So, unfortunately I'm extremely tired, and I'm moving in for senior year of college. So this is incomplete, and not as well tested as it should be, but here's what I got so far.
The question is how many times must any character walk/block to get from fullscreen to touch-distance in between Deathstroke's quickshots. I did this as opposed to a raw walkspeed measurement because it takes into account acceleration as opposed to pure speed. In footsies you aren't walking long distances. You are walking and stopping. I figured Deathstrokes quickshots would be an adequate time frame to test the walk in between. If you compare these results to raw walkspeed, you will find MASSIVE differences due to characters' different walkspeed acceleration.
Most startling is Zod's. This guy barely moves at all- though it's not as bad compared to other characters if you just see how long it takes to get from point A to point B. The rate at which he goes from standing still to actually moving is just soooooo dam slow.
Well, here are the results. The margin of error is my own reaction times, since I did this all manually, so don't take this as statistical certainty. I mostly hope this will just spark discussion on who needs walkspeed increases and who doesn't.
Question: How many times must this character walk/block before reaching Deathstroke from full-screen in between his quick shots?
Answers:
Black Adam: 4.75
Sinestro: 4.75
Zod: 10 (wow...)
Ares: 6
Scorpion: 8.5
Lobo: 7.5
Flash: 4
Nightwing: 7
Lex Luthor: 7
Batman: 5.5
Cyborg: 7
Green Arrow: 6
Superman: 5.75
Raven: 4
Aquaman: 6
Wonder Woman: 5.25
Joker: 7.5
Catwoman: 6
Harley Quinn: 7.5
Doomsday: 5.5
Bane: 5.5
Green Lantern: 5
If anyone runs this test on a character that I haven't done yet, let me know the results and I'll update this.
If you do the test with a character several times and get results that are consistently different then mine, let me know and I'll add that correction. I've not had enough time to test all of these as much as I'd like, so any different conclusion you have that's been tested more than twice (how much I did for each) is probably more accurate.
And to any Zod players, good luck with playing a footsies game ....I mean, wow, I guess he wants everyone to kneel so he can actually move half as fast as them....
*** Edit: Also, this is only FORWARD walk speed. Backwards walkspeed is important as well, unfortunately I haven't found the time yet to test that... ****
