Chief is the best simply because he's a natural born leader, hell he busted two guys heads open at the age of 11 just so they wouldn't force him to leave a team mate behind like the natural weeding process goes.
Any of the spartans could have done that
He's accomplished way more than any other spartan has accomplished, only because the spartans weren't put in the same circumstances he was. thou i believe onyx was just as important as halo.
example one being, he saved humanity 3 times And each time he was barley able to do it and wouldn't have been able to if it wasn't for luck,timing, and cortana
, he almost single handedly brought down the covenant, again that was only because he was the only spartan that could have done it at the time
he poops on the honor guard and slaps his knee about it. yet he nearly got killed fighting an elite minor and shipmaster. no to mention i am positive the arbiter could be him in hand to hand combat
In all, Master Chief is a pretty cool guy, he runs around the universe killin covenant and blowin up rings, and doesn't affraid of anything.
He destroyed 1 ring, and is terrified of the flood, obviously you haven't read the books an have the mentality of a 6 year old that views chief as an unstoppable hero
I wouldn't put too much stock in the encounter with the Elite Minor on Reach Station Gamma, it was supposed to be the first time ever that Elites were encountered (which has since been retconned), and that was the main reason why that fight was so difficult, imo.
As for the one fight with the Elite on the Ascendant Justice, I again wouldn't really use it as evidence of Chief's abilities, whether arguing for or against. In that instance he had been fighting practically non-stop for at most a week on Alpha Halo, and he'd received quite a few wounds (I believe Halsey even states in First Strike when she's examining him that it's a wonder he's still even standing and functioning properly), so he wasn't at optimum performance, and also, the Elite had an energy sword. And while they were on the bridge, it was still pretty tight quarters for a fight against a guy with a sword.
Also, Do we know the Rank of the Elite that the chief encountered on the Bridge of Ascendent Justice?
In my mind he would have to be a pretty high/advanced rank.
I'm pretty sure he was a Shipmaster, though I'm not one hundred percent certain of that, he could have been a high ranking Spec Ops Elite, and they're certainly no push over, I've never seen one wield an energy sword in game as an enemy, but R'tas Vadum (good old "Half-Jaw" ^_^ ) is good evidence of what sort of stuff they can do.
