John was being hunted by a group with influence in all corners of the world, and the people who are sent after him are far, far more durable than anything 47's encountered (High Table special units wearing outright bullet proof armor to a ridiculous degree.), and fought them in waves while in the dark. I definitely wouldn't day 47's encounters have been "far deadlier.".
I wasn't comparing the durability of the two characters here. Anyway,
Agent 47's targets were stated to be some of the most protected people in the world, so him not being at least comparable to John Wick is an understatement. Remember that stealth is just Agent 47's schtick and is nowhere near the end of what he's capable of.
47 is all about assassination and making a quick and silent getaway. His thing isn't fighting literally armies of hitmen for weeks on end, that's John. You'd be comparing apples to oranges by comparing their circumstances to one another.
Agent 47's tactics in general not revolving around direct combat doesn't change how he is skilled and would use his skills in a 1 VS 1 matchup like this one against John Wick. I'll provide more evidence below.
also 47's location tracking is gonna be next to useless here, as Wick won't be hidinig away from 47 but instead he'll likely be the one on the offensive.
I didn't mention anything about Instinct, so I don't know why you mentioned it. Now that you mentioned it though, I should point out that it has utility even though John Wick wouldn't be hiding. In a bad situation for Agent 47, he would try avoiding John Wick and would keep track of him from far using Instinct, so he could find the perfect opening to attack him from far with no risk.
That's just him managing to not fall off a train that ain't even moving all to fast. That's not impressive, especially in comparison to Wick's fighting in a moving train which would be more difficult.
In the video I linked, Agent 47 demonstrated that, during freezing cold snowy weather, he can spend many minutes uninterruptedly sneaking through an entire heavily guarded train going at a dangerous steady pace, while performing various feats of jumping from one train car to another and climbing around the sides and top of the train, all efficiently and without breaking his usual stoical focus in the slightest. You don't think this is impressive because your standards are too high.
John can out maneuver dozens of trained Assassins on speeding high end motorcycles on a ******* horse and do shit like this.
As a child he's capable of doing acrobatics such as this.
I can
continue such as the time Wick did
this and
then this to a group of men all at the same time.
Being able flexible enough to utilize Gun-Fu, etc. Wick takes the advantage there.
That's impressive and all, as I expected from John Wick, but I think this is a close battle, not one where John Wick has the clear advantage.
First of all, again that's not a feat of acrobatics but rather a feat of parkour so not really the best argument to use here.
Plus Wick also has ways of dealing with opponents who are annoyingly agile like Zero.
Being skilled at jumping and climbing during parkour falls under acrobatics, at least in the sense the VS Battles Wiki and I mean it in. John Wick is probably better at acrobatics anyway, but I'm explaining that Agent 47 isn't a bulky robot that some people may think he is.
