Kinda hard to beat that aside from Taskmaster.

Like i said, was hoping for in order though.

Cassandra
Snake Eyes
batman
Daredevil
Death stroke
Cap

Cap has at least one feat of picking up a new style of fighting at the climax of Kang Dynasty on the holographic combat.

Cap is probably capable of it, but he is also stubborn and carries a large bulky shield at all times. Seems like it would be hard to switch fighting styles while grasping a 3 foot wide metal disk.

Thats an interesting thing to say, as its usually shown others cant fight the way -he- does/use his shield effectively.
Pretty sure Hawkeye managed to at least throw the shield correctly though.

And he also has at least one anti-feat of not being able to adapt to Hand ninjas' fighting style fast enough before getting his butt kicked.

Pretty sure everyone has those?

StiltmanFTW
No, not like that.

Doesn't help that Steve was at his absolute peak during WW2, either.

I'm just looking at it from a realistic standpoint. Seems like a large metal disk would impede my ability to replicate a lot of movements etc.

beatboks
Taskmaster smile

Wonder Man
Nightcrawler obviously or Ares.

Freshly after the training he received from the military. Same guys taught Bucky, btw.

According to the Taskmaster, Steve was at his best then.

Well, he -is- a trustworthy fellow?

StiltmanFTW
He's studied Cap and studied him well, Steve himself acknowledged that.

Good scan Stilt...forgot all about Finesse and Avengers Academy

Tis true. You i trust, Tasky i dont. stick out tongue

So where is Cap ranking for you, here?

lft4ded
I don't think Taskmaster is saying Steve is less skilled or capable now vs WW2. His follow-up statement, "More of an edge", seems to imply he was quicker to go for the kill/cripple than he is now, that he was more ruthless.

riv6672
^^^good point.
