It's just chess.

Pretty much just shows Tony is better at chess.

Merlyn
reed.

Depends in what?

Pretty much just shows Tony is better at chess. it can be looked at a few ways.

however, i believe it was made to represent the fact that tony is tactically smarter than reed. i think he's proven that much over the years as well. stick out tongue

Reed beat Doom at chess didnt he? Tony beat him sooo by the brilliant A>B>C logic that makes Tony>Doom?
When it comes to chess guys like Reed and Tony should be able to see MANY moves ahead, so imo any one of them losing is either bad writing or just one of them wasnt focused enough.

Reed has beaten Doom in chess, but Doom has shown himself to be tactically superior to Reed and Tony.

It could also just be that the conversation in regards to the tech investigation distracted Reed while Tony stayed focused on the Chess/battle strategy. Reed's surprise at the end kind of lends to that. His one track mind at times has caused him issues. Plus Tony only mentions checks on two boards during their entire convo meanwhile gaining an advantage on all 5 boards, even the board Reed had checked.

Reed wins his battles. His smarts creates a way to talk to god. Only his mind was able to supply the alien being with enough info to write the entire universe

rotiart
Reed isn't the smartest guy in all areas but using that logic...
Spiderman rewrote the tech on the spideyarmor therefore showing himself greater than Tony
Tony hacked into cloc to mindscrew with sentry saying at the time that reed had never been good with software

spiderman also found a vaccine that could slow the zombie virus... Something reed couldn't do...
Spiderman wins.

Mindset
Well, Spiderman is second only to Doom.

I've always considered Bruce, Lex, Stark and Reed to be peers. They are smart in several different areas.

Parker has brains but never gets to show them off much. He has recently shown stronger brain waves than Doc Ock and a self claimed IQ over 250.

Don't know enough about Beast and Doom except for obvious.

stark's tactical genius as galan stated earlier is what helped him triumph.

doc brown from back to the future is the smartest

Bouboumaster
1) Reed Richards
2) Tony Stark vs Bruce Wayne = Split
3) Reed Richards
4) Reed Richards
5) Doom
6) Doom
7) Reed Richards
8) Lex Luthor
9) Doom
10) Tony Stark vs Lex Luthor = Split

Yep. I guess it would be like that.

This whole contest is really moot, since everyone on this list is smarter than one of the others on certain subjects. No one on this list knows more about mutant genetics then Beast, etc...

But Squirrel Girl wins.

Mindset
I'm going to have to disagree.

Doom knows more about anything than anyone.

KingD19
Okay, with the exception of Doom, who is incapable of not not knowing anything.

SamZED
Spider-man's really understimated, remember a book where he came up with an idea to stop an invasion faster than Reed. And didnt Richards say that Parker's as smart ah he was at his age?

Mindset
Yes he does, he chooses not to.

He mentioned that Reed could never build a firewall he couldn't crack, and does it almost instantly.

Doom Is secretly Edge
He sucks
Batman wins
