Full Capacity: Thing & Storm vs Luke Cage & Kitty Pryde

I truly apologize for bumping ancient threads that genuinely don't seem to spark interest anymore, (even though characters have evolved well-beyond whatever rabbit hole posters went down at the time of the original post)!

This, however, I am genuinely curious about: Both teams are convinced that the other team is going to (somehow) destroy the world unless they are stopped by any means necessary!

Who takes it? ("so-and-so stomps" are also very acceptable and welcomed answers, but I honestly don't know who would)

WB Quick Freeze.

As far as the thread goes, far too much of what I think relies on Luke Cage's current level. I don't know how he is currently.

ben still takes luke but it isn't easy. i want to say storm has shown she can affect kitty at some point but can't remember specifically. something with winds affecting her motion maybe? which seems odd, but, comics. kitty does need to breathe as well so that is a possible option for storm i guess if kitty can't avoid it by phasing into the ground and appearing somewhere else. if not, i guess they stalemate. can't see kitty phasing anyone into the ground in character, so... /shrug

Kitty and electromagnetic fields don't get along too well:

She has phased through lightning, but I can see Storm doing something similar to that, maybe.

That was a long time ago.

Still, Ororo has all the time in the world... Kitty's air-walking ability can't match the true flight.

Yeah, and also..

T2's best chance would be to fastball special Kitty at Storm. Once (and if) they take her out, it's over.

Cage is strong enough (remember Ymir?). Problem is, Storm is not a dumbass and has seen Logan and Colossus executing that maneuver since, like, forever.

lol yeah that was the scan i was thinking of phil. i'm not sure how much em control she has. i know she has that showing when she was amped but i don't THINK she's controlled em fields before. i wonder if kitty could be dehydrated while intangible? i mean the water is still IN her. i dunno. shrug

Thank you Pr! Happy to be here!

As for the fight, in addition to the EM issue, when Kitty phases a person into something, do they just become one solid mass on a molecular level, or is it more like their arm or their leg, etc are in-tact but just stuck inside, like an appendage frozen in a block of ice?

I ask cuz the instinct here seems to be Luke vs Thing, and then Storm vs Kitty, but the way I see it as a FULL CAPACITY fight, what's to stop Kitty from immediately phasing into the ground and pulling Ben into it?

Would that just kill Thing? Or would he be able to break out as if he were in just frozen ice or intact in another solidified material?

Further, is there anything Storm can do that can actually hurt Luke? Cuz if Kitty immediately incapacitates Grimm, I think Storm is SOL

So when Kitty did it to Hulk, it was like he was buried in ice.

As for Storm vs Cage, she could toss him away with winds perhaps? Or just spam lightning.....he's tough, but not Juggy levels.

Storm solos.

Controlling galaxies and sh_t.

Got it. The only follow up to that is, is she capable of fusing things on a molecular level, and did she just try to incapacitate Hulk without killing him due to Character Induced Restraint?

And I get that Luke's not quite on par w Juggernaut, but it takes a sec for Storm to summon lighting, winds, etc (at least as far as I know and could def be wrong), but all he needs to do is lunge at her and if he gets one hand on her she's out, right? How high can Luke jump?

When did she do this?

EDIT: Would anyone consider it PIS, if Kitty & Luke did win this fight as stipulated (Both teams are convinced that the other team is going to (somehow) destroy the world), or would that feasibly make sense to you?

She has to be next to a Galactic Core to achieve it though awesr

Holy crap that’s impressive.

Still, does it not take her a moment to manipulate such energies? That’s what needs to be considered in a FULL CAPACITY match. You wouldn’t happen to know Luke Cage jumping feats perhaps...

Well, as I see it Storm is the fastest, more mobile, more powerful, more skilled and more versatile character in this thread. Her only weak point is that she has human durability, but given the starting distance of 500 meters she should be able to fly easily and take all the time she wants to dump whatever cataclism she wishes to afflict the other team with.

Yeah, she COULD'VE continued phasing him, and we don't what would have happened had she done his head/vital organs etc.

Absolutely. The only thing is, t2 is comprised of two of the most defensively sound non-herald level characters in comics (imo). Cage is basically indestructible but also has a hf just in case, and Kitty can let just about anything Storm throws at her and her teammate phase through them. I think it’s possible Kitty can incapacitate Grimm before Storm incapacitates either of them. At that point Storm is still the fastest and most mobile, but she’s not untouchable, whereas a Luke/Kitty tag team essentially could be...

Full capacity Thing controls the rocks in their bodies.

Lol, but seriously. I'm not convinced that Storm can quickly and easily summon that exact EM frequency Magneto used. I remember Kitty has said lightning "tickles" in the past so it's not as simple as just "electricity." Meanwhile, Cage is throwing rocks, cars, thunder clapping. He can shield Kitty from EM attacks, and she can phase them from wind attacks. He can jump up at her. I know he's not quite Jugs-level per se, but what difference does that actually make in a fight against Storm? I think it's entirely possible for the two of them to get to her, and if/when that happens...?

She could just scramble his brains a la Sinister:
