Predator's code of honour usually dictates he wants to fight "fairly" meaning:


 * Self Destruct is only used upon defeat (As it's a great dishonour to give the opposition access to their tech)
 * Predator usually only uses his plasma caster if his opponent using or is about to use a ranged weapon
 * Close combat usually means using his melee weaponry, unless his opponent has no weapons, then it's a physical confrontation to the death

Long term exposure to Iso-8 over time increases base stats naturally, so when it's unequipped you're much stronger than before. With prep you can augment the more powerful shards to take on multi-galaxy busters (Obviously not being used here, but just explaining its abilities).

With a reasonable amount of it already equipped, statistics amplification will be slightly unnoticeable until the hours creep by when it goes completely insane.

tl:dr

It will probably take BW at least half hour (low-ball) to cover the tier gap.
