Best Long Range Fighter

Who would be the most deadly in a long range battle? Assume that they have to fight an entire battle being 1km apart from their opponent (they can never get closer to their opponent).

----------

Superman

Black Bolt

Thor

Silver Surfer

Hal Jordan

Firestorm

SS or Hal

Surfer or Hal.

Thor and the bolt have great power output, they're not as creative when it comes to using their ranged powers.

I'd think Superman has got to get some votes too

he has the best vision among them: distance and x-ray

he could see you no matter how far you are or what rock you're hiding under

and his heat vision (at high intensity) would be an almost instantaneous sniping kill

Silver Surfer could match Superman in every way.

Assuming they hit......

If we automatically assume that the attacks will land, then Thor takes this handily.

I don't think he has ever done so.

Surfer he doesnt need to even see you to use his powers on you. Also Surfer can see just as far as superman( can see space dust from across the universe) and actually has a wider range of vision(he can even look into the past) and overall better senses.

He seen Thanos from a lightyear away. He can hear the whistle of an asteroid from another galaxy or something like that

Hal or SS, as people have already said.
They've got a much larger arsenal of ranged powers.

The same things Surfer's blast would do to Superman.

I think Thor might have the edge out of thses guys 1K away is a hell of a distances at that range He could godblast away and Mjolnir would be able to block anything throw at him blast wise.

He this was longrange fighting but you get in closer says with a few feet then i would gil the GL or SS the win.

While most of these guys use their OWN energy, Thor seems to draw on an external source. There's a limit to the amount of energy Hal can spend, but I don't see Mjolnir running out of juice.

Re: Best Long Range Fighter

Long-range attacks are more/less what the Surfer does, it's his signature style; pretty much the same with Hal. It's virtually in the very nature of their primary weaponry.

On the other hand, Superman, Black Bolt and Thor (I really don't know much about Firestorm), tend to close in for h2h, pummeling, etc. They can strike long-range (especially Thor), but it's generally not their thing, just like Surfer or Hal can go h2h, but it's rarely done.

Hal/Surfer, Firestorm, Supes, Thor, BB.

Firestorm is being forgot about here.

SS

Is this in order?

How is Superman above Thor?

Superman uses long range attacks more frequently than Thor, plus he normally shows more long range variety. Thor doesnt use long range attack as much as Supes imo.
