who wins?

Interesting fight. I'll say Magneto

VanMae
I suppose it depends on range. The Mandarin is a lot faster than Magneto and could kill him with one punch. But if Magneto has time to get his shields up that's all she wrote.

Lord Feron
Magneto, Mags is one of those characters that in the forum always has his sheilds up. But I on't know mandarins recent ring capabilities. Anything uber?

Arena rules, they start 500 meters apart. Magneto's reactions are 15 times faster than a regular human's. He'd stomp Mandarin.

Mandarin is probably superhuman himself.

Magneto probably tears the rings and his fingers off. Even without that, I can't see him losing.
Although all out "I kill alien dragons" Mandarin vs Magneto would be really good.

the rings end up where the sun shineth not

I wonder if the white light ring could phuck with mags power?

Without a special stipulation (that Mags can't affect the rings), this is spite.

then how would magneto be able to take control of them?...even if he could Mandarin can control them remotely so it would be a useless tactic

Mags is likely faster on the draw as well, so he might do it before Mandarin raises them. Even if maggs cant affect the rings, he should still win through superior raw power, finesse and tactical thinking.

VanMae
The Mandarin only has a force-field with prep. It's not standard gear. It's a separate device that he's only used on a couple of occasions.

Without prep, all he gets is the enhanced durability that comes as a side-effect of Chi-amping his strength.

I'm really dubious about Magneto being faster on the draw than the Mandarin. I've seen Magneto get wounded before he could put up a force-field several times.

Not that it necessarily matters since Mandarin does not have a force-field in non-prep fights.

VanMae
Well Mandarin's never encountered Northstar, but he has countered Quicksilver, and he's done it physically rather than with an AOE power.

i love mandy but in general IM beats him. mags otoh has beat down all the xmen on multiple occasions. mags is a team buster, mandy isn't on that level i'm afraid. erm

The time he encountered Northstar was just silly. It was badly written as he even said QS is faster then Northstar but Northstar a second later goes escape velocity and at the time QS never even came close to half that speed

you keep making this argument as if Mandarin is baseline human...and mags never starts fight wth his forcefield up this must be a forum stip

Mandarin is being put up against a herald level character, he's gonna lose pretty hard.

I'm not saying he is going to win. I'm just saying people aren't giving him enough credit.

He's not, he's more like Thing via Chi instead of being made of rock. Still, Magneto's blood-trick has, irrc, worked on high-end metas before. Despite his Chi-amped strength, Magneto may be able to just will him dead.

Prep-Man
Probably Magneto.
