That goes without saying, otherwise its like saying "slightly above average man vs Magneto".
I'm curious to see what Magneto would come up with though. Lex Luthor would probably engineer a means to suppress Magneto's mutant powers or create a giant robot made of incredibly durable plastic.

Magneto has manipulated plastic, wood etc. in the past. Even on a molecular level as I recall.
I can agree with that, but I think Magneto is smart enough to at least protect his powers from being negated. He just has so much more at his disposal. Luthor is more of a PIS character. He shouldve been obsolete as a main stream villain 20 years ago. Writers keep trying to give him increasingly impressive feats, but they always come across as forced to me.

lex is at a huge disadvantage in that he can't use any metal in his designs, circuit boards and such can be exploited also. (prep trolling)
current "geezer" magneto probably loses since his greatest attack wouldn't take out all of luthor's best stuff.
he could though, he has feats of being up into the high atmosphere interacting with the earth's poles. IF there was a good size iron meteor out there...like fridge sized he could direct it down wherever he wanted like a rail gun.
there is also space junk from space missions he could use as substitutes.
Hes effortlessly lifted and moved the astroid at high speeds. What makes you think he cant? He hasnt because A) Its his home, and B) He usually is fighting the X-Men, who he generally wont kill because they are fellow mutants. Hes withstood blows from Thor, the Hulk, and multiple nuclear warheads, and generally has scoffed at them while doing so. He can create solid objects from dust particles, can manipulate various forms of energy, and can potentially create blackholes. Not to mention hes dealt with Dr. Doom, who is considerably smarter than Luthor, and Iron Man who is arguably his equal.
