Talk:Blake Belladonna vs X-23/@comment-26817192-20191211230410

This is actually a closer fight than most.

Speed (traveling): Blake takes this, though Laura isn't too far behind.

Reaction speed: Both are even, with both being able to dodge missiles, gunfire and other opponents

Agility: Blake has better mobility overall, but Laura's agility and sense will help counter any surprise attacks.

Experience: Pretty even, though i'd say Laura would have more for the fact that she was engineered as a weapon and has racked experience from being an assassin and an X-men.

Strength: Both are also even.

Durability: This is the part that kinda determines the fight. Blake's aura will allow her to heal some of Laura's wounds, but it will eventually run out. Meanwhile Laura's regeneration is superior (even better than Logan's), faster, and it doesn't run out. Plus her durability has allowed her to keep on fighting even after surviving huge explosions and being slashed beyond recognition, so she could more than likely wear Blake's aura down and open for a killing blow.

Weapons: Blake's greater variety will cause a lot of trouble for Laura, and some could even argue that she could potentially slice her in half, but that scenario is unlikekely as she would have to get close enough to do so. And one thing Laura specializes in is close-quarters combat while Blake excels more at mid-range, so if she were to get close enough, Laura could capitalize and end it in one slash to the face or the heart.

Overall, I'd say that while at the start Blake will probably dominate the fight with better mobility and more weapons and ability, most of it won't matter against Laura who will be able to dodge any gunfire Blake shoots at her, and Blake's fake out clone strategy won't work on Laura either as she can detect enemies with her sense of smell and other heightened sense. Laura's lack of a full adamantium skeleton will allow Blake to land some considerable damage, but with her superior regen and equal durability she'll be able to walk it off and keep fighting, not to mention in terms of durability and effectiveness, her adamantium claws will not be damaged by any of Blake's weapons and they can probably rip appart all of Blake's weapons as well. All Blake can really do is prolong the inevitable, while Laura will just keep on fighting until she eventually wins.

So
