Second she only accomplish it becuase the person was pinned by shield agents.
3rd it was not a pressure point it was the deltoids.
Do burns really affect whether or not it works?
Yea, I guess it's not pressure points, it's... structure points? Wrong words on my part.
The point I'm trying to make is, the right places can be used to hurt him.
fourth she used sias which she had to hold in place inorder for it to work. Something that Cassie does not posses.
She does have razor sharp batarangs, which she could stick in and leave there.
As for this fight, I dont know who wins, Cassie is a beast. Though pressure points working based on events from her (father one could say) seems very unlikely based on the fact they nearly never work even with out side circumstances.
There was a time against the Brotherhood of Evil when she just one-shotted a ManBat, and as mentioned Spoiler. They might be harder to do against a really skilled foe, but she does use the,
I'll mention some non-pressure point stuff she's done: Knocked out a minorly invulnerable guy with "a punch strong enough to crush a normal person's skull" (Batman's request on how hard would be needed to KO him). Took out a tougher invulnerable guy who at first ignored her attacks by simply applying full-strength blows to the back of the head, again and again and again until he dropped.
Dealing with invulnerability and healing factor isn't exactly the same, but... if a HF person gets hurt a lot, they do tend to get worn down. If Cassandra can inflict a major hurt, she'll just keep at it and not give a chance to catch their breath or heal back to full if she can help it.
