A lot of people seem to concentrate only on the killfactor, neglecting the skill involved. Example: it is possible to break one's back with baseball bat, but in a fight with the average Joe you could probably walk away from a baseball bat hit with nothing worse than a few broken ribs. Than again, a master of say Kali (Filipino stick fighting) can kill you with a single blow of a stick weighing like half a pound.

Similarly, Cap can deliver more damage with a single well placed shield throw than the Wrecker with a dozen hits with his crowbar.
