TheWetWaffle's "You Gotta HAND It to Merle, He's a Brave Guy" Edges

Melee: I'll call this one even. Lil' Merle is more portable and Merle has access to it in a skrimish. However, it lacks the range of the Bat. The Bat is longer, heavier, and has better range. Its issue is that it's hard to get the lethal puncture wounds the Bayonet brings. It's gonna be hard for Merle to get a hit in since the Bat's range will repel him but Trevor will have a tough time killing him when one blow won't do the job.

Edge: Even
