Forge (leader)
Multiple Man
Beast
Polaris
Psylocke (telepath, not telekinetic)
Forge has experience with Polaris, as does Multiple Man, and as a leader. He and Beast share interests and mindsets, and while Beast provides pure brawn, he and Forge can work alongside one another for tactical/technical achievements. While Polaris is the energy wielder, Betsy's the telepath and expert combatant. Multiple Man, while not fitting any perfect role within the team, seems like a good compliment and a good way to round out some powers.
I would say orginal five cuz i do think they compliment themselves the best and have known eachother the longest....my second five would be
Magneto(leader)
Multiple Man
Iceman
Betsy
and Mimic (with all there powers....)
think about it....multiple men who can control ice at godlike levels, have Magnetos powers, betsy's mental powers, and just to add one Colossus's metal...
1) Wolverine
2) Magneto
3) Quicksilver
4) Gambit
5) Shadowcat
Wolverine because he has the strenght and stamina, Magneto because he is a natural leader like Wolverine, yet he has more experience. Quicksilver becase he's fast and able to preform tasks which others cannot, Gambit because his experiences would aid the team, and Shadowcat for her phasing abilities.
1. Magneto- if he counts (Energy/Raw Power)
2. Juggernaut- if he counts (Strength/ Invunerability)
3. Beast (Intel/Agility/Strength)
4. Iceman (Energy/Elemental)
5. Jean Grey (TK/TP)
If top 2 dont count:
1. Beast (Intelligence, Agility and Strength)
2. Colusses (Strenth and Durability)
3. Jean Grey ( TK/ TP)
4. Iceman (Energy/Elemental)
5. Wolverine (Fighting Skills/Durability)
1) Emma (lead, telepathy)
2) Nightcrawler (rescue-transports, surprise attacks, agility)
3) Psylocke (group levitation, shielding, fighting skills)
4) Beast (muscels, brains)
5) Magma (energy, elemental)
Why these personalities?
-Emma is a strong, good leader who tends to look at things from a different point of view than the other X-Men.
-Nightcrawler is funny (group moral) and a good ethical counter weight for Emma...without being a threat for her leadership.
-Psylocke is used to follow others but knows what she has to do when alone.
-Beast is very kind and knows how to keep a group together without actually leading it.
-Magma...well, i just like her 🤣
All characters (except for Kurt and Emma) have not that much bad experiences with eachother and will probably build up a good, efficient team in very few time...imo.
