Hmm..... Though Wolfe's gaunlets and semblance would automatically grant him easy victory, I'll have to give this one the Regda. God I might even get flaked for this one, but this is my opinion, so hopefully it doesn't change the outcome of the battle what so ever. So, here's why I choose Regda.

Wolfe will blast him with lightning, fire, and ice attack (and the occasional pistols in his gaunlets). This would usually mean he wins right? Well, if you have ever fought a stubborn animal that refuses to go down, then you'll know where I'm going at. Also, I doubt either of these guys will stand in place and get blown to bits. Wolfe is also reliant on tech. Though he can fight hand to hand combat, so can Regda.

Okay, enough horsey nanny stuff, down to business. Wolfe's semblance allows him to make shields in short burst. But with Regda's semblance being pulled into this then we have to talk about "Aura Pool". I can picture Wolfe blocking attack after attack after attack... but what happens when he runs out of Aura? The said may be said about Regda, but that's the thing about this fight though. Regda has a rather large "Aura Pool" which means he can continue to use his strength semblance much more than Wolfe can.

Long range weapons will now be put into order with a mix in their semblance and attitude into play as well. Wolfe can fire with his Dust gaunlets and shoot his pistols and block attacks like so. But keep in mind, this isn't your ordinary thug or White Fang member that Wolfe is going up against. Being in the mob, means you have to think fast, or you might as well be dead. Mobsters, gangsters, they have to be think at a moments notice. Wolfe will use tactics and try to analyze his opponent, but in a fight like this, he might not have as much time to do any of that. Another thing to consider is their Faunus traits. Wolves are aggressive hunter that outwhit their opponents using strategy and timing. Honey badgers... pardon my language, but they don't give a flying f*ck about what is infront of them. A pack of hyenas imply the same tricks wolves use, but there's no way in hell a pack of hyena's can take on the stubborn nature and hyper aggressive nature of the damn bagder. i don't want to head too far into the Animal Vs Fanon type, but yeah, I'm going to use those to this fight right now. Also, have you ever heard of a hunter shooting a bear in the head, only to realize the bear was too stubborn to die and attack the hunters anyways before the bear itself died from its wound? Yeah, same concept. Wolfe will us words to also make Regda fly into a blind rage in combat, but this is when you have to consider if you just gave him a steroid boost?

Now, combat experience. Regda has had to fight for his survival in an orphanage - and won his fights - and then survive the mob life for eight years. I don't know about you, but you'll be surprised what some people learn outside of school. The fact that Regda survived the cops, rival mobs, etc. means he has knowledge of combat and live experience. Not just sparring and training mind you. Now don't get me wrong, oh course Regda is gonna take some serious damage, but once he's in range, lights out.

Another thing to point out as well, Wolfe Black's profile never specificed the bullets he fires, so I'm gonna assume its a 9mm Dust round. Now, let's move on to the .45 APC round. It doesn't matter if you are wearing armor or not, you WILL feel this round. Wolfe's shields will help in defending against this, but this means he won't be able to use his range attacks. Now to add to the topic of when they both brawl against one another, Wolfe Black's "Wolf Fury" will mean he'll have an edge against Regda. But keep in mind, and no this is no joke, a honey badger Faunus won't care if you're bigger than he/she is, if they're anything like their animal counterpart, they will not give a flying f-(you know where I'm going with this) who they are up against. Their stubborn and aggressive nature will allow them to persitantly fight until the very end.

A likely note: though Regda's weakness is stated "knowing his limits", his personality contradicts it. So for intensive purposes only for this match, I have to assume he'll think more like badger, and less like honey. Just a lil note.

One final note. At first, I thought Wolfe would win hands down. Then I remembered (and yes I will use this as a simulated battle) in League, there was a certain champion that reminded me of a honey badger's stubborness of not dying called Tyndamere. If you play League, then you know what I'm taking about.

Final verdict: Regda. But know this, this was a tough one. Like Tianee's fight from Block 2, Regda will win by the skin of his teeth. Yes he's limited to medium and close range, but his overall experience will give him one hell of an edge against Wolfe. It's like Iron Man vs Hulk in a way. You can zapp him all you like, but he's too stubborn to go down. Overall, and I will say this with every battle, I like them both. Both have a unique aura (no pun intended) around them that makes me love them both. Maybe oneday the mobster will team up with the inventor. May the best/faved OC win. o7
