Green Lantern vs. Magneto

Started by supremthor26 pages

kyle would murder him jusy look at the shiite he does http://www.angelfire.com/bug2/rorschach33629/Kyle_Rayner.html

that guy has some good threads....hes the same one who made the Captain Atom thread right? other than the other ones he has made (the flash, Gl, Quasar, and Atom) do you know anyother sites with more respect threads?

and ya all that shows that a Gl is leagues above magneto

Kyle hold himself well against Parallax...impressive.

I wanna know what Demi has to say....He knows more about Mags than anyone I know....

Long thread, and I haven't read it all, but my vote would go toward any good GL (any GL, really).

Mags is bordering on cosmic/herald level with his power, but he's not quite there by most accounts (though with some of his recent stuff I suppose you could make that argument somewhat). GL's on the other hand, are definitely among that crowd.

And the blood trick wouldn't work. Any GL worth his salt has, at times, control over reality itself. Hell, Alan doesn't age and any GL has his costume because of the power of his ring. So sure, they have blood which has traces of iron in it, but Mag's attempting it would likely be shrugged off little trouble (similar to how GL's generally shrug off telepaths, when technically they have no inherent telepathic ability).

And beyond that, yes the Surfer/GL crossover was a good matchup for a GL (note that Kyle isn't even considered the best of the Gl's...that distinction would go to probably Hal, possibly Alan)....and no one would hesitate to put Surfer quite a bit beyond Magneto.

Looks like GL wins until proven otherwise.

Magneto controls light. He simply takes a metal spear, absorbs all colors of the EM spectrum except yellow, and tosses it at a GL from behind. Before the GL supporters jump in with the "yellow weakness doesn't work" argument...it DOES. A GL has to have the will to overcome it, but what good is will when you don't even see the attack coming?

If Polaris was a match for Hal, and Magneto > Polaris, then I can see Magneto taking a decent majority.

Can Magneto manipulate matter? GL turns him into flowers and calls it a day.

Are you sayig that Magneto turns a metal spear into a yellow spear? I dont get what youre trying to say. Plus the ring would most likely let the GL know of a unknown potential attack.

When has a GL ever done that to an opponent??? Would have come in handy against Deathstroke... 😆

I'm saying that Magneto can exploit the ring's weakness to yellow in all kinds of ways to get through the forcefield. By the time the ring alerted a GL to an attack, and the GL prepared his willpower for it being specifically yellow (they have to concentrate)...it would already be too late.

The GL ring turns off Mags powers and encases him inside the core of a planet.

End of battle.

Gl has turned energy blasts to confetti. Also shrunk Shaggy Man to the size of a apple. Hes even turned fellow JL members to energy. You prove nothing by brining up GL being beat by Deathstroke.

Explain how Mags would exploit the rings weakness. You make it seem as if he knows of the weakness. Plus you mkae it seem as if the GL takes seconds to concentrate on overcominf yellow. They have to concentrate to do everything they do and its pretty much instant.

But they concentrate longer to overcome yellow...and they have to know it's yellow.

Magneto roasts them in yellow-tinted microwaves before they get a chance to do anything to him. End of story.

Show where they have to concentrate to overcome it. And please tell how Mags would even know of the prior weakness.

Roast them in yellow-tinted microwaves? Even when the weakness was still a problem, GL has shielded against a supernova. Guess what color it was. Supernovas yellow >>>>>>>Mags yellow.

Have to go to work. Be back later.

Board rules state that characters have basic prior knowledge of each other. So opponents know that Superman is weak against kryptonite, for example (but not that he's Clark Kent).

The GLs specifically said to one of the new recruits that the yellow weakness is there, but with enough will it can be overcome. In order to apply your will to something, you'd have to know it's there and focus. it's clearly been shown to be a more difficult feat. Magneto suddenly radiating them with yellow-colored lethal radiation won't give them that opportunity.

A supernova isn't ACTUALLY yellow. It's just drawn that way. And even then, like I said, if you know what you have to do...you can apply enough will to overcome it. So if Magneto said, "I'm going to radiate you with yellow any second now", a GL could steel himself for it and it wouldn't work. For Magneto to just DO it, on the other hand, removes it from the realm of willpower altogether.

hmm Kyle didn't need to concentrate, Magneto ownage day I feel 😉

Each forcefield has to be backed by a certain amount of will. It takes more for yellow. Otherwise it still penetrates, which is what Magneto will do by simply taking willpower out of the equation. Similar to how a SHARK was able to break through Hal's forcefield.

The GL ring jsut shifts him to another Universe it can do this Forcefield and all. Magneto dies.

I can't believe this went on for 12 pages.

GL throws up a field to block all of his attacks by having it break down magnetic waves as a basic building block, changes Magneto's DNA to make be a non mutant, and homosexual while he's at it[since they say the capacity to become one is in the genes.], then creates a green duplicate of Ultimate Collusus and ****s him sideways with it.

Seriously, against Green Lantern, it's two different leages.
Everything in Magneto's powerset, the ring the can do, and then some, and then some.

Fool! None shall defeat Magnus! But mostly just cause I only pick fights with people smaller than me...

Yeah, I go down. Hard.

its ok its not your fault
