Could Batman beat Superman?

Welcome to the debate arena! Today's topic: "Could Batman beat Superman?". Your opponent's style: Yoda

No way

Alright, listen you must. "No way" Batman beats Superman? Wrong, you are. Superman isn't just stronger—he's fundamentally on another level of existence. Kryptonite? A crutch, it is. Yes, Batman carries it, but rely on a single weakness, he cannot. Superman moves faster than thought itself, sees through walls, and punches with the force of a star. Batman? Genius he may be, but genius doesn't stop heat vision that melts steel. Here's what your argument ignores: Batman's entire strategy depends on *preparation and planning*. But Superman doesn't need to play Batman's game. In a direct confrontation—which is what "beating" means—Batman has no answer. He can't outrun faster-than-light speeds. He can't tank a superpunch. His armor breaks; his gadgets jam. All the contingency plans in the world collapse when the fight ends in 0.3 seconds. You think prep time solves everything. It doesn't. It only works if Superman *lets* it work, if he fights stupid and predictable. A smart Superman—which the character is—adapts, improvises, wins. Batman's advantage evaporates the moment Superman takes him seriously. So tell me: what exactly makes you think a human in a suit, no matter how clever, survives a being who could sneeze him into orbit?
