Wrong. Elites are just as physically strong and durable as a Spartan.
Spartans have much better training, reflexes, tactics, coordination and team work than your average Elite. Sure, there is a percent of the millions of Elite warriors that could give a Spartan a run for their money. But overall, the Spartans are far superior. This is demonstrated in just about every Halo game, book, comic, anything really.
Actually, in the books, the Spartans got their asses kicked in any fight that involved Elites.
The ONLY Exceptions are Master Chief, and Halo Wars (which they ONLY did to make Spartans look cool)
It the Novel, the VERY FIRST time an Elite appeared, he caused one Spartan to be lost in space, another had to be rushed to a Cryo-tube, or she would have died. And Master Chief LUCKED OUT Killing him, and that was just a Minor Domo.
Master Chief is the ONLY Spartan Canonically superior to Elites, and the Arbiter is his equal.In hand to hand combat they are about equal (and if I remember correctly the only close calls with an Elite were in hand to hand combat), but on the battlefield Spartans always have and always will be superior. They have much better tactics and aim.
