At least because vi scales well above that feat and the guy who tanked that wasnt really hurt by it
 
So they should be around the same strenght at least. Vi slightly higher. That's cool.

I don't really know if you can make an argument Vi matches Bane in skill? In experience that can be argued sure, she's been fighting since she's a child and so has Bane, but I don't think Vi has as much pure fighting knowledge as Bane and normally just kinda punches real good.

Ye, though Vi has a sizable advantage in pure physical strength (Class M to Bane's Class 5) which would be super useful if it comes to grappling, which both characters tend to use a decent amount in their fighting styles.

Eeeeh that's sorta fair? Bane has kept up with people way more skilled than Vi in cqc like Bats and Ras al ghul before, though if memory serves me correctly a lot of that had to do with him being significantly stronger than them and also decently skilled rather than being directly equal to them in skill. And punches good is a bit of an understatement lol, according to both the fight choreographers for Arcane and more than a few fight choreography and martial arts reviewers online, Vi's cqc skill would put any modern MMA fighter to shame.
 
Theres also the issue of vi having dealt with guys who use Bane's exact method of empowerment before, people with technology that pumps chemical steroids through them to make them stronger are commonplace in her neck of the woods, so Bane would be in trouble in that regard.
 
With the file currently? I am not so sure tbh. His skills are impressive in the intelligence section, but idk if he can beat her overall. Especially with them forcefields. They can be quite effective against someone like bane imo.

What's the ap gap?


Currently he is missing some combat and weapons stuff. And stealth mastery which is quite good. Like sneaking up on Tim when Tim was actually sneaking up on him. Kinda funny but ye
 
wait Vi has a forcefield? Lol I don't remember that
Yeah, though she only ever used it once in Arcane, in the rematch with Sevika I posted above, so it's not exactly a huge game changer (she uses it more in the main canon tho)
 
Bane isn't that much stronger than Bats, we list him as 9-A+ for a reason, currently his base level is considered equal to Batman in AP (keep in mind literally any kind of upscaling from DC 9-A+ will bring you to 8-C), which means any fight with him is a pure clash of skill (and additional context). I'd say he's comparable to Batman in skill, if a smidge lower.

Aye, so basically Bane is smarter and more skilled (not that vi is unskilled combat-wise, bane is just more skilled) while Vi is significantly physically stronger, slightly more powerful and durable, and has the benefit of experience against people who use his brand of tech
 
I think Vi likely takes it. While not as skilled as Bane she is physically stronger and understands what Bane's deal is. While I'm sure Bane would try to protect his Venom supply, he won't be able to with Vi having way higher LS and she should be able to unplug him and depower him, leaving it as only a matter of time until she takes him down.
