Todoroki using both his quirks must be monstrously powerful. Deku has no chances of beating him unless he makes a mistake due to not using his flame power enough. I rather think Todoroki wins though, and when Endeavour goes to talk to him after the match, Todoroki tells him to get out of his life.
yeah, but when things are that obvious all you can hope for is a good execution of it.

he can still win if he can reign in higher control of "All Might" he already demonstrated at the start that his strength is enough to prevent his ice powers from insta-winning
id be dissapointed if he loses now though, hes the main character its no fun if he loses here

+ Show Spoiler +Early on in the series, 'main character' status hasn't kicked in yet. Makes more sense for Todoroki to win when he goes all out, given that not only does he have a very strong grasp of his powers (well, the ice ones at least) but also the intellect to use them as more than just brute force, raw power blasts. Midoriya is still working on the foundational level of controlling his massive power. It would've been a little silly for him to have actually pulled out a win against Todoroki at that point.
What'll be interesting is whether Todoroki will turn into a friend/comrade, or be a second rival with a hostile attitude (aka, Vegeta syndrome) like Bakugou is. Teamwork between Todoroki and Midoriya in the future could be pretty interesting, as both have fairly strategic minds amongst the current cast.
At least Midoriya has been showing some progress, such as doing well in the earlier events, and isn't just constantly the whipping boy that gets last place every time before suddenly turning into the 'awesome main character that saves the day'. I have to admire the patience that authors in general must have to exercise to slowly grow a character instead of rushing to the 'good parts' since, as the author, they know where the character will eventually end up.
Short pep talk from All Might was a nice touch. Batoto and mangapanda have moderately different translations for that scene too. Cheesy or not, straightforward proclamations about the characteristics of a hero aren't a bad thing to have.
This manga is showing more and more potential to be something great. Just has to not turn into a 'school life manga, but with superpowers' and we should be okay. Based on the current chapters and themes, the mangaka seems to have a different long term vision so should be fun to watch where the series goes from here.

personally id give it a failing grade as an action manga, MC still cant control his power can can only sacrifice both his amrs and legs to not even beat his opponent whos another kid how is he supposed to face the adults we all know there gonna be fighting?
if he doesnt control his power soon then ill probably just drop this manga :/

better than the time he couldn't even bring out that power unless he sacrificed his entire body, jeez man give it another arc or two.

i am going to give it another arc, but if by the end of the next arc hes still just sacrificing pieces of himself strategically to do the most basic things then im done

I really enjoy the manga and I think, the fast that the MC still doesn't control his Quirk is leading to a non rushed manga that would turn into Bleach too fast.

glad there blowing through the side characters so fast

Recovery Girl essentially saying "I'm sick of your bullshit, you two" may indicate the self-destruct method of using All for One should be changing soon-ish. It was amusing, and made a fair amount of sense, but ultimately is a gimmick that couldn't last an entire series.
He's supposedly able to use around 5% of his potential power, so the sooner he can get a stable handle on that the sooner we get to move on with standard power progression in the background while the forefront focuses on other aspects.

haha. because of the two most recent chapters and that bacteria line bakugou became much more likable

funny i just started to read this 1 week ago haha we have such similar taste on shounen BR
i dont see this manga to go very far but i am enjoying the pure hot blooded shounen while it lasts.

Another nice chapter with a light mood. I really wonder who nominated Midoriya. I don't suppose it's someone we know. I can't think of anyone that would provoke such a reaction. Endeavour doesn't fit the bill imo.

It's certainly possible, and the most obvious guess at that. I'm not completely convinced that all might would have quite that strong of a reaction to Endeavour nominating him. Also from a plot point of view I'm not sure if Endeavour nominating him would help progress things as someone else doing so. Depends on how the author wants to use this I guess.
