No prep no BFR.
Midnight. Hell's Kitchen. Start distance 1 city block.

Sabertooth

Again, not a very Carver like response!

carver9
Sabertooth is an amped Wolverine and it's debatable if Slade could pull a majority against Wolvy. Sabertooth holds nearly every advantage minus fighting skills and even then it's slim. Not only does he carry almost every physical advantage, he has one of the best healing factors in Marvel with a blood thirst to kill from the onset of the battle. Slade is good but not Sabertooth good.

BAM! Carver style!!!

Slade is good but not Sabertooth good. that's not exactly true. Slade's weapons give him a huge ranged advantage and he is most certainly smarter than creed. Since they start in a city and won't be able to immediately attack each other, slade can also set up some traps. With that said, Creed wins 7/10 with difficulty.

What range attacks has Slade shown that would drop Creed? His average weapons. Not a one time showing.

Omega Vision
Sabretooth more often than not.

I would love to see this in a comic.

leonidas
probably ds for a slight majority. he doesn't have to drop creed with the weapons, just hurt him enough to bide time to get in a killing stroke or stab through the heart or head. ds has a lot of gadgets. he'd avoid sabes until there was an opening. logan needs to get in close. that's a disadvantage slade doesn't have. and let's not forget--his staff has some pretty damn good firepower--he's easily taken out starfire more than once and she has some excellent durability showings.....

riv6672
Me too, OV.

Not sure what deathlash is reading into the OP, but a one block start distance isnt going to give Slade any time for trap setting really. Creed could cover that distance quickly. And Creed's no dummy.

carver9
If the fight starts at a distance, it's more of an advantage for Creed than the other way around due to his hyper senses.

riv6672
I tried to make it as straightforward a fight as possible.
One block gives Creed tome to close distance, Slade time to shoot, but not run off and hide, then it goes h2h, which is way more interesting.

Without Nth Armor, Sabretooth.
With, Slade.

riv6672
Well its the first one. wink

Not a one time showing. you forget, Creed has been downed by bullets before (as shown by his fight with deadpool) and Deathstroke is an expert marksman. If I recall correctly, slade has harmed starfire with his energy staff. Creed still takes this fight, but I just don't think he wins such an overwhelming victory.

Standard gear? Slade needs to keep his distance and pick Sabertooth off at range, Sabertooth is stronger and Slade isn't going to put him down in a close quarters fight so as long as he keeps distance. Slade could try to use stealth but Creed will most likely pick up on his scent so it most likely won't work.

A running bsttle, then...

wow. people gave sabretooth way too much credit. more than he deserves. there are indeed some showings here and there, specially the weapon X last upgrade series in wolverine comics, where sabretooth is actually good. but overall, the complete devastating majority of his showings, creed cant fight for shit. stop going by stats and go by comics. his so called fighting skills are laughable and come down to him charging trying to slash someone and getting his ass kicked. he gives wolverine trouble because he is suppose to be his arc nemesis. but aside of wolverine.... he simply is getting his ass handed to him. gambit took him out many times with his staff. creed has very hard time fighting skilled fighters. he does best vs big slow bricks like for example how he dealt with a random version of wendigo. wendigo is strong and all but he is perfect for sabretooth to cut and slash. but once creed faces a skilled opponent, he goes down. same skilled opponent probably wont be able to take out wendigo thought. its like rock paper scissors actually. but in this fight, slade for the majority no doubt.
