Battle Which superheroes/villains would lose to a real world SWAT team if they were stripped of plot armor?

The SWAT team will employ real world tactics and resort to deadly force if necessary. Whoever they're facing off against has their standard gear and will resist to the best of their ability, but they don't get any of their standard plot armor.

Hot take? Batman would eventually take some hits by sheer luck in numbers in many portrayals. Smart Batman would actually fear guns and stay far far away and be a predator picking them off like the Arkham games. Batman that eventually jumps in the fray and moves against multiple opponents would eventually just dumb luck take a round.

Thats why modern batman iterations uses bulletproof armor. Even a shot close to the head ricocheted.

And all that full auto fire that Battinson tanked should have sent lead fragments spraying into vulnerable spots. Like his chin.

All that fire Battinson took would have knocked him to the ground and left him dead.

im pretty sure a guy full auto shoots at him and batman blocks it with his hand at one point. it doesn’t even get moved he just fully tanks it with his palm. it’s obviously made of some super material created by lucius or whatever
