Alright here is the challenge. You must adhere to the laws of equivalent exchange. Meaning if someone presents a Magical Feat, one most respond with a Psionic feat of equal, or greater value.


Rules.
Top Tier Class is the limit.
Comic, and Manga is allowed.
Pri-Crisis Feats are banned.
One Feat at a time.

I would like to test my theory, I believe Psi is superior to Magic. Feel free to take up the challenge, and prove me wrong.

"Psionic" is pretty broad based. Is reality manipulation included?

"Id"
I overlooked one important rule.

No items or tech. Both sides.


Reason for this is, I wish to showcase how individual character can manipulate said energy under their own power unaided.

I would like to ban reality warping from both sides.

Here Legion comments how time is completely malleable, and proceeds to manipulate it under his own power.

An example would be nice.

flames of faltine, winds of watoomb, crimson bands of cytorrak etc etc. strange uses those types of things in combat, but they are not of his own personal power but from dimensions and entities he has a "contract" with being a powerful mage.

and what of magical items like his eye of agamotto and cloak of levitation? are they banned also?

Yes those are allowed.

Yup those are banned.

King Kandy
It's kind of silly... most magic depends on using artifacts, rituals, etc... limiting them to what they can do soley with the power of their mind is pretty much handicapping it in favor of psi. It's like a "swordsmen vs gun-user thread", but you say the gun user isn't allowed to use his gun, and then use that to say swords>guns.

"Id"
Its because some magical items alone exceed the limit cap. Look at Strange contesting the IG itself.

King Kandy
I know. That's what high level magic can do. By restricting artifacts, you're restricting this to all psi vs. only low level magic. I mean characters like Shaman, can do next to nothing with these restrictions.

"Id"

King Kandy
Yeah, and the reason they are so high tier is typically due to their access to artifacts...

"Id"
Just give it a shoot, I am sure you can find plenty of characters and feats to counter with.

If it becomes apparent that Psi hold a solid advantage. The handicap could always be raised.

This challenge is still waiting to be equaled, although I'm fairly certain both Nate and Rachel-Phoenix have done similar.

Force evolve a planet, through time manipulation? That is a vary hard feat to match. I am looking into it. mhmm

illadelph12
Surfer's feat comes to mind.

I cant think of a feat that can match it.

I can only counter with the fact that a powerful enough psi, can create a temporal shield to keep itself from the feat above.

It was enough to keep Rachel, and her group safe from the temporal anomalies due to infinite amount of Earths being compressed into a singularity.

That's strike 2. sly

I might not like using it in a forum-debate setting, but I can acknowledge that since I can't definitively shoot it down, you can pass it off as canon and there's nothing I can do about it. stick out tongue

Nevertheless, feats done in any kind of Elseworld or What If book really shouldn't be allowed in these kinds of challenges, IMO. As they were written in the Elseworld or What If for a reason. Namely, because they didn't belong in continuity.

Example (and its a piss-poor one and there are better, but you'll understand): if I were posting feats for Superman and I'm all like "Superman is practically immortal looooook at these scanz!" and I post something from Red Son, where Supes lives for however freakin' long (immortal?), you'd be like, "Wait a minute." I mean, its canon (because its its own universe after IC) but it took place in an Elseworlds....Ditto for the Superman: 1,000,000 storyline and the Goldielocks living for however long. It's kind of canon, 'cause it's mainstream Supes. But kinda not, 'cause futures are only possibilities.
