Originally posted by GalacticStormCan you really see proud Namor resorting to that method to take storm out? Also that 9000 mile per hour figure is sounding a bit to much like speculation for my liking.
If you want to be cheap, like i said storm can lock on to namors leectromagnetic aura and shut down his heart. Next stage.
Can you see Storm shutting down people's hearts?
All I am saying, that Namor is not stupid. If he knows that he can't catch Storm, he is not trying to kill himself by attempting to do that.
And here is the counting thing:
And the record in throwing baseballs is about 100 mph. Let's assume that the pitcher is peak human strenght. That would be between 800/1000 pounds. Even if Namor would be able to lift 85 tonnes, that would be approximately 90 times better then the throwing speed of the best pitcher of the world. That would make him throw the baseball in 9000 miles per hour. Now let's say that Namor grabs an car. Throws it at Storm. The car weighs one ton. Namor would be able to throw it at about 1000-3000 miles per hour.
Brick doesn't weigh that much more then baseball.

Namor wouldnt be able to throw a brick or a car at those speeds im afraid. You were doing alright with the calculations up until you tried to directly apply themm to the bigger and much differently shaped brick and car. Those things are both far less aerodynamic than a baseball, they would travel through the air at a much slower rate due to friction.
Not only that but storm would no doubt be using winds in her battle with Namor so the speed either item would travel at is even further reduced from your calculations. Storm from 100s of feet up in the air would be able to avoid a car or a brick thrown at her. But all of this is assuming namor does that or even is given the chance to do that. Storm would no doubt want to take him out hard and fast. She would toss him about like a rag doll in her winds and propel wreckage at him.

K3Vil how the hell is Namor gonna speed blitz anyone at 60 mph? lol.

ha ha ha, speedblitz with a speed of 60 mph. well storm killed the hulk, is also a very good tactician, and has taken down wolverine and sabertooth hand-to-hand. she ain't that bad herself, as any x-men readerr would know.

Namor has superhuman reflexes and reaction time.
He can just throw various small objects at Storm that in the attempt to deflect them with wind, will be too busy to notic Namor speedblitzing her.
Actually Namor can fly faster than 60 mph.
Namorita, who's less powerful than her cousin, can keep up with Nova if he's flying around 150/200 mph.
What namorita can do means nothing im afraid. Namors speed as stated in previous bios and as shown in the most recent handbook is 60 mph. At that speed he isnt speed blitzing anyone. End of.

The brick would still move fast enough to hit Storm. And what if Namor just defeats Storm before she summons her winds to fly?
first of all she didn'tnotice the brick, and from the distance between them she can dodge it with ease. bricks are not as big as cars, bricks are much smaller, the chance he will miss is much greater. and yes, storm can simply shut down his heart, that would be on no consequence to her because she can just re-start it as she has done before many times. and namor ain't flash, he can't take her out faster than the speed of thought which is all it takes for storm to fly, and she prefers to fight in the air than on ground so more than likely she will fly. and seriously you think namor can speed blitz storm? he's 60 mph, storm does that for a warm-up while practicing flying

Youre making it sound like it takes a long time for her to fly. With a thought she summons winds to enable her to fly. She would be waay beyond namors range within seconds. He wouldnt be able to reach her quick enough flying at 60 mph im afraid.

But when he sees Storm moving away from his reach, I suppose that he would try to hit her with something that can still reach her...like an object...

So you could dodge brick thrown at you in 9000 miles per hour?Last time I checked, Storm was not moving at speed of thought.
And ive already told you it wouldnt be travelling at anywhere near that speed. Your calculations were based on a baseball. Unless namor finds some car sized baseballs lying around a car whatever he throws unless similarly aerodynamic just isnt going to go as fast as that.
no, but a thought is all she needs to activate her powers, and it will take a second to move. yeah if i were far enough away, saw the person pick the ball up and their body language told me they were going to throw something then yeah i could dodge it. the thing you are missing is that storm and namor will be separated, storm will see him go after the object and will see him pick it up, and his body language will give it away that he is throwing something at her because his body will make that motion

Well, what if he finds an areodynamically shaped object? An rock?
