Elgb's "Shoulda been Edward Kenway but meh..." EDGES!!!

Melee: Both weapons have their own advantages and disadvantages. Sparrow's cutlass has the advantage in lethality and range (his sword was crafted to be longer than the average cutlass of the time). But Connor's axe and hidden blade has the advantage of surprise and duality. But in the end, one disadvantage Connor's weapons have is that they are fragile and nimble. Historically, the average Indian tomahawk has been known to break in pressure, and in the games they were a lot of examples where the Hidden Blade would break apart or even snap when used too frequently in battle. So in the end, Jack's got the edge because his melee weapons are deadlier and more durable. EDGE: Sparrow

Mid: Although the 3 pistol combo Jack has may look and feel superior, in thruth they're actually the inferior due to the fact that you have to switch pistols when you fire those things (flintlock pistols are hard to dual weild, due to it being very innacurate). The double barrel pistol has one handle and one set of sights that allows Connor to fight accurately, continously, and easily. EDGE: Connor

Long: This is a tough one initially. The musket has the edge in firepower and simplicity while the bow has the edge in rate of fire and accuracy. If this was a total war battle then the simple musket would have been devastating. But no; both warriors are talented and experts enough to use their weapons without any hassle. So in the end, I couldn't decide... EDGE: Even

Short: Well this is an easy win for the blunderbuss. It's easier to aim, easier to fire and is far more devastating. A rope dart is just a complex dart that uses a lor more effort and training to use. EDGE: Sparrow

X-Factors: Jack's got the wits while Connor's got the physicality. Hard to decide, but in the end I'm going with Connor. He's killed far more people than Jack Sparrow has. No question. EDGE: Connor

Deadliest Warrior?

Now hold your breaths PotC fans because I'm pretty sure you're gonna rip me a new one after I decalare Connor as the winner of this battle. Yes sure, Sparrow has more guns and edges in this fight, but it won't do shit because Connor's faced those things before and massacred an army of gunmen like they were breakfast. Another edge I give is that, while Sparrow is smart, he does so because he doesn't have the heart to kill. Connor on the other hand just kill people outright, he's killed far more people than Sparrow, so he has the edge in killer instinct.

And since this is gonna take place in Charlestown, Connor has the battlefield edge with all the buildings and people he can hide into (which entirely nullifies Sparrow's firearm advantage due to their innacuracy). But what really gives Connor the win is that he's just tactically more successful than Sparrow. Yes argue all you want how Sparrow is samrt as shit, but you have to admit that many times he's got himself caught many times before, and he could have died mant times as well if it wasn't for luck (or IMO... bad plot armor and writing). Connor on the other hand, handled himself pretty damn well in a war. He's a damn one-man army of death that Sparrow could never withstand.
