Since when can Magma hide in the earth? Her elemental power deal with fire of earth (magma and lava) she can cause tremors because she controls the magma below. With a combination of rain and arctic wind Storm can speed up the erosion process, not that that's an issue, Magma is immune to only fire, heat and solid projectiles (because they melt when they hit her heat aura), a lightning bolt could still fry her, not the heat it creates, but the electricity.
Magma is one with the earth like Storm is one with the elements.
I don't think she can be hurt by anything elemental like Storm can be hurt by fire.
Magma would fry her. Even if Storm could defend from the blasts with tornados eventually she would tire.
Magma can draw the power of the earth and generate her own bodys fires.
She's more on par with Magneto than a fight with Storm. She stood down Magus Warlocks Father on a totally forign planet.
Originally posted by LordKaosDidn't you read the issue in which the X-Men tried to go against Elias Bogan? Magma enclosed some of them in rock to shield them against heat, pressure and asphyxiation, which she was immune against, and traveled with them through the earth and magma rivers below L.A....no problem for her. She is even able to "see" through the earth via vibrations and small tremors.

I think Storm and Magma are pretty equally empowered, one with control over the elements of the sky and one with control over the elements of the earth.
Both can hurt one another, but Storm is better able to evade Magma's attacks than Magma Storm's attacks. Storm will certainly win, unless Magma hides under the earth and causes massive and explosive eruptions all over the place to perhaps randomly hit Ororo.
Magma controls the very "blood" of the earth, if worst comes to worst then she could potentially kill them both by manipulating and destroying the earths core. Both of them aren't able to breath in space therefore they both die.
But if I had to choose one, it'd go like this:
Storm would hit to the skies, while Magma creates a fissure and buries underground protecting herself while she hides in the Earths Magma. Last time I checked, Storm can still be burnt. So all Magma needs to do is create massive eruptions everywhere, which would in turn heat the air, and eventually burn Storm.(Sure Storm can try and use her powers to keep the temperature down, but she'll eventually get hit by an erruption or by a gush of hot air. After that Storm falls to the ground and is encased in liquid Magma.(Probably the worst death for someone who is claustrophobic)
Storms weather powers won't be able to put out the Earths magma(At tops it'd dry the surface of the Magma), and won't be able to reach Alison/Amara who is using it as protection.
It's basically a fight between a person who is hidden within the Earth who is able to attack from anywhere around the Earths surface vs a person who is out in the open( in the skies) whose attacks cannot reach their target.
If Magma is hiding in the ground then she would be attacking blind. Storm flies at over 400mph and can flash freeze in seconds she would easily be able to avoid any attacks Magma makes whilst Magmas using the defensive strategy you mention.
Your strategy sounds extremely speculative. Have you seen Magma employ or demonstrate power enough and range enough to control the Earths core in its entirety? I certainly havent. As such thats not a viable strategy. It was ridiculous anyway as it resulted in both of their deaths lol.

That's why I said potentially, if she went to the centre of the Earth and screwed around with it then she could certainly mess it up, or even make it unstable.
And all Magma needs to do is cause random erruptions everywhere, Storm will eventually get hit, sure it may take sometime, but Storm cannot keep it up forever.
Like I said before, there's no way Storms attacks are able to reach her. However Magma even though attacking at random, still has a chance to connect either in hot air, or as an explosion.
BTW GS Remember that Sersi/Vulcan thread where you wanted evidence, did you see the scans?

In terms of raw energy generatable, Storm is more powerful than Magma hands down. Magma isnt invulnerable to Storms pffensive, especially when you consider that Magma isnt going to start the battle underground. That would qualify as prep. As such soon as the battle commences Storm can either strike her down with lightning or sweep her off her feet with wind.

That would work both ways though, Storm and Magma would both be on the ground.

Speculation. On top of that said strategy involves death for them both. Therefore it is not a win for Magma.

Random undirected attacks can be easily avoided considering her flight speed and her atmospheric powers which she could use to protect herself by the time any projectiles reach her. Not a good strategy and not one thats solid enough to give Magma a majority. Far from it.

Magma hasnt demonstrated range enough for you to convince anyone that she'll be able to hit Storm when Storms flying at over 400mph and can easily fight from the upper atmosphere if she desires. Please remember that Magma doesnt have prep time so she wont be starting off underground. Soon as the battle starts, one lightning bolt and its all over.

I cant remember what youre talking about. Honestly, i cant even remember participating in that thread lol.
