Lady Shiva 100
Mantis 100
Rounding off here.
If numbers match for characters i mean theyre in the same tier. I could break those particular characters down further, but this is good enough for thread purposes.
Ditched the 2 Ares characters, dont know them well enough.
hrm. proof dragon is literally TWICE as good as cap....? he MAY be a better fighter but he was getting rocked by bronze tiger at one point iirc. not buying he's anything more than a 60 at best--not without some definite proof. and IF is twice as good too?? seriously? can't quite recall what happened when cap and danny actually fought that one time..... oh, yeah i do. cap kicked his ass without really even trying before taking a fist to the shield. 😐
some versions of KK could maybe be 100. no one else on that list is even CLOSE to twice as good as steve. but i'd love to see scans that support the idea.

I have to agree with you Leo, except with Mantis, she is or should be well ahead of Cap.

He was well above Tiger, Tiger himself admitted as much. He was only knocking some sense into Richard, they weren't fighting for real.
When he was serious, he matched Shiva (Who could merc Cap), and only got killed because he hesitated to kill her.

The below scan is Iron Fist's first meeting with Cap:
IF's assessment of Cap in the last panel is the important part towards my POV.
Cap's technique is basic.
His overall physical stats though, make that basic technique more than enough in most cases.
Technique (skill) is what's being rated here.

cool scene. sounds like a thanos-esque retcon where we assume any loss she had was because she was "playing some roll". by that reasoning do we assume she is >>>cassie and dragon too? definitely a good showing but i'd love to see the rematch. bats has had his a$$ handed to him several times, but usually makes up for it in the next showing. not enough for me to say she is TWICE as good as cap/bats, at least not without more proof. /shrug

Thor Odinson.... 45/I've never understood why comics don"t make "immortals" who have been training and fighting for thousands of years at a much higher skill level than "mortals"Orion....?
Ra's al Ghul...40
Red Skull....35
Aquaman.....30
Namor....25
Ben Grim....30
Lady Shiva....60
Mantis....50/though I could rate her higher...it's many years since I've read anything about her

I'm judging on pure skill.
There's no doubt in my mind Dragon's more technically skilled than Cap, hence the rating.
Cap brings more than just skill to an actual fight though.
The SS puts him on a higher level than/even level with physically normal humans who are better fighters.The below scan is Iron Fist's first meeting with Cap:

cap effortlessly took out that guy who was possessed of every h2h technique in the world. his technique CAN be basic, but he has been shown to be a technical master of many techniques through his career as well. and his speed and strength factor into his ability to be a great h2h opponent.

even bp has commented on the fact that cap can adapt to every fighting style in the world. he has tons of nerve point and pressure point showings as well showing clear mastery of martial skills that are anything but basic. using a singular showing to base these ratings on doesn't seem to make much sense to me. /shrug
