   How Buffy Could Beat Half the Avengers in a Fair fight   
      
   	[too long for the entire text; go to link for full article with comparisons   
   of the weaker Avengers]   
      
   Buffy the Vampire Slayer’s titular character has what it takes to not only   
   be an Avenger, but to win against most of them in 1:1 battle. No, seriously.   
      
   Buffy and her eventual “Scooby gang” go on to fight more than just   
   vampires. Together, she and her friends took on monsters, ghouls, demons,   
   robots, and even the government!   
      
   THE POWER OF BUFFY   
      
   To understand her superiority over MCU’s Avengers (referring only to those   
   in the first film of the tetralogy), one must understand Buffy’s powers. The   
   opening credits of every episode assert, “Into every generation a slayer is   
   born: one girl in    
   all the world, a chosen one. She alone will wield the strength and skill to   
   fight the vampires, demons, and the forces of darkness; to stop the spread of   
   their evil and the swell of their number. She is the Slayer.”   
      
   So let’s review the specifics. Buffy’s supernatural gifts as the chosen   
   one include super strength, super speed, superhuman senses, accelerated   
   healing, heightened agility, heightened reflexes, and hand-to-hand/weapons   
   combat skills. Barring Thor and    
   Hulk, these powers give Buffy a one-up on over half of the Avengers.     
      
   		[No super speed that I ever saw.]   
      
     Buffy was adequately trained by her mentor, Rupert Giles, quite literally   
   with her eyes closed. She is seen a handful of times throughout Season 1   
   hitting targets and catching sharp items while blindfolded.   
      
    Buffy Summers has the capacity,  competence, aptitude, and ability to   
   overpower four out of six Avengers. And that’s not even getting into the   
   later entries.    Falcon? Ant-Man? Rocket Raccoon? Needless to say, Buffy has   
   little to fear unless your    
   name is Scarlett Witch, Vision, or Captain Marvel.
