Chess Match! Beast vS Mr. Fantastic!

Who'd win between these 2 geniuses.

Timed or untimed.

Fantastic needs a MUCH better opponent than Beast.

Mr.fantastic is smarter then beast.

But has richards ever shown to be able to play chess?

Like who. Beast is one of the smartest man mutants in comics.

Are you saying Beast won't be a formidable opponent in a game of Chess against Reed?

I think in order to be good at chess, you have to have a certain strategic sense, in addition to intellect. Beast isn't a leader, he's not a military man, he's not a strategist or a tactician, and in all areas of science, he's Reed inferior.

You don't have to be smarter than Reed to beat him in chess. You just have to outthink him. In that sense, I think someone like Black Panther could beat Reed in chess, even if he doesn't have as much raw intelligence.

meaning guys like Cap America, Cyclops, and Batman, and Black Panther could beat Reed at chess. Its all strategy.

Reed checkmates that blue sucka in three moves.....

*slaps self for acting like moron*

How's this: Sage vs. Mr. Fantastic? Can sheer calculative skill take Reed down? I'd say Sage can beat everyone at chess.

Batman could. Cyclops and Cap are leaders than gifted strategists.

Slade and Midnighter could probably beat Reed.

Interesting... How's about Bats vs. Sage? Cause I think they could both own Reed. And no mind-reading, of course.

Wouldn't the flash have a chance since he suppose to think as fast as he runs
