 * First Place- Kevin Conroy Batman. Not only does the DCAU Bats have far more experience, he's simply the best fighter of the lot, is more mobile/acrobatic and is all around more effective.


 * Second Place- Micheal Keaton Batman. This iteration of Batman gets a slight edge up in that he's shown to kill, so he'll go where other Batmen won't go, plus his batsuit doesn't impair as much movement as the others do.


 * Third Place- Nolanverse Grimdark. Grimdark may look like an pitiful idiot compared to Conroy's Batman, and he's not incredibly skilled in hand-to-hand combat, but he still does more fighting and is more persistant than either of the other two.


 * Fourth Place- Clooney Batman. He's got slightly better armor, I suppose- though the bluer tone to it will screw him over in stealth, which is a huge asset to any Batman.


 * Fifth Place- Kilmer Batman. Okay, you can really swap these last two at will- they don't have the combat experience, skill or gadgets to hold their own in a fight, even though these two and Keaton are still technically the same person.


 * Overall Winner- Adam West Batman, because not only does he probably have a device in his utility belt to appear in this battle regardless of whether you want him here or not, he also probably has some deus-ex-machina spray to make himself win. Why isn't he here, dammit!!!
