Guest deojusto Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 Predator. With no prep time and no knowledge of the predators, Batman won't be looking for something that's invisible. Not to mention that his peripheral vision can't be great with the mask. Comics batman would stand a chance, but Nolan's batman is constrained by realism.

Not to mention that his peripheral vision can't be great with the mask. Fair enough. Of course, I don't think that the peripheral vision would be a problem, seeing as the inability to turn his head was fixed with the suit from Dark Knight Rises. Comics batman would stand a chance, but Nolan's batman is constrained by realism. Well, the crossovers of Batman vs Predator are not canon. So they don't hold any water as far as debates go unless the debate in question allows them to be in use. But in a straight up fight, Batman had been bludgeoned by a Yautja. And that was the first meeting of their fight against a Blooded, and in the second comic, he almost got done in by a Young Bad Blood. -Rakai'Thwei Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xLEGACYx Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 as much as I like Bats, he loses to a Pred with no prep and extensive knowledge of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest skadoosh Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 They should have equal knowledge of each other. The Yautja having experience with humans is a pretty big edge, seeing as the Nolanverse Batman is far more human than the comic book version. Other than that, the Yautja would win anyway, as this Batman has nothing in this fight to even it out. And Batman could turn his head for the first time in The Dark Knight, not Rises.

RakaiThwei Posted December 7, 2012 Author Share Posted December 7, 2012 as much as I like Bats, he loses to a Pred with no prep and extensive knowledge of them. Mm'kay. And bear in mind, this is a low ranking Predator in this fight, so I tried to keep things relatively even without the more powerful weapons like the plasma caster. Think of the Yautja in this fight relatively close to or equal to Diablo Predator from the first Predator movie. They should have equal knowledge of each other.

I don't think that the United States Governement would be willing to allow a vigilante like Batman confidential files on extraterrestrials. Or anyone else for that matter, that's just common sense. Also, I am kind of treating this similarly to how the first Batman vs Predator, but if you want a story then you'll be disappointed to know that I haven't come up with one. The closest would be to that of this: Also, I gave Batman the timed explosive launcher. I had to Wiki a bit on the Nolanverse Batman. -Rakai'Thwei Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesnt really have anything that can put the Pred down. His martial arts wont help him in a straight up fight. Also a simple knife was able to pierce his armor so the dlex blades could cut straight through, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would've thought that the Timed Explosive Launcher would've provided some leveling here and there. Was I wrong in assuming that would've perhaps helped out a bit? -Rakai'Thwei Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest skadoosh Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 It doesn't matter what the Government would do, this fight is just a Rumble, it doesn't need a story, and regardless, Batmans lack of knowledge on Yautja unbalances the fight. And there are several other reasons, stated above, that unbalance this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He also doesnt carry it around all the time due to its size. In the newest movie he has an EMP gun also but again its too big to always carry with him.

Keep in mind that the fight is happening in sewer. So logically, there would be perhaps some gas pipes which more or less could be used by either side to deal explosive damage-- though considering the closed in proximity of the sewer tunnels, it'd be a gambit for either side to wanting to make. Concerning Batman's No-Kill policy, I would think that might just apply to only human beings. -Rakai'Thwei Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His training and skills become almost void here. His stikes wont do a whole lot and his knowledge of the human anatomy could get him in some trouble if he gets to close and tries a nerve strike and gets stunned when it doesnt work.

And here I was thinking that a low ranking Yautja would've at least been a bit more fair than putting Nolan's Batman up against a Veteran or an Elder. To me, putting Batman up against someone like say Wolf, Scarface or even Dachande would've been a stomp. So I just assumed that a lower ranking, lesser skilled and modestly experienced Hunter, perhaps roughly to Diablo's level of skill and experience would've perhaps been a bit more fairer. Seems I was wrong. -Rakai'Thwei Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest bigballerju Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 I think people are forgetting Batman's league of shadows training. Batman by the end of Batman Begins knows to be aware of his surroundings. Batman will know something is there and that his opponent could strike from anywhere. Predator will get the jump on Batman but he won't kill him in the first strike nor end this fight quickly. Nolan's Batman is fast and skilled enough to keep up with the Predator in battle. Batman let Ra's Al Ghul die, shot the driver of Talia's truck knowing full well it would get her killed, even though Catwoman killed he didn't say much to her about it, Hell he didn't say anything when she killed Bane, and more. Batman's suit by the time of Dark Knight Rises had multiple upgrades. The fight could go either way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indolent Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 Kinda in the Predator's favor but that's normally how fights go, either if or in either side's favor. *shrugs* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

corvette1710 Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 Actually BBJ, Batman's outclassed as quite basically the blunt force trauma of a Class 4 full-strength hit would mush his insides. Imagine getting hit by a motorcycle at twenty miles per hour, or something akin to that. And then imagine it's directed right at your stomach.

G4hardcore Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 Batman should have that handy dandy sonar sight from The Dark Knight to counteract the Yautja's invisibility. I mean, there's always a chance that Batman will know the Predator is there anyway, what with all the ninja stealth training, but it's a bit of a stretch. Just a bit. Corvette, nice visual! I hurled a little from the mere thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its just after watching him get pummeled by bane the first time, I dont see him beating a Pred after the first encounter here.
