A combat trope in which a fast character fights a slower opponent who manages to react to their speed and get a good hit in. If they're fighting a MightyGlacier, expect the ensuing counterattack to be [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown brutal]]. This trope can be used as a kind of [[TheWorfEffect Worf Effect]] where even the fastest member of any team proves useless against the new threat. A FragileSpeedster will usually be put out of commission by this maneuver. May happen because the enemy has SuperReflexes or CombatClairvoyance. If they don't, this can run into heavy FridgeLogic since from the speedster's perspective their opponent ought to be effectively not moving.

The heroes are all over him before he can get back up.

** During the fight between the Flash and Arrow, Oliver manages to land a good hit on Barry. This gets Barry even angrier, and he proceeds to punch Oliver about [[RapidFireFisticuffs fifty times in five seconds]]. Justified because Oliver specifically points out in the episode that Barry tends to rely on his speed too much, thus allowing others to outmaneuver him. This gets rectified in later seasons when Barry is shown as a much more competent fighter (like when he takes out two ARGUS guards without his speed).

The first time, Sasha speeds up to knock out Stella, but Stella [[ChromeChampion turns her skin to steel]] after Sasha is already committed, resulting in Sasha breaking every bone in her arm. The second time, [[spoiler:the speedster terrorist tries to punch Vince, only for Vince to absorb his kinetic energy, resulting in the speedster stopping cold. Vince then grabs him and starts absorbing the kinetic energy of his blood, stopping its flow and nearly causing the guy to die from his cells not getting enough oxygen]].
