Malcolm's Advantages
Malcolms biggest advantage is he has the range advantage, Ra's al Ghul shurikan can't compete at long range.

Additionally he has youth on his side. Even if keeping in top physical condition, age catchs up with everyone Ra's al Ghul is not a young man anymore.

Ra's al Ghul Advantage
Where as Malcolm holds strength in long range, Ra's holds control in mid and close range. His hand to hand combat skills combined with his stealth abilities give him the edge up close.

He is also older and more experienced, so while he may lack the stamina Malcolm has, he life time of experience makes up for this.

Conclusion Overall a close match, they both are highly skilled with there fair share of advantages. Malcolm holds long range, Ra's al Ghul is a master of stealth, and both are skilled in hand-to-hand combat. But in the end I think Ra's al Ghul age and experience will carry him to the win. Despite coming up short in long range and pure physicality, his skill set and experience should be able to counter these issues.

Winner: Ra's al Ghul

Barsad Vs. Deadshot
Honestly I really don't think this one needs much discussion. From what I can see Deadshot has pretty much every advantage in terms of skill set and his equipment is superior as far as I can tell.

Winner:Deadshot

Whites Advantages
Her biggest advantage coming into this is despite coming from a gang situation, hold a greater sense of organization and stability than what the Joker will be bringing in with his men. Neither is an organized fighting group in the traditional sense, but the Triads are going to be better organized than the Jokers thugs.

Joker's Advantages
While his men are not going to have the same unity of White's, the Joker is superior in planing and manipulation. His unpredictable nature and the fact he is impossible to reason with make him dangerous. While mentally unstable and doesn't care about his men, he is capable to using these traits to his advantage rather than having them hinder him. He is almost impossible to predict, is a tactical genius and not to back in a fight himself.

Conclusion While White is skilled in battle tactics, the Joker far outstrips her and is a genius in this field, despite being mentally unstable, he can turn his instability to an advantage rather than a hinderance. Given this is a squad fight, the Joker holds the edge.

Winner: The Joker

Bane Advantages
Bane is, possibly excepting Ra's al Ghul, the most dangerous combatant in this battle in terms of direct combat. I have no doubt he is physically the most powerful of all the fighter present on both side. He has drive, skill and is extremely intelligent. He is also totally ruthless and excellent field commander

Two-face Advantages
Two-face is not much of a fighter compared to the other fighters present, but he can hold his own against a normal man, which he is more or less facing in this fight, not counting Witergreen, who I imagine Bane with be facing.

Billy Wintergreen Advantages
In this particular fight, Wintergreen's advantages are that, not counting Bane, his skill set in combat out strip everyone he's gonna possible be facing, the League of Shadows men are a potientail threat, but he should be able to handle them without a major concern, Bane is the only one he really has to fear.

Edward Fryers Advantages
I'll be breif, Fryers only real advantage is fire power and numbers. While not as skilled as their League of Shadows counter Parts, there is something to be said about superior numbers.

ConclusionIn the End Bane and Two face are going to win, for two major reasons. Superior tactical leadership in Bane and Superior foot soldiers in Banes men. They have better men in the field and a superior leader to coordinator their movements, more than making up for their smaller numbers.

Winner: Bane and Two Face

Scarecrow Vs. The Count
Okay, this one is close. Both are carrying incapacitating substances that can be lethal in the right dosage. Neither is master combatant, and both are carrying a side arm and backed up by better armed thugs. Neither really has an major advantage or disadvantage. But Crane is not insane and posses at least some skill in understanding other humans.

Then there is the way the drugs are delivered, Needle vs Mist. They both have strength and weaknesses, but the Needle has to enter the skin, get into the bloodstream to work, getting blasted in the face with the gas, aside from having surprise factor, only requires a quick inhale to work.

So in the end, Scarecrow has a slight advantage.

Winner:Scarecrow

Overall Winner: Nolan Villains While the "Arrow Villains" are formidable in their own right, I just don't feel the measure up to the "Nolan Villains" at least in the matched presented in the battle.
