MCU TA - Round 1 - Steve Rogers/Captain America (18) vs Drax (47)

[Deadpulse]

VS

 

Come one come all to the tournament arc to end all tournament arcs - MCU characters. For those of you who partook in the Best TV Show of All Time contest, this will run very similarly. 

Please keep in mind this is NOT a popularity contest. This is a who is the strongest/would win in a fight contest. Please do not consider powerset/abilities from the comics, strictly keep to what has be shown in the MCU.

Drax basically has similar powers to Cap, just from a more natural source, right? I feel like strengths/limits are poorly established for some of the alien characters. Gamora/Drax/Nebula/etc. Hard to tell if like, Drax is just a normal specimen for his race, or a super powerful or really well-trained version. But he seems to have similar powers to Cap, as best as I can tell, at which point I'd definitely give the edge to Cap for tactics and strategy.

I do know Drax's origins in the comic, but I don't think any of that is remotely relevant based on what we've seen in the MCU.

Captain America vs who? I don’t see anyone. 

[thrILL!]

Drax is all bark no bite. 

[Malfatron]

Someone that doesnt know modern references vs someone that doesnt get metaphors

should be a good match. Drax feels more ruthless and Capt doesnt fight with too much urgency

I say Drax

He is staying very still.

Dax has the strength of Spiderman. And durability... Remember in GOTG2 when bounced behind the ship through the forest and all. And loved it.

I dont see Cap being able to do enough damage before taking a toll himself.

[Mox]

Drax is too dumb to win.

[THE DUKE]

Drax is tougher/stronger, but Steve is smarter and tough enough.

[Beck Bristow]

I'd actually like to see this fight. I don't think I have an opinion either way. Drax is physically superior and not useless from a fighting strategy standpoint, but I think Rogers will keep upright long enough to give himself a chance.

Does Steve get to use Mjolnir?

Say you were the smartest, toughest human to ever exist.

Then we went to the zoo. And I pushed you into the guerilla exhibit.

Youre screwed.

Silverback gorilla can lift 4,000 lb (1,810 kg) on a bench press

Basically the avg of 20 humans. While Drax can lift the avg of 10 Silverbacks.

Give the human the tools he needs (like a BFG) then i'll take the human.

Drax has all the tools and everything Cap can obtain and then a whole lot more. Just by all the planets hes been. He chooses when to use them. He just prefers not to. Look how quickly he defeated Nebula when he actually chose to use a tool.
