Storm is not winning this fight. She has human reaction time and human durability.
I dare you to prove me wrong. I love the X-men and would very much like to see her win. But I know that she can't, and that's okay. I'm still sleeping well at night.
Namor has superhuman speed and reflexes. Yes, GS, the speedblitz would work superbly. He knocked out Hulk in one hit utilizing his sped blitz. I just maaaaaaaaybe think it'll work 1000000x better against a human-durable Storm.
Did I forget to mention class 100 superhuman strength?
You need to open your mind and think about the circumstances of the battle.
Storm and Namor have the same spped rating in the air so a speed blitz will not be that effective. Speed blitzes work only when facing an opponent slower and less manoeuvrable than you. That is not the case here.
This has nothing to do with me being an Xmen fan so dont infer that to be the case. Its because i genuinely believe Storm could win this battle.
If you look through the thread you'll see that Namor has been left helpless in vortexes of wind before. Storms winds are under her psionic control and as such can adapt to his movements with a thought. Namors strength is only useful if he has something to apply it to. Caught up in wind that will not be the case. You need only refer back to the scans on this thread.
Im well aware of Storm having human durability as you'd know by reading my posts. I dont need you to point this out to me. Ive already said that the major factor in this battle is how close they start off from each other.
As for her reflexes i never said Storm had superhuman reflexes again i suggest you make closer note of my contributions to this thread. Storm as with any fighter, has her refkexes honed to above the average humans. I have previously listed examples of her reflexes i dont need to do so again.
In Xtreme X-men she claimed to be able to anticipate an opponents movements by reading their bodys electrical impulses. So that plus her own honed reflexes helps negate the advantage Namor has in reflexes.
Plus theres the fact that they are the same speed rating so it really isnt as straight forward as you're making out.
No KG Namor isnt Colossus however durability wise they have the same rating. If anything id give the edge to Colossus because Namors bios in the past have stated him to have limited durability. Either way theyre close in terms of durability if not in strength therefore if Colossus can get hospitalised by wind propelled projectiles so to can Namor.
Also if Storm can easily restrain a class 50 with no hint of strain, with effort she could do the same to Namor or at least prevent him from getting airborne and have him on the defence clinging to the ground. As also depicted by scans on this thread.
Namors strength decreases at a faster rate when exerting himself as well. Storm can aid this process by dehydrating him. Significantly reducing the ambient humidity in the air whilst increasing the temperature.
Either way this battle isnt as clear cut as some of you are making out. Whether thats due to naivete or because you cant be bothered to explain yourselves its really not that simple.
