#deadstroke isn’t a batman villain but i was thinking about his combat whatever

[5-7-9]

Personally, I think Harvey Dent should be compelled to boxing and guns because of toxic masculinity and fear/safety. Y’know America’s law about “the right to bear arms” and i bet his dad would have one, and he found it as a kid, and maybe he decided to teach him how to wield one. Anyways, i think he’d take up boxing before because it helps let out his stress, that’s why he’s always resorting to fists first. Plus plus, Twotwo must’ve gotten into street fights, with the whole bullying(?) and where he lives. Harvey wouldn’t hold the memories, but maybe his body would remember subconsciously.

Speaking of which, i know Harley can do gymnastics, but i’ve seen hardcore epic rollerblading so she’s seriously missing out on the potential of fighting on wheels. Might be hindering but its more fun that way.

There’s too many characters that I don’t believe can fight (Ives, Crane, Eddie) so I’m just gonna talk about the ones that can.

Selina isn’t a fighter, she’s a runner and escape artist, but she’s proficient in a whip and has claws to scratch. She can fight long enough for an opening.

Waylon could look really cool if he used a tail for stability and just whipped it at people, it also helps to distract by splashing water. He doesn’t need much skill since his strength is enough, but he just fully charges at people, and he bites.

Bane is obviously based after wrestling, but he’s had enough prison truffles that I bet he knows a thing or two about general brawling. I’m not sure his body can do it the same as before his huge honking muscles got in the way, but the skill is there. Also, he usually tries planning his fights in advance, he doesn’t take kindly towards unexpected attacks.

Talia obviously uses swords, but there’s lots of creative ways she can utilize it without killing. Plus, martial arts. Constant training smooths out her skills so she should be quick and look elegant and professional. She’s mostly been taught ways to kill and how to avoid getting killed, so she’d actually be surprised slightly against non lethal attacks.

Clayface doesn’t really have a style but i’ll give him points for generally having an ability that’s obscures people physically. Sometimes it’s creative, most times just throwing shit.

Sionis gets the usual mob boss, as in he knows his fucking guns. At least i think thats what mob bosses do, but i’m not sure.

Deathstroke is all professional, which means he has zero original style. He’s learned from the military and assassins so it’s your usual deadly fighter. He does wield dual swords for some reason? If it’s a katana again i will ignore it. Also i have no clue wtf a reverse grip is for so, i guess that’s something? Even if i don’t know what that something is??? He’s characterized as one of the best mercenaries, so i guess he’s physically unbeatable idk.
