While funny, it is partly true. When he started fighting alone (CE on) he did get hit by a few bad ambushes. Few times on alpha Halo, few times elsewhere.
And the Insurrectionists.
Oh yes, there was the time Chief and the squad got COMPLETELY disabled, and the only reason they got out of there was Kurt had a bad feeling and hung back.

Um, S3s and S2s are the same thing other than augmentation. They aren't even more physically adept.
Wrong. S-III's were taken from a wider gene pool of candidates. ONI basically relaxed their criteria in order to allow more soldiers to be trained, but the soldiers were of lesser quality (in comparison to the S-II's).
Eh, Spartan III's received every child that had the Spartan II genetic requirements. ONI opened the limits to fill the numbers and because the augmentations were much better at the time, with no wash-outs (Key reason the S2 program was so strict, the augmentations literally would have been rejected if certain markers didn't get matched.)
So yeah, the average S3 might not be as great as an average S2, but some people seem to have this stupid mindset of "S2 beats S3 in all situations, no matter who is fitting each role and what gear they have."
