Spartan IIs are super augmented soldiers, trained since the age of six, with enhanced brain capacity and reaction time. Their armor is made of multiple layers of the most advanced armors in the world. Their brains are wired to their suits so moving their arm moves the arm of the suit, which is why the Spartans can run and jump and all that stuff, while weighing multiple tons. On what you said about supers, Spartan IIs can either outrun, dodge, or counter attack every single super. Fist of Havoc - Spartan armor locks Ward of Dawn - Spartan pops with Spartan laser of just waits it out Nova Bomb - Spartan could actually outrun it Radiance - even a guardian can counter this easily Golden Gun - Spartan can dodge it (they have been known to dodge sniper bullets) Arc Blade - Spartan could turn the blade onto the hunter wielding it (highly trained in hand to hand combat and with increase reaction time, could dodge the blade faster than the blade could be swung)
