Barry may say what he want but until he shows the feats to back it up then he still sucks at fighting... in which case Slade wins.

It wasn't an accident. He was getting annoyed at Eddie telling him to punch harder so he put a little oomph behind a blow and he punched a hole in the sandbag. There is no reason to believe he couldn't casually replicate that at any time, not to mention that is hardly the best striking feat he can do. I only used it as an example of what Barry could easily do without arousing suspicion of him being superhuman. Him actually trying would probably punch through the bag and hit Eddie. And I wasn't saying that all of his blows are that powerful, just that if he wasn't saddled with PIS several of the combinations he landed in the Green Arrow confrontation should have ended the fight.

And even if he did still suck at fighting, if he was actually taking this seriously like he did against Reverse Flash, it would be like fighting a statue. Skill isn't necessary when you can read a newspaper column in the time it takes your enemy to reach for his sword.

Lol at flash not being able to replicate a punch..

Frost why do you say stuff like that?

Sounds like DC needs to look at Quicksilver to see how a speedster should be written.

That's not even apples to oranges you're comparing apples to rocks or some shit.

Clark and Flash Smallville have the best speedster feats of all movies and shows.

Nothing tops their speed or feats shown.

Because he only punched like that once and he had to be mentally/emotionally triggered before he could make the punch.

Because if it was that easy to replicate that specific punch, why doesn't he do it all the time.

Besides, anyone who's done martial arts before will tell you that the first time they do a hard move/maneuver, it takes multiple practices before they can actually use that move in actual combat.

So what you are saying is if you learn to punch a certain way you can never repeat that again because of instant amnesia post punch?
