I'm not familiar with Maxima, but I wouldn't be surprise if she's as fast as Diana. Afterall, she's a Superman villain/anti-hero. However, i'm sure Diana has faster reflexes.
The Bracers and Tiara shouldn't be TKed, their magically enhance. I haven't read the Dr. Polaris instance, but I'm sure it was PIS..

That clone was pathetic, tbh:
Sure, he wasn't as vicious as the original. But, that doesn't mean he wasn't dangerous. It took the combine strength of Diana, Cassie with the Gauntlet of Atlas and Hercules to knock him out. He was easily defeated, because of the plot device. If I'm not mistaken the clone was unable to harness the power. Anyway, Later on, I'll reread Lifelines to better remember how he was created and destroyed.
Still, I give the majority to Diana. 😉

I haven't read any Wondy in a little while, but I'm pretty sure she's been established immune to tp post Eye of Pallas upgrade. Unless you think Maxima > Athena.Maxima wins, but I think it's more a matter of them being around the same weight class with Maxima having a huge advantage in that she can just use tk.
i'm curious--you bring up the tk, but..... where has she used it in battle? what are some examples of her using tk that would suggest she could use it to beat someone of diana's level?
Originally posted by leonidasI am not sure if holding a few rocks in the grand canyon together would constitute enough power to beat Someone like Wonder Woman. If the TK can't punch as hard as Flash or Superman, I don't think it's going to bother WW much.

They weren't just a few rocks and her TK packs quite a punch.
Originally posted by KontonYou said Psi-blasts. Not sure if they are the same as TK. I thought you meant mental. I'd have to see the scan in question but, Superman could have simply avoided the attack, which is something WW would probably do. Or block the attack. WW's shields are superior to Superman's durability. But Maxima and Diana are warrior women. Neither of them are going for their more exotic powers here. They are going to duke it out.
telepathic resistance =/= telekinetic resistanceFor all intents and purposes, telekinesis is just physical force generated via psionic means.

You can't see telekinesis coming and you can basically manifest it directly upon whatever you want.
While Maxima may be a warrior queen, she's certainly not a "warrior's honor" archetype like, say, Barda. If they engage physically she'll probably just get frustrated with Wonder Woman's skill and brain blast her.
Originally posted by KontonI dont' see Telepathy being an option. It's not going to work on Wonderful. And Tk blast isn't going to work. WW's shield would negate such an attack. And if Max has the option of brain blasting, Wonderful has the option of electricity, and lasso. I'd say it comes down to hand to hand.

Originally posted by KontonMaxima cannot amp herself physically if she is trying to brain blasts. These two sexy girls are gonna duke it out.
I agree telepathy is useless... when I say psi/brain blast I'm just talking about telekinesis.Wonder Woman can't keep her arms crossed forever if she wants to get physical =/

you think she used TK to ko orion? i think it was tp. mindblasts are generally thought of as tp i think. least that's how i've always thought of them. tp mindblast vs supes wouldn't matter since diana has better resistance. i didn't think she had any explicit tk combat feats. i don't see how you're saying she can just tk blast her unless you have some proof she uses tk blasts as opposed to tp blasts? if so, i'd love to see them. i think it would get physical and because of that i see diana winning this.
