I lean towards Storm in this fight. Why? Because she had a mohawk for a while. You know she's tough.
I have actual reasons but the mohawk is more fun.
6/10 Storm
And just for the record: Beta Ray Howard is a good man and I'm not just saying that because we're on the same team. He's not racist and anybody who would accuse him of that are clearly uninformed.

Wow, a really interesting and informative thread deteriorated into childish name calling. It's a shame really. I was learning quite a bit about both characters.
And for the record, BRH you DID pull the race card first. 😘

ok, that is a fair question.Storm COULD do something similar to this, she could create something akin to TMS (transcranial magnetic stimulation). Basically, this is electrical impulses that are applied to the outside of the head that can shut down parts of the human mind. The technology is currently being used to simulate lesions in certain brain areas to better understand their function.
However, it is arguable weather or not this would work on Polaris, as her being a magnetic manipulator, she controls the things that make up the electricity. She could easily negate any charge in her brain. This may or may not happen, as the TMS could possibly disable her ability to think and react to these things.
Well, it IS a viable option, but hugely unlikely for a number of reasons (these are assumptions, please feel free to debate them)
1) The amount of electricity that would be used is so minute that it is arguable if Storm has that delicate control over it. Also, it has been brought up that electrical (which are the SAME THING as magnetic) attacks would be pretty useless against Polaris because she DOES have delicate control over the mechanisms of electricity (magnetism).
2) This is a unheard of tactic for Storm. If she had used it before, you would be saying it is her best ability in every thread.
3) The knowledge of TMS is very specialized. It is a BRAND new technology. It is arguable as to whether or not Storm would know of this process.
And, just a quick statement about this:
Electricity is Magnetism. For instance, imagine that you drive a car, but I am able to control all of its component part independent of one another.
You could drive, but i could turn the wheels wherever I wanted, Stop them, put you in reverse, pretty much do whatever I want. If storm uses electricity, she is driving the car, whereas Polaris would be able to disassemble that car piece by piece.
This is wrong.
There is no such thing as magnetic charge, only electric charge.
You do not need to control the things that "make up electricty" for magnetic fields. You only need electric charges.
If Storm controls electricity, she can also control electromagnetic fields, if she can control the voltage, she can control the strength of a magnetic field. She has demonstrated this on numerous occasions by manipulating planetary magnetic fields, and acting as a conduit and transducer of exotic energies.
Additionally:
Because Storm has a great deal of mastery over electricity, she can certainly generate photons of any wavelength. In nature, lightning generates light of all frequencies including gamma rays!

No, she's never "produced" it , but she has used a gamma gun to enhance her powers.
It has been said that she could produce any wavelegnth she wanted.
Storm can generate all manner of atmospheric electrical phenonmena. This includes electromagnetic fields, electrical fields, plasma, st.elmo's fire, lightning, ionization etc.
