I depends on comic. Namor suffers from mood swings. In one Fantastic Four comic, he is citing Shakespeare. But when he gets angry, he is pounding Richards face. Namor is respectable business man who has gained fortunes with his business skills. He is intelligent. But true, it always doesn't show in battle. But he doesn't need much intelligence to fly towards Storm and bounce her...
Storm is taken out by Namor before she can do anything. But let's assume that it won't happen and Storm gets away.
It takes pretty damn powerful winds to even move Namor in air. He is gifted flyer, it has been said that he is as skilled in air as he is in sea, and with century of experience, I don't doubt it. He could dodge things that Storm throws at him. The hurricanes don't show up on second. Namor would be constantly at move, and he could reach Storm pretty much with ease. Lightning, Storm's most used attack doesn't have any effect on Namor, in fact it helps him, and if he gets close to Storm, it's over for her. He takes full force pounds from Savage Hulk and Thor and gets right up, the winds are not doing nothing to him. And what if he dodges the sun lasers? He has dodged lasers before.
DC being a gifted flyer means nothing. Storms domain is the air for goodness sake think logically. It is one big weapon at her disposal. If Storms winds can throw the Savage Hulk across the horizon like a twig then Namor is getting handled by her winds. Winds that are mentally controlled by Storm. If Namor moves then she shifts them. He would be engulfed in a vortex simple as. Storm will keep her distance and while he's caught up in those winds he would not be able to apply his strength. It would be useless. It doesnt matter if he's a gifted flyer. If the sky turns against you then thats that. Just like if you're a gifted swimmer and then Hydroman turns the ocean against you. Your skills wouldnt mean squat.
As ive said Storms reflexes have been enough to dodge lasers while in flight. She did this recently in uncanny Xmen while engaged in a fight with Donald Pierces elite squad. Storm has also dodged Thors hammer before when thrown at her. It flew past her and proceeded to punch through skyscrapers so imagine its velocity, yet Storm still dodged it. Does that mean she has superhuman reflexes? NO. Its down to her intense training and the nature of her work. Namor does not have superhuman reflexes lets move on.

Please dont be silly Jrod and think logically. Northstar theoretically could travel at those speeds. He never did or showed he could in his life. He could only travel at mach speeds im afraid to inform you. So he wd half NStars speed and reflexes and Namor at top speed was spotted. That shows he's fast but none of that suggets he has superhuman reflexes

Storm would have to anticipate it, wouldn't she?She can't be focusing, and fully ready to react.
Storm also survived a hit from hulk with a projectile.
Thats why I try to use what makes sense, though I understand flash freezing.
Anticipate what?
What are you referring to?

Keep the fauth😄
Imperious Whirly🤘
Nope because Nate Grey has fought the hulk h2h with tk armour and he certainly didnt have superhuman reflexes Whirly.

Savage Hulk didn't have the flight advantage, did he? You do realize that Namor doesn't really use winds for flying? Think logically, he flies through space and there aren't really winds there? That's why it's speculated that he uses some kind of self-telekinesis for flight and only uses the wings for steering. How else he could move through space? In teh same way that Jean Grey could just force herself out from the winds if she would have enough durability, Namor can do it too. And he has the durability for it.
The winds need to be strong enough to move him, and if they really are, they are hard and act like water and enable Namor to "swim" through them. Namor does have superhuman reflexes. Spider-Man has more trouble dodging bullets the Namor. His bio even says that they need to be far so he could dodge them. His bio also says that he has superhuman reflexes. Namoe something from Spider-Man that Namor can't do. If something isn't stated on bio, it doesn't mean that it isn't there. Storm's bio doesn't say anything about sun lasers. Do we ignore the fact that she can use them? No. Namor's bio doesn't say anything about superhuman reflexes. Do I ignore the fact that he has them? No.

And just how accurate is that Whirly when it has never been stated in any of his bios and no one has shown any proof that he does have enhanced reflexes. Any comic book fan can make a bio of and post it on the net. If you post a link from a credible source then fair enough

I could put up loads more bios all saying the same thing

DC the fact that he doesnt fly by winds is meaningless why did you feel the need to point that out to me? That doesnt make any difference, he could still be engulfed in hurricane winds and thrown all over the place. Bea in mind that the wind isnt just blowing at him in one direction. If that was the case then yes he would be able to ""swim"" trough them because he flies at speeds faster than hurricane force winds. However he would be caught up in a vortex of wind at the mental comman of storm therefore adapting at her mental command and spinning Namor. Unlike the malestrom which was operating in his vicinity, this would be focused directly at him alone. Big Difference.
Storms lasers are some thing of a recent addition to her arsenal therefore they wouldnt be mentioned in her bio. However what is stated in many past official bios is that she has the power to manipulate energy patterns which therefore accommodates the new addition.
Im sure you could Whirly but its easy for a fan to look at a comic and make such an observation and post it on a website. I mean look how many of you have made that obsevation. Until i actually see Namor dodging a stream of bullets, or engaging someone in battle and the comic makes a reference to his enhanced reflexes then its just not enough for me. These days anyone can make a website.
