I'm unfamiliar with "Bloodties," so I'm just going to go based on what I know of Exodus from recent stories with him. Correct me if there's a difference between normal and Bloodties Exodus.
They're both some of the most powerful psychics around, in both telepathy and telekinesis. Stryfe should, honestly, have the edge in power since he has the same powers as 'Messiah' Cable, though I don't see him performing quite that well most of the time, so the edge isn't as big as it could be, though IMO it is still an advantage. He is physically enhanced too and quite skilled, so if it came to a physical throwdown I'd bet Stryfe.
Exodus's power is based in part on the confidence of those around him and such, so he has some variation and at absolute max he probably has the edge, but in general I'd say Stryfe wins.
Well, he humiliated a weakened Apocalypse, and overpowered both Cyclops and Jean Grey in the X-Cutioner's Song storyline. I don't know how powerful Cyclops and Jean Grey were at the time, but. Stryfe also overpowered X-Man; not Shaman X-Man, by the way.
To everyone: 'Bloodties' Exodus taking on the X-Men and the Avengers simultaneously. Exodus was doing more than that as well, I believe.
To Survivor19: Is Exodus strong enough of a telepath to affect Stryfe in such a manner as you say that he would exploit his Daddy complex?

Feat wise Stryfe has nothing that matches what Exodus was doing on that island. But I would say he is capable of replicating that feat, I don’t see much difference in power.
Yet I see the match go down, like how Exodus fought off Holocaust or Sersi.
Stryfe is actually smart to choose not to lash out and use all of his raw power. otherwise he would kill himself and burn out. Stryfe sees things as beneath him and chooses to use at little power as possible while inflicting as much pain on his enemies as possible. He is the Chaos Bringer, not the Chaos itself.
