As for the fight, Rogue's absorption powers might not even work. Let's remember, Monet just powered through Omega Red's life drain...
Physically, this is tough. They are about the same speed. Monet's strength isn't clearly defined, so Rogue may have the edge there. Even then, Monet has been depicted in Rogue's range before. Durability is interesting because Rogue has been KTFO by some stuff that wouldn't phase Monet. Then again Rogue is a flagship character with a deeper feat history. Monet has a few extra powers on top of her physicality though.
I don't know. I'm still making up my mind. Good thread Stilt. I feel like it will be one hell of a brawl considering their personalities. Possibly 5/5, until we know more about this "full potential" from Monet.

Ok, I understand the impulse to avoid no limits fallacies, but I offer you this:
We just saw Monet ignore a strong life drainer's siphoning attempt. Omega Red tried to drain her and caught an ass whooping for it. Why are you all so sure Rogue's drain will work?
I'm not being snarky here btw. I'm genuinely asking. I can see the argument for "let's wait for more info", but she just got an upgrade and resisted a powerful drain. Can we really be sure Rogue's will do the trick?

They were there to save her, and they know of Monet's relationship with Sabretooth. I probably can't prove this with scans, but I would think Omega Red and Lady Deathstrike held back to avoid hurting her.
Sabretooth had to talk them into even coming at all though, as they genuinely don't care about Monet.
Even going with that, what else could they have really done? Omega Red's drain is the best option to put Monet down with or without harming her and he failed. She would have bounced everyone around like basketballs regardless. The only one who could do real damage is Lady Deathstrike, and she would likely get dealt with at range using Red's body as a weapon, as Monet did, or just outsped.

And Monet isn't the same Monet. She was upgraded. She wouldn't have resisted Omega Red in the past either, but now she can. It's reasonable to wonder if Rogue can affect her right now.

Still siding with Rogue unless someone has an instance of her being even Spiderman level iirc she is like a class 10. Her tp isnt that great as well. She has alot of powers but she isnt exactly stellar in any one dept
Even high end telepaths (Prof X, Jean, Psylocke) had trouble reading Rogue's thoughts. As her Ms. Marvel powers developed she even started busting out a split personality. When one was knocked out either via TP or brutal physical damage, the other persona took over. So TP won't save Monet.
Fun fact, people assume this split personality ability is a result of Rogue totally absorbing Ms Marvel's powers and psyche resulting in the condition. BUT Carol herself suffered from split personality disorder. She really believed that her civilian form and her Ms. Marvel form were two different people! So it appears that Rogue absorbed this condition that resulted in her believing she had two personalities in her : Rogue and Carol Danvers.
