Batman

VS

Aquaman

Set Up:

Bruce Wayne is awakened abruptly in the middle of the night by the Grand Master that has traveled through universes to play a game with him. Still in his PJs he is thrown into the floor of the Batcave. “This will be your opponent” whispers the Grand Master displaying an image of DCEU Aquaman as a clock starts ticking backwards, counting down one minute. “Prepare for the fight Batman. You have ONE minute to grab whatever you think necessary for a fight to the death!”

This is the image shown to Bruce:

A total of 7 seconds have passed before Bruce Wayne stands up and looks around the cave.

When the minute is over, he banishes without forewarning, leaving behind whatever he wasn’t carrying on him. He reappears instantly midair, 5 meters above the surface of the ocean. He plunges down, to see a figure deep beneath the surface, staring at him.

Location: The middle of the ocean

Starting distance: 50 meters

Both contestants are in character and determined to win by any mean possible. Aquaman was waiting for Bruce, and believing him to be a great threat will perform accordingly.

Win by KO, incap or death

Why do you handicap the comic book character in every thread you make and give the Live Action one every advantage they need?

Well, Batman could take on over a hundred DCEU Aquamans, so I try to make it a bit complicated for him.

Jet he knows he is going to the water and knows who he is fighting, I'm pretty confident he could make good use of a full minute to get more than ready for this fight.

You don't think?

If they're underwater then Bruce should be in big trouble.

Bruce is only shown an image of Aquaman who looks like a normal buff dude with tattoos. I'm guessing he'll go for his suit but how would he get into it that quickly. He'll probably die getting beaten to death.

And because he is told to "fight to the death" doesn't mean he actually will go for the kill. This is Batman who doesn't just kill someone when someone tells him to fight to the death.

Arthur will kill him instead without much issues.

Bruce is given basic knoledge on who is Aquaman. Let's say the image shows Arthur lifting a submarine.

In this scenario it seems that Batman is not aware what the powers of Aquaman are, or that it will take place underwater. So he will be extremely underprepared and Aquaman would wreck.

If you gave Batman full knowledge and a full minute to grab what he needed he could win, maybe by using one of his suits that make him invisible (Insider suit, Stealth suit from Superman Unchained) and protects him from electric shock, and trying to electrocute Aquaman. Maybe he could try to cut him up with a laser too. He could probably think of a bunch of other ways to beat Aquaman in that minute as well, and has has suits that can protect him from hits from Superman for a while so he should be safe for the most part as long as he ends the fight quickly.

I edited the OP so to clearify that Batman knows what Aquaman can do. The image he sees is of Arthur lifting the Submarine, from the Aquaman trailer.

@buckwheat: Arthur has still taken a hit from Superman in pissed off mode.

He isn't going down with Batman just picking some stuff up in one minute. He won't have time to put on any armours or anything. And since the fight is underwater Aquaman has a huge advantage. He can go at crazy speeds underwater.

Batman:

- Air mask.

- Couple flash-bombs to blind his enemy.

- Jet pack to fly out of the water.

- A dozen electric Batarangs.

Yup, that should do it.

@richubs: you must be stoned if you think live action arthur could take more than a few hits from something like the hellbat suit.

@alucardvanwayne1800: When did I say that?

I just said that 53 seconds won't be enough for him to put on any armor.

@richubs: he can basically just jump into the justice buster which is more than enough here

@alucardvanwayne1800: He could but that's a very specific scenario. And we still don't know how long it might actually take to activate the Justice Buster.

If Justice Buster doesn't take time to get into then he wins. Otherwise he loses.

@richubs: justice buster is rather easy to get in. As i said the top pops open, and he can just jump in. He doesn't have to get everything fired up i imagine just being in the suit is allowed, and it's not like live action arthur is going to do much damage to it while it powers on. Plus you have to think batman is a peak human and this is his cave. He could probably make it anywhere in the cave in time.

Also looking back on it the suit should activate rather fast it operates fast enough to tag barry

@alucardvanwayne1800: Yeah I remember.

I guess you're right it probably does activate fast since he could get into it before Diana killed.
