Fans of Marvel Comics won't be too surprised with this one, as having Taskmaster copy your best moves is about as expected as The Hulk smashing things.

This comic-book villain has photographic reflexes that allow them to completely memorise and replicate the actions of their opponents, which is why Taskmaster is here on this list!

The encounter with Taskmaster in Insomniac's Spider-Man is an awesome challenge, but part of what makes it so tough is that this baddie uses their replication skills to copy every move Peter Parker can perform.

He comes at you with dropkicks, uppercuts, and swing kicks and even uses a grappling device that mimics Spidey's web shooter. So, he's got the agility, the moves, the instant takedowns, and even the most iconic part of the superhero outside of his bright red costume. Of course, he has his own weapons too, which add even more of an edge to this fight.

Taskmaster really does do his homework because he doesn't just steal your best move; he steals all of them!
