Kriller99's edges:

Weapons -

Short Range: Hidden Blade. While the club is the heavier weapon, it's very slow, and requires two hands. Meanwhile, the hidden blade has neither of those disadvantages, and also has the benefit of being composed of steel.

Mid Range: Stone Spear. Yes, it's true that the Tomahawk is lighter and likely made of better materials, but the spear also has the option of being thrown, and it's the longer weapon in a melee fight.

Long Range: Double Bow. While I'm not sure how accurate Connor and Takkar are with their respective bows, the steel arrows and quick reload of Connor's long range weapon won't be that big of a deal, given that neither warrior wears armor, and Takkar has shrugged off arrows fairly easily in-game. The fact that Takkar can fire two arrows at once gives him a slight edge.

Special Weapon: Smilodon. The double barrel flintlock pistol needs a fair bit of time to reload, and it isn't good past 20 feet. The Smilodon can serve as a distraction for Connor to face as well as a psychological edge.

X-Factors

Skills: Connor has the superior training, not only being tutored by the Mohawk tribe, but the Assassin order as well.

Experience: Oddly enough, I'm giving the edge to Takkar. Connor is an amazing survivalist, but he isn't constantly fighting for his life in a prehistoric death world. Takkar not only has to put up with this, but also fight the Uddam and Izila, not to mention provide for his tribe. Connor can theoretically obtain supplies from a colony every once in awhile.

Tactics: Connor. Being several thousand years ahead in warfare gives him more versatility than Takkar, and that's not factoring in his superior assassin training and special abilities like the eagle vision.

Deadliest Warrior: Connor. He's more well-trained, has effective weapons in all categories, and has fought more advanced foes than Takkar had. I will say though, this battle is closer than people are making it out to be. Takkar is the leader of the Wenja for a VERY good reason.
