Dark Overlord of KMC
yeah, it all really comes down to equating Loki to depowered Thor; Thor was taken out by a car, by a taser and by ShIELD henchmen (eventually) and although Loki has a good showing against Dark Elf fodder he gets pummelled whenever he tries to engage Thor in any sort of hand to hand combat scenario. So if Thor > Loki with powers it stands to reason that Thor > Loki without powers as well, meaning Loki is even more susceptible to the things that caused Thor trouble on Earth. Baleman on the other hand has shown to be an expert combatant in his films and would dummy Loki if he was stripped of his powers.
P.S. had a brain fart there, forgot we were talking about Nolans Gotham here but Loki would have to go thru Bane to take over Gotham and I don't see that happening without any powers. Plus id imagine he'd be susceptible to Scarecrows fear toxin and Joker has shown that given circumstances in his favour he can be a decent spaz attacker.
