Haven't we done this match before? Either way:
 * Melee: The Elite's blade is made of plasma, the Predators is metal, edge Elite
 * Close Range: The Needler is a firearm. The stick and shuriken are not firearms, this edge easily goes to the Elite.
 * Long Range: Haven't seen Predator in a while, but I think the plasma caster doesn't have the bullet drop problem of the Fuel Rod gun, edge Predator
 * The Net gun's ability to burn through the flesh of a target and cut them to pieces is nasty, but the plasma repeater has a faster rate of fire and kills more immediately. Edge Elite
 * Grenades: The Elite's Plasma grenade will stick to flesh and is practically impossible to remove. Edge: Elite.

Overall: The Predator has superhuman speed and strength, but the Elite has superior weapons and energy shield technology, giving it the edge in the battle.
