Here's my biased opinion:
Master chief.
Here are my reasons.
Noble 6 is using inferior technology and has a good 15-20 years or so less experience. (don't forget chief is not young unlike noble team)
--
reading some other lovely responses, i would have to say master chief is NOT the best Spartan 2. if the Spartans were put in a fighting game with stats MC would be the guy with all Equal stat points, Kelly would have speed maxed out, George Power, Fred Dexterity and skill, etc.. etc.
In regards to MC vs Noble team, I still say he would win. But not because of X weapon vs X weapon, its simple really. The team has a general advantage, but this isn't some Gladiator elimination game. Spartans use Guerilla warfare and MC has the most experience on all fronts. Only true problem would be Kat as she is a lot smarter than most spartans (even with their incredibly high IQ's), But in general MC's gear is leaps and bounds more advanced than a Spartan 3's. (that was even a central plot point in one of the books, that the Spartan 3's survivability was drastically reduced due to insufficient gear and lack of upgrades)
-- Also edit: Lets not forget that Spartan 2's are genetically modified to be ALOT stronger than Spartan 3's as well. While Spartan 3's have a nicer and safer genetic formula. a Spartan 2 could still oh say ..leave a giant hand print in the armour of a Spartan 3 with an open palm punch. if that rings any bells to anyone.
You are correct that normal Spartan III armor is inferior to Spartan II armor. Normally, Spartan III's have SPI armor.
HOWEVER, Noble team was issued full MJOLNIR, which is the same exact armor as Chief. They're basically on parr with a Spartan II.
If that's not enough to convince you, remember that Jorge is a Spartan II, so he is undeniably equal to Chief in size, strength, and technology.
You are correct, they do have mjolnir armor. i was thinking strictly SPI (although in halo reach you can use an SPI helmet) So forgive me there. However while the mjolnir armor DOES enhance strength, it is a multiplication factor. So the difference in strength still applies, as the spartan 2's are still around two or three times stronger than a spartan 3 soldier.
(i keep friggin saying spartan 2 instead of 3)
