Never said Jericho doesn't outskill Slade. I have only said that the difference it relatively small.
Okay. This is wrong. Jericho holds a solid skill edge here. How many times do I have to say this?
Slade and Balor were agreed upon to be roughly even in skill, and Jericho has a solid skill edge on Balor, therefore Jericho holds a solid skill edge here.
thats not just a "mouthed" rumor, he got into a direct fight with Batman and matched him, he was ultimately bested by the Dark Knight but still held him own in a CQC fight against him. Batman Due to over a decade of fighting crime in Gotham City, Bruce is an exceptional hand-to-hand combatant and martial artist, which led him to having a reputation of, as described by
Barry Allen, a "total badass" as Batman, Barry also noting that not even with Oliver Queen's combat skills he would compare himself to Batman, implying that Bruce's combat skills are superior to Oliver's
Dude, this is nothing compared to Jericho's skill at all. Did you see what I just listed??? And especially since Deathstroke was bested by Batman here, just puts the nail in the coffin. Jericho holds a solid skill gap here.
what opening? Slade can easily get back from Jericho and has insane knife throwing skills to keep Jericho at bay, He was also able to throw a knife into a guard's back, killing him instantly.
Pretty sure Jericho is far more skilled than a guard. Plus, doesn't Jericho need his back turned in order to do this? This makes no sense whatsoever. Jericho's skill and IR has this covered.
yes, totally, Slade is gonna draw the blade right in front of Jericho. yah no thats completely unlikely, Slade is a genius in combat so if he loses his Katana, he'll quickly resort to getting back and throwing daggers as Jericho from afar which well leave him more then enough time to pull the combat knife out which he can do in an incredibly short amount of time or yknow try to get his Katana back where ever it is thrown and even if he doesn't get that time, Slade is just as skilled without his Katana, being able to beat Green Arrow in CQC someone who was trained by Slade himself.
Once again, Slade is not on the level of Jericho in terms of skill. Jericho is hitting a Codebreaker the moment he finds any kind of opening. Plus, Jericho will have no problem dodging Jericho's daggers.
"Slade just doesn't have the skill" is complete underplay here, Slade is incredibly skilled nor is he gonna be incredibly behind Jericho even without his Blade. he has plenty of options hell Jericho's one option is the Code Breaker which could be predicted by Slade insane intelligence being able to create extremely efficient plans for combat, infiltration, and destruction even at a great disadvantage or with few resources. was capable of tactically outsmarting the also highly skilled tactician Oliver Queen for the majority of their conflict, making him one of the very few to ever outsmart Oliver.
you are the only person here who is completely underestimating Slade's skill, hell im not even saying Slade is more skilled then Jericho just that he can keep up enough to be completely shit stomped in Skill.
Holy shit. Deathstroke is going to have a far harder time here landing a hit than Jericho when it comes to CQC. Also to assume Jericho's only way to end the fight is the Codebreaker is completely false. Once Jericho gets Slade in a hold it's GG from there. Slade's only win con is weapons,
which we have debunked so many times it's legit getting frustrating at this point.
My argument is based on Slade quite clearly having the range and weapon combat advantage in the fight. Your last point doesn't even try to debate any of my points.
Which we have debunked in not only this thread, but in
literally every other matchup Jericho had in this tourney. Jericho literally beat someone with poisons. He also beat someone with a sword, which is similar to Deathstroke. How many times do I have to state this???
Guys, Slade's arguments are simply way more convincing. It's not that your arguments are being ignored.
This is coming from the same guy that said "Deathstroke stomps" without giving any reasoning, and then just voting? Everyone who has voted for Jericho has given solid reasoning, while you just voted (and guaranteed the reason you chose Salde was the exact same reason Me, Pika, and Vin debunked so many times already). Please just stop.
ahh yes my fault, I didn't realize Slade is gonna stand there like a moron after losing his main weapon and let himself get him by a code breaker.
Jericho's going to be right in front of Slade's face. Jericho's hitting that Codebreaker.
These arguments were the same arguments everyone else made in every single matchup Jericho has been in this tourney so far, and Jericho ended up beating them all. We're sick and tired of debunking the same exact points stated since the beginning. It is so ******* annoying. Please come up with other reasoning's other than weaponry to prove that Slade would win this. And if you say something about skill, you're wrong, as Jericho holds a solid edge in that department. Add IR on to that, and you got a tough ass opponent to hit.
Plus, Jericho's IR works offensively and defensively, so Jericho can legit counter Slade's moves into a Codebreaker, as well instinctively dodge Slade's moves.
Sorry, but these Deathstroke arguments are not convincing me at all to vote for him.
