'''Jacky’s “World’s Greatest? Balderdash!” Edges'''

'''So this is going to be an interesting fight. Lemme just go in right for the kill here with some edges. '''

'''Batarang vs. Guns: Both are very useful in their own, special little way. Batarangs are much quieter, and are useful for a non lethal takedown and Batman handles them skillfully, while the guns are...guns. They’re useful, but loud and can be inaccurate. The thing is Batman’s batarangs are far more versatile as they can go around walls and such. The remote controlled batarang is incredibly useful. Overall, it’s a slight edge, but it’s given to the bat. '''

'''Blow gun vs. Bat Claw: This one is a biit different. While still incredibly useful, and the grappling hook allowing Batman to get to higher or lower areas quickly, it doesn’t hold up to the syringe gun’s combat potential, especially if Sherlock can get the jump on the other. Then again...this is Batman. While I don’t doubt Sherlock could probably do something to get the drop on Batman, he’ll be hard pressed to do so. However with Batman’s gun, it’s easier to avoid if you can react to it and see it coming at you in time. Ultimately, I’d say this is even. '''

'''Knives, spears and sabers vs. smoke pellets: This is...hmm, tough. Batman’s main thing is stealth, and he uses these pellets to be able to sneak around to outmaneuver opponent’s, however I feel as though Sherlock vision should serve as some form of counter to Batman’s pellets and, ultimately, make them a bit less useful than having weapons. Slight edge is given to the Lock. '''

'''Package Bomb vs. Explosive Gel: Both of these...admittedly don’t seem practical, however Holmes has more killing power, while Batman has a much more concealable weapon, and one that would make it easier to set up traps. If either were to fall into it it’d be deadly, however. Ultimately, though, the edge goes to the bat due to him being able to set up better traps, and possibly discovering the package bomb via detective vision. '''

'''Batsuit vs. Magic: while the batsuit has far more utility and defenses to allow for Batman to get up close in a fight, Sherlock’s magic would be too much for him to handle. If Sherlock only speaks one word and Batman becomes paralyzed, there’s not much Bats can do then. Big edge to Sherlock.'''

'''Sherlock vision vs. Detective vision: One is useful for finding enemies after you loss them, and scanning environment for traps and things you can use, while the other is useful for escaping or being directly in the middle of combat. While a lot of this seems to be the same, Batman’s seems far more useful from a stealth and solving viewpoint, but Sherlock does get a huge advantage from just...being able to use it without the help of gadgets.'''

'''X-Factors: Batman is physically stronger, and he has better stealth when it comes to actively being in the middle of the fight. He takes those factors. Intelligence is a bit difficult to narrow down, all the same, but ultimately, in a fighting standpoint, it...seems more even rather than not. However from a detective standpoint, well...I’ll get to that later. '''

'''Who wins the fight: It’s tough, but I do believe the bat can take Sherlock down in a fight due to his silent weaponry and being able to just barely come out in everything that’s important. Sherlock may be incredibly intelligent but the Batman has a lot of experience with superhuman and borderline supernatural. If it came to a straight up fight, he’d win without a doubt'''

'''What I think happens: I have a feeling that before any of them can really take down the other, they’re going to be figuring out who’s setting them up. If I had to take a guess as to who, I’d say Batman has the better arsenal to find out what’s happening, if only due to detective vision being better for a detective than Sherlock vision, as Detective Vision actually allows Batman to scan the environment to find what he’s looking for, or sometimes things he doesn’t exactly try to look for and just stumbles upon it. Ultimately Batman is also going to be the one who discovers the mastermind at work here before anything gets too serious. His mobility around a city and its rooftops also helps in getting to the right place.'''
