Captain America vs Emil Blonsky (Movie versions)

@sayo786: Cap survived a hit from Thanos. Then got up minutes later. We really using surviving single strikes from bricks to justify a win when Blonsky was clearly out of commission from it?

Post-TWS Cap wins low diff, pre-TWS Cap wins mid or nearly high diff.

Cap resistance might give him the edge

In the few feats Blonsky had you can infer he's blatantly metahuman within MCU, and after the second injection he's basically proto-Abomination so I doubt Cap can even hurt him.

Cap could beat the first injection via superior skill but not the second.

@destroyer_god: well, we haven't seen much of that second injection Blonsky but based on the first injection, he was knocked out by one hit by the hulk, while Cap resisted hits from Thanos in Endgame and was still standing. Thanos is arguably stronger or as strong as Hulk and Blonsky pre-abomination isn't stronger than Hulk, so I think Cap can take him, he's strong enough to hold a helicopter as shown in Civil War, plus superior skill (he's taken on Winter Soldier who is a trained assassin who's been on the job for decades, Cross Bones who is mechanically enhanced to have superior strength, even Ironman, Spiderman, he's taken on Corvus Glaive and Proxima Midnight, who are experienced alien warriors who are physically superior than humans and have the experience of taking over at least dozens of worlds if not hundreds or thousands), I think it's safe to say he's probably taking the edge. Blonsky's serum isn't Cap's serum, it's said to be a less efficient version (pretty much a copy, since Ross has tried to replicate it for years, that's how he accidentally turned Banner into the Hulk).

@mbcb2001: can you quantify how hard Thanos hit Cap? And are you referring to before or after he had the hammer?

After the 2nd injection Blonsky's entire skeletal structure mutates, which would increase his bone density and strength to superhuman levels beyond what he already had. It's true we don't see him do much, but he does seem abnormally agile when he sprints up a staircase railing, and he lifts a grown man above his head and then bicep curls him like a pink dumbbell.

The Hulk did put him down in one hit, but it was a direct kick that smashed Blonsky into a tree, shattering every bone in his body. The fact he even survived is crazy. And he regenerated from that in like one day. Assuming the second serum increased his physical stats and healing even more, he's gonna be a nightmare for Cap to put down.

Cap is possibly stronger and definitely more skilled, but Blonsky comes off as more agile, with better healing and possibly more durability with the mutated skeleton.

@darkthunder: in Infinity war he got punched by Thanos and got up minutes later. Also, there's no evidence that mjolnir enhances endurance, so it doesn't matter if he resisted before or after having mjolnir except for damage output, in which case, yeah Mjolnir was OP af.

@destroyer_god: here you can see how he gets a direct punch by Thanos in Infinity War and 2 hits (not counting the ones on the shield) from Thanos. He got up a few minutes later which would indicate he's more durable and/or has better regeneration 'cause he didn't seem to have broken anything lol

@destroyer_god: I think it's safe to say that Cap is arguably just as, if not more, agile than/as Blonsky

@mbcb2001: Cap had Thor's powers in the first and Thanos isn't trying to kill him in the second. Not to mention his shield absorbs virtually all of the kinetic energy for him.

Nah, I don't think Cap doing individual flips makes him more agile than Blonsky, nor dodging three hits from Loki before getting tagged. Blonsky:

1. Ran up and leaped over the Hulk.

2. Grabbed onto a railing, dodged an attack from Hulk and then shot him in the head repeatedly while flipping over him.

3. He then avoided an additional nine attacks from Hulk including by going for a leg sweep and jumping over his arm.

Starts at 3 minute mark:

What makes this better than your Cap feats, not just because of how many times he dodges Hulk consecutively, is that Hulk's surface area and reach are massive, and thus way harder to avoid. Not only is Hulk massive but he's using two huge pieces of scrap metal to improve his reach.

Unlike with most of Cap's feats and opponents, he's able to strike back or block with his shield to relieve some pressure; Blonsky doesn't have that here. If he gets hit once he loses (as would Cap btw).

Show me Cap dodging something comparable to Hulk with two huge pieces of scrap metal over 10 times consecutively without being able to hit back or block.

And that's with the first injection only. The second makes him blatantly metahuman.

@destroyer_god: Hulk isn't that hard to read though, so knowing where he's going to attack from helps with avoiding his attacks. Cap's got feats with actual normal human sized opponents where he's throwing punches and kicks as well as defending. Dancing around is much less useful in melee when there's no physical attacks being thrown. Once Blonsky has to actually throw out a punch or kick, Cap will counter like he did to Spider-Man.

Blonsky may have become tougher from the second injection, but it's still unlikely that he surpassed Spider-Man's durability and Peter definitely felt Cap's kick and shield bash.

Blonsky will lose eventually. He'll just be annoying to take down, but he's too lacking in quality feats to win. He's got good defense/evasion against opponents who spam attacks, but Cap doesn't really do that and has a more defensive fighting style.

Blonsky was ruthless and mean.. so he would not hesitate to maim his opponents. Steve Rogers is too "nice" and "fair" so he would want to fight clean... he's also more of a strategical mind so the longer the fight the better for him.

So... ruthlessness goes to Blonsky.. but Steve has the IQ that will benefit him the longer the fight goes.

@rebake: That didn't address the substance of my point at all, which is that Blonsky has superhuman agility which is superior to what Cap has shown. I'm pretty sure if you ask most heroes in the MCU if they would prefer to have a fist fight with Loki or the Hulk wielding two massive sheets of metal, they're gonna choose Loki.

Why is it unlikely that he surpassed the durability of a rookie Spiderman? He survived a direct kick from the Hulk that smashed him into a tree, and then got an augmented skeleton for his trouble after.

Blonsky wins. After his second injection he is a little hulk with combat skills. Before the second injection his healing was great but now... I don't wanna fight him.
