Perfect. This is correct. And Brock great thread for my quite possibly favorite street leveler.

Stops @8 Is it because of Spiderman's speed or strength? IMO the movies should boost Task Master's speed enough for him to to keep up with Pete, I'd even contend that he could get past the first Spiderman, but the additional amps provided by the symbiote would be too much for him to clear the gauntlet.

Stop at 6 and wtf is Gamora doing this low?
She would murder everyone else on the gauntlet at the same time.

Question, does Taskmaster get his stats upgraded or is he at best peak human?
He can copy for example the skill of Gamora, but can he copy her metahuman stats as well?

just moves/skill

Then he has serious troubles at 2 and stops hard at 3.
Panther fillets him.

TaskMaster is legitimately low meta stat wise, probably right around Cap level.

Even so (although I have never seen confirmation of Taskmaster being a metahuman), Panther's tech and stats should be more than enough. And he also has all the knowledge from previous Panthers. Tasky might copy the moves but not the knowledge, cunning and experience of all previous Panthers.

Also any issue numbers or scans that state Taskmaster as metahuman?

He stalemated Cap & Bucky Cap at the same time.

Marvel doesn't use the term meta human often, but by feats Tasky is well above peak human.

WOO WOO WOO Cap stands just as much of a Chance as Spiderman he Held his own with Taskmaster Before and i Bet TaskMaster could Beat Spiderman, Remember PHOTOGRAPHIC REFLEX'S

Well BP has been stated as metahuman recently and in combination with his standard gear (teleporter, armor, vibranium knives) I can't see Tasky surviving Tchala. He showed some superspeed under Hickman and he only needs to land a couple of hits with the vibranium knives to take this.

I believe he can do this quite easily against Taskmaster.
Either by superior speed or teleporter.

Either by superior speed or teleporter. You might want to check you facts bro. Taskmaster can still do his times 2 speed moves and that could potentially offset Panther's speed and teleporter advantages. Also, isn't Taskmater's shield made out of Adamantium? If so, then that could help him potentially offset Panther's Vibranium suit and he's managed to throw down with the likes of Daredevil and Spider-man multiple times before (both of which are physically around where Panther currently is). Even If Panther does win this, it won't be easy.

Wow I completely glanced over Gamora, and didn't even see her. Yeah that is a mismatch, Tony is in serious trouble there.

Nope, taskmasters shield is actually made out of a slightly less durable alloy than Vibranium/adamantium. But still he can definitely contend with T'challa.

Gamora and BP are the biggest threats here, unsure how Tasky would do against them but he can definately contend.

He takes the rest (including Ozzy if he is switched for Gamora).

Apparently, if he watches it at high speed, he can do the moves at high speed.

The (totally ridiculous PISfull) armbar has nothing to do with Black Panther's actual power level.
It's more than enough to beat Taskmaster.

But after seeing the scan where he can somehow repeat moves at the speed he watches them (that's what I was asking about - seems like a metahuman ability - cheers DarkSaint85), I'd say Panther still wins, but after a more even fight.

Panther still has better overall equipment and mystical mojo, overall stats (can Tasky also copy strength and stamina?) going on for him (currently at least).

Stops at Daredevil, the Gorgon smasher, the Ultron buster, who one-shots Wolverine with ease. All these examples written by different writers so you know this is not inconsistent with DD's history flirt

He can'tcopy strength or durability....and going at 2x speed tires himout quickly.

Thx fro the info.
At least tiring faster makes sense for his speed copying but very impressive skill anyway.

Btw, since the movies are actually displaying actors I don't think Task Master would learn much from looking at them.

Also, seeing as he's been shown to know borderline every martial art anyway, watching films would basically do nothing for him.

Stops at Gamora, BP's tech and stats make it a hard fight for him, but I reckon he'd be able to grab the win there.

Taskmaster can possibly clear the list if he isn't F#@%!NG Around and what's with people saying he lose's to Spiderman he's to Overrated IMO if Tony aint screwin around or Jobbin he ends Spiderman. and saying he Beats Captain America is Ridiculous, In Earth 616 Captain America Beat the Hulk while Spiderman on the Other Hand couldn't and was S&%!T!NG his pants while Cap dealt some nasty Blows to him and then Spidey grew some B@!!S and together delivered the Final KO Blow. wait till i find the Scans

I don't have them myself, but I know I remember Pete talking about it and there being a flashback during "The Death of Captain America", if that helps.
