Cole did not take on the Beast "in his prime". He had to utilize the Ray Sphere to be able to do more than slow down the Beast, and the process even killed him. Cole in his prime has all the powers he has by endgame, none of which are powerful enough to take out the Agent in a single hit.

Your argument of that time gap is also shaky at best. You assume during that time of recharge the Agent is going to sit back and wait to recharge. That is, for lack of a better word, ludicrous. The Agent is smart enough to fight back long enough to keep Cole down and retreat to reorganize his attack.

I'm afraid I am not aware of your third paragraph argument. For clarification's sake, was this a large-scale bomb, which would render the argument irrelevant since Cole has nothing readily available at that power, or a grenade/rocket type weapon, which does make the argument valid?

This final paragraph is completely, totally, and utterly pointless. Like...what? Cole isn't fighting the Agent with assault rifles or sniper rifles- he's using the bolts of electricity which you have yet to counter, or the more explosive of his power, which you also have failed to counter effectively in my opinion. Your argument for the helicopter blade is also irrelevant, since Cole isn't attacking the Agent with a fucking helicopter blade.

Your entire argument is based entirely around Cole has significantly more power than he has. The powers you have brought up specifically- the Ionic Storm, and by assumption the other Ionic powers- are incredibly rare and require significant concentration and energy for Cole to utilize. The Agent's sole strength is not his armor- while the damage Cole can do to the Agent has been our entire debate, it's a proven fact that the Agent's guns can harm Cole at a much faster rate than vice versa. Cole's healing factor isn't strong enough to let him take concentrated rifle fire for longer than a few moments, and he can't attack while he's recharging.

I feel the need to address this because this is what will define whether this battle is unfair because of fact or your opinion on who wins- the Agent can definitely defeat Cole. At this point, it's a matter of whether Cole can defeat the Agent, and if he can is it at an even scale. From what we've been discussing, it's a resounding yes to both of those questions.
