Wow, another show of biased
It's bias, not biased.
Master Chief was fighting an Elite with mastery of the Energy sword when he himself has little experience with it.
Fred killed 2 elites with most likely average energy sword training(For an Elite) with 2 knives he has trained(and all other S-IIs) extensively with.
First off, how do you know the other Elite's had average skill levels with the swords? You say most likely, yet have no real reference to back it up with. Second, I'm sure Chief is handy with knives. Never said he wasn't. All I said was that Fred used knives inferior to Energy Swords, which they are.
Skill-wise they are equal besides MC being a slightly better leader, so basically it comes down to "Who do I like more, so that person should win."
Depends on what you mean by better leader. In training sure, but Chief has the fatal flaw of always wanting to finish the mission at any cost. On it's now, that is admirable. However, in First Strike, after taking the Ascendent Justice and only having the combined crew of Cortana, Johnson, an ODST named Locklear, a pilot named Polaski, and an ONI agent named Haverson, he still wanted to do to the then unknown Covenant homeworld and capture a Prophet.
Pretty narrow focused given the situation. Fred makes errors, in the same book he broadcasted a "Brace for impact" message to a ton of nearby ships by mistake.
Anyways, Fred isn't even a H2H specialist, that is Will and Kelly(Due to her speed). MC could probably use a knife just aswell as Fred, considering they are the 2 best leaders(Not counting Kurt) and the most well-rounded of the S-IIs
Answered above.
