Red Hood

The real Batman!
Yeah I do tend to forget to consider that this game is as much fan-service to the people who read the comics (Likely a large majority of this game's market) as it is a fighting game. So I was only thinking about those characters in terms of interest and diversity, but this game is fairly story heavy even so much that Arcade mode has tie-ins. So yes in that case Darkseid would have either overshadowed everyone or been poorly executed within this game's story. I see what you guys mean now.
 
Now I'm curious how good Red Hood Martial arts is in this new 52 trained by Batman, than trained by the All-Caste. Him and Bats should be close but you can never tell with DC you can be the best h2h fighter and still lose.

Jasons problem is his attitiude, when fighting his anger gets him beat.
 
In terms of New 52 Jason Todd does seem to be one of the best fighters in the DCU, I think he's top 10 easily but no idea what position he is.

Never mind the fact that he was trained by the Bat himself but he's been trained in the mystical arts style of the All-Caste and seems to have league of Assassins training.

I'm not sure who the best fighter is out of all the Robins, I think it was between Damian and Jason but Damian is dead so I dunno. You guys can correct me if I'm wrong.
 
Damian is the toughest Robin better than they ever were when in h2h but that's about it.

Nightwing is the more faster agile skilled combantant probably the best fighter. (with Jason closely behind)

Jason is the stronger, more headstrong, better enduranced fighter, and is said to be Batmans opposite.(kills)

Tim Drake is a skilled fighter, better detective, has boss prep skills, and clearly the genius.

Lol I love the Robins

Also Red Robin and Red Hood got buffed in the new 52.

At some point i think NW was the better detective, but drifting away from that field and into a more crime fighting scene has made him inferior to Tim Drake.. Honestly i was never a fan of the Robins, but their new personas seem to really make it for me...

NW has a great simple design very sleek and escrima staff is a weapon i find very Human and skill full, i really admire the power of that, on the opposite to characters like superman that have everything given to them with "little" effort..

Jason As Robin was useless and was actually killed by the community, his rebirth as Red Hood made for an Amazing Character that is getting more and more popular by the hour... his mainstream badassness seems to appeal to a lot of ppl, he portraits the role of an anti hero perfectly

Tim Drake as Robin was cool on ocasion but still just another Robin same tools same training only drifting in personality and the usage of some tools... but as Red Robin he really stepped up to the game, lvling up the Robin status to a different lvl

Yeah pre-52 Tim stepped his game up when he became RR he proved he could hold is own taking down the League of Assasssins and going head to head with Raas good stuff only thing i miss about old dc is his series.

Robins were the same because that's how Bats trained them until they grew out of their Robin persona, and chose to break out on their own which they did in time. NW RH & RR each of those Robin grew a whole new Fanbase. The only one that took it to awhole new level is Jason Todd and imo sticks out more than Tim and Dick because he's not stuck in Bats shadow unfournately he gets dragged back in-- in arcs but always manage to still break away in the end, as he remembers why he doesn't like them.

New52 saved Jason Todd and Roy for me only uspside for me.

Umm, well the usual pecking order has consistently been Dick Grayson>Jason Todd>Time Drake>Damian Wayne. Tim is the weakest of Dick and Jason and he easily beat Damien without even trying:






Jason has better fighting experience since before he was Robin but Dick has been trained by Batman a lot longer plus doing his own thing as Nightwing as well as having a physical advantage over the other Robins due to his gymnastics and acrobatic training during the circus. Jason had prior fighting experience and more muscle but is hot headed, Tim is more of a strategist than a fighter. He did beat Batgirl (Cain) in an instance of bad writing. But Jason has consistently beaten Time every time they met (Battle for cowl and Teen Titans) Dick and Jason were pretty close in their fights but either Jason got him by surprise, he was injured, or he was holding back, otherwise Dick would beat Jason without too much difficulty. I dunno about new 52 yet, I need to see more from him.

Jason wasn't originally meant to be hated by fandom. When he was Robin, DC actually liked the idea of a darker Robin. That's why they created him. They actually thought of him as a badass. Problem is that back then fans didn't like the idea of a bitter Robin. Thats why DC made that poll. Even then they were hoping the fans would vote Jason to live. Then what happened? He was brought back. Why? Because the writers realized the possibilities with his character. The dark twisted story arcs he'd bring. All of that. Under the Hood was a great example of how awesome Jason had become. It is only in a few issues, like that Teen Titans issue, where the writer wanted to ruin Jason and made him a whiny as possible.

Hell yes!
Atrocitus and Red Hood i would drop everything i mean EVERYTHING just to play those 2... originally i was not going to buy this game cause nether of then was in the game, but then i was like wth ill just have fun with Dick for a while... but the prospect of having those 2 as next dlc is so big that im very exited... Atrocitus is pretty requested and they do have a low poly of him so its not that big of a stretch to include him...red hood well we all know his situation... honestly at this point, and im sure imma piss a lot of folk off saying this but Atrocitus and Red Hood would be NRS best bet at the next 2 dlc... Yeah we got Ivy yeah we got Manta .... but honestly Atrocitus speaks for itself, he was meant to be in this game from the get go... but someone had the bright idea to put skinnystro in the game instead of him, witch i think is a stupid thing to do but i dont make this kinda calls...
 
From what I've seen, Jason is better than Tim in the new 52. These images are from Teen Titans issue 16.

Tim even resorts to blinding Jason by using a flash grenade. But Jason's all-caste training allows for him to fight blind. And for the most part Jason kicks Tim's ass while literally fighting with his eyes closed.

Tim eventually wins the fight but only because he uses his glider blades to slash Jason's Hood and catch him off guard. Tim had to use tools and gadgets to win while Jason fought only with his fists while blinded.





Jason also has a sword fight with Damian (batman and robin issue 11) , Damian cheats of course so I'm not really sure who would've won. Tim pretty much defeats Damian in Batman and Robin #10 though.

Confirmation to what we agreed earlier.. we just need to know Between Jason and Dick now. Btw good find too!

Yeah it's between Jason and Dick, although I must say Damian did have the highest potential and was definitely more skilled than all the other robin before him at his age. Unfortunately his untimely death has prevented him from reaching his full potential. And I agree, Tim is the smartest and best detective.

Nightwing has fought lady shiva twice though, the first was as Robin where he got his butt handed to him. He fought her again as Nightwing with broken ribs and still landed a couple hits on her. He did well despite his disadvantage. I have no idea how well Jason would do against shiva so it's still had to compare then.

I at least know Nightwing his physically stronger, more agile and quicker than Jason. On the other hand Jason has a wider range of different training and martial arts.

Yea I'm gonna have to go with Grayson on this, 4got about the Shiva thing... Jason really needs to get his memory back now and face Cheshire so we can see where he's at atleast.

Preboot Dick beats Jay, but in the New 52 I can't accurately say! I feel like this whole league of assassins war with the untitled is going to give Jason a big buff. They're setting up Jason for bigger, and better things I believe! There was something about deathstroke hunting the outlaws a while back Jay vs Stroke would paint a better picture of his abilities in the New 52.

I can't wait.

I think you guys are thinking about this too hard. It really goes chronologically.....

Dick over Jason over Tim over Damian

Jason had the most potential but dick got the most training from batman, and of the four he was treated the harshest. Dick is the toughest mentally of the robins and the least likely to be tricked by gadgets, weapons, misdirection, mind games. He's also far less likely to lose his cool.

And of all of them, only dick has a chance to beat BC hand-to-hand.

its always a mishmesh of trouble trying to see who beats who when and how because writters will always underdog someone or cripple someone else, or make it look like it was a low blow or the other guy didnt see it coming... theres never a face to face confrontation with fair rules to really make sure this one person is more powerfull stronger better fighter than any other...

the same way Superman is basicly the god of all gods i mean the writters that pick up this character have no limits to his power... to the point where he can struggle against your runofthemill villain but be able to withstand 2 planets being crushed against him... be able to survive a supernova exploding on him or even the on and off ocasion where he is showed in space wearing a Oxigen mask knowing full well he can basicly survive in space without suffocating... and the excuse for this is always the sun oh the sun was not bright enouth that day, oh there was a cloudy day so his powers where so so that time... i mean cmon its so boring... its gotten to the point where they should just show him in the Tower watchin the meteriology channel to see if he can fight properly that day or not...

its just up to the writter to be honest...
 
Yea I'm gonna have to go with Grayson on this, 4got about the Shiva thing... Jason really needs to get his memory back now and face Cheshire so we can see where he's at atleast.
I still don't know, maybe Dick is the best. Shiva keeps saying how Dick has so much potential but is still living in Batmans shadow. The writers seem to hinting towards Nightwing seeking out Lady in the future, I hope they hook up to be honest since they're around the same age. I'm predicting that shiva will train Nightwing.

Wasn't that fight just for show though? To fool Joker if I remember right. Before the New52 anyways, Dick beat Jason after Jason beat Tim in Battle for the Cowl.

And Dick doesn't come close to beating Black Canary. He got destroyed by Lady Shiva. Black Canary can at least hold her own.
