alex mercer vs hancock

Challenge accepted.I thank Con for instigating this debate. I will be arguing that in a fight between Alex Mercer and Hancock, the one to win will be HANCOCK. I shall now proceed to refute my opponent's arguments.___________________________________________________________________________________Rebuttals:In the words of Con,he (Alex Mercer) can heal,mutate and change powers and can control all of the infected.Mercer's mutation can only do any good if he wants to hide in a crowd. However, if Hancock identifies him even ONCE, I'm sure it'll be very hard for Mercer to hide, because Hancock is faster and can FLY.Therefore, his mutation only helps him if he's a prey on the run from a predator. In a battle such as this one, his shapeshifting mutation is useless, at least for stealth.--------------------------hancock an super alcohol addict First of all, he is "a" super alcohol addict.Secondly, he drinks just for fun. The alcohol DOES NOT affect his powers and abilities. It only messes with his emotions.He was heavily hung over when he did this: --------------------------plus hancock never take anuything seriouslyFirstly, you spelled "anything" wrong.Secondly, he looked serious enough when he did this: Just because he jokes a lot doesn't mean he can't get serious if the situation demands it.--------------------------if alex combines him and his and his wife or sister and consume them he will win the battleThat he will, but ONLY IF he manages to consume him or his wife/sister. You said it yourself: he has an invincble skin. If his skin is IMPENETRABLE (not invincible), wouldn't Mercer FAIL to dig his claws in him, or use his whipfist, or blade, or any other powers he has?--------------------------all he can do is fly and he has an invincble skin and never gets oldThat's not all. His strength is FAR HIGHER than anything Mercer has ever shown.Mercer's best: Can lift a truck, or a DESTROYED tank, and that too, with musclemass.Hancock stopped a freight train without much effort. -------------------------- I believe I have successfully refuted all of my opponent's arguments.___________________________________________________________________________________ Comparison between Mercer and Hancock: Here are the various parameters which I believe would tilt the battle in Hancock's favour:StrengthAs I stated earlier, Hancock stopped a train with ease. He wasn't even trying hard.In the game(s), Mercer also manages to lift trucks and exploded tanks with ease, but he CANNOT lift a functional tank (APC). This clearly shows that Hancock's strength is far greater than Mercer's.--------------------------VitalityMercer almost died in a nuclear blast. He only survived because his remains floated back. This proves that MERCER IS VULNERABLE TO HEAT AND RADIATION, AND CAN BE KILLED BY COMPLETE INCINERATION.Another way to kill Mercer is to consume him. But that is out of the question since Hancock is incapable of that.Hancock is completely invulnerable to most forms of attack. In the end scene, Hancock painted a logo on the moon, which proves that HANCOCK IS IMMUNE TO SOLAR HEAT RADIATION AND CAN SURVIVE IN SPACE.--------------------------SpeedHancock can fly at supersonic speeds, while Mercer can only glide for a while. That is more than enough advantage in terms of speed.--------------------------WeaknessesAs stated by me earlier, Mercer is vulnerable to heat and radiation. He is also susceptible to biological weapons, as amply demonstrated by Capt. Robert Cross. Hancock is completely invulnerable. His only weakness is his wife. They both steadily lose all their powers as their proximity increases.However, it would be extremely difficult for Mercer to manipulate this, because:1. Hancock and his wife would never get close if Hancock is fighting Mercer.2. Mercer can neither consume Hancock nor his wife in order to use one as a weakness against the other, because he's weaker than both of them.3. Hancock has accepted his wife's affection towards Ray Embrey and has stopped hanging out with her._____________________________________________________________________________________I have presented my arguments, and refuted those made by Con. I eagerly await my opponent's response in the next round.
