I'm not saying that X-Men JSA win mind you(because I know virtually nothing about most of the JSA lineup), but the two of them have used the tactic so frequently and with such success that it should pretty much be considered standard in forum fights.
oh, yeah, of course, that's always possible. still don't know if it would pierce steel though... he's taken a hell of a lot in terms of damage... anything's possible, though...

SunFire or Colossus Turns sand into glass or scatters him so far apart that it takes him hours to pull it back together.
JSAMr. Terrific
Dr. Mid-Nite
Sand
Hawkman
Hawkgirl
Damage
Stargirl

Cyclone
Citizen Steelvs
X-men
Cyclops
Archangel
Nightcrawler
Colossus
Polaris
Sunfire
Wolverine
X-23
Not only would Polaris be able to use Steel as a weapon, she may also be able to disarm Stargirl. And like stated, JSA dont have any shields, UNLESS the T-Sphere's can do it. Damage, isnt going to risk doing any major aoe attacks unless its his last resort, and even then, a shield will null it.
The JSA team is gimped here. Midnight doesnt do much battle wise, and will be taken out by any of the X-Men melee fighters. Cyclone is good, but shes inexperienced and may not be that much of a threat, however one of the more threatening on the team considering Steel, Stargirl, Midnight and possibly Terrific would be almost useless. Imo, that is.

ok but can he do it before he's fired? I'll have to check that out. not to mention i don't think sand will run away from this fight. And if he does he has to come back some time and when he does he's glass. Sand is a beast and can beat every other x-man when he's not jobbering except for current polaris
before he's fired? what do you mean? sand has complete control over his body and can move freely into the earth.
able to travel through the earth as easily as one would swim through water.

Also, Sandman can fly, right? I believe so, and that may possibly help him to get off his sleeper shot, IF Polaris doesnt see him coming in. Again, IF.
i don't think so i think your thinking of terra. even if he can polaris bolts have a much much higher range then sands gas guns.

like polaris, sand has the potential to take down most of the ground x-men. just by crumbling the ground underneath them.does sandman still have his guns? he can put polaris to sleep.

If he reforms from Diana's punch instantly, he would do the same for Colossus, and Cyclops would probably take a second longer. If he needs to reform at all. He can exist as a sandstorm, so it's no big deal.
As for Sunfire, he'll have to hit Sand first. Sand recently travelled between New York and the Congo in a couple of seconds. He's agile and skilled enough to avoid anything short of an omni-directional blast, which Sunfire wouldn't use, and in which case Sand could simply disappear under the ground.
Sand can fly via becoming a sand storm, or levitating himself on one of his constructs, or something similar. He's done it before.

Thats what i mentioned in my last post.
Also, if sand is turned into glass, can he reform himself by using sand particles from elsewhere(like Iceman)?
Honestly, he, Cyclone and possibly Damage are the 3 that matter here most for JSA. However, even with that said, i think the X-Men take a majority.

i think the idea is that he's turned to glass before the shattering. if collosus were to just punch him the same think that happed to the ultra huminite controled WW would happen. by the way i should mention that WW was being controled by UH and wasn't at the level she is normally at. in the same comic superman is beaten by power girl. (not saying thought that your point isn't vald.
just because sand can now teleport doesn't mean he can't be hit by normal means. that like saying night crawaler can't be hit unless the person fighting him uses an omni directinal blast. all they really need to do is predict were he's going to turn up next.
