The Scenario

The villainess known as Roulette smiled to herself as the arena of yelling, screaming villains around her grew louder and louder, chanting for the beginning of the main bout that evening. The smell of liquor and sweat filled air as the woman watched from high atop her secured observation booth. She'd gone through a lot of trouble to secure these particular duelers and she was looking forward to a good, dirty fight... especially from these two.

At one side of the arena, a man in an orange and blue costume stood, slowly taking in the area around him. His bionic eye scanned the area, but he still didn't see any way out of his present predicament... any other way but to fight his way out. And, being as he was Deathstroke the Terminator, that was fine by him. Slade Wilson popped his neck as he slowly walked toward the center of the ring.

The man on the other side mimicked his movement inward. Wade Wilson, alias Deadpool, was never one to shirk from the necessity of an occasional fight... and if a fight to the death was what it took to get out of this place, then he'd be more than happy to oblige. Cracking his knuckles, he stopped near the edge of a circle in the middle of the arena at the exact same time as his opponent.

A feminine voice projected out over the arena caught the attention of both men.

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to tonight's title bout, pitting two of our own against the other in mortal combat: Deathstroke the Terminator..."

Deathstroke cocked an eyebrow as a mixture of cheers and jeers filled his ears.

"...and Deadpool!" Deadpool's mask effectively negated any expression and, in all honesty, the Merc with the Mouth could care less about another fight.

"Tonight, only one of these men shall walk away alive! No weapons, no tricks... just hand-to-hand combat to the death. And now, without further ado... the Main Event!"

The cheers grew deafening as the combatants eyed one another.

"We could get outta this," Deathstroke offered.

"Fuck that!" Deadpool said, taking a step back, readying a kick. "Let's just do this, you fuckin' pussy!"

"Alright," Deathstroke said, taking a fighting stance himself. "But don't think I'll go easy on you, son..."

"Oooh... I'm shaking..." Deadpool sneered.

Then, at once, both men launched their attacks, much to the delight of the myriad of spectators surrounding them...

NOTE! - The author of this week's fight knows very little about the characters Deathstroke, Deadpool, and Roulette. Any writing of them out of character is completely accidental, as the author has never read many (if any) books they were featured in. Thank you for your patience!

I just don't see a contest here. Wade's healing factor won't help much against Slade (Slade Wilson. Wade Wilson. C'mon, Liefeld, you weren't even trying there. [yuh huh] ), this is key: "Slade Wilson is capable of using 90% of his brain capacity, making him a master tactician. "

Slade's taken down Bats. Let me say this again: Slade's taken down Batman. He took down the Titans. He would have no trouble with Deadpool.

Slade mops the floor with "Wade," then goes after Morrie's "anti-Batman," Prometheus and does him in as well.

That may be true, but Deadpool's taken down Wolverine in full berserker rage mode.

Again, he took down WOLVERINE.

Wade massacres crews of well-trained killers without breaking a sweat.

I think this is a close match. I'd even dare say Deadpool could win this one if he takes his opponent seriously.

Deathstroke's also gone toe to toe Wolverine. Check out X-Men/Titans by Claremont and Simonson. A human leading squads of Parademons.

This match is pretty even, because each character is a master tactician. Deadpool was able to beat the Taskmaster (a man who by only seeing you can learn all your moves, and who posseses the knowledge of all the Avenger's characters) by outthinking him, he has beat Wolverine, and shitloads of others.
But of course, Deathstroke is immortal, which makes the whole thing kinda pointless.

That's been written out.


There is no real debate, here.

Deadpool has beaten Wolverine (when and where exactly?).

So has Slade. While he was at it, he took Colossus, too.

Deadpool has taken down dozens of men, along with the Taskmaster.

Slade has taken down dozens of men, along with the entire fucking Titans (Wolvman/Perez era).

And Batman, as well.

Deadpool tried to make friends with the Punisher.

Slade physically nailed Lois Lane to the floor. He impaled Superman's girlfriend with his sword.

That's what you call 'balls'.

I mean, really, there is simply no contest, whatsoever.

Deathstroke is the best.

I didn't know that. I only knew that he knew that I knew that he knew that I knew. Not that you knew that he knew nor that I knew that he knew. You know?

Based on the voting results, that's my conclusion as well. [...rassamnfrackin...]
I can honestly say I've never(until recently) heard of Deathstroke. The similarites between both of them are a bit disturbing though.

Action Comics. About a year and a half ago. When Supes contracted Kryptonite poisoning. As the Atom raced to save him at STAR Labs, Deathstroke came to silence Encantadora (Joe Kelly's sorceress-type character, and the one who gave Kal the poisoning in the first place). Lois got in the way. He told her to move. She didn't. He slammed her to the floor, pulled his sword, and drove it straight through her left shoulder, effectively pinning her to the floor.

On a different note of a sort, I see how my initial wording can give a completely different take on the scene from just how I described it.

Freud, anyone? [wink]
