These two often feature as a pair in these threads, but I don't think this has been done here before.

- Fight takes place in Smallville.
- Both are as they were depicted in MoS.
- Opponents start 50 feet apart.
- No BFR, win via KO/death/incapacitation.

Who takes it?

Faora.
Way smarter.
Much more competent.
Way much more hotter.

Good fight. Faora wouldn't be able to hurt Nam significantly (it would take her a long time to accrue any significant amount of damage) as I see Nam tougher than or equal to Clark against physical strikes.
Nam is a lot stronger as he was able to nearly ko (or put down for awhile) Superman with a few attacks.

Faora is significantly faster though and can avoid most, if not all, of Nam's attacks.

If Nam manages to grab her or get a good jarring hit on her then it's over. But if she manage to avoid being tagged by solid blows or grabbed indefinitely then she can win by attrition.


Fight can go either way.

Faora is the only kryptonian who actually showed decent fighting skill. I'm convinced that had she learned to handle her powers without her helmet like Zod did, she would have (easily) defeated Superman.

So yeah, Faora for the win. Namek didn't do anything that puts him above Faora.

Faora stomps

Namek. Faora makes him work for it because she's faster and more skilled but he wins every time.

Namek wins.

Stronger?
Ok

1. The train feat
2. Nam pummeled Superman with several hits and Clark was down out of the fight for a significant amount of time. When Faora hit Clark several times, Clark barely missed a beat.


More durable?
Ok

Nam took Clarks best haymakers without any damage (almost no sold them). Faora appeared more jarred at times when Clark struck her.

If you watch the scenes then it is clear that Nam is stronger and more durable.

Please show clips of Namek beating up Superman enough that he was taken out of the fight.

Look at 1:04 when Nam grabs Clark. After the combo Clark can be seen koed (or almost koed).

Lol. Exaggeration. Clark stayed down longer after Faora's punches in the diner.

Unless of course you mean the combo where both Namek and Faora tag teamed Clark? In which case that wasn't Namek alone.

Seems like Faora's hook/clothesline is what put Clark down for a bit. He was still conscious and moving when Namek was hitting him, just couldn't respond because he was getting combo'd. And everything after the IHOP was a team effort. As soon as they got split up, Clark punched him across town and Nam was out of the fight for a good while.

Faora didn't appear to hit Clark in that exchange with Nam. Nam did all if not most of the damage (according to you).

Pausing the video shows her foot pass Clark's feet. So if she did make contact (can't see or hear it) then it was lower leg on lower leg contact.

Clark hit him with haymakers and nothing happened (you can't cherry pick low feats over higher ones). Clark hit Nam hundreds of miles away that knocked a full train over (it was the force of the punch and fall that added).

Wrong. At 1:10 it's obvious she hits him. You know why? You see her swing as he flies toward her, then all of a sudden his trajectory changes and he goes straight down, makes an impact crater in the concrete and skids a few more feet before stopping. Almost like someone with super strength punched him.

As hard as Nam-Ek kicked him, if Faora didn't touch him he would've been flying straight back without touching the ground until he hit something.

Also if Nam who is the slowest of the bunch can surprise Clark with a grab, you really think Faora is so slow and bad at fighting she'd just whiff a free assist like that?

Wrong, his trajectory stays the same. She appears to either miss him or avoid him. I paused the scene several times. Her leg and his leg comes close to each other at best. Nam maybe the slowest but he's not far off from them two.

Even if she hit him (phantom strike) then clearly Nam did the high majority of the damage.

I don't see her really affecting Nam well. She could win by attrition if she doesn't get hit by a solid attack.

KingD19
So explain why he suddenly goes straight down, bounces off the concrete and skids right at the point they would have made impact after she swings at him?

If she didn't hit him into the ground, why is the ground damaged where he would've hit?

Why did he suddenly hit the ground instead of go flying back further? We know how hard the Kryptonians can hit and that kick was undefended.

Oh, and pausing the scene isn't gonna help you see that motion. It's a fraction of a frame. Just watch it and actually pay attention. Pretty much anyone else will tell you my interpretation makes more sense than yours.

You try so hard to shift the narrative you ignore even the feats themselves when you don't like a section of it.

Cmon h1, this is a new level of trolling even for you. Faora clearly landed the final shot against Superman in that exchange. That was not all Nam.

Only a complete idiot would argue otherwise. Are you an idiot?

Well I guess I'm an idiot because it appears she whiffed at Clark.
Unless you can show irrefutable evidence to where she struck Clark at. Hitting Also striking Clarks feet/legs doesn't contribute to the ko.
