Crossbones & Taskmaster vs Ra'as al Ghul & Deathstroke

All standard equipment. No prep. To the death.

Location: Abandoned Parking Garage

vs

Who Wins?

Team 2 fairly easy. Deathstroke destroys Crossbones, and then proceeds to take out Taskmaster. Ra'as isn't even needed.

Team 2. Slade is the MVP.

Isn't DS a multi tonner now of 4-5. Can team one even hurt DS while wearing his armour.

I learned the hard way on this site that Crossbones isn't that good. Looks like you just learned as well. Team 2.

Many people aren't 'good' compared to Slade in combat.

Team 2.

Well the picture in the Op is of Pre-52 Slade. If that the case then i'd be inclined to give it to Team 1. The Op is also using UDON Taskmaster who imo is more than a match for Pre-52 Slade due to his speed and S.H.I.E.L.D weapons generator. Crossbones while not the best character ever has fought Captain America to a stand-still (if I remember correctly) i'm pretty sure he could hold his own vs Ras.

If this is New-52 Slade on the other hand Team 2 take it due to DS's enhanced stats.

Team 2. Slades a beast and Ra's isn't a slouch. Crossbones the weak link here. Although I will say Udon Tasky is atleast equal to DS but Ra's>Crossbones.

Team 2

team 1

You really think that he could hold his own against Ras?

UDON Tasky can hang with pre52 Deathstroke. Crossbones won't last long in combat against Ra's though, eventually Ra's and Deathstroke will take out UDON Taskmaster. Team 2 should win, but this is closer than some people are letting on.

@GhostRider29: Its standard gear and unless i'm mistaken Crossbones carries a lot of firearms an explosives that could be used to keep Ras at bay. Whether or not he can win is debatable but he can definitely hold him off a while.

Do you think that he could hold him off in time for Taskmaster to beat Deathstroke?

@GhostRider29: If this is Pre-52 DS and UDON Taskmaster then yes I would think so.

Since when do we go by pics and not by current versions of character if not stated by the OP?

if its such a big deal just wait for jsav777 to get back and ask them yourself.

@ChaosBlazer: I don't recall making it a big deal I just asked a question things do change.

Replace Deathstroke with Bane and we have a match. Deathstroke slaughters them.

It would be closer, but then team Marvel takes it. Neither really stands a chance of taking a majority against UDON Taskmaster.

The Op has just said its Pre-52 DS.

Imo I think UDON Taskmaster could take him due to his standard gear and enhanced abilities.

@Strider92: The only thing more impressive about N52 Slade has been his armor. Aside from that, he's just slaughtered fodder for the most part (and let's be real, I doubt anyone is taking the Lobo story seriously). The wealthy amount of agility, reflex and skill feats all stem from Pre-52 Slade.

I think UDON Taskmaster vs Slade would be an excellent fight and worth paying to see, but ultimately I think Slade would take it. As for his enhanced abilities, I assume you're talking about double time. He could only use that briefly and cited it took a toll on his body. Even then, I imagine it's not providing a level of speed Slade has never faced before (shame on anyone who turns that into "LUL HE TAGGED FLASH SO HE CAN TAG ANYONE SLOWER"). So while it could be a wild card, I don't see it as a factor that could overcome Slade's superior physicals, incredible combat displays and even his healing factor.

And Ra's is underestimated again... Team 2.
