I don't think they've ever had a run-in. But Magneto finally got around the "ceramic" Sentinels by looking "through" it and disrupting the circuitry. He correctly postulated that no machine can run without a conductor for sending 0s and 1s. Those must be delivered electrically, and he harnessed that to disrupt its programming. That same concept would work against Nimrod. But, like I said, he'd have to strike fast and take him out immediately before he adapts.
i agree with most of this, besides the "several nukes" part... unless you are talking about extremely extremely small nuclear weapons.
Thor has survived a nuke going off before. So I assume it would take more than one.
also, you dont think thor can do anything that nimrod cant adapt to, but you think magneto can??? i find that highly suspect considering thors versatility is high also.
It's not so much that I'm saying that Magneto is more versitile. It's more that the nature of Magneto's power is such that he could exert more destructive influence on Nimrod faster than Thor can. Thor would be all, "Hold ye, vile creature, lest thou feeleth the might of Mjolnir". Then he'd proceed to try to hammer Nimrod to death, and blah blah blah, which just makes it more likely that Nimrod would take Thor out. If Thor cuts loose with some disintegrating blast to start with, then he'd win.
The key in both cases is that you'd have to take out Nimrod IMMEDIATELY. Magneto can do it because it's more his style. Thor...not so much.
