Sure it does. As much sense as high ending Magneto to no end. High end one, high end both.
Thats why i prefer averaging showings.
That scan was obviously low ending the leaguers.
Bats would have insulation, but i can buy it being overwhelmed.
Still, WW is being straight up punked, MM should have enough control over his body to deal with that attack, and kyle was the victim of a super powered "stop hitting yourself" play.
that polaris was amped, so, while impressive, it isn't really relevant to this. i was trying to find a time when polaris pulled hal's ring off, but had no luck. i don't see that as a very likely option though. while mags might pull at it, the ring itself has sentience and can fly and sinestro can control it even at a distance. then there is the shield issue and an auto-shield argument could be made for the ring slingers. doesn't mean mags can't beat him though. i think it would be a great fight.
I'm not saying who wins as I do think this is a good match, but Dr. Polaris isn't the only person to effect a ring on the finger of a GL. Tangent Superman was able to pull a similar stunt on John Stewart, though that was via telekinesis and not allowing him to interface with his ring. Magneto can disrupt brain patterns and EM fields and the rings operate on verbal and mental commands (Magneto altered the polarity of the entire Earth at one point to inhibit telepathy), plus they are made from metal, so I don't believe it's a no limits fallacy to assume that Magneto, who has effected magical metals, alien metals, adamantium, and the body of Tiamut, can manipulate a small metal ring with circuitry. There's avenues of attack for Magneto unless this match starts with shielding up for both opponents at go. That's all I'm saying. Especially since .5 km is well withing Magneto's range of instant effect.
