If both know all about the other?
Edge to Kyle who would start the fight with full shields up
If neither knows jack?
Still edge to Kyle as I don't see black bolt as pulling out his big guns unless necessary.

I know there is a scan of Kyle using his ring to hold onto an angel and take his physical resistance and turn that energy into audio - thereby neutralizing the angel's efforts. It's not in either of his respect threads, but I know it exists.
The point I wanted to make with it is that Kyle could reverse that sequence and turn all of BB's audio - assuming he gets that information - into a light show or something.
Some people tend to forget that BlackBolt is a physical monster and he is also one of the most versatile Heralds out there. If Kyle wins and that's a HUGE if... It will not be as easy as people are making it.
Why couldn't Kyle's auto shields tank BB's voice (unless you think BB's going to start off with an all-out scream, which really isn't in character for him)?
You got the point. Sound/Voice. In a lot of comics his power does work that way. I know there is some electron component to it, I'm just saying the effect can be changed into something else.
