I remember this one scene where Reed needed Pym's expertise and sent for him. Pym was surprised Pym needed him, and Reed stated something along the lines of him being able to master Pym's field to a degree even beyond him in a week's time etc. but he just didn't have the time. Overall, I remember it being a badass scene for Reed.
Anyways, Reed.

To quote G-schere: "Nobody can out-prep Reed. No one."... well, except maybe Doom.
Loki was lying.
These two are dangerously close to being equals now.
Reed's getting old.
Pym is just entering his prime.
Reed.
I think that several opponents such as T'challa, have a good chance to beat Reed in a full-on prep war, not because they are better scientists than he is -no one has shown to be his definitive superior-, but because of a better strategic mind.
I don't see Pym as a master strategist to beat Reed on this.
