of course, but that scan isn't a showing that he's going to be able to perceive superman attacking him from several sides at incredible speeds.

He's also been able to react to Northstar and Quicksilver using his body and he did that with ease.

superman is far faster than both of those, though.

No it doesn't but its going to help.

Of course he is but both those guys move at supersonic speed. Quicksilver stated that his speed was nothing to Mags which indicates he can cope with speeds far greater than Quicksilver. Quicksilver does actually have Flash lvl feats.

Magneto's reactions are superhuman, but they're nowhere close to SM's. However, he has shields and AoE attacks to counter the superspeed and stay in the fight. they do not mean he will necessarily though.

SM is much, much faster than the versions of QS and Northstar (at the speed he was going) Magneto handled so easily, but SM's average blitz isn't lightspeed or close to it either, so those showings are usable as evidence that magneto can handle a blitz in a forum fight.

to the extent that he can beat superman?

most of quicksilver's feats aren't even approaching flash or even superman level. saying that his speed is nothing is all well and good, but that's a pretty big assumption when the gap between quicksilver and superman is that large.

moving faster than mags can react is not going to make a difference?

It depends on how we are looking at it. Mags has also flown at light speed so a bull rush shouldn't be a hassle to him.

Now reflexes, I would give superman the edge in that department since I have yet to see mags move his limbs anywhere close tp 2000 mps BUT mags has reacted to nightcrawlers teleportation which is instant movement so supes reflexes will be a problem in the beginning but only for a short period of time imo.

his teleportation has been caught by cyclops.

also, 2000mps isn't his top speed.

Ok you did kinda miss the point though.

Yes because he's not going to just rely on that. He has shields, draining, K-nite radiation attack etc.

Yea but thats only part of my arguement. Northstar was able to travel 100 miles in 5mins and he wasn't even trying.

Honestly, I believe quicksilver combat speed is far greater than supes. Supes flight speed is greater though.

draining how?

he can't use kryptonite. he wouldn't even know how.

superman has travelled further and faster.

perceiving and reacting are different things.

building a city in seconds, causing sonic booms with every punch, tracking lightspeed signals, blitzing doomsday/mongul/bizarro/imperiex probes. that's just off the top of my head.

hell, even john byrne superman could react in microseconds.

What's the difference when his powers don't depend on how fast his body can react to the things he perceives, but on his mind where perception and reaction are pretty synonymous?

There's so many idiotic arguments here, I don't even know where to start.

(1). Magneto is not lightspeed. He has superhuman reaction time, but nowhere near lightspeed and mis-interpreting that scene doesn't change that.
(2).His reaction time isn't dependent on his body? What the ****?

If 2 was a reply to my post, then I think you need to slow down and read again.

If not, carry on.

Yes, I'm talking about you. Would you like me to take this step by step, or can you figure out the idiocy of what you said by yourself?

Quicksilver has over whelmed beings with his "combat" speed that has done evrything that you mentioned. While being in china with magneto, magento was pouring himself some coffee, quicksilver ran all the way from china, to new york, knocked on xavier door, wrote a note before xavier realized someone was knocking at the door, ran back to china before magneto finished pouring his coffee.

Quicksilver has also punched someone 50 times in one second.

That is why I am asking you, what's superman best combat speed feat. How many times can he punch someone in one second without us guessing?

and yes, to what phil said. reflex is based on your body too.

that feat you just named was piss poor compared to superman, tbh. superman once went to south america, stopped a volcano i think it was, and was back beside lois in the next panel. mere seconds had passed.

my estimate, in a second? hundreds if not thousands. easily.

He was tracking Captain Marvel at lightspeed. I'm not sure what you want to call it but clearly it's not illogical to think that he could react to somebody charging at him at lightspeed.

Not sure if you're refering to me.

I think MS's point is he doesn't use his body when he puts up his shields etc.
