No. Only for the first fight. Think it was some sort of self-imposed limitation, since he had been living in a metal prison (what a great mother...) his entire life.

If it's lop-sided, it's lop-sided for the telepaths. How is anyone going to hurt proteus? He's a purely psionic entity, and immune to telepathic control. (indeed, iirc, attempts to affect him hurt the telepath)
He's shown reality warping on AT least the city-scale. And there's no reason he can't turn the entire team into bananas right at the start of the fight. The only reason he hasn't done it to the x-men, and all the other teams trying to stop him, is because he has no real interest in hurting them.
Sentry might be able to hurt him, since he taps into an energy source more fundamental than psionic energy. But if spectre can't, then I think proteus wins by himself. He's like franklin richards with no physical form to harm.
