Could the Titans East Take Down Slade?

[Scarlett]

So...how about it? Do you think the good old Titans East could take down Slade if they had to?

I think they really could i mean if they got their act together and began to really work as a team, they could make the distance. We have to remember that their ablities are way different than that of the Titans.

[Sage]

Yes they could lol

[Fixit]

I honestly think they could take him out. Speedy is Robin's equivalent at hand-to-hand combat, and Robin himself can hold his own against Slade. Mas y Menos can move faster than Slade and dodge anything he throws at them. Bee's not exactly a pushover in combat and she's got the advantage of flight as well. Aqualad's freakin' strong, and he could probably dehydrate Slade (to a crippling degree) if given the chance.

So yeah, they could take him easily

I DOUBT it, Slade knows every single one of there weaknesses, and he can use that guy with those arrows to be his apprentice. Since he can put those devices in there blood stream, and in one push of a button they can blow up. So basically Slade can take them all out, if he did the same thing with what he did to Robin and the other titans. He could do it to, and beside's Control Freak has a chance of taking them out also, cause now he knows there weaknesses.

Slade doesn't know the weaknesses of any of Titan aside from Robin and Terra. Those are the only two he's really focused on. Keep in mind also, when he had to go up against all five of them in "Apprentice II", he got his butt handed to him in under a minute. That being said; its a given that East could whip his fanny in a similar amount of time.

True, he could TRY and take Speedy in as an apprentice, but honestly: the only similarity Speedy has with Robin is the fact that he relies only on gadgets and himself to accomplish something. Slade wouldn't be able to push the same emotional triggers that he did with Robin by a long shot. He'd need about a season's worth of studying East to try and manipulate one of them. Thanks to the events of season II and IV, he hasn't had the time to do that.

Do remember also; Slade's nanite generator was destroyed at the end of Apprentice II, and he hasn't managed to rebuild it. If he had, he would have used them on the titans in "Terra" rather than focusing on the girl herself. That knocks out the bloodstream nanite option.

Agreed, honestly any group of trained superheroes could take out Slade except for the Justice League... I don't even see a fight... just an unfair squabble on Slade's behalf of course... but let me not underestimate the poor man, he tries to be evil... fails... but tries

Anyway back on topic, I doubt the only information Slade has on the Titans East is their names or probably not even. After all, the Titans East weren't even big back when Slade was still around, they don't even have a pretty big city to protect so word of them wouldn't have reached Slade... probably.

Despite that however, they would still be able to take Slade down, I mean if a

A cyborg with a sonic cannon
An alien chick with super strength and solar power
Another alien chick with mystical powers
Some kid with a metal rod and martial arts skills and gadgets (xD)
and a boy that can turn into different animals

Can take down Slade, then how can a group of kids with

A leader who isn't actually obsessed with Slade and IMO a better leader than Robin if even the chance, with powers that allow her to fly, turn small, stingers, and martial arts skills taught by brother blood
A boy who can control water and link to sea animals
A boy who can shoot arrows, knows how to fight with just his bow
and two boys who can run at super speed

Then they can surely take out Slade, I mean they kind of have more options and I see a better fight between them and Slade... or I could be saying that because the Titans have become repetitious and tiring for me ha ha

[ye olde anderson]

Don't forget; Aqualad's pretty freakin' strong as well. He's able to go hand-to-hand with another metahuman UNDERWATER where pressure and movement resistance comes into play as well.

Now add in that he can smash through rocks with one fist underwater....

take that strength/speed and put him ON LAND where resistance and pressure is considerably less.

The guy's at least as strong as Cyborg.

[Sage]

oh yeah... Superstrength damn forgot about that *knuckles side of head*

[Kaiyah]

I think the Titans East are actually stronger than the Titans. Espeacially if you take the time to ponder and compare their pwoers as we just did I don't know how many times. ((LOL))

BumbleBee is more saine than Robin and her group if you ask me is more skilled than Robin's group whom he has anger issues, one has passed the line of innocense, the other can barely ever act serious, a member can't control her powers ((at times)) and the last half of the time is just there.

[Sage]

and the last half of the time is just there.

hm... I wonder who that is lol

kidding anyway yeah I do consider them stronger, individually I mean honestly each of them are capable of fighting by themselves unlike the groups of the Titans... they're not experienced in individual battles... so yeah... I don't wanna go deeper... use that brain of yours lol

[Kokujo/ Neka]

No them can't because if they can't take down the teen titans they have no chance against Slade.
