"Now that I sped up my perceptions to match Flash speed". You're question is like asking me why Surfer allows people to hit him when he can go intangible. Why Doctor Strange allows people to hit him when he can go Astral. Why Wonder Woman loses battles when she can just wrap you up during the beginning of the fight. How is Darkseid a challenge to Wonder Woman and Supergirl when they could beat him before he got his first breath.
Surfer vs Darkseid, who wins?
So please, answer the question.
Firstly, you're using Superman and, of all people, Flash. Just because Superman had to speed his perceptions up to match Flash....doesn't mean he's slow against everyone else, lol.
Secondly, how quickly does it take to speed up to Flash? 1 second? A millisecond? The waitress' items haven't even moved, lol. Even the coffee from the mug has the exact same pattern. So why would your scan mean anything, in a logical sense? If Superman's perceptions can go from 0-1000 in an instant, isn't that the same as saying he always has it?
I mean, Flash has to speed his reactions up as well. When he talks to Iris, to Linda, to Batman, his normal human friends....he's at human level speed.
Doesn't mean he goes into battle at human speeds, does it?
Thirdly, yes, please answer the question - Why does Strange get hit? Why does FLASH get hit? Why doesn't Wonder Woman, with her strategic GoW hat on, just use her lasso?
In a comic? It makes it so much better fight scenes plot-wise. I think I am slowly helping you reach the answer, lol.
Why does everything have to devolve into a fistfight? It looks cool on paper.
Interesting, though, that you use THAT particular scene.
Your argument is basically, Superman ignores one of his powers in every comic fight, therefore, in a forum fight that he can win WITH that exact power, he won't use it. Just like Cho and that asteroid. When it came to saving the world, and saving his friends - he didn't use his full super strength. Not even 10% of it, actually.
Therefore, I can argue he doesn't use his full superstrength in a forum fight. Not even 10%. Agree?
