"telepathy is always resisted."

Yes just like Sue has already beat Emma so why not again.

No, that you being so far up the FF that you can't see logically.

I'm not even saying they'll win, so let's nip that one in the bud. I'm trying to judge the fight with all its possible variables. You know, debates and stuff.

Claiming something is fact doesn't make it so.

That's true. It's also not what I said, so it's irrelevant.

So now obviously I'm the one misunderstanding again. I must have backed you into the same corner I had AC backed into, for you to try and attack me like that.

I saw through AC's ploy, just as I now see through your ploy.

Or maybe you just tend to misunderstand and then refuse to reassess what you are talking about. Lest we forget the edited post a while back.

If everybody could resist psionic attacks then why don't they? Why are people knocked down instantly?..

Look up resistance, then come back.

Juggernaut's helmet shields him from psionics. Why swould it need to if what you said was true?

As above.

Originally posted by Creshosk

Juggernaut without the psionic sheilding from his helmet is taken out instantly by a psionic. Obviously there is no resistence there.

No obvious resistance. Doesn't change the many instances in which people have resisted mind control.

Say it with me: Plot device. Plot. Device.

every comic book has plot devices.
what's so hard to understand?
Sue has more experience in combat.
Sue has more physical training.
Why would it be impossible for her to get the drop on Emma?

Slightly ridiculous to say that though isn't it?

If Emma won, it wouldn't be a plot device, but more the reality of the immutable forces of the universe rectifying the stupidity of comics?

Naw. From when it last happened. And every other time.


Isn't the case though is it? It's a possibility. Why are people acting as if this possibility is an inevitable fact?

Because it's Emma's only power. Ain't like she has lots of options on how to fight the FF, here. So I'm thinking there are good odds on a mind blast coming their way. And given that they have 0 resistence, I'm thinking a mindblast is going to do some serious damage.


Too many variables to act as if there is only one outcome, which is the only point I am making.

True. Emma may decide to turn diamond first and slug it out with Thing.

But I doubt that.

Yeah Emma talked so Sue had time.
Then they fought and who lost. It isn't like a telephone pole fell on Emma knocking her out just as she had victory in her grasp. Sue straight up beat her.

Because I don't agree with you I'm misunderstanding you?

Or is the problem I'm understanding what you're saying even if that's not directly what you are saying?

I know what reistance is.

Mind control is not the same thing as mind blast. as Demigawd pointed out.

Bingo.

Emma talked instead of acting.

There are 'good odds'. I'm not even saying there aren't- can we stop the cycle of misunderstanding here?

I'm not saying this wouldn't happen- just that it's not guaranteed. You know, imagination and all that.

Because Emma was talking instead of acting, thus giving Sue more time, obviously Emma is slower. . . Because there was action taken specifically to give Sue more time. . .

Sue with time is faster than Emma.

See the problem?

Why leave out the rest or not comment on it because you can't argue against it. All you say is that Emma mind rapes everyone before they have a shot when Sue has already beat her by herself. There are just as many scenarios where Sue beats Emma as Emma beating Sue. Infact the only way is for emma to get the drop on Sue first.

Imagination is fine, but you don't see me saying "everyone has resistance to Sue's powers", do you?

No, you don't.

You don't see you saying "Everyone has resistance to Emma's powers" do you?

Oh wait.

"telepathy is always resisted."

Yeah, you do.

Because the rest of it would have been "see above"

Not without circumstances she hasn't.

I'm still not convinced that Sue is faster, since it was Sue with extra time versus Emma.

No, because you're actually ignoring me, due to ignorance and/or stupidity.

Oh. Got it now. You KNOW what I'm saying, even when I'm not ACTUALLY SAYING IT! Genius!

Be a bit of a wait wouldn't it? I do read X-Men all the time.

It sure isn't! Now back to the actual fight.

"telepathy is always resisted."

Yeah, you do.

Yes, and people are always resisting telepathy, successfully or not. Stop bringing it up, it all centres around your misunderstanding of 'resistance'.

See above.

Who is to say Sue is slower than Emma in their powers. Telepathy works fast but they have to concentrate still meaning that there is always a time frame where telepathy isn't simply as fast as thought. Sue can be just as fast as Emma in activating her power. Now in a straight up fight between their powers who overcame who. Don't give me Sue had time tell me who when they powers locked came out on top.

ok then, we agree. The X-team has good odds of mindblasting FF out of the fight. Therefore they're the odds on favorites to win, aren't they?


I'm not saying this wouldn't happen- just that it's not guaranteed. You know, imagination and all that.

Again we agree! There are infinite possibilities as to what can happen. Like I said, Emma might decide to turn to diamond and duke it out with Thing. Johnny might just decide to fly around and play field general. Galactus might just show up and kill them all.

Imagination is fine, and you can stalemate a debate forever with enough imagination, but ultimately, it's about where the greatest odds lie.

And the greatest odds lie with all four members of the FF unconscious from one hell of a mindblast.

It was about as much an indicator of how combat between them would go as a Wolverine fanboy saying Wolverine could beat Magneto because he gutted him while Magneto was doing something else. Emma threatened Sue. Sue knocked out Emma. It's what we call a suckerpunch around these parts.

Now because I don't agree with you I'm ignorant or stupid?

Nice improvement.

Because you can say more than you're letting on you knw. You don't HAVE to be blunt and say something straight up.

I know what you're saying because I can read between the lines.

Then why are you ignoring what happens with juggernaut for example?

Originally posted by newjak86

The action or being of opposing something. Like Juggernauts helmet opposes Psionic attacks perfectly, thus becomeing immunity, but his exposed mind has no resistance, which is why he's taken down instantly after his helmet is removed when a telepath attacks him.

So why would she be trying to contro when whes trying to put them down?
