And bone claw wolverine has sliced up Thanos before lol.
Storm without effort flies at the top speed winds naturally occur at which is around 300mph however she has before warped weather patterns to increase this speed dramatically to mach speeds. She is still faster and Namor is outclassed in the air. She would turn the skies against him and a flash freeze to his ankle wings would at least greatly inhibit his flight or render him temporarily flightless all together
I give it to Namor 7/10 times. Just in case Storm gets lucky with something. I say something, cuz it really doesn't even matter, what with her GIANT arsenal in which she can use to attack.
Lets humour you and say Namor could fly as fast as Storm. He's still no match for her in the air. That is her element. She would just turn the skies against him. Knowing Namor he would attack Storm head on to take her out quickly and that would be his undoing.
In the sky he is simply outclassed. Hurricane winds to scoop him up and smash him all over the place would suffice in themselves. Or Storm could flash freeze Namors wings to inhibit his flight, contain him within a vortex of hurricane winds while thinning out the air around him and raising the ambieent temperature around Namor. Storm has employed such tactics before. This would dehydrate and therefore weaken Namor. Sun lasers at this point would dfinitely make their mark or to finish him off slam him around a bit into the scenery.
If he could fly as fast as Storm (which I believe he can), he would hit her before he would have chance to do any of those things you said. Namor is as good flier as Storm, probably lot better with his hundred years of experience. He knows how to fly in different climates, natural disasters and other places. I don't think with the speed he is moving Storm would have chance to hit him. Storm has peak human reflexes because of his training with the X-Men. Namor has superhuman reflexes, good enough to dodge bullets from close. Namor reacts faster then she does.

I agree for the most part, that was a joke.
My problem here though is, when I remembered the colossus vs storm thread, HE had a small chance of winning.
Namor is more versatile and can gain air.
I'm not saying he's going to take her head on, he needs not. A good hit from namor renders storm ko'ed.
There isn't much she can do in terms of reaction time, especially if he tricks her during an attack.
Storm DOES do her weather consciously, meaning she can't just do them effortlessly, she'd wear down eventually.
Durability being the most important part of the match, and namor having the HIGH differeince there,,, storm can't cast her spells INSTANTLY, not the whirlwinds, they would have to generate first.
One of her best bets is conjuring a field, now if namor can go underwater, or hid, he has a SLIM chance of escaping, but in the water he gets stronger.
Which is why I find him a formidable foe for her.

Namor has no chance against Storm in the sky. His best chance would be to throw projectiles at her continuosly until she is taken out, however we know Namor just wouldnt do that because of his arrogance.
It takes Storm seconds to generate a hurricane so namor being of comparable speed really isnt good enough. What is all of this talk about reaction time. If storm was engaging Namor h2h then that would factor in but i think you boys have confused yourselves. Storms powers are controlled and executed psionically. Her powers are all directed and focused by her mentally so her reaction time doesnt really come into it. Namor would fly at her Storm would fly away from him, seconds later he would be engulfed in a hurricane initiated by Storms mental command. Then the various methods she can use to take him out are mentioned above.
CM what is all of this talk of spells? It is a mutant power it has nothing to do with magic it is the psionic manipulation of energy patterns. Her generation of lightning and sun lasers is virtually instantaneous, whereas hurricanes manifest in second or so.
Namors is more durable but Storms arsenal is capable of bypassing that durability. Namors arrogance will also make him engage Storm head on which will be his downfall
Knowing Storm she would take namor out as quickly as possible knowing how much he could harm her if given enough time. She would go all out and would be relentless. Namors arrogance would stop him from doing something such as throwing rocks from afar. What you're forgetting CM is the range of Storms power. Even if he did fly far away he would still be within the effective range of her power. She could still attack him very effectively from a long distance. That is the very reason why people like her and Magneto are given a 5 on the marvel energy projection ratings.
