@hail_hydra: Hawkeye has made shots that Ollie and Merlyn NEVER could. For reference, CW Flash has an average run speed of just over 700 MPH. This is displayed via a cop with a radar gun, and when he was running around the city. Now, he actually has scenes where he runs significantly SLOWER then that. Those in fact make up the vast majority of his combat. Racing an arrow ollie fires puts him at adound 40-50 mph in combat. His absolute top speed was mach 2 which he hit when he traveled throguh time...THAT was explicitly stated during the last flarrow crossover.
Now, chitauri chariots were flying between 600-700 mph in the open and maybe half that in combat maneuvers. So to note...Hakeye hit something moving as fast as the Flash typically runs in travel, from around 100 meters away...without looking.
You really want to play the "skilled" shot card?
Because Ollie needed prep to make shot that Barton made casually well he was guiding units in combat.
Also...Dodging arrows? Are you high? They are literally ALREADY moving at the time every arrow is fired...don't equate movement doing it's job with tracking dodging. It isn't. By that mentality the cowboys at the ok corral were bullet timers. But I digress.
They were what...50 yards apart at minimum? Meaning those arrows would have taken around a 1/4 second to reach them. For comparison, a punch would take about .05 seconds to reach. So basically...slipping a punch is harder then making arrows miss over that distance when you are already on the move.
League ninjas are horrible fodder...Laurel takes them out. Are we supposed to be impressed?
Did you miss the part where ollie had to be saved from those argus agents. Every single person on the marvel team eats hydra and shield agents for breakfast. Armed or not. And from a strictly tactical and weapons handling sense, shield and hydra agents are heads and shoulders above anything on arrow. Everthing from their stance and posture to the formations used are from a real world sense, observably more advanced. It is literally like comparing a Marine to a jihadist, or Seal to an air force tech in terms of combat abilities.
