    Okay, here's where things break down for me for the Amberites. I'm *wiggles hands* on Benedict being fast enough to take on Deathstroke, simply because Post-Crisis Deathstroke has some crazy-good speedfeats. Skillwise, I'm cool with it. Endurance-wise, I'm cool with it. Strength-wise...Benedict is at least strong enough to not be overwhelmed, completely (he's in the CBPH range, I would guess, given how he picks 200+ lbs men off the ground by their belts, one-handed, and chucks them at his enemies).

    It's speed.

    I'd be comfortable at least putting Benedict in the CBPH range of speed, but Deathstroke is explicitly faster.

    There's the argument that Benedict makes a fight of it thanks to skill, at least, and being fast enough that he doesn't just get blitz/overwhelmed.

    I don't think Corwin can manage against Deathstroke, though if Benedict can actually put up a fight Corwin can to a lesser extent. And if Corwin can't, Random sure as heck can't.

    Yeah, Deathstroke can catch the Flash, so this is a blitz.























    :P

    Do you make a hashmark on your wall every time you get a Gundam pic? Is there a prize or something?

    ...also, STILL haven't looked at the calc, and it's really bugging me. Apologies.
