Elgb's "Sidekicks Gone Bad Battle Royale" EDGES!!!

H2H Combat: Well I gotta give in terms of knowledge Ja... I mean Arkham Knight has this :) Being trained by Batman, he obviously takes the edge in having more numerous martial arts in him. The Winter Soldier is good and all, but he sticks mostly on what the US and Russian military can give him. But still, Arkham Knight has superhuman strength, a more practical knife, and a metal arm that'll nullify these. EDGE: AK

Firearms: I know this may sound stupid but I'm actually giving this one to Arkham Knight. The Skorpion has the faster rate of fire, but it won't penetrate the Batsuit. Arkham knight pistols on the other hand, fires high powered projectiles that not only can be used for sniping, but was enough to even penetrate Batman's armor with one punch. EDGE: AK

Armor (Batsuit vs Strength, Endurance and Metal Arm): Again, I have to give this to Arkham knight. His armor is far more durable and gives him added benifits of physicality. Don't get me wrong, WS' metal arm is durable and strong, but it still lacks the power to even decently damage Steve Roger's unarmored face even with so many rageful blows. Endurance is something, but if a bullet hits you... it still kills you. EDGE: AK

X-Factors: AK is better trained, and probably wreck WS in hand to hand combat. But in terms of logistics and experience, Winter Soldier takes this. And in my book, it trumps everything else. EDGE: WS

Deadliest Warrior?

I'm gonna be honest with you. This one had my head turning all around just thinking of the rightful answer. Both can dodge automatic fire, be stealthy, and be ruthless which is a farcry from their sidekick origins. Still, while it's just my opinion, I'm gonna give this one to the Winter Soldier. I know that he doesn't have the best weapons out there, and I admit he's gonna have a hardtime getting past Arkham Knight's armor. But still, what gives him the win is his physicality and experience. While AK's dual pistols would prolong the inevetable, Bucky's experience fighting in more battles would allow him easily to get past this, knowing that even AK himself isn't really the best in firearms since he was trained to despise them (basically making him a newbie).

In terms of tactics well Arkham Knight has this since he actually took Gotham as a whole while Winter Soldier is nothing more than a chess piece. But that's the only thing that'll get him far. It took him some time to actually plan out his strategy and he still gets owned. In a no preps match-up well Winter Soldier's more direct approach would destroy Arkham Knight.
