Your other reason was just the cliche "he doesn't normally do it so he won't". But you say he will use speed and reflexes, which is not something he does all the time either.
When you say he doesn't "think like people want him to" in this context that really just means he apparently has no interest in avoiding serious physical trauma or death.
Can you think of an in character reason why he would want to allow people to hit him? Being a pacifist doesn't make him also a masochist by default.
He can move his body at super speed and can react at super speed. I'm not sure why anything more then that needs to be said when it comes to avoiding an attack.
What is the range before you get BFR? Anyways, like I said..phasing. But then he apparently enjoys physical harm so he won't do that.
He has all these powers yet apparently the only thing he is allowed to do is punch people and fire energy blasts. That means Thor shouldn't be allowed to do anything with his hammer but throw it at people and shoot lightning.

No.

Only when travelling on his board --- and said board is doing most of the work for him.

He's supposed to be very versatile, just sucks at anything even remotely similar to a fight.

Well okay.

Does he not have his board?

then.

Do you not think he can phase? I don't keep Surfer scans handy.

But again applying this logic then you would agree someone like Thor should be limited to just throwing the hammer and the occasional lightning bolt?
Originally posted by SurturThe problem here is not choice, but creativity. No one is arguing that Surfer will not choose to phase if he thought of it. We are arguing that he won't even think of it because he never has in a battle. .5km is battlefield distance. WBH could easily kill Surfer with a thunderclap from that distance. There is no escape. WBH thunderclaps before Surfer does anything exotic.
As long as we apply low showings for all Marvel characters here from now on.

What in character reason does he have to not use apparently the only ability that could save him? Who is the most durable person Hulk has killed by thunderclapping?

Surfer doesn't know how powerful Hulk is.
Just like he didn't know how powerful Thanos or Odin, etc.
Even if Surfer did know then again he would still never think of it (since he never has while facing opponents he knows he has no chance agsinst).
Originally posted by MagnonWBH is more than a trillion times more powerful than Maestro. And that Surfer was amped.
Surfer lol'ed at Maestro's thunderclap.Surfer HAS used soul suck in combat, it's not just a boast.
He soul sucked because his blasts were ineffective due to his opponent being intangible. WBH isn't intangible here, so Surfer won't think of it.
Also WBH can thunderclap before Surfer can activate that power.
