@js_the_beast:Let me clarify. Yes Arrow would beat all of those people one way or another. We will see him beat Darhk in a few days, if he fought Vixen he'd beat her, with the Flash they didn't really want to show who won that fight, but we saw that he was capable of handling himself, and no he doiesn not beat Slade one on one. Slade taught Oliver almost all of his combat skills so they write Slade to win every time,but they also write Oliver to win through other methods besides fighting a "fair" one on one(Mirakuru weakening Slade and making him vulnerable, writing Thea into the script to grab a tree branch and hit an emotional Slade down). Gunfire is not always the same as dodging Arrows. Dodging gunfire is more of running from a vicinity of where shots are being fired. It's not actually noticing that a bullet has been fired and getting out of the way. Dodging arrows is the other way around. Arrows are often more calculated shots while gunfire is usually shot in a general direction, especially with automatic weapons. What I said about writers privilege was correct. Just because the MCU faces more dangerous stuff does not mean it trumps that. That's why it's called writer's privilege. The story is written so that.
Flight is a good advantage, but not god enough of one. Oliver takes out the missiles, he has dealt with machine guns before, wing-armor is good against bullets, but not so much against calculated shots, sensors are a big help and are probably his greatest advantage but I don't see the match lasting that long. Redwing is another big help, but I believe Sam would be dead soon before. The main reason Oliver wins is because of Falcon's vulnerabilities. If Falcon didn't have his head and arms uncovered, then I'd bet on him.
How does Oliver take out the missiles? And please explain how Oliver escapes being shot. Oliver also has his head and arms uncovered. Your argument of arrows and gunfire is garbage. If Falcon doesn't get tagged by a bullet which is a lot faster than an arrow, he's not getting tagged by an arrow. Please show some of these calculated shots. What stops falcons wings from blocking all of Oliver's arrow's? Falcon doesn't have to be even close to them to take them out. Your argument that flight isn't good enough isn't good enough.
