She has a chance. The lasso gives her an automatic win. No matter what he turns into. Now if he can touch those bracelets and stay away from that lasso, he manages a stalemate. HE is not fast enough to touch her and should wouldn't be able to hurt him in the slightest.

Yes but while he'd be super hard, he'd also be told to sit down and dont' move, or to revert back to his human form. One question she coudl ask him. How do you really look. He turns back to his human form and bam, he knocked out cold.
Absorbing Man would beat her silly. He could become her lasso and be stronger and more durable than her. He could absorb light and fly around at light speed. He could absorb her bracelet shields, too. He could absorb her own strength if he wanted to and just have better durability.
I've only seen one person beat AM without using BFR or trickery.
Without PIS/CIS, Creel EATS her alive.

Cool to see another fan of Creel. Guy is f*#$ing hardcore.
To everybody else:
You can't really base a character on low feats though. I thought the rules were that you're taking the character at his best?

He said Odin could have removed him from the battlefield at any time, and he could've. He didn't say a thing about being beaten.
That was the only way Odin was able to beat him, BFR.
Seems like we've got an AM fanboy here on the loose without logic and realism to back up claims that AM can beat WW. Is AM fast enough to land a single blow against someone who is swifter than Hermes? Is AM strong enough to to knock out someone who is stronger than Hercules and has the strength and durability of the earth itself? AM has nothing except blunt force to work with. The kind of force that WW is actually invulnerable to. AM could pick up knives and hurl them but will they connect? Will he even get the chance? We can try saying that AM can outsmart Diana in a battle but then how can he? He's basically just a brawler with no brains. Diana has both the sight and wisdom of Athena. Not to mention the fact that she's got tons of combat and battle experience even against foes who are arguably more powerful than her where she either won or stalemated her opponent. I almost forgot about that magic lasso of hers. As someone already stated, whatever AM turns into is pretty much out of the equation now because the lasso under WW's control can revert him back to his true form. WW did that already against Martian Manhunter who is a lot more challenging an opponent for Diana than AM would ever be.

Bottom line, if Creel does something stupid like get himself turned into glass he'll lose. If he fights to even a fraction of his potential there's no way she can beat him.

Not normally. But it's a little known fact that AM can use his powers to absorb people's speed too...So you think he's kinda like WW? The thing is that you forgot to mention things like his ability to absorb minds at a distance, and take on the properties of energy as well.
So is AM...
Except that AM is completely capable of absorbing her mind or the mind of anyone nearby to increase his intelligence or even take over their body.
Except that he doesn't just take on the physical aspects of the things he absorbs, he take on their properties also. Deathstroke and Doomsday have both escaped the lasso, so it's not exactly foolproof.
