Didn't classic Nova fight Gladiator and stuff? 😛
Again being lazy and using Marvel Database... it has Diamondhead at Class 45 "at peak". I know Loeb brought him back to face that annoying Kid Nova, not sure if he changed him much.
I don't think even Marvel themselves knew what diamond Emma's strength level should be at. She fluctuated a lot - her durability, too.
no, no, i'm talking about CLASSIC nova, like his first series, where diamondhead and griffin were his big enemies. nova was only cl15 or 20 i think and he fought diamondhead evenly a couple times.... cl45? meh, maybe. if he is that strong he's def stronger imo, but i'm not sure he could beat her. maybe via attrition? too tough to call given emma's lack of feats in this form and her inconsistency.
Hasn't Emma Frost overpowered Warpath at some point?
Anyways, barring Diamondhead getting very lucky and hitting Emma Frost right in her specific flaw area, I don't see him being able to hurt her at all.
She's been smashed into the ground by WWH and blasted continuously by Cyclop's optic beams without showing the slightest bit of damage.
I'd say it ends in an endless stalemate. Does Diamondhead need to breathe, drink, or eat? Emma does not in her diamond form.

It's inconsistent.
In some instances, she states she can't use TP, and is also completely immune to TP while in diamond form.
In other depictions, like in the Astonishing X-men run, she's been shown using TP while in diamond form.
