==Summary==
Demetri Alexopoulos though always referred to as his first name Demetri is one of the main characters of the Cobra Kai TV series. Demetri is an outcast, nerd, and best friend/"binary brother" to Eli. Both are bullied by the time of high school due to their status which includes those like Kyler and his friends who bully them to the point where Eli feels like a loser because of his cleft lip which concerns Demetri. He'd later become friends with Miguel who'd join Cobra Kai and gain popularity through beating up Kyler. Despite Demetri hanging out with the now popular crowd with Miguel, he is faced with his former best friend Eli who creates a tough guy persona out of a haircut for himself. Demetri is no natural with karate unlike the others; with both of his attempts to join Cobra Kai ending up horribly. Much to his friend Eli insulting him for not being able to do so.
By Season 2 he joins Miyagi-Do after his former friends start bullying him, however sees through the muscle training exercises of Miyagi-Do and is no karate natural. He shows low morale and seems to barely try due to his pessimism, however, once he focuses and is able to "baby step" by Daniel's words, he proves to get better. After Season 3 he develops good karate skills along with teaming up with his best friend Eli Moskowitz. By the time of Season 4 he becomes the best Miyagi-Do fighter aside from Samantha and Eli. 
==Powers and Stats==
Tier: 
Name: Demetri Alexopoulos
Origin: Cobra Kai
Gender: Male
Age: 16-17 (Around 15-16 around the start of Cobra Kai with over a year passing)
Classification: Human, Martial Artist
Powers and Abilities: Superhuman Physical Characteristics, Martial Arts (Demetri is a proficient martial artist in karate), Experienced in weapons (In the skills competition in the All-Valley, he has skill, proficiency, and preciseness in unique tricks with Kamas. Enough for him to contribute to Miyagi-Do winning the first round in the skills show-off), Hacking, Limited Resistance to Extreme Temperatures (From one of his lessons about being able to adapt to the changes in temperature and use them to anticipate the moves of your opponent)
Attack Potency: Street level (Defeated an enraged Eli Moskowitz although is notably inferior as Eli fought out of pure emotion. Eli can briefly fight with Post-Timeskip Chozen. Briefly defeated Kyler and two other martial artists who could press Eli in the same scene. Kyler before training in karate with untrained associates could briefly press Post-Timeskip Johnny. In Season 4, Demetri is depicted as having the best likelihood against Robby before Eli entered the equation, meaning Demetri should be superior to Chris. Concluding that Demetri is comparable if not superior to Kyler and Chris who can break the middle portion of five concrete slabs simultaneously. Further supported when Demetri was able to best Chris in a sparring by the time of Season 3. Fought Robby but was ultimately one-sided in Robby's favour)
Speed: Athletic Human running speed, Peak Human combat speed, attack speed, and reactions (Able to keep up and block strikes from Eli and Robby who can keep up briefly with Post-Timeskip Chozen. Tagged Kyler Park and two other martial artists. Kyler before training in karate can tag Post-Timeskip Johnny) 
Lifting Strength: Peak Human (Able to wrestle evenly, restrain and put Eli in a arm lock. Miguel, Aisha, and Eli, Chris, and Bert could propel around a giant cement mixer around to fast speeds overtime once they learned to be in sync. Contributed to holding back Post-Timeskip Chozen in a tussle with a Bo Staff alongside Nathaniel, Chris, and Mitch) 
Striking Strength: Street level (Incapacitated Eli forcefully enough with a kick, although this mainly be due to the glass vase behind him lashing Eli. Eli can shrug off an attack from Post-Timeskip Chozen. Briefly incapacitated Kyler and other Cobra Kai fighters who were withstanding attacks from Eli. Kyler also could endure some attacks from Miguel, Post-Timeskip Johnny, and later Robby)
Durability: Street level (Shrugged off attacks from an enraged Eli. Withstood attacks from Robby in a tournament who was not holding back. Both of whom with an integrated kick were able to overpower a defensive block from Post-Timeskip Chozen which would make their attack greater than usual attacks from Post-Timeskips Daniel and Terry whose normal blows leave Chozen's blocks unfazed. Should be able to take his attacks) 
Stamina: At least Above Average, likely higher (Growing to be an effective fighter in Miyagi-Do, behind those of the top tiers should put him on levels of those like Chris who were able to trade blows for minutes at a time. Can take attacks from Eli who is physically superior to him. Fought alongside other combatants in the House fight, where he indicates no symptoms of tiring even after being beaten to a point where he was in a vulnerable position to get his arm broken. Afterwards fighting multiple fighters alongside Eli at the same capability) 
Range: Standard Melee Range
Standard Equipment: None notable
* Optional Equipment: Two Kamas

|-|General=Demetri is portrayed as the smart kid of the series; one of the most intelligent far surpassing those of his other academic leads. Hacked into Terry Silver's camera system with a chip. Quickly managed to make something out of materials to protect an egg, although it proves useless against Chozen's weapons. Deduced that Daniel's exercises are memory exercises instantly. WOG puts Demetri on a similar level to Silver in brains and higher than Kreese and Miyagihttps://twitter.com/mcschlossberg/status/1463596824825061383?lang=ca
|-|Combat=Demetri shows proficiency in martial arts and can coordinate a group effort with Eli to take down multiple Cobra Kai fighters. Demetri when factoring out Sam and Eli is Daniel's most acclaimed Miyagi-Do fighter, putting him above Chris who competed with Kyler who would've made it to the regional championships; making Kyler one of the best fighters in the region by that time. Demetri is a highly analytical fighter and has shown versatility in fighting multiple opponents as he did against Kyler and two other martial artists who caused trouble to those like Eli. Managed to hold his own against Robby in a point match but was solidly defeated.
