On topic: That poll is wrong.
Nero's regeneration is far above DmC Dante's. DmC Dante was (i am not sure but confident) scratched by the two female strippers on his back. When he woke up he still had the marks, and only when he did a healing ability did he heal from the marks. And it was really small marks compared to what Nero usually receives by monsters.
On top of that: He didn't regenerate the marks over couple of hours. I am pretty sure Nero would regenerate wounds less than few hours.
DmC Dante can freeze or immoblizied oppoent (to vague to tell), but it is for a few seconds i think.
Even if he did that, Nero has Devil bringer, something DmC Dante doesnt. I dont think ive ever seen DmC Dante use grappling (angel/demon) in story. And gameplay powers that arent used in story is pretty much not part of the power of a character.
I didnt see him using grappling against Vergil or Mundus as part of his ability.
Nero can just use Devil Bringer to grab DmC Dante. And he has brute force in his arm to attack with as well as a sword.
For illustration purpose, Nero was stabbed by many lances and a finishing stab from Agnus sword:
And he pretty much shruged it all off.
EDIT: Against Mundus DmC Dante used Eryx.
I really dont know how to interpret this. Whether as a ability of his or not.
Because if i interpret it as "Eryx a gameplay weapon is part of Dante's power arsenal", then 1) that in DmC 2 Dante will then have Eryx
2) Then i must consider the parts where Nero uses gameplay special abilities in a cutscene.
He also used the grappling. I am sure Grappling will be in DmC 2, so i have no doubt that it's part of Dante's arsenal.
But...i dont think his grappling is as accurate as Nero's Devil Bringer.
Devil Bringer = extension of Nero's body
DmC Dante's Grappling = a tool.
