Name the ones that did not blow up in his face. Brother I? His plan to stop all organized crime in Gotham?
It does not matter if they always blow up in his face. They gave him a tool set that's just stupid.
Read the books don't believe the hype.
I have read the books. He has an absurd power set for a "regular" human.

This isn't even a good match up. Do Iron Man vs Batman

These things should be called "Batman Fans vs Cap America fans". They would make more sense.
Before that he hit Magneto with Jupiter.
Didn't Karate Kid hang with Superboy? Seems like comics 'bend' what actual humans can do.
That depends on which legion you are talking about.

Doesn't read OPs, especially not his own
Im kinda shocked at the people on gaf of all places that dont know about death battle, none of hte battles are popularity contests, they do everything by research in statistics and then do animations(that doesnt necessarily determine who would win, just for the flashiness)

Has there been a Yoshi vs Epona one?
That is debatable.

With what statistics does Batman win in a fist fight with Captain America, where Batman has a small set of gadgets and Cap has far above peak strength, speed, reflexes and durability and his indestructible shield that absorbs all kinetic energy?
Batman couldn't land a solid punch, much less win the fight w/o some prep of the battlefield ahead of time. The way they presented the battle, Batman clearly took on some super human strength and durablity of his own.
Cap should've won hands down. The only way Batman wins this fight is with the element of surprise, the cover of darkness and a shit load of gadgets meant to incapacitate and immobilize Cap, but first disarming him of his shield. Otherwise it was lost before it even started.

Cap is not supposed to be as strong as Bane. Bane is far, far stronger.
The supersoldier serum enhanced his strengh, but it doesnt made him superhuman strong. There was a time, Cap gained actual real superpowers, but he was depowered at some point again.
Captain America vs Batman WITH NO DRUGS.
If people are pissed at Death Battle, wait until they find out that Master Chief lost to Captain America in Super Power Beat Down.

I think cap could take batman in a fist fight, but he doesn't say he'd eventually lose, he says its conceivable.
I'm not convinced this is a slaughter for Cap, I could see this battle going either way. It's always weird how people like to emphasize bruce's martial prowess when it's not his strongest asset. There's at least 4 people that aren't super powered that are a better fighter than Bruce is in the DCU (Bronze Tiger, Shiva, Karate Kid, Cassandra Cain). Bruce gets clowned usually when he fights someone pound for pound that has enhanced strength. Bruce's best hope is stealth/laying a trap/exploiting a weakness if he can find one chemically with the SSS.
oh, there was a thread dedicated to it. it was fun
Indeed. There research was a failure in the Superman and Goku video as well as the Link vs Cloud video. (Link winning).
I like Link better than Cloud but even I know Link winning that is complete BS.

Batman would find a way to disable Stark's suit lol
Halo armor on par with Ironman, I couldn't even.
Batman and Stark are on completely different levels when it comes to tech. All the cool stuff they have Lucius Fox come up with in the Bat books wouldn't even be worth mentioning in Iron Man. DC is more grounded with their geniuses and tech stuff. Equivalent stuff to DC's Mother Boxes (which is pretty much portrayed as godly tech) is made up by regular Earth heroes like Iron Man, Ant Man, and Mr Fantastic in the Marvel U.
and then throwing the whole halo universe at cap. it was a fun time.
Cap saved the whole universe by surrendering. MC can't top that.
Pretty interesting what each universe choices to focus on. For years the height of power armor was Rocket Reds, which is just sad.

We need to expand beyond comics.
Where's my warhammer space marine vs captain america, or the emperor vs hulk.

I really don't want to get into that argument for like the 1,000th time so I'll just say that "depends who's writing Superman". XD

Batman was ready to run off to Apokolips to rescue Robin's dead body and got stopped by the Justice League pretty quickly (though he did do an emergency transport back to the Watchtower). No prep time, just Batman being pissed off. So he does fail sometimes and rarely does so as a result of being majorly pissed.

They should be called "Salt," one syllable, and apt. Like that Beef series about rap feuds.

Batman pretty much loses his top whenever its about Dick.
Forever Evil pissed off a lot of Batfans.
Yes, we "all know".
Cap is nothing but an Frankenstein experiment gone right. Batman is all natural.
They're actually used Leonardo from TMNT twice - that being said, once was against Battletoads, and the other against the other turtles.
Supes does have the advantage of quite a few more becades of stories and attempts at doing ever more impressive things than Goku's decade or so of canon.
As for the actual video, the battle was kind of short (although it makes sense for Bats to keep it short, Cap seems likely to outlast him) and using an explosive in the shield was neat.
They seem to have left out that Cap does have some under-emphasized history with guns (which Bats tends to refuse to use), and probably a bit more experience avoiding gunfire thanks to surviving war scenarios, which might count for something.

I wonder what Batmanbuster armor would look like? Maybe the armor would cast a holographic projection of Dr. Thomas Wayne.

Sounds like someone missed the "master chief vs captain America" thread

It isn't, because Cap's damage soak is ridiculous. There is no way a handful of strikes from batman land him on his ass.
Keep in mind cap isn't wearing spandex, that's chain mail and advanced Kevlar.

Not really at least in Death battles case . They do a analysis of the characters then determine who wins . Their are some where the least popular characters won like Spawn vs Kratos or something like Spiderman vs Batman.
