User blog comment:Mikeylango/John Marston vs. Niko Bellic: REMATCH!/@comment-172.56.6.110-20140712013625

During each game play session, I always felt that John was overall the better/deadlier character. Niko and his team have more effective weaponry, but the Red Dead team, in my opinion, has more overall skill. Niko kills thugs, police, etc. nothing too bad while John has taken on mercs, bandits, squads of officers, the Chupacabra, many Sasquatch's, zombies (not canon but still fairly impressive) and various wild animals. John is also quicker to the draw and has better reflexes, Niko has next to zero speed/reflex feats. GTA team is more for just walking up to someone and shooting them a couple of times, while Red team was born in a world where only the strong survive. Red Dead team should take a hefty majority of 7-8/10.
