Storm vs. Scarlet Witch

Wanda's powers sometimes puzzeled me because how they portrayed it on X-Men Evolution, they made it seem like Wanda could do anything. The power of manipulating probabilities or something like that right? When with her witch hexes . . . . . . but how could Wanda take away Storm's powers?

Wanda is a living plot device. Her powers are so vague she can essentially do whatever the writer wants her to do and get away with it.

Although the Evolution show exagerrated her powers, it wasn't TOO far off. She can basically make almost any improbable event happen.

Wanda can take away Storm's powers with a flick of her wrist. Just by hexing her.

Well, when you put it that way!

But yeah that's what I thought. Wanda can basically do anything, kind of like a one woman army. Since she can do all of that, she should be basically invincible.

Way back in a particularly vicious confrontation with the X-men of the day, Magneto used his control of magnetism to re-direct a bolt of lightening created by Storm away from him and back at Storm

Storm lost the battle of control over that particular energy with Magneto. As a result she was almost killed by her own bolt of lightening when he redirected it.

no,no, no, my friend you are mistaken. yeah magneto turned the lightning bolt against storm and fueled it through her whole body and amped up the power. storm wasn't concentrating on protecting herself from the bolt, she was concentrating on suffocating magneto. even w/out concentration storm lasted a long time against the amped up bolt magneto was using. he literally doubled the power of the bolt and sent it through all of storms body and she still survived even though she wasn't concentrating on protecting herself from the bolt. an when the bolt was redirected it wasn't hers anymore because magneto had control over it, because storm didn't have full concentration on the bolt, she ahd it on suffocating maqgneto. thr reason she couldn't against magneto was because he literally tripled the power of the bolt and gained control over it. storm can defeat classic scarlet

There's nothing about doubling lightning there.

I agree. Her limits are too vague to come to any specific outcome.........

Wanda's powers are overrated just because of their nature. If someone says Spiderman has superstrength, you don't immediately assume he can bench press planets. Wanda struggles withkeeping a building from collapsing

some people just view her as a goddess because that was what she viewed herself as, and so did half of africa.
