Her forcefield's resistance against telepathy and telekinesis always struck me as one of those situations like Cap's shield's resistance against magnetism.
It's a completely binary notion but you have instances of it going either way.
Unless it's been revisited recently, should we really expect Sue Storm just entrapping Cassandra Nova in a forcefield bubble leaving Nova helpless though? I'd tend to think not. But happy to be disabused of such a notion.
Sue still needs to eat and sleep... eventually her concentration will wane. And Cassandra can exist as just an astral entity without her physical body... invisible, undetectable even to other powerful psychics...
And Sue's forcefields are iffy when it comes to blocking out telepathy in the first place...
So all-in-all, eventually Cassandra can just win via attrition.

right. or the cuckoos. we don't have anywhere near the disparity in overall power so we don't give either the benefit of the doubt. assuming the cuckoos can't tp a skyfather doesn't somehow mean sue doesn't need proof she can keep out cassie
if you think she can take cassie out first we're all happy to see it.
Basing it on 'overall power' just seems weird. You're just basing an argument on 'status' (Ymir has fought Odin( and without needing any feats, just go hmm yep he can take Skyfather level TP attacks.
Sue has faced telepaths before (so the type of energy). She has faced Skyfathersand above before (so the magnitude of energy). She has even reorientated countless photons AFTER they had been fired whilst under immense strain:
And bending lasers after they've been fired:
Her reaction speeds are topnotch, plus she can attack and defend simultaneously (so Nova would get distracted by getting brain bubbled etc).

the argument is entirely different. assuming a skyfather entity can defend against a tp attack is vastly different from assuming sue can defend against an uber psi. I don't think it's odd at all to assume certain abilities based on status. Odin. Thanos. Galactus. all have proven to be powerful psi's when at one point not too long ago they had no feats to support it. if we assume otherwise it becomes a no limits fallacy and some low level psi takes down Ymir. I mean the cuckoos wouldn't even need to combine to take out ymir, right? THAT's way more weird to me. without direct evidence to the contrary, some assumptions can be based in common sense.
as for the fight--i was legit curious. I'm not assuming it's impossible for sue to win it. just dubious.
Is it not also, then, a no limits fallacy for Ymir?
Look at how powerful Odin is and all the different things he can do
Ymir fights him
Ymir therefore is....resistant to all the things Odin can do?
Replace Odin with the Griever at the end of all things, and Sue with Ymir. Especially when Sue actually has feats like taking Emma Frost out and shielding (different time, obv, but I don't want to appear disingenous) against planetary telepathy.

not a no limits for ymir at all since i'm not asserting he can take anything more than Odin level tp. resistant to things Odin can do? probably most of them given their history. like surtur.
and your feats are fine. maybe they would be enough and sue wins it. I don't know who wins. but i'm WAY more likely to grant high end characters the benefit of the doubt than I am normal characters like sue. assuming ymir can't be taken out by a single cuckoo makes WAY more sense than claiming a single cuckoo can take him out. and that's the crux of it.
you feel you have enough proof to suggest sue wins
