Wanda vs. Ebony Maw

Fight takes place in an abandoned New York. Wanda as she was in Endgame and Maw as he was in IW. Who wins?

Ebony Maw wins.

Yeah, he is to fast and ruthless. Bad matchup for her. And the fact that everything she moves glows bright red will give him the ability to stop or react to it.

He's not strong enough to stop anything she throws at him. Her TK far outstrips his.

The same Wanda who was about to crush Thanos?

Wanda casually annihilated the Thanos that shit on Stormbreaker Thor+Worthy Captain America+Iron Man at the same time. It's possible that Wanda was just a bad match up for him (he seems to be the natural predator for bricks) but overall I'm inclined to say that she has better TK feats than Ebony Maw.

On the other hand, she got whooped by those two street-level goons in the beginning of Infinity War, so... ermm

Does it though? In raw power she might, but he is far faster and has much better control.

If you have a canon and I have an M4 I bet I can put two in your chest before you can light that fuse.

Where is this idea coming from that EM is especially quick? He got knicked by Strange twice, the second one being a ****ing energy-lasso that Strange just threw at him.

If she can tag Thanos and Iron Man with her powers then she'll hit EM.

Ebony Maw was taking hits during the Endgame war, while Wanda was completely untouched.

Well, if we are talking high-ends, Wanda's best speed feats with her powers actually shit on Maw's. She contained an explosive blast after the detonation had already started.

Someone on the one site did calcs for it (think it was one of the people on VS wiki) and determined that regardless of whether she tracked the explosion or the press of the trigger, she'd need superhuman reactions, at least in this scene, to do what she did in either case. You can see the shield start to form on the left side and make a bubble around it in the last 3 frames.

I decided to rewatch that scene, and it's kind of interesting how Wanda accidentally blowing up that building was supposed to be this huge tonal moment, yet just a few minutes before hand Crossbones lights up half a ****ing floor with Steve in it and no one bats an eye.

Wanda has more raw power and shields.
Maw has better precision, control and levitation.

Wanda

Spoiler:
> Thanos

Good fight but ultimately Wanda (at her best) is simply more powerful.

Wanda almost kills Thanos, a Thanos who wasn't ****in around and who needed his ships cannons to bail him out, I say she could take Maw based on her Endgame showing

Of course the problem with Thanos is that he has no long range abilities. If Wanda tries to use the same move on Maw as she did on Thanos there's a good chance she gets spiked in the back.

Wanda should takes this handily as she had the raw power to outmatch anything that EM can do to her. EM only real advantage is to catch her off guard with spikes since he does appear to have a slight edge in precise attacks. Kind of makes me wonder how she was struggling against Corvus Glave and Proximia Midnight.

On an off hand note I like how Wanda is never referred to as Scarlet Witch in these films.

Another important thing to note about Wanda is those energy ball projectiles of hers seem to move extremely quickly. We saw how fast Thanos was (and even Corvus was fast enough to do things like deflect Falcon's missiles and Vision's Mind Stone blast), yet she repeatedly tagged both of them with those. She's also tagged people like Cap in the past, during her brief villain phase in AoU.
