[quote]Yknow, gjallarhorn has a secret proximity detonation perk, so once it even got near chief, it would explode and kill him. It'd be impossible to try and deflect it, soooo Gjally would toast chief instantly.[/quote] There's no mention of the characters listed (Saladin, Shin, Toland) ever acquiring Gjallarhorn, as there was only one made (lore wise). This concludes that in a fight with Chief, Linda and Kelly versus Saladin, Shin and Toland, this scenario is impossible. [quote]Lord saladin would make chief into a plaything, he's probably several times stronger, and is also capable of disintegrating chief with a punch, like any other titan could.[/quote] Guardians lack "great" physical strength as they're powered by the Light (space magic), they also lack military training unlike Chief, Linda and Kelly. Due to their training and MJOLNIR armor, the spartan have super human strength (they can lift things roughly 5 times their body weight) and super human reflexes. Both of these abilities will give an edge in a fight, where the target would most likely die or if he's lucky enough, get severely injured in a few second. Proof to this is when Chief was onboard the UNSC Atlas and killed 2 out of the 4 ODSTs who attacked him, leaving the other 2 ODSTs injured for life. All of this happened in mere seconds, [b]without[/b] MJOLNIR armor. If Chief ever was to go toe to toe against Saladin, the most likely scenario is that Chief would win. [quote]Shin malphur was a master gunslinger, and dead-eye shot, so with him on the team, any snipers would be dispatched by him within seconds. Also, just with golden gun he could kill at least 1 or 2 before the others armor lock. But once that's done, they would get Fist of havocd, or nova bombed.[/quote] Reflecting over what xTotalSellout said about Lindas sniper skill and reflexes, I believe we both can agree that whether Guardians have supers or not, as soon as they'd stick their head out they'd be shot dead in a split second. Especially since supers have cast times and are not instantaneous. [quote]Guardians are centuries ahead of spartans in technology, and are monumentally more powerful[/quote] Lol, no. Light (Space Magic) is not technology and it certainly does not make them more powerful.
