'm pretty sure that means they don't age (they actually do, but very slowly), not that they can't die.

Checked the Wikia, and you're right. My bad. They do recover from injury faster than humans do, so Legolas still wins since he can't be put down for a 10 count if they are using just regular arrows.

10 count? how about an arrow to the face? 😐

True. Adjusting for Windage and Drop at such a height with an arrow is madness.

Barton wins this fight.

Just being accurate isn't going to win the fight IMO. They are both good enough to hit each other, but being able to evade and maneuver is a big factor as well which goes to Legolas.

Just look at Hawkeye vs Loki, even though he was dead on target, Loki was fast enough to catch the arrow. Similarly I can see Legolas being fast enough to take cover. The fight is definitely going to be more than just who is more accurate. Agility, combat skills and awareness will make a difference. Legolas also has the short range advantage, and a much quicker rate of fire.

If the characters start off knowing their opponent's level of skill, then Legolas would have the advantage, he would know to be extremely cautious and that he needs to close the gap.

It's an arrow duel to the death though. No Kung Fu, no swords. Legolas would have a great chance of winning if he closed the gap and took Barton down with other weapons but Barton is just as gimped without trick arrows.

Who do you think would win if Legolas and Barton fought hand to hand/bows and arrows in hand?

When I mean close up, I meant still fighting with arrows.

Close-up bow/arrow fight, I would have to say Legolas, since he has actually fought close up using arrows as melee weapons. Also at close range, extreme accuracy isn't going to matter, agility and rate of fire would be more important.

Unarmed fight, probably Hawkeye for the same reason, we've never seen Legolas fight unarmed, while Hawkeye has shown some skill against Black Widow.

Barton did fight close range against the Chitauri both launhing arrows and using them as melee weapons though.
