I mean, Bats can clear, doesn't mean he will. It'd be extremely high difficulty though but the tech+bulletproof suit should push him over the finish line. The smoke bombs + taser fist should partly make up for his lack of H2H skill.
This version of Batman when he sees a moderately skilled opponent:
In all seriousness, I don't think he can. Bruce is a notoriously slow-walker and Wickverse enemies aren't your standard mob fodder, he was getting tackled by Riddler's reddit buddies. This Batman has nothing to suggest he can evade the asassins' hits, especially the rate at which he was hit and tagged by random thugs.
Still, it's an interesting discussion, and if he used the grapple gun or smoke bombs effectively (he can't) he could clear the first movie high diff but he'd be on the brink of death by the end of John Wick 3 if he survives that long.
Nah Bruce gets overwhelmed and pounded. Pretend he doesn't just get shot in the mouth for a second - he was getting staggered by haymakers thrown by riddlers guys', at some point he'll just be overpowered and stomped.
He's no refined fighter like Nolan and doesn't have enough batarangs to create distance. Using stealth won't help him either cause he moves too slow.
He also has a fetish for getting shot in the chest over and over again.
Lacks the skill and tactics as of now, and his gear isn't good enough to compensate. His suit being bulletproof is nice and all, but that will only carry him so far against trained assassins.
@zaied: Yeah that's what I was thinking making this, it seems like its beyond a challenge for 2022 Bruce, he's lacking skill and will need a lot of explosives to get anything done.
@frozen: Fair enough, I didn't chose Nolan's because he'd probably have it easy, but the ability/skill gap between the these Batmem is too great, I'm learning.
Eh. I think it’s circumstantial and how he goes about tackling the same scenarios, encounters and engagements Wick did. His suit being bullet proof helps for sure and is about any of the Kevlar laced outfits Wick wore, and he is durable as he essentially fell/glided off a skyscraper pancaked between a bus and overpass iirc and got up from that. His biggest problem would be the h2h encounters as Battinson doesn’t have much to go on in this category and could very well get smoked by some of the high level fighters Wick brawled with. But lean slightly towards yes he could, but IF he did it would be with extreme difficulty
Definitely clears most scenarios, his suit is completely bulletproof, that's a huge advantage in these movies. The only scenario where he may struggle is against the continental's armoured enforcers, but more likely than not he would still clear it eventually.
Eh, respectfully I dont see Battinson failing to do anything Wick can't do, he's not Bale level or even Wick's for that matter, in terms of skill for that matter, but his grapple gun he used to escape the police station along with his passable H2H, smoke bombs, explosives and disarm performance should give him the win here.
I can see him struggling with the Continental's armored foddee like the person above me pointed out, you also said no knives which rules out his chest symbol which he uses as a knife in the movie, making it significantly harder to dispatch baddies.
His taser fist however would seriously fuck people up, and should close the skill gap in most scenarios, wick enemies aren't really all that in feats, I give bats a six out of ten.
@ghostodoofus2: I can see bruce spending too much time beating people unconscious and being overrun that way. The Batmobile should help him in most streetside encounters, don't even remember it having weapons
@the_hajduk: If he refuses to kill, he would actually have a way harder time than Wick did. Especially in the third and fourth films, it won't be 20 guys he'll be fighting at any given time... it'll be a lot more and he'll be really really drained eventually, by that time one of them will hit his chin.
