Gotta agree there. I prefer Storm is she is likely more powerful than Polaris, however Polaris' ability to erect shields is what gives her the win here. With the city setting as well which would limit Storms efficiency, whilst giving Polaris practically unlimited ammunition id have to give it to her. 馃檨
Storm's biggest offense (lightning) would be pretty useless right? Unless Polaris is caught off guard...I don't know how well Storm would fair against tons of metal building parts, cars, etc being hurled at her; while Polaris has her own shields...Storm's the better combatant overall though...I'd give it to Polaris 6/10...
I could see Storm pulling a win if she surrounded Polaris in a pitch black fog, she would then put her shields up, but if Storm could affect the atomosphere inside Lorna's shield bubble (raising or lowering the temperature extremes) forcing Polaris to drop her shield; it would be over for her...but I still give the majority to Polaris...

Yeah Polaris could absorb and redirect Storms lightning but as we've seen in the past Storm can eventually generate more than P can work with and overload her. However for the aforementioned reasons this situation favours Polaris. Id give it to her 8/10
If only someone would give Storm the ability to generate energy shields. 馃檨 Come on Chris Claremont. Upgrade my b*tch!!! 馃槧
actually galacticstorm, storm can erect energy shields. and bitca, storm can also affect the insides of a persons shield as well so it is completely plausible that she could affect the inside of polaris's shields. and i didn't see the part where is stated the fight takes place in new york city, that right there basically gives the win to lorna. while i think storm is more versatile, and overall more powerful, the battle surroundings give polaris the majority and edge in this fight making her win the majority. i agree with my original statement that storm wins some fights, it's just that polaris wins more.
I give it to Storm only because Storm has faced Magento and survived, she knows full well what Polaris can do and won't make any of the mistakes she made with Magneto. Lorna can redirect her lightning blasts, but Storm can absorb and redirect electromagnetic energy too. We've seen Storm pull off some very big feats, and all of them have been when she is in full control of herself and emotions, an unbridled Storm can reawaken the ice age.

Even though you agreed with me (huh, planets must be in allignment), I'd actually have to say that Polaris is more powerful. Her mutant ability to control magnetism the way that she does is superior even to Storm's weather manipulation abilities.
