2:55. Love this moment. Most versions of Ra's in TV, video games and movies can use advanced tech for their weapons of mass destruction or master plans but they tend to prefer using traditional and low-tech weaponry for personal close combat fights. For once, Ra's copied one of Batman's tricks which understandably caught Bruce off guard.

[@chriscage669]

Yeah, I wasn’t expecting that either. I always thought that razzle goo was using traditional shurikens. And after seeing this, this gives us an insight that, even after their long battles between each other, it shows that rassle goal how to step up his game to outsmart, the Batman

I really like how this fight illustrates the fact that Ra’s Al Ghul is a truly dangerous rival to Batman.

As much as this scene may be sentimental, I think that killing Batman should be such a difficult that one could make an entire movie out of it rather than a 12-minute-video. Of course, the game can't focus on Batman's death for hours, but showing him succumb to Ra's Al Ghul's might in less than 8 minutes is not doing justice to his skill and prowess either.
