Read the scans...
He reads motorfunction precursors, not just thoughts
I did before, but thanks for posting them again. I was just putting everything out there about Midnighter that might be relevant.
Motorfunction precursors are brain impulses. The synaptic pulse is what precedes motor function. Midnighter has shielded his implants from telepathic intrusion. Ergo, the thing that sends signals to his muscles. Therefore, it's reasonable to assume that X can't predict him because his neural implants are unreadable.

I did read that issue, that's the one where Songbird says something like, you can predict this soundwave, but that doesn't mean there's a damn thing you can do about it.
They've always billed X as a low level telepath who uses his ability to predict his opponents moves. They just added that part in that issue.
And as was stated, Midnighter has tagged speedsters before, he moves faster than Speedster's can keep up with, etc....

Thats his power, stated right there, ignoring stated fact is rediculous.
might as well say "I like midnighter so he wins"
No he does not, he tagged a speedstir whoopy capt done it, robin down it nw done it, hell wolverine did it who X has beaten.

It would if X had not done this to both wolverine and black widow who both posses strong mental blacks. wolverine been able to shrug off emma before to assume midnighters can is srtetching.
Ok. I'm still of the opinion that he could block any telepath. Jackson King couldn't read his mind, and he's a mid-level telepath. Similar to Emma in scope. Simply assuming that a person would be affected when there's literally no evidence to suggest that they can be is a bit overzealous, don't you think?
No, I actually read it a couple days ago, since you only posted the part where Widow was shooting at him, not the part when Songbird takes him down, or when they tag Nick Fury, or any of the other scans I saw that you didn't post, since I saw the whole thing.
I never said he didn't do that, what I said was, they've always billed him as a low level TP who predicts movement, they just added the new part in that issue, I never said it wasn't valid.
I can post scans of Midnighter being awesome if you'd like.
And as far as I know, X has never fought anybody with cognitive capabilities, skill, speed, and all the other aces that Midnighter has.
And I would appreciate it if you stop trying to undermine my intelligence.

Wolverine block emma, jean ect. powers workm against him He proven his TP resistences much more then midnighter. also x read black widow who was unable to be read by any of osborn people and x read her like a book. to assume midnighter can block his powers seem to be wishful thinking to be honest.

Is this speedster your talking about the random fodder that Midnighter blitzed in the first arch than displayed nothing other than flight speed... or the idiot that chased Midnighter into an air-duct and collided with his leg?

Okay, put it like this, barring the speed and X's telepathy, Midnighter is clearly superhuman, unharmed after getting kicked over a kilometer. Nothing X will do can even hurt him, and eventually, X will get tired, while Midnighter will still be going strong. What will X do then?
And Wolverine has been unharmed after being punched across state lines, and kicked from the United States into Georgia (the country).
Midnighter's healing factor is tame, it isn't nearly fast enough to give him a significant advantage. If X gets eviscerates him, it will end the fight. If he works arteries and bleeds him out, he will end the fight. If he hits anyone of Midnigher's major organs, he will end the fight. If he removes a limb, he will end the fight.

My point stands. There exists no evidence of Mner being read by a telepath, and he has specifically altered his implants to block such intrusions.
But I know how much you like to rep certain characters, so I'm not going to get into a fruitless "yuh-huh, nuh-uh" type of debate that neither one of us has the evidence to prove beyond doubt.
