Im not discounting his feats digi, the are admirable. I dont completely agree with them because they seem out of character (armor really?) but the are his feats. I also didnt see it in the op where it says Steve doesnt get trained...it just states that their powers are swapped...not the means by which they became who they are.
Combat wise straight-up Cap. Spider-powers with better strategic thinking.
he'll make up somehow for the lost webbing, tracers, etc with good ole fashion guns. Ultimately will suffer hampered mobility though.
Combatwise in the long run and overall though, Peter. Guy invented Parker Particles (the thing the gave Alpha his powers), so no contest really.

Couple posts down, he clarified. No worries for not having seen it. I don't think it changes the outcome of the thread though. Pete knows kung-fu now, so the skill gap is smaller than ever. Even if Cap were as skilled as he is now, he's minus webs and various other gadgets.
It's completely in character for Pete. Have you read much of his recent stuff? Mostly, he had a lot more time freed up to invent because he got a job as a science geek, not as a teacher or photographer.
Though, he's been inventing spot-solutions to problems for years, just not with as much regularity. It's not any different than what he's done in the past, it's just at a faster tempo.

The main thing for me is who would have made Better use of the powers they got...
Spider-Man is essentially the same. A scientist but with less durability, speed, strength.... Arguably Spider-Man is smart enough to pull a Tony stark... But given his past he has used his intelligence over the years...
If anything Spider-Man pulls off all the same feats he already has... But to less effect...
Steve however increases his damage, speed, strength etc... There are issues where Steve learned martial arts easily by studying alien forms... He isn't an idiot...

Some, not much. I was " parkered" out this summer with all the teams he's been on and this tech phase he's going thru...I'm sure its impressive though
In these recent arcs it was implied that he was never a big-time inventor not because he didn't haev the brain power, but because his life pulled him in too many other directions. Based on recent tech showings, what he's done with relatively little time as a "free" inventor, there's a damn good case to be made that the most powerful Peter Parker might be the one who never got spider powers in the first place, and could focus solely on science.
Of course Cap will be physically superior because of the new body. But he loses the "who does better" battle in SO many other ways. Peter would do better because, frankly, he's a better hero. Smarter, more clever and ingenious. Unless this is an "inspire-off" Cap has nothing to hang his hat on, and would quickly die in one of the hundreds of situations where Spidey's web-shooters saved his and others' lives.
I would say pete would turn out to be more or less like batman. Just not as serious or grumpy. Since pete would not be able to rely on his spider sense as much he would be possibly more serious since he doesn't have a early detection aka spider-sense. I wouldn't be surprised if he used armor suit most of the time since it's well within his abilities to make one.
Rogers if he gained spiderman's powers instead of the sss at the time he would be amazing. Granted he would learn things as fast but he would work-out/train a crap ton like he usually does. IMO pete never really did much physical training besides practicing a tiny bit of kung fu and some danger room like workouts. Rogers imo would push his physical stats beyond what spider man can currently do.
This is the part i don't understand would they be fighting their own respective rogue gallery or would they be fighting each other's rogue gallery?
