Exactly. The god of prep apparently will just sneak up and one shot Cyke. As though he doesn't train with ninjas and martial artists, some of whom are Batman's equal, all the time. Like he hasn't trained with people who are functionally invisible. Like he doesn't train blind, just in case he can't use his blasts. Like he doesn't fight blind. And like he doesn't have a mutant ability that gives him perfect spatial geometry allowing him to know precisely where everything in his environment is. It's far more likely that Scott uses his prep and knowledge learned about Bats to plan a trap, expecting Bats to try a sneak attack and have a series of ricochet shots planned to put him down. Since they're both "full of rage", prep pretty much goes out the window. When someone's in a rage, they generally don't think or plan very well. And I know these scans have already been posted, but I should point out that in neither of these situations, was Scott angry. Imagine if Scott, the same guy who decided that it was time the X-men had a murder squad with the formation of the new X-Force team, what if he were really in a rage? Meanwhile Batman can't even finish the Joker after he's murdered and crippled the people closest to him. Batman rage usually ends in Batman crying somewhere because the world is unfair. Scott's looks like ground zero of a nuclear explosion.
