Doesn't he currently have the standard powerset of Chamelon?

At this point I've seen him use the powers of Mar-Vell and the Nega Bands, Hercules, Quicksilver, Ironman, and I'm not sure who all else. He's currently supposed to be able to use the powers of anyone he's adapted too, but I'm not sure which heroes Marvel will "forget" about.

He could also use Superman powers against him

That list is actually a little inaccurate. It may be theoretically possible that he'd have all those powers but he's never been shown to have actually adapted the powers of half the people on that list. Who ever is updating that thing is just listing everyone who ever appeared in a book with him, he's not actually checking to see whether or not SA actually adapted their powers.

Didnt phyla-vell defeat this version?

Yeah she did. But then again it WAS in her first solo miniseries, and unless I'm mistaken he'd already beat her and Moondragon at the same time twice in the series before she actually managed to to pull a win against him.

Not to mention the fact that there was more than a little PIS going on in that fight IMO considering the fact that she used the whole "conflicting logic" thing to somehow mess with his head so she could get close enough to take him out. I'm sorry but a super computer with the combined intellect of guys like Reed Richards and Hank Pym and the Cosmic Awareness of Mar-Vell should NOT lose his mental faculties due to a logic problem...

Does he always seem that... obsolete? Not to downplay the character, but it seemed to me like he was only using machine logic and not anything else. Also, if he couldnt use his imagination, then how would he be capable of tapping into such an abstract, non machinelike concept as cosmic awareness? I dont know alot about the character, just asking.

Don't ask me for the specifics, the guys that built him are a lot smarter than I am 😆 . But I CAN say that despite his lack of imagination, he's used Mar-Vell's cosmic awareness on at least three occasions now. And his strictly using machine logic is part of the PIS I was talking about. SA has the ability to mimic AT LEAST three different characters at a time, but when Quasar took him down at the end he'd stopped using pretty much everything but her own powers and his own natural abilities. "Forgetting" to use powers and abilities during the big fight at the end is damn near the definition of PIS...

Hmmm... I see your point.

Personally, Ive never seen why all power mimicers are not higher on the list than they are.

Amazo, sa, all of them. Its really pis that they can be beat in the first place. Because the way I see it, if something can copy anythings abilities by being near it, then technically, shouldnt it be more powerful than anything that it faces?

Anyway, what abilities is sa fighting superman with?

SA for the win.
on his way to the fight he bumped into Hal, who introduced him to his good friend Norrin Rad and then they had a piss-up with Kyle and The Hulk.

No moonstone. And it's classic Scarlet Witch that he copied, not the uber version.
