We all know that Magneto is the master of magnetism, and if he was facing the following list individually, he'd most likely win against them all...but what if Magneto was jumped all at once by everyone on the list? Would he stand a chance? Magneto at full power, giving it his all, no-holds-barred, and blood lusted....the battle takes place on a large military base...there's NO PREP for either team...Does the Master of Magnetism stand a chance against this "metal" team? How do you think he would fare against the following....?
1. Cyborg (from the Teen Titans)
2. Steel
3. The Vision
4. Deathlok
5. Robocop
6. The Terminator (from T2)
7. Ultron
8. Brainiac (the version in the JLA and Superman cartoons)
9. T-1000 (from T2)
10. Metallo (Supe's villain)
11. The Cyborg Superman (Supe's villain)
12. Terminatrix (from T3)
13. War Machine
14. Iron Man
15. Dr. Doom

Of course Dr. Doom himself isn't metal, but his suit of armor is....
....and I've actually seen this fight go down before in an old issue of "The Champions" and Doom reversed the magnetic polarity on his armor to counter Magneto's attacks, but that was years and years ago....Magneto is much more powerful and smarter now to those kinds of defenses....but, anyway....I thought this would be a very interesting discussion.....so D-I-S-C-U-S-S.......................................

Powers and abilities
Arguably the most powerful being on the planet, Magneto is a mutant with the superhuman power of magnetokinesis.[1]
Magnetokinesis: Magneto can shape and manipulate magnetic fields that exist naturally or artificially. It is unclear, however, whether he must draw magnetic force from outside himself (if so, then he can do so over vast distances). It could also be that he can both naturally generate and draw on the earth's magnetic field to increase his power, effectively making him both a reservoir and a conduit.
As the Master of Magnetism, he can: lift, move, and alter objects (sometimes weighing many thousands of tons) through magnetic force alone, manipulate the iron-enriched blood-flow to one's brain to induce aneurysms or unconsciousness, control ferrous particles in the atmosphere (even the very air), alter the Earth's magnetic field which extends into space as the Magnetosphere, increase his own strength to the extent of being able to exchange blows with at least Colossus, fly in or beyond the Earth's atmosphere, erect electro-magnetic force fields with a high degree of impenetrability (protecting himself or others from almost any psionic, energy, or physical attack), and achieve an indefinite range of other effects.
Magneto's power is for all practical purposes limitless. With the primal forces of nature at his command, Magneto has stopped armies, raised islands from ocean floors, moved mountains and threatened to devastate the world with apocalyptic floods and earthquakes. Magneto once blanketed half the globe with a self-generated electro-magnetic pulse that caused widespread devastation.
Magneto can use his magnetic powers in more than one way simultaneously. He can completely assemble a complicated machine within seconds through his powers. Although Magneto often gestures when using his magnetic powers, he can utilize them fully even when standing totally still merely by concentrating.
Magnus is tied very closely to the Earth's EM Field. As it is affected, so is he. He knows instinctively all that happens to it, and with this link is granted an odd sort of immortality. The Earth lends him strength by its simple existence. He draws on it all unconsciously.
Magneto's ability to wield his superhuman powers effectively is dependent upon his physical condition. When severely injured, his body is unable to withstand the strain of manipulating great amounts of magnetic forces. When his powers are not at their peak, he appears to have greater difficulty controlling forces other than magnetism.
Magnetic Force-Fields: Magneto usually protects himself with a personal forcefield that he can quickly expand to protect large areas. His forcefield has withstood the affects of multiple nuclear weapons, volcanic eruption, the depths of space and attacks from multiple Avengers or X-Men, as well as Phoenix, Thor, and even Galactus. It is possible he is changing the energy of the attacks, rather than simply blunting their impact. Magneto seems to be able to sense the changes in energy fields that predict such attacks, allowing him to shield energy attacks as fast as lasers despite having little or no warning.
Electro-magnetic Sight: By concentrating Magneto can perceive the world around himself solely as patterns of magnetic and electrical energy. He can perceive the natural magnetic auras surrounding living beings, as well.
Electromagnetic Spectrum Manipulation: Although Magneto's primary power is magnetism, he seems to have some ability to project or manipulate any form of energy that is related to magnetism. He can fire and absorb bolts of electricity and of pure magnetic force, reverse lasers and other forms of radiation or energy when fired at him, create enough intense heat as infrared radiation to destroy a metal door, and become invisible by deflecting visible light around his body, as he is able to manipulate the entire electromagnetic spectrum. (He has also dispersed a "flame cage" created by the original Human Torch, but whether he had simply expanded his personal force field or employed something else entirely is unclear.) However, Magneto almost always uses magnetism, so perhaps it is more difficult for him to manipulate other forms of energy.
Gravitakinesis: Magneto has the ability to manipulate gravitational fields possibly via gravitomagnetic effects. He can open wormholes through spacetime. In addition, he can create anti-gravity fields and does so whenever he levitates non-magnetic objects. When the imposter Xorn was disguised as Magneto, he increased his powers fifteen times over with the Kick drug, and the Stepford Cuckoos said that he was now powerful enough to 'do something to gravity and time'. However, Magneto tends to use magnetism.
Magneto also possesses some psychic abilities. Magneto has trained his mind extensively.
Telepathy: capable of displaying various psionic feats with the minds of others including reading and communicating thoughts over vast distances. Charles Xavier referred to Magneto's "latent telepathy" and used Magneto's help to break past the mental shields of Galactus. It should also be noted that initially their attempts were futile until Magneto became enraged at the prospect that Galactus might ignore them, and thus created a "surge," as Xavier put it, that forced Galactus to take note of them
Psionic Shield: possesses ability to create a mental barrier against psionic attack
Astral Projection: can project his astral form from his body onto astral planes or the physical planes. In the physical plane he can only travel in astral form over short distances. In the astral plane, he can mentally create psionic objects and manipulate the aspects of his environment.
Mind Control: He has claimed the ability to control minds but has not been seen to do so without the aid of one of his inventions. (Note: He has controlled minds without the device, but only through manipulating the iron in blood and redirecting its flows through the brain.).
Known Abilities: A mastermind, Magneto is a genius within various scientific fields. He is an expert on genetic manipulation and engineering, with knowledge far beyond that of contemporary science. He can mutate humans in order to give them superhuman powers, instill genetic mind-control, create adult clones of human beings, and manipulate the genetic structures of these clones during their development. He has designed magnetically-powered skycraft and spacecraft, complex robots and computers, and magnetically-powered generators. He has also created artificial living beings, space stations (said to possess technology even Reed Richards would envy), and machines that nullify mutant powers within a radius of several miles.
Magneto is a skilled strategist and hand-to-hand combatant.
Strength Level: Magneto possesses the normal human strength of a man his age (i.e., rejuvenated age), height, and build who engages in intensive regular exercise. However, using his powers to augment his strength, he can lift well in excess of 100 tons.
I just wanted to emphasize...THIS IS NOT A GAUNTLET....Magneto is not facing each one individually!!! He's facing ALL OF THEM AT ONCE! If this was a standard gauntlet, Magneto would clear it without too much problem (except for a couple probably), but this is Mags facing everyone at once...with Magneto blood-lusted!!!
