Super Power Beat Down coming up: Maul vs Spiderman

Who will take it. Darth Maul, the Lord of the Sith or your friendly neighborhood spiderman?

Bane will probably bite the dust

Maul should win, Spider-Man will probably be given the verdict. But it's SPBD so who gives a shit lol.

Spider-man.

Spoderman

Prolly Thanos.

Oooh not sure tbh. Leaning towards Maul.

I'd go with Spider-man. He can stay at range, move enough to avoid a lot of force attacks, and webbing isn't something that can be entirely blocked with the saber. Overwhelm him with enough webbing to stop the saber, then punch him out should work.

Maul has counters to all this Imo.

Will be hard for Spider-Man to keep his range when Maul can leap as far and as fast as he can.

Considering Wolverine always cuts through Spidey's webbs, I'm not sure Maul's Saber wound have much trouble. Especially moving as fast as he does.

Durability? Maul can take those punches seeing as he can even survive being cut in 2.

But Maul's main advantage is, he only needs to land 1 Saber hit and he's won.

Still I think this is a fight that can go either way.

Spider-Man can lift a dozen tons… Assuming he isn’t holding back, one punch is going to lay Maul out.

Beyond that Spidey is faster, far more agile, and his Spider-sense is just as good, if not better, than Maul’s precog.

Maul’s only real chance is force powers. But Maul tends to prefer close combat. Furthermore, smart use of his webs should allow Spidey to escape Maul’s grip.

While I don't care much for it, you know the fight is gonna be really off the wall with little to no research done on the characters. Though I see this mostly for SW related characters.

Comics vs Star Wars tends to not end well for the latter. 🙂

Mostly cause lack of knowledge on the latter. Actually probably the biggest reason I can think of.

Nah. Comics are just ridiculously more powerful beyond comprehension.

Well that too yeah, but lack of knowledge is also because they don't know who to put who against. You can make Comics vs SW fights, but most don't have much knowledge on SW to actually make balanced ones. Because at best, your general SW fan has seen the movies and cartoons, nothing else.

Exactly. Comic characters tend to just operate on a different level. It’s not exactly mind blowing to see even someone like Batman a mere “human” defeat a hundred thugs in a fight.

Implying that SW characters can't or haven't done that? I know you're just using an example, but still.

Nor is it mind blowing to see Spider-Man defeat a herald of galactus. 🙂

Nah. That one is pretty ridiculous...

Sure, but in SW that tends to be a higher tier character and the feat is usually used to wank said character.
