Bakugo knows Killian can regenerate and heat up, Killian knows Bakugo's hands release explosions.

Katsuki Bakugou: AP and Dura are 3 tons

Aldrich Killian (Marvel Cinematic Universe): AP and Dura are 2.39 tons

Speed is equalised

Both are in character but are willing to kill.

Starting distance is 50 meters.

Bakugou: 7 (ElixirBlue, Kingofwolves999, DragonEmperor23, KingEzran, Ciruno Fortes, Arrogant Schmuck, sora and buff riku)

Killian: 6 (Ionliosite, Zark2099, Cropfist, Schnee One, GojiBoyForever, Maruishimaryishi)

Inconclusive:
 
This means..........Nothing

I'm saying that I don't believe Aldrich has a significant regen to matter against Bakugo.
 
By using an example where he exploded beyond his regen after tanking iron man's suit to the face

Not a good example.
 
Remove AConfusedPerson's vote as it is literally just "Incon" with o reasoning whatsoever.

Pepper oneshotting Killian literally means nothing. He was straight up a skeleton with some flesh sticking on it at that point. It's basically equivalent to kicking someone after a plane crash.

Also, yeah, Killian FRA. That regen is not impressive, but damn does it have a good rate.
 
2:27 Killian's death.

Eh, not impressed by the explosion Killian died from. There wasn't even any backlash shockwave for Pepper. It looks around the same level of force by a casual explosion from Bakugo, not Bakugo's explosion against Shoto, Deku or escaping from the villains.

Bakugo FRA
 
Killian FRA as well, regen should eventually give him the win considering this was a dude who easily destroyed 2.39 ton armors as well as tanking one too the face and being fine.

The explosion that killed him was also done after he took a suicide armor to the face not even 2 minutes prior, so "This explosion killed him so Y can do it" is Bunk.

On top of this, Bakugo has only building level striking strength, so he's absolutely screwed against CQC
 
But speed is equalized, where that feat speed wasn't equalized. And Bakugo would be firing them off at lot closer distance.
 
But wait, why dodging a laser beam point blank equal to dodging an explosion/point blank?
 
Bakugo's explosions have more aoe than a repulsor blast so Killian can't dodge them like he did those. If he tried to dodge like that he'd get blown away instantly, the force behind Bakugo's explosions pushes back people on his own tier with ease. Bakugo uses explosions in close range so Killian cannot approach him without getting blown up repeatedly, and his regen is not perfect.

Bakugo also has far better ranged options than Killian with his AP shots, and he can blind him with stun grenade. Bakugo has pseudo flight and ridiculously better mobility than Killian, idk how he's even supposed to come near him. Bakugo literally just keeps shooting explosions at Killian until he starts damaging his vital organs, or stun grenades and blows him up, likely his head since Bakugo loves to blow those up. Since Bakugo is also going to be warming up during this fight, when his gauntlets get full and he lets them off Killian is going to be severely injured and need to take time to regen, which Bakugo won't give him. Howitzer Impact probably does this too considering it's a build up of his sweat as well.

Keep in mind that Bakugo's explosions do inflict burns and produce heat that damages people on his tier, and Killian after taking the suicide explosion couldn't walk straight, was in pain, wasn't healing correctly and was nearly dead.

Since they both know each other's abilities, Bakugo probably outplans Killian as well considering he's a battle genius and Killian is more a science guy with martial arts training and enhancements. I don't think there was ever any indication that Killian was a prodigy on the battle field like he was off the field, would like clarification on his thinking skills during battle. His cqc is better no doubt due to contesting with iron man but it matters little if he can't even approach his opponent, and is getting outthough every step.
 
Killian doesn't really think super hard during battle his moves are straightforward the only noteworthy thing is he attacks with intent to mutilate or kill and he targets weak points like the kidneys
 
I don't exactly remember Bakugou doing any lateral thinking either, and Killian straight up outclasses him in Melee range
 
Bakugou can reach tens of meters with explosions and regularly tries to maintain that distance in his fights against opponents also Bakugo does use faints to mess with his opponents in fights he's done it to Deku, Todoroki, Awase and Kamakiri.
 
Killian can't get into melee range to outclass him. He gets thrown back by explosions every time or is hit with stun grenade. Or Bakugo flies into the air away from him and spams AP shots. Or he tosses some of his grenades around.

Bakugo does lateral thinking in nearly every battle he's been in, he just doesn't vocalize his thoughts. He comes up with plans in seconds as opposed to Deku's somewhat long term thinking process, taking into account the abilities of everyone that could possibly be involved to get maximum payoff. He's consistently called a prodigy and genius on the battle field by pro heroes like All Might and Eraserhead. Deku spent his entire life analyzing Bakugo's fighting style, and he still got outclassed because of how sporadic and intelligent Bakugo is when fighting.
 
Nice matchup. This is gonna be a pretty long match, but in the end, as long as Bakugou has higher AP and dura (possibly stamina too), Bakugou wins.
 
Like Creative says, Bakugou is extremely good at fighting and takes advantage of his explosions to move towards his opponents in directions they can't predict.

Aldrich by scaling is stronger, but not by much.

But eh, Bakugo FRA
 
I wanted someone to address the regen here, as Killian bumrushing Bakugou is a valid tactic given the rate we're talking about here (i.e. Fully recovered from snapped arms in a matter of seconds), alongside the AP and Dura advantage Aldrich has over him.
 
If Killian rushes him, Bakugo flies away, blows him back with an explosion or blinds him with stun grenade. Bakugo can repeat this as long as he wants.

Also where does Killian have better AP and Dura? OP credits him being 2.39 tons, and I can't find any calculations on either his or Iron Man's profiles that put him over Bakugo's 3 tons. Heck I can't even find the calc that puts him at 2.39 tons. I might be blind.

Also Aldrich's regen seems pretty bad against explosions, or really anything that isn't just blunt force considering that's how he was both critically injured so much he couldn't regenerate, and how he died. Most extremists seem to be able to survive explosions, but they always have some serious damage they need to regenerate from afterwards. Killian is going to be taking countless explosions for the hours that Bakugo can fire them for until he either gets knocked out or dies.

Also, did anyone notice how weird the extremists durability is? Repulsor rays seem to one shot nearly every extremist in the movie despite them being able to get punched by Iron Man suits and shrug it off. Even a fodder repulsor ray from a barely working palm ko'd an extremist for a long time, and Killian was dodging them like they were his kryptonite or something, yet he can get decked in the face several times without needing to regen?
