VITAL ORGANS. CYBERNETIC JOINT REPLACEMENTS ON RIGHT SHOULDER AND LEFT KNEE)

SAN DIEGO ZOO
Doreen Green (aka Squirrel Girl) has recieved an anonymous message asking her to meet a concerned individual at the San Diego Zoo. She has been instructed to come alone. Should any squirrels be seen in her company the person she is meeting will not show. Upon arrival she is surprised to be greeted by Cyberwolf.
"Hello Miss Green. As you can see I survived the trouble you coould not deign to assist me in resolving. I do feel I owe you an apology though for flinging you from the castle ramparts following our last meeting. However, you were the aggressor in that situation. You illegally entered my employer's home with intent to commit bodily harm on him. In essence, you were an evil, evil woman doing that. Now though, I plan to be the villian. You left me to die, now you die!0 -

SHANG-CHI & TASKMASTER
VS.
RAMBO & JUDGE DREDD28rambo.jpg&sa=X&ei=sAGZTcKTDoq_0QHiv4j-Cw&ved=0CAQQ8wc&usg=AFQjCNGMnUyzG9dPwpg-E78P_LHScznEmg)
LOCATION:
PHILADELPHIA
John Rambo has been recruited to help a strange fellow from the future return to his own time. They have traveled to Philly in the hopes of using a famous experiment's results to send Mr. Dredd home. Unbeknownst to them however they are being pursued by two individuals who wish to acquire Dredd's equipments for their own reasons. Taskmaster is hoping for some new technology to add to his arsenal while Shang-Chi is freelancing for the British intelligence community who wsih to acquire the equipment themselves.
Notes:
1. Rambo is carrying an Uzi with two sapre 32 round magazines and a Browning Hi-Power pistol with one spare mag. He is also carrying his knife
2. Dredd has a Lawgiver pistol loaded with armor piercing rounds, and an automatic shotgun loaded with flechette rounds. He is wearing his standard street Judge uniform.
3. Taskmaster is carrying his bow, sword, and a .45 with spare magazines0 -
Ooh this is a toughie.
I really really really want to put up I Am The Law again.
But if we are to take all four of those guys in peak condition and with the weapons Wolfie stipulated, then I am struggling to see anything other than a Taskmaster/Shang Chi win.
Tasky has all the experience, thanks to his ability to mimic perfectly, with pretty much every type of firearm be it past, present, and future. He is also an expert on pretty much every fighting style, and pretty much every non firearm weapon he has seen used either irl or through footage.
Through in the fact that he has taken the best skills that Captain America, Bullseye, Wolverine, Shang Chi, Black Panther, Punisher, various X-Men, Avernger, Fantastic Four, Heroes For Hire, and literally dozens of other highly skilled Marvel characters are capable of, and it is hard to see him lose this, especially with a fighter like Shang Chi alongside him.
Rambo does not come close to Takmaster or Shang Chi, regardless of how tough and highly trained Rambo is.
I think Tasky would observe Rambo and quickly realise that Rambo has nothing that the Punisher does not have, meaning Tasky is able to take him.
Dredd is on a level above Rambo, hell he makes Rambo look like a newborn in terms of toughness alone. Dredd has fought everything from human foes to supernatural foes and won.
I think it all boils down to something that Wolverine said whilst being in a power dampening prison along with Beast and hundreds of supervillains. Basically that when powers are taken out of the equation, it is the man with the best skills that rule the roost.
Tasky is regarded as one of the best on the entire Marvel Universe when it comes to armed or unarmed combat and generally cannot be defeated by anyone without superpowers.
He has very few defeats to his name, and fewer still from those without powers. Moonknight is probably the only non superpowered Marvel character to beat him soundly, simply because the Marc Spector persona is pretty masochistic in style at times, and can adapt his style to being one that wants to take pain rather than win.
Dredd and Rambo are tough guys with super training who can take pain, but neither have the mindset to attack without wanting to win.
With much regret I am going to have to go against Joe Dredd, and give the win to the team that contains the guy who is very close to being the best non powered combatant in the Marvel Universe.
See you on the streets Joe.
Tasky and Chi for the win.
But I am still getting a bit of Anthrax in.:p

Task-Chi take it. Moving right along.......BATTLE 2
RONIN & TWO-GUN KID
VS.
RED HOOD & PUNISHER
LOCATION:
BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS
Frank Castle has been forced out of NYC by the actions of a new heroic duo intent on stopping him. While on the run he has found himself in a partnership with someone who shares his approach to dealing with the criminal element. Choosing to base themselves temporarily in Boston they soon discover Castle's pursuers have followed them there and are not in the mood to take prisoners.
Notes:
1. Punisher is carrying a Colt Python with two speedloaders, Ka-Bar knife, and two fragmentation grenades
2. Red Hood is carrying his kris knife, modified batarangs, and a katana
3. Ronin(Clint Barton) is using melee weapons for this match, and has shuriken as well
4. Two Gun is carrying his twin Colts with multiple spare rounds, lariat, and a cut-down double barreled shotgun with 10 rounds of buckshot.0 -
How many fights has Two Gun popped up in now?
Very easy fight this time in terms of picking the winners.
Red Hood would take out the Clint Barton version of Ronin easily enough. It really would take the Echo (Maya Lopez) version to trouble the Red Hood.
Punisher against Two Gun is a crazy mismatch.
Red Punisher for a very very easy win.0 -

Have to go with Taskmaster winning this one. He is already one of the best non superpowered fighters on the planet. He already has beaten both the Punisher and Shang Chi in the past, with Shang Chi being beaten handily by Tasky a number of times. He has already beaten or at the very least matched foes that would be Batman level or above in the Marvel Universe, and whilst he does not know where Arcade's traps are, he does have one big advantage.
He has been to Arcade's Murderworld more than once in the past and will have an idea what to expect.
Red Hood may be thrown off slightly in Murderworld as he may think that there is a Joker link to the place and his mindset may switch to being prepared for the Joker or traps in the style of which the Joker would set.
Shang Chi's stealth approach may work against him as Murderworld has always, right back to the very first one in the late 1970's, been set up to counter the abilities of who gets put in it. Stealth abilities have rarely fared well in it.
Punisher has firepower with him, but Murderworld is not somewhere you can just blow the walls down and walk out. Hercules, Colossus, Cyclops, Storm, Spiderman, Doctor Doom, Nighcrawler, Wolverine, The Thing, and Iron Man are just a small number of super powered beings whose powers were tested to their limits inside Murderworld.
Also Murderworld has a very low rate of non super powered survivors.
We have four humans, with one capable of matching the very best the other three are capable of as well as still having all the other skills and abilities that he synced in the past. Also Tasky is generally at his best against highly trained, highly skilled fighters so Red Hood is in a world of hurt against him.
Nope I defo cannot see beyond Tasky in this. In a human versus human fight there are very few on the planet that can beat him.
Taskmaster to be top dog.0 -

Hope I'm not butting in
But... Kess kinda spelt it out 
This is the one place Frank's tactical control skills aren't going to be much use. Plenty of traps, but none of them his
Whereas Taskie will just take things (relatively) slow and steady - a stroll in the park, if you will
In Murderworld's kill-or-be-killed environment I don't see anyone teaming up temporarily to offer TM a serious combined threat of being overwhelmed. Unless Red got incredibly lucky I see only Frank as the only truly credible individual threat to Task and there's an unfortunate track record to contend with there... and Taskie on the defensive can handle both Frank and Murderworld together. Frank... might be just that little bit overeager to try and settle past scores with him... only a tiny fraction, but in Murderworld, that could be enough.
There's a reason Arcade sent him 0 -

The votes have been tallied and verified by independent auditor weasels. The victor of The Twisted Tag Tournament is:TASKMASTER
Following his escape from Murderworld Taskmaster has just one last thing to do. Finding Arcade in his command center he shoots him in the head.
