MD 33's Vote: "Last Laugh"

Short Range: Butterfly Swords vs OFT Extractor Knife

By just looking at the name, Kano gets the edge. Dude. A pair of swords vs a small-ass knife. What do you expect? As much as how easy the knife can be concealed and how fast it is (considering its lesser weight), Kano's swords are deadlier and have cut magical enemies. Hey, what do you expect. He's from a fighting game. Fighting game characters usually fight other characters that are amped by magic. Nothing else to say here. The swords are 100% deadlier than a goddamn knife.

Pistols: CZ-75 vs Custom Glock 17

I gotta give this one to the Joker. The CZ-75 is stronger than the Glock, but what use does it have? Sure it's stronger. But it won't matter if the other gun's gonna kill you anyway. The Glock also has a bigger capacity for more shots and... it's semi-auto (ehm, I'm running out of reasons so I'm taking your own reason XD). Not much to say again, Joker's pistol has more ammo in it.

Long Range: Bionic Eye vs R870

Now this is interesting. On one side, we have Kano's iconic bionic eye that technically has infinite range (hyperbole but still, it has a better range than the shotgun) and fires plasma while on the other side, we have the classic Remington shotgun Joker uses. I have to give this one to Kano. The M870 is deadly on its own right, especially up-close. Considering that Kano's a close-range fighter mostly, the shotgun should get the edge. But then, before the close-quarters-combat starts, Kano can start up the fight using a blast from his bionic eye. Dude, it fires plasma that in a concentrated burst can deliver pain to Kotal Kahn (believe me he's one tough SoB), or "Buluc", the War God. Though because of Kotal's seemingly greater power, it seems to be nothing to him but a brief sensation of pain. Still, Kano's bionic eye is deadlier and has a longer range.

RPGs: The Original vs the Knock-Off

Both are the same, yes I know. But based on the stats above, the RPG-7 used by Kano takes the edge. Why? Sure it is the same. But for the sake of it, Kano's RPG has a bigger round (85>44). Kano's strength is greater, as well, so he can handle the RPG-7 better than the Joker. I know it's kind of an oversight but, hey, you even gotta give in to the small things, right?

X-Factors:

The Australian Mercenary: 82.25

The Clown Prince of Chaos (of Nolanverse): 78.75

Edge: Kano

WINNER: KANO

Yeah. Even from the start of this vote, you know I'm pickin' on Kano. Joker is deadly on his own right and he's more unpredictable, as well as smarter. But that's when his edges end. Most of his weapons suck (even I can guarantee that his pistol's not gonna do much against Kano himself), he lacks the experience, and he's just... simply out of the class against Kano. Kano has faced some of the deadliest threats the MK-verse has to offer. Kotal Kahn, Scorpion, Sub-Zero, Smoke. Just to name a few. Besides, Kano's own natural strength is sufficient enough to rip off a man's spine. Oh wait, let alone a man. Cyborgs, Shokans, supernatural ninjas, special agents with special powers. Joker's simply out of his league here, and the only "super-man" he has ever faced was Batman... and he lost. I admire how smart he is, but it ain't gonna be enough to contend against Kano. Damn, Joker, the joke's on you now.
