2B

Nah my dude. Pod gets a clean boss kill and I do not buy "time slow" and "time stop" immunity to mean the same thing, especially given that I don't entirely buy that Sol resisting the timestop wasn't Axl's doing so he could talk to his weird buff scientist alternate universe idol (especially since it's described as Axl consciously doing Time Kompression).

Sol dumpsters 2B if he gets a hit, and I think he can running this fight a bunch of times. But I also think 2B is adaptable enough to not be run clean through. I think Sol lands a hit, but I imagine it blowing off one of her arms rather than her head or torso. At that point, it's assessment time, and Sol... doesn't really have many tricks past that. Dragon Install and getting stronger, sure, but Sol is ALWAYS a wallbreaker. 2B is not a wall, she's a dodgy girl who has her very specific secret job because she's very, very good at being a dodgy girl. Gravity especially really screws with Sol's day, as he's been TK'd a LOT in his day. And I dunno about your playthroughs, but I never let go of that R1 button once during combat; that's constant damage plus some healing while dodging happens. Sol is just not good at taking that kind of pressure; Nago outright says due to his immortality, he sucks at actual dodging since he's not used to being unable to no-sell everything.

... funny enough I probably vote that Raiden solos 2B here as he matches speed before overclock comes into effect. But Sol smashes Raiden because yeah Raiden ain't parrying that punch.
