 * Offensive Powers- Even. Voldemort has numerous spells and dark arts at his disposal- vastly more abilities than Slenderman's own skills, but quantity is not better than quality. Ultimately, a great number of Voldemort's spells are unlikely to have much of an effect- the Slenderman is entirely unhuman in it's anatomy- Crucio relies on harming the opponent but in this case there's no reason to believe the source of the pain would similarly harm Slenderman, nor is it even known if the Slenderman can feel pain the way Voldemort's human enemys can, just as one of many examples of the Slenderman's nature undoing the offensive capabilities of Voldemort's spells. Voldemort may possess a number of spells to summon fire, but Slenderman has displayed a mastery of fire manipulation far beyond Voldemort's- while Voldemort seems to simply create it with his magic, Slenderman can not only create it with its mind, but can manipulate the fire around it to do its bidding, including the destruction of all near it and the murder of any witnesses. Once the battle moves up-close, and with a being as swift and invisiblessed as Slenderman, it will, the Slenderman has a massive advantage with strength that no human being can possibly match- it's horrifiic tendrils are both mobility tools and mid/close range weapons for grabbing and tearing a foe apart, mutilating a body or simply binding a foe for a killing blow. In addition to this, the longer the fight goes on, the more dangerous it becomes for Voldemort thanks to Slenderman's apparant release of Sigma Radiation at all times, which appears to cause the disease known as The Sickness, a debilitating curse that makes prey an easy target. That said, with his nonverbal magic, wide array of spells and masterful dueling, Voldemort's own offensive abilities are enough to tie in this category.


 * Defensive Abilities- Slenderman. Voldemort has some powerful defenses against magic, but Slenderman is not a magical being, or at the very least, not a magical being in the sense that Voldemort would be prepared for. His most effective defensive ability, his horcruxes, really only delay the inevitable- assuming he even has them in this battle (The wiki standard has thus far been that he's down to his last remaining Horcrux, Nagini, and the snake is involved in the battle- there's no indication of the status of the Horcruxes here at all). Slenderman, on the other hand, is nearly impossible to touch if it doesn't wish it. It can teleport seemingly anywhere at will without hesitation, it can turn completely invisible and become unseeable to anyone it doesn't want to see it- meaning it could decide Voldemort simply can't see it, and it becomes so. Its mastery of Camoflauge and disguise are vital skills that make pinning it down hard- the foe that you encountered three seconds ago could disappear and the next time you see it, that same foe may look nothing like it did before. Its also in possession of a passive mind control which, in some cases, can allow the Slenderman to take complete control of the target and override its concious self, and while Voldemort does have some mental manipulation of his own, Slenderman is an otherworldy abomination and the nature of its mind is unfathomable to human thought- to step into its mind is more likely to backfire on Voldemort than it is to help him. Ultimately, Voldemort is simply unable to do anything to actually hit Slenderman. Its teleportation, its complete invisibility, its mental manipulation mastery- all of it contributes to making a foe that cannot be harmed, and if Voldemort can pin it down and hit it with a spell, he can't kill it.


 * Deadliest Warrior- Slenderman. The Slenderman is an unknowable force of eldritch horror, while Voldemort is ultimately just a man with spells. Voldemort's abilities are unable to hit or harm Slenderman, while Slenderman's own offensive abilities can and will take Voldemort apart. The Dark Wizard has proven time and time again to be a jobber, and that doesn't stop here- he simply can't compete with the Slenderman.
