Many of you are forgetting that Ezio had guns(although more primitive) and fought against many enemies that had guns. Edward would not win just because he had guns. His fighting style and technique would be what he has to rely on. Edward had more advanced technology, but he relied on it to work and if it didn't he was somewhat pacified. But because Ezio had fought against and with guns he could disarm Edward and use his guns against him. Ezio would win because of his finesse and intelligence on the battlefield.

i say edward because guns lives and breaths violence and was trained as an assassin and gives 0 f*ks character- everyone he knew and loved died or betrayed him and died, strong character.. i started assassins creed at 3 so dont know jack about the other two edward looks awesome

The man with 4 guns, obviously.

Chuck Norris would win. [spoiler]reallly though ma pirate boi would win[/spoiler]

Edward has guns and ships with bigger guns.

Edward. Because gun to the face.

Tough to say. I think Ezio beats Altair for the reason that there were 300 years for the Assassin fighting techniques to advance. Ezio has a wickedly leathal finesse and grace that Altair just cannot match. Between Edward and Altair, I’m going with Edward in this one as well, but mainly because Edward is a natural fighter who could kill an Assassin without training and by the time of Black Flag, Assassin combat techniques have endured and advanced in the +500 year gap between AC and AC4. Between Ezio and Edward is a tough choice. Again, Ezio has finesse, but Edward has natural abilities that only get better when he is trained. I think what will decide it here is brains. Ezio came from an Italian Renaissance middle class banking family. He was raised in an environment that valued education, study, the arts, and the like. Being well educated will help him come up with more unique solutions to challenging obstacles. Edward was a poor Welshman sailor and most likely uneducated. He knew how to fight and sail, that is it. There were several times when Edward was outwitted by his opponents which usually resulted in devastating consequences. I love Edward, but I am going to have to give this to Ezio, for his ability to plan and adapt to new obstacles. Winner: Ezio Auditore.

I'd choose Ezio, but, penis poll.

I choose Ezio. Given that he remained devastatingly lethal at the age of 52, he must have been a death machine in his prime. And I am assuming that this exercise assumes that all three assassins were at the peak of their abilities.

Shay because he makes his own luck.
