With regards to Psylocke specifically, she isn't the most "powerful" on the field in terms of destructive capacity. Human Torch could easily outdo her, for example. I just think current Psylocke, who was smashing psi-defenses and even penetrating immunities pre-upgrade, is also capable of taking this. She's aware of the threat Illyana presents, so is quite likely to look Magik's way at match start.But it's just a hard call. Most large battles are. Husk, who has outran bullets fired before she even de-skinned, could just as easily blitz someone while they engage with someone else. She literally set the ground on fire she was moving so fast. There's a lot of threats on this field.
I totally agree, a lot of times it's not about power and outside Magik or Wiccan I'd go with Betsy. Unless some of the others have TP resistance feats I'm not aware of. I'd usually take hax over raw power. Actually I'd even go w/ Betsy over normal Wiccan if he's never displayed any TP resistance since he doesn't have Magik's reaction feats.
