Also Binary had a lot of mixed showings anyway. Although it should be taken into consideration that she was drained from powering an entire starship, Gladiator did knock her away in one blow with ease and she wasn't seen for a few panels.

Yes, she can amp to Binary almost instantaneously depending on the energy. She did it recently (a year or 2 ago) from fight the Collective.

As for your comment on her being knocked out. Wonder Woman isn't Gladiator. Glads has also one shotted Black Bolt, a Phoenix, some Nova members, and I can't see Wondy pulling that off either.

i figured as much. I also don't think the type of energy is all that relevant, i think it has more to do with the amount... and Simon isn't in short supply of energy.

i think Carol and Wonder man win this.

When Diana wraps someone, they lose all capacity to act offensively (for most cases, anyways). Diana can still physically hurt the foe, and remove all their weapons and such. In the case of a forcefield, neither party could affect the other, which would make me think of it as a stalemate.

It doesn't make sense to me that Tony should win because he's put a wall between Diana and him, but maybe I'm visualizing this wrong.

I mean, should Magneto win every time he simply puts one of his nigh-unbreakable shields around a foe?

It's a win if she can't get out in a reasonable amount of time, imo.

To incapacitate is to prevent from functioning. Killing, KO'ing, Diana's lasso and solidifying Wolverine in concrete would all incapacitate.

Putting somebody in a forcefield where they can still move and affect but simply can't affect you, the forcefield-maker wouldn't be incapacitating.

By that logic, if Tony didn't put Diana in a forcefield but instead put a forcefield around his team, preventing Diana from affecting the Avengers, he'd be 'incapacitating' Diana as he'd be preventing her attacks from functioning in such a way as to hurt them.

If Magneto created a large hollow adamantium sphere and put Wolverine inside of it, he wouldn't have beat Wolverine. If he then crushed the ball or tossed it into orbit, he would beat Wolverine. It's a small step, but an important one and in a case like this where Diana can't be crushed or BFR'd with the forcefield, it's a difference worth noting.

would wolverine be out of combat? then he is defeated. besides, it really becomes a matter of how big the containment is.

Doesn't Diana have Zeus's lightning at her command? Pre JMS, Wondy.

It's pretty hard to function in a fight if you can't move.

Tony puts a forcefield around Wonder Woman. If we consider one of them out of combat and therefore to have lost, we must consider both of them out of combat.

Did Tony just incapacitate Wonderman, Ms Marvel and Ares by putting a force field around Diana?

How strong are Tony's forcefields?

but he's not fighting Tony, Carol, Simon and Ares.

I don't even know why this is being discussed when it's not even likely that Tony's forcefiled would contain her permanently.

Pretty strong, I don't think it'd hold WW long enough for a win, though.

No, it's not likely. I just wanted to address the notion that putting somebody in a forcefield is beating them. Maybe if it was a body-tight type (I'm thinking like Syndrome from the Incredibles), but I was under the impression that Tony's forcefields were more like Magnetos, at which point it doesn't make sense to me to call it a win if the opponents still running around, fully functional, you've just reduced the space they can operate in.

Yep. Deific bug zappers.

Plus there's just muscling her way out, I don't see the force field stopping that either.

I'm pretty sure IM can determine the size/shape of his forcefields, and I know Mags can.

They can, and if they're prone to creating body-tight forcefields that completely inhibit action or movement, that's a separate discussion. I just don't think of a bubble that doesn't actually incapacitate either party on either side of it but simply acts as a barrier between the two as 'winning' the battle.

Strong enough to hold Void for a long amount of time until Sentry dipped him into the sun. If it can hold Void, Diana isn't going anywhere.

They're not prone to trapping someone in a forcefield at all, I can only think of a couple times between the two. I thought the discussion was could they, not, would they.

Meh, I was thinking of the time Iron Man did it to... Electro, I think? New Avengers, after the break out.

And if it's not a regular tactic, it's probably not something worth discussing any further in the thread anyways. Fair point.

Yup.

Ms. Marvel via forcefield. ermmhappy
