    The Mandalorian fears nothing, he's just not an idiot. He is always calm and keeps his shit together even when getting shot at. All the fighting skills of a true Mandalorian warrior, with the patience of a general.
    He knew if the kid went after her alone, he'd be dead 5 times before he hit the ground. If that was a normal bounty given to him by the guild, he would take it with multiple other high paying pucks.

    The Mandalorian isn't afraid, he's just cautious of trained assassins, he never underestimated the High ground and managed to exploiting it with flash grenades, and distractions to capture their targets.

    I'd argue assassins and bounty hunters are by definition better or worse than eachother.
    They are both specialized in different things. The Mandalorian is a badass in straight up combat. But while competent in stealth, not as good as an assassin. An assassin, won't be as competent in straight up combat. While being an expert at stealth.

    I don’t think he’s afraid. There was simply no real benefit to go after her at first until after he offered all the money.
    I’m sure there are Mandalorian Assassins too.
    And there wasn’t much to do against a sniper in a open desert field shooting at you from what looks like at least 15 miles away.
    There are accounts of snipers in the real world of keeping hundreds of troops from advancing so what do you expect one guy to do against a sniper who is well over 10 to 15 miles away on the side of a mountain range?
