I think I'll give the edge to the HYDRA commanders here for quite a few reasons. First off, Von Strucker is a bit better of a tactician then Deadshot....And quite a lot better of one then the rest of the SS. Zemo and Viper are also good tacticians. El Diablo can melt bullets on impact, I'mpretty sure a Deathray will counter that. A Deathray is an energy weapon, I'd like to see El Diablo melt that. One shot to any part of the body'll kill him. And isn't a Deathray basically a disintegrator? In that case it will destroy cover. Giving the SS no cover. Every HYDRA Commander will be very useful, Harley Quin will be virtually useless. First off, all she has is a giant hammer (which'll just slow her down most likely), a sickle knife, and a browning high power. It's not like she's super-stealthy like Black Spider is so she can flank them and make efficient use of it. The hammer will probably just slow her down and can be easily cut in half or dodged for christ sakes. She's not that skilled of a hand-to-hand combatant. She's fairly intelligent I guess......It's not like she's a great tactician or a very skilled figher either. She's a decent hand-to-hand combatant at best. Yeah she'll be easily destroyed by any of the HYDRA Commanders. Once one member of the SS is dead (probably Harley first), Grim Reaper can just make them them into a friggin zombie and make copies. So then the SS will be dealing with the HYDRA Commanders, and zombies. They won't have any cover, everytime they take it they'll loose it due to the deathray. Then they can just be picked off by the HYDRA Commanders, and they'll have zombies coming after them on top of it. Space Phantom can turn into one of them. So if they get separated Phantom can just shapeshift into one of them and you can picture the rest. I don't think Black Spider's stealth will do that much in this fight. Maybe get a couplea kills...but he'll be dead eventually and won't get enough. So while I could go on about the other members of the SS and other HYDRA Commanders......I think I've said all that needs to be said. Vote=HYDRA Commanders.
