Steel versus Diamond

who prevails?

The thing is that Colossus also has class 100 strength

She's used telepathy in diamond form a few times, but if we assume she can't then unless she changes to human form she's screwed.

No telepathy then Piotr wins. He's steel but he also has the super strength going for him. Emma gets a strength boost in diamond form but she's nowhere near Colossus' level

but diamond is harder than steel

colossus wouldn't be able to injure her but she can damage colossus

He isn't actually steel.

Emma hits him with the force of a normal woman, plus a little extra strenght but not much. Pete on the other hand has class 100 strength and an organic metal body. He punches her and she dies.

She's actually supposed to have something in the 25-75 ton strength range, but it's never really shown...

75 tons?!?

I would put Luke Cage over her anyday of the week

According to the handbooks Emma has level 5(25-75 tons)strength and level 5 durability. Colossus has 6's in both.

Colossus wins.

Don't matter if its harder if she doesn't have the strength to use it. Imagine a toddler with a metal rod and a man with a stick. Even though the rod is harder I'd imagine the man will hit harder considering he has much more strength

Bit of a gap there....

25-75.... thats a big differance

If she is in the class 5 i.e. 25-75 she'd be around the low end. Blame Marvel for the ludicrously large range in each class.

ha, i get it. Still 25 tons is 1/4 of Pete. Not enough to put him down.

5 is 50 to 75 surely gimme a sec.

Level 4 is Class 10 & 25
Level 5 is Class 50 & 75
Level 6 is Class 90 & 100
Level 7 is incalcuable.

My bad, you're right.

5=25-75

Is that new? I have one of the handbooks here with the ratings 1 to 7 in it.

Emma has been shattered before in her pure diamond form. I definitely think that Colossus could shatter her. And about the access to telepathic skills, although some portrayals showed her able to use tp while in diamond form, it's been concluded that she cannot in recent storylines. Morrison's initial depictions showed her unable to access mental powers and Marvel decided to stick with that. As to her strength, I wouldn't be surprised if she could lift up 40 tons. Definitely 20 tons at the least.

Emma's dimand form is just that, diamond

Its not organic hide like Colossus's or Thing's, its just Diamond

Pitor throws the ***** to the moon

I found one incident...she never really goes H2H in full on Diamond...

Perfectly smooth translucent organic diamond skin/form...I'd say she'd be able to scrape Things hide with her Diamond nails...

But yeah Colossus should take this....but shatter her? Doubtful when it took a special diamond bullet aimed at the flaw in her form. Danger couldn't even shatter her...she resorted to Blackmail...and she knows everything about the X-Men..plus she's a class above Colossus.

Other then that Telepathy for some reason seems so much more useful then her Diamond Form. Which is just there for effect.

Funny enough the Cuckoos are able to use Diamond Form and Telepathy similtaneously(Warsong)...which most probably amplifies their telepathy.

Because of this:
