Namor vs. Storm

Come on, she isn't THAT good in multitasking.

DC good try but shes merely getting out of harms way and after a time whilst backing off its a simple matter to use the weather effect shes already created to fly, to generate a hurricane to ground Namor or to slow him down in the air considerably before trapping him in a vortex. All it takes is a thought.

DC we're talking about multiples of milliseconds here. Not seconds. Namor will be off the ground faster than Storm but given that Storms of comparable speed yes she will react milliseconds slower than him but it will take quite a number of seconds to cross the distance, so Storm could very well get out of harms way and whilst backing off its a simple matter to create a hurricane.

So? She gets out of Namor's way, Namor with his superhuman reflexes and the deal of acceleration he has gained, just changes his direction and hits Storm in the back, breaking her neck and killing her.

Like in this pic:

He reacts in milliseconds and gets in the air before he drops on ground.

Here is also Namor being able to fly fast enough to actually pull the water with him. He gained that speed in a second, if not less time.

It doesnt work like that DC 😂

Namor isnt fast enough to be able to do that. He would need to be a lot faster in the air than Storm to pull off what youre talking about. In fact he'd have to be a whole speed rating higher than her LOL. Namor would be acting milliseconds faster than Storm so all this talk about him having far more acceleration and so on doesnt come into it. Plus the fact that they are of comparable speed just further scraps your scenario.

You can show all the scans of Namor having good reflexes as you want but they are all of a different context and dont reflect the circumstances of this battle. Theyre of comparable speed, Namor will act milliseconds faster however it will take seconds to reach Storm.

Storm will react slower albeit by milliseconds however she will be able to get off the ground before Namor reaches her positon. Then as they are of comparable speed its just a case of her backing off to give her that extra second to generate the velocity needed to subdue him.

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.

To be honest, I never actually said that you said these things. I was just throwing those points out there. Sorry if there was a misunderstanding, realy.

But still, I must say, as much as you don't want it to be true, even with Storms "ability to read the electrical signals of an opponent" added to her reflexes, it doesn't do anything close to negating Namor's.

And where in X-treme X-men was that, by the way? I have a lot of that series.

Yes, okay. If they were flying side by side, a race for example, they'd probably be close to the same speed. Or if they were having a contest to see how manueverable they were, they'd probably be close again.

But what we're trying to say, assuming they start off...Oh, I dunno...a football field's distance (360 feet) away from each other (I know that's not the original poster's words, but come on. You're trying to make Namor start off halfway around the world basically. And I'm still giving you a chance here). Which I think is pretty sufficient for this fight. As soon as the light turns Green, Namor would already be halfway across. I know for a fact that Storm cannot move that fast from the start. This would be as if a bullet fired at Storm from this distance. She'd have a much better chance of dodging it from this far, but that's still not nearly enough. And she'd probably see it coming, too, but it would be too late. Namor can move so fast to the point where she wouldn't even be airborne by the time he hit her.

Would you prefer a more distanced starting distance?

Okay...how about a quarter mile (1320 feet) then?

The same thing would happen. She's just not fast enough nor does she have high enough reflexes to dodge his attack. A speed blitz would in fact work here.

It works just like that, and the scans show that. Scans Namor tagging other trained warriors. People with better reflexes then Storm. Reacting in milliseconds. Getting to flight in same time. If you really say that reflexes don't have anything to do with flight, go ask that from an army pilot and come back again.

And the point here is, that IF they are as fast, BUT Namor can react faster in mid flight and has TWICE as much experience in air as Storm does, Namor is WAY better flyer.

All of what you said would be true if it werent for the fact that they are of comparable speed. They both go into this knowing they are going to fight. Soon as the bell rings Namors off because he reacts milliseconds faster than Storm. Storm reacts milliseconds later and is off as well. Namor simply isnt fast enough to reach Storm and take her out before she has moved from the spot. Im sorry but he'd have to be a whole speed rating higher to pull off that kind of stunt. Being of the same speed rating it just really wouldnt work like that. She would be able to move out of harms way before he reaches her. Its not like she has no knowledge of the battle.

It would take a decent amount of time to build up a good level of speed, Namor would not be flying anywhere near his limit at a football field sized distance for example. He would be off before Storm she would react later and then theyd both be off. Their comparable speeds would mean that Namor wouldnt really be able to close the distance in the seconds needed for Storm to generate a hurricane.

Do you even read the scans I post? Namor accelerated fast enough to PULL the water behind him, and putting it around Sunfire. Do you know what kind of speed that requires? And he gained that speed in a second.

As soon as the hurricane forms, Namor has already flown past it and going towards Storm. Since my scans show that he is able to cross the distance of 15-25 meters in a second (The fight with Sunfire).

Here, maybe this will show it better:

He would get to Storm in time.

Have you also noticed, that most of he time when Storm is making hurricanes, she is hovering one one spot and calling the forces of nature? It takes her many seconds to get the hurricane at full force.

I have never seen her trying to make a hurricane on the same time she is trying to avoid an guy who can knock the Hulk out with one punch.

The scans you presented just now mean nothing to the scenario of this thread. With the Sunfire battle, Namor flew up behind him without Sunfires knowledge allowing Namor to gain on him before Sunfire realised. They then engaged in aerial combat. None of that reflects this scenario. They both know they are going to battle each other Storm takes off later but Namor wouldnt have been able to build up enough speed in a second to cross a football field. They are both in the air. Unlike Sunfire Storm isnt going to be shooting energy projectiles at Namor. Which as the scans showed are easily dodged by Namor due to his reflexes and speed. Storm is going to turn the sky against him. Her arsenal operates over a far greater expansethan Sunfires, therefore Namors reflexes his ability to dodge projectiles and react faster than these opponents doesnt really come into this battle. He can hardly escape the sky can he? 😕 Not only that but Sunfire flies at 150 mph. Nuff said.

As for his battle with Spiderman. He is a ground based opponent meaning Namor can fly rings around him. Not onlyy that but it was a h2h battle and they started off very close to each other. Completely different circumstances.

In this battle reflexes are only a real advantage at the very beginning. They will help him get off the ground quicker. However the small amount of time he has before Storm reacts and the amount of time it takes for him to build up a good level of speed mean she will be able to get airborne before he reaches her. When both in air she will back off from him. Given that they are of comparable speed he will not be able to close the distance before she generates a hurricane. Such a weapon can not be doged by Namor his reflexes will be useless against it. Storm knowing how vulnerable she would be if close to him would keep at a distance. That combined with their similar flight speed means his reflexes really dont come into it.

Sunfire stopped to fight Namor thats how Namor was able to reach him just like that. Namors faster reflexes allowed him to run rings around Sunfire. Storm would back off and keep flying until a suitable distance away. With such a distance and under such different circumstances reflexes wouldnt really come into it.

I put the scan to show his flight speed and acceleration. What speed do you need to achieve to get the water follow you? Mach 1? Mach 2? Namor gained that kind of speed in seconds.

Oh yes, Namor sees an forming hurricane and his reflexes don't factor at all in his ability to avoid it....is that what you are saying? Because I don't know what you really are meaning here.

He can't escape the sky, but he can move and think faster then Storm can react to, therefore:

Storm forms an hurricane = takes two or three seconds to do that (I have NEVER seen her flying 300 mph, BACKWARDS and forming an hurricane that is strong enought hold Namor on one place in a comic, might you post an scan? Also, it always takes her at least two or more seconds to make an strong hurricane) = Namor is already on other place= Storms concetration is still on the hurricane = Namor flys to her and kills her.

Nuff said.

🤨 Were we discussing about how Namor would fare against Spider-Man? No, I think we were discussing about how fast Namor can react and turn his direction in mid-flight, the answer is in milliseconds, and the scan proves it. You need to read my answers better.

She flys backwards...concetrates on Namor who is gaining more and more speed...and generates an hurricane on the same time? You are really over-restimating her abilities in multitasking. Now, Storm has to concetrate on the hurricane which lessens her flying speed, which enables Namor who is gaining more speed (blowing through the forming hurricanes on the same time) to get to her and punch her head off her shoulders.

Stopped to fight, but he was still hovering meters above sea, an distance that Namor crossed in mere second.

Once again, you only answer part of my points.

And what about speed enough to get the water to follow him?

I need to go to sleep now. Later.

You're trying to use Namor FEATS versus Storm's "Most of the time"?

Dont base your argument on artistic expression. Thats all it was. Nothing more. Do you really think thats possible scientifically yet you want to incorporate science in to this argument by asking how fast he would need to be travelling to get the water to follow him like that? 🙄 Come on Dc it doesnt work like that. Mere artistic expression. Dont over-estimate his speed. He cant fly faster than Mach 1.

Not quite DC. Storm can create a weather pattern as small as the palm of her hand or the size of the eastern coast of the U.S. When Storm is throwing a psionically controlled hurricane able to adapt and shift to his moevements with a thought at Namor isnt dodging it. Namely because it would be two big the weather pattern would cover the battlefield hence the reason i asked "Can Namor dodge the sky?" We clear? His reflexes really dont come into it.

As for Storm flying and creating a hurricane please dont be ridiculous DC. Storm is no amateur. Plus she only needs to back off until she has created one strong enough which takes all of a few seconds. Psionic manipulation of a battlefield sized weather pattern = no running

I know what you were referring to. But as you've found out the cicumstances of this battle mean that Namors reflexes (with the exception of the start) really dont factor in too much. Not when Storms weapons are too big to escape from and when Storm will be keeping her distance.

Oh please DC why is thinking about creating a hurricane while flying away from Namor too much for Storm? Why on Earth is it going to slow her down to psionically create weather effect she already has to be flying in the first place. It is just a matter of psionically increasing its velocity whilst escaping Namors grasp. A thing she is very capable of doing. I know you love Namor but no need to invent limitations for the opposition. 😉

She fries him out of the water

Their comparable speeds would mean that Namor wouldnt really be able to close the distance in the seconds needed for Storm to generate a hurricane.

That's just it though, GS. They have comparable TOP SPEEDS. Not acceleration. Namor can pretty hit close to his top speed in a few seconds while it takes Storm much longer than that to hit her top speed.

I know, you're going to counter with "No, that's not true. She can reach her top speed in close to two seconds flat."

And no, that's not true. Especially since she uses the winds to make her fly. She would not be even close to reaching her top speed by the time that Namor has already closed the distance and killed her.

Namor wouldn't even need to fly near his limit. His acceleration enough is all it takes to close the distance on Storm.

And where did we get this "she only reacts milliseconds after Namor" thing? Namor has SUPERHUMAN REFLEXES. STORM HAS HUMAN REFLEXES (HONED AS THEY MAY BE). I don't know where you go that from GS, even if you're referring to the electrical signal thing. It still doesn't matter. Namor would've already reacted and made his way more than half the way across to Storm before she realized what was happening.

See, Storm's speed is kind of like a car. Or a train. Basically any vehicle. She can start off with a decent speed, but only after several seconds can she begin to move toward her top speed.

Namor, on the other hand, is like a bullet. When he goes, he goes. There's basically no gradual build-up of speed. He just takes off, like a bullet.

Now, can a car, from a stop, beat a bullet in a race? No.

I like Storm and think she's uber powerful like the next guy, but I know when she's outclassed. She can create world-shattering hurricanes and typhoons and what not, but it all takes a strain on her, and takes her ample time to create them. Not once have I see her casually toss out a city-destroying hurricane in a mere second and do it all without any effort whatsoever. Now add this to the fact that she'll be preoccupied trying to get away from Namor, and I don't believe she has a chance in hell of pulling any attack off.

Specially since Namor would already killed her as soon as her feet left the ground.

well said , and it's really simple logic here.

Storm hits namor ------ namor is fine
Namor hits Storm ---------- Storm is K.O'ed

Namor has shown Speed able to at least touch Storm that's would be enough.

I mean how many times have you seen Storm dodge attacks? i have seen many people nail her 😮

excellent post Metal Manx
