Force Users vs. X-men (unbiased and clean)

Text-only Version: Click HERE to see this thread with all of the graphics, features, and links.



dadudemon
Many of you nerds have been trying to hide behind various shitty arguments that amount to mostly just petty word games and mostly baseless claims about character's powers. Well, too bad. This thread prevents that.


This thread includes any movie version of the characters I've listed. No more gimping or restricting character powers with shitty arguments.



Here are the teams:

X-men:
Xavier (any feats from any of the movies)
Magneto
Cyclops
Jean Gray (no Phoenix powers)
Wolverine
Quicksilver
Emma Frost


Force Users:
Darth Sidious
Yoda
Kit Fisto
Ki Adi Mundi
Anakin Skywalker (to include any iteration including pre and post-Suit Vader)
Luke Skywalker
Mace Windu



Scenario 1:
Xavier gets access to a fully functional Cerebro and all X-men are in or around the Cerebro chamber. The Jedi infiltrate the mansion and they are after the X-men. They must kill all the X-men to prevent what they think is an apocalypse. Jedi morals are turned off: they will go for the best and most efficient kills. Assume Cerebro does not work on non-humans (Kit, Ki, and Yoda).


Scenario 2:
They meet across each other in the Stadium that Magneto collected in Days of Future Path. Both teams are in the field but at exact opposite ends from one another. Same as Scenario 1: CIS is turned off and characters will go for the kills.




To compromise on the adamantium arguments: pretend Wolverin's adamantium cannot be cut with strikes and slashes but it can be slowly melted through if the saber's blade is held against the metal for an extended period of time (almost like the Jedi against the blast doors in Phantom Menace). Wolverine can be slowly chopped to pieces if he's not careful.





Notice how my thread is constructed to include all movies the characters appear in and it does not restrict any powers? Not how the thread also says CIS is off so "in-character" arguments cannot be made? Yeah, this needs to be done more often instead of the shitty troll threads I see popping up.

Right, so the only evidence you had to support your argument was evidence with which you personally dissatisfied... and yet the expectation was for others to adhere to it?

It's okay. That's just your conclusion.

My conclusion is the exact opposite. Xavier's power doesn't rely on "will-power" to resist like Jedi's power. They don't even work on the same mechanism. There is no reason to assume Xavier's powers don't work on the Force Users except in the case of Kit and Yoda. Even then, that's a stretch to think their neurology is so drastically different as to be unaffected.

If your point was that Xavier's telepathy and that of the Jedi originate from different sources, then sure. That's pretty obvious.

They can sense Quicksilver all they want. Based on feats he moves so fast that they'd be statues and wouldn't even be in he process of registering to use the Force before he's zipping around like a cracked out cruise missile.

Quicksilver puts on his music, makes the Force Users fall onto their own sabers. Like all of them.

Xavier kills all of the Force Users in both scenarios, with ease. There is no evidence that any of the force users have a resistance to Xavier's type of telepathy. If you guys want the Force Users to have immunity to Xavier's abilities, you're going to have to provide evidence that the Force Users have immunity to Xavier's powers. You guys are giving the Force Users abilities that they were not ever seen having.


Additionally, lol "Quicksilver."

But there is no evidence that Xavier can mindhaxx or kill a group of telepaths without some serious amplification in a combat scenario. (Note that I don't make any sort of contention about Cerebro-empowered Xavier.)

This is based on movie feats for Quicksilver going against force users. No, right because there is no integrated movie with the two.

I can accept him hitting them once even twice. There is no escape from force choke if he does not knock them out. Vader crush the metal and everything that was in the room except for Sidious when he found out his girl was dead. Just with an outcry of anger.

Simply put Vader gets pissed and crushes all of the X-Men bodies at once. The X-Men have absolutely no defense against force attacks. Unlike the X-Men the forces users do not have wait until the X-Men stay still in order to attack them.

The_Tempest
The X-Men badasses (Mags, Xavier, etc.) have bigger and better feats than the Force adepts, but the upper tier Force adepts (Yoda, Sidious, etc.) still have the means to kill their opponents fairly quickly.

It all comes down, in my opinion, to who's quicker on the draw. Setting aside the debate pertaining to Xavier, Quicksilver's pretty damn fast.

Time Immemorial
Jedi/Sith have nothing to stop QS or Xavier.

Jedi/Sith die.

KingD19
Lol, Vader can't do that on a whim. Whenever we see him use the Force, he has to focus on a single person.

And if he can see fired bullets basically stopped in mid air, he is multiple mach speed and easily fast enough to destroy any Force User before they can move. What you can accept doesn't matter based on screen feats.

And you can easily escape the Force if the Jedi is frozen in time while you're moving or if you're so fast they can't focus on you.

You're either trolling or delusional if you think Quicksilver can't solo as his hits at those speeds sent grown men flying and he was just joking around. If he was serious people would die from his hits.

To be fair, we see him crumple and crush durasteel in ROTS when he's fresh off the table. I have no doubt that he could crush ribcages of multiple fleshy targets.

The only question is whether he'd be able to pull it off in time.

KingD19
We see him do that because Sidious tells him Padme is dead, and Anakin knows it's his fault because he choked her to death(in his mind). In his unadulterated rage, he lashed out. He's never done anything near that aside from that single instance.

But the answer to the question is no, he wouldn't be able to pull it off in time. He'd be stuck in time while Quicksilver presses every button on his chest and yanks his helmet off.

As the thread creator, dadudemon is effectively Word of God and can adjudicate accordingly, but he did turn off CIS and whatnot per the OP. I'd argue that that means Vader has access to such power since he displayed the feat before.

He doesn't need to, with his speed the other side will all be dead before they even realize that he moved.

CIS doesn't mean Vader doesn't have that power. And CIS Off doesn't mean he does have it.

He only displayed Force Crush in the movies when he was certain he'd murdered his wife on top of betraying all of his friends, killing a bunch of kids that looked up to him, and having the only family he had in Obi-Wan cutting him up and leaving him to die. He can't just summon those spur of the moment feelings and use it whenever he wants.

And the speed of the Force isn't up for debate, it's the speed of the people wielding it. And those people are statues to Quicksilver. Before Vader can take a breath, Quicksilver has destroyed him. That's how fast he is and we all know it. There's no point in arguing against the truth.

Oh, and since his body has to resist speeds that would basically destroy a human body without some type of protection(being in a jet), he's pretty damn durable.

But Vader does have that power; we see him use it. More importantly, that's when he's fresh in the suit, diminished and untrained in the Sith arts.

Those people indeed move exponentially slower than Quicksilver. But there's no reason to assume that Quicksilver is necessarily quicker than Vader's murderous impulse.

It's been proven bullets are much much faster than blaster bolts(which are not lasers by the way), and Quicksilver sees fired bullets as stationary.

And as I said, it's not the Force, it's the users. None of them are fast enough to register Quicksilver. Unless you're saying while he's moving at his speeds, the people stuck as statues can still fight and move normally.

And moving at such speeds, a single hit from him would be enough to ko all of the Force Users. He tapped a guys cheek and he went flying across the room. Imagine if he punched them full force in the face or kicked them as hard as he could in the chin? Instant, bloody, gory death. Also the fact that he can redirect bullets while in flight shows tremendous strength while moving at speed.

Makes me think QS has uber durability as well to withstand those speeds and the fact he had to brace Magento head.

KingD19
As soon as the fight starts he's on the move. His perception of time is so fast as soon as things get going, everyone is already frozen. This is proven from direct feats from DoFP.

Yeah Time, a normal person moving at those speeds would probably just die with no protection. And he actually had to go slower with Magneto, even bracing him to keep him from getting whiplash. Hell, just the shockwave of him running by knocked 20 guards into the air and ko'd all of them..

I know and I don't dispute that. I also don't dispute the fact that he's many, many times faster than any of the Force adepts with regards to physical movement. My question is whether or not he's faster than the Force as summoned by their thoughts and will.

Vadars choke was never that quick. Not on QS level of quickness.

KingD19
His thoughts are faster than theirs. That's the whole point. He can think faster than they can, so he's already on the move before they register a thought.

I think you mean Vader's Force choke never killed that quick in the films and I'd agree. But that assumes he was going for a quick kill rather than a protracted torture. I think that's unfair to assume.

Let me catch you up since you are so eager to join the conversation. There is nothing that proves they will not be able to sense Quicksilver through the force and not target him with the force. That should not even be argued as I stated the first time.

Question is will they be able to react in time. If he doesn't take them out with the first or second attack he will die from a force choke.

Vader has shown this ability to perform without moving, waving his hands, and while talking.

Once again what is there defense against force?

Whenever he does a Force choke, he has to focus, aim, hold up his hand, etc... Even if he didn't. He'd be dead before he registered the thought of using the Force. Because Quicksilver moves at high multiple mach speeds and the Force Users don't.

Quicksilver moves bullets out of flight because of speed.(Whole lots faster than blasters) Force Users have to know where blaster bolts are to block them, not because of their speed. See the difference?

Yes there is. All Cerebro does is enhance Xavier's powers to be able to hit a larger area of influence.

This means a non-Cerebro using Xavier can kill people with his mind (but he never chooses to do so due to CIS) in his area of influence.

Cerebro expands these abilities to be world-wide. We don't know how far reaching Xavier's are without Cerebro. By feats, the furthest he exerted absolute control was in a mall full of people. So we can assume that that is his maximum area of influence but we cannot assume it is any less. We might be able to make a case for it being much greater but that would be speculation. I am not willing to entertain the possibility that Xavier cannot kill people with his mind inside his area of influence. That's just asinine gimping/trolling on other people's parts.

Question is will they be able to react in time. If he doesn't take them out with the first or second attack he will die from a force choke.

Vader has shown this ability to perform without moving, waving his hands, and while talking.

Once again what is there defense against force?

How can you react to someone who is a speedster of that level? The force is not a instant on form of power. It takes time and concentration to complete tasks. Most of the time they user is rendered immobile for big tasks, such as force choke, big lifts and such. Vadar never choked anyone while on the move or while they were on the move, if he could have choked Obi Wan out a few times.

Edit - As I have calced before, 5 sources of blaster bolts, each bolt moving between 200-400 MPH, is enough to overwhelm the battle precog of a Jedi Master.


To be generous, if Quicksilver is faster than 5x400Mph, then, yes, he is even faster than the "thoughts" and battle precog abilities of the Force Users.

Full punches will kill them. Small taps were sending people flying and a wedgie launched a guy into the ceiling. Even simply running past a hallway full of guards launched them all into the air from the force he exerted. A full punch would probably explode something.

And Quicksilver is indeed faster than that as liquid was frozen in place and bullets were standing still after being fired. He even casually tapped them out of place so Xavier and Magneto wouldn't get shot.

Take a look at the clip, it took the bullets over a minute to cross the room, now compare that to how long it would actually take bullets to cover that distance. my number of 7,700 MPH is massively lowballing the speed.

KingD19
And keep in mind, it took the bullets that long when he was in "jog" mode. We don't see him go full speed(or at least faster than the majority of the time) except in short bursts where he'd essentially teleport while already going super speed. Imagine if he'd been going full bore the entire time?

This thread includes any movie version of the characters I've listed. No more gimping or restricting character powers with shitty arguments.



Here are the teams:

X-men:
Xavier (any feats from any of the movies)
Magneto
Cyclops
Jean Gray (no Phoenix powers)
Wolverine
Quicksilver
Emma Frost


Force Users:
Darth Sidious
Yoda
Kit Fisto
Ki Adi Mundi
Anakin Skywalker (to include any iteration including pre and post-Suit Vader)
Luke Skywalker
Mace Windu



Scenario 1:
Xavier gets access to a fully functional Cerebro and all X-men are in or around the Cerebro chamber. The Jedi infiltrate the mansion and they are after the X-men. They must kill all the X-men to prevent what they think is an apocalypse. Jedi morals are turned off: they will go for the best and most efficient kills. Assume Cerebro does not work on non-humans (Kit, Ki, and Yoda).


Scenario 2:
They meet across each other in the Stadium that Magneto collected in Days of Future Path. Both teams are in the field but at exact opposite ends from one another. Same as Scenario 1: CIS is turned off and characters will go for the kills.




To compromise on the adamantium arguments: pretend Wolverin's adamantium cannot be cut with strikes and slashes but it can be slowly melted through if the saber's blade is held against the metal for an extended period of time (almost like the Jedi against the blast doors in Phantom Menace). Wolverine can be slowly chopped to pieces if he's not careful.





Notice how my thread is constructed to include all movies the characters appear in and it does not restrict any powers? Not how the thread also says CIS is off so "in-character" arguments cannot be made? Yeah, this needs to be done more often instead of the shitty troll threads I see popping up.

I cannot be serious when people post comments like that with no proof. Sidious has the ability to force choke everyone. Will he do so, or get the chance mostly likely not.

Yes, i recognize Quicksilver can kill them. I already stated that. But do you recognize that he can be killed with the force if he does not take out the force users promptly?

I do concede that this is a good point. We cannot know if a more local/concentrated dose of his "kill" power is any faster (no Cerebro, only Xavier). It is possible it takes far longer to kill 7 billion people (or millions of mutants) than it does just 4-10 people. We just don't know. There is nothing to suggest it would be any shorter.

Force users, and I was sure to choose the best from the movies, should be able to still be at least partially functional due to their training, while Xavier is killing them. I don't see why they couldn't at least pull-off a force push or pull while getting their brain liquefied.

Uhhh...yeah.


I was thinking that Quicksilver was a bit much but included him because Force Users have battle precog (allowing them to anticipate where he is going). I do know the battle precog can be overwhelmed. I still have not seen a calculation that shows how fast Quick Silver genuinely moves.

Please quote me where I said he rapes multiple telepaths at once with ease. I said he could take out any of the human Jedi mentally. I never said he was taking them all on at once, or that he does it with ease. Or where I said that Quicksilver cannot be sensed through the force. I said he will hit them while they are still busy trying to sense him. It has nothing to do with what the force is capable. It has to do with how fast a person can process information. Because he can literally move faster than people can think.

Only people in any of the X-films to fully resist Xavier was a diamond Emma Frost and Phoenix Jean (and none of the force users are on her level). X2 showed that a cerebro boosted Xavier could kill any human or mutant via his mind, regardless of their willpower. In fact, a whole planet's worth. So I am basing what I say off of his actual movie feats. You made the claim that being force users will make them different and less susceptible to his powers than what everyone else (other than the 2 mentioned) has been shown as being. So you need to prove this.

As to your other claims about Magneto... the train scene and the sentinel scene at the end shows that he doesn't need direct line of site, or to even be in the immediate vicinity of what he is controlling, to exercise very fine and precise control over multiple objects.

Oh the sheer irony of this statement. Sidious has never force choked several people, out of his line of sight (or even in his line of sight), at once on screen. Yet you claim he can. Yet I use actual screen feats, showing what the characters are capable of, and it's not good enough for you.

Well duh... choke anyone long enough and they will die. But considering his monumental speed advantage (and the amount of force this adds to any of his attacks), he will kill all 7 of them with 7 individual punches. End of discussion.

The_Tempest
As I recall, Frost and Grey are the only enemy telepaths Xavier ever encounters. The rest, for all we know, were Muggles or had no telepathic prowess to speak of. The Jedi, while not as capable as Xavier, are indeed telepathic. Why should we assume that his powers would work in a combat scenario effectively against rival telepaths?



To be fair, as I pointed out to dadudemon, Cerebro!Xavier failed to actually kill any of his victims, even ones like Mystique who were just outside the door. That's plenty of time for Jedi and Sith to snap necks. (Not that it matters because of Quicksilver.)



I agree that we should be able to use deduction and inference without resigning ourselves totally to screen feats. (Otherwise one could say "Sidious never used Force lightning on Magneto in the films so prove he could!!1!oneone!!!"wink

It's not incredible assume that Sidious can Force choke multiple people given he's telekinetically thrown car-sized Senate platforms like wiffle balls and in light of the telekinetic feats of his lesser apprentices (Vader & Dooku).

Quicksilver still solos, though.

Your argument is silly, man. Xavier's mind-powers > Force-users going by screen feats.

Jedi aren't mutants. They just happen to have more midichlorians than other people. Xavier has the ability to affect/kill every mutant and human on the planet with Cerebro extending his range. There's no reason to believe be couldn't affect masses of mutants (barring other very powerful telepaths that are on his level or greater) as he did the mall full of people. eg He had no problem mind-dominating Toad and Sabretooth, while Magneto was only safe in that scene due to the helmet in X1.

A possible argument could be made that Xavier's powers won't work on the non human Jedi. But that's all a guess.

But if you want to be silly, Xavier need only turn Sidious, Mace and Anakin against the others, then the X-Men can clean up any leftovers.

Vader gets booted in the chest at a few thousand mph. The asthmatic is the one that comes out much worse in this I guarantee it.

The thing is, QS is moving at normal speeds(to him) so him pressing against Vader's armor wouldn't hurt anymore than you pushing against a wall with all your strength. however considering a simple poke was enough to send a man flying..just think what a full strength push would do to Vader.

KingD19
It would severely damage if not obliterate the piece of armor he hit. And Vader would more than likely be a red pulpy substance left inside the armor.

Just by sheer size and constitution, I'd say it's a pretty easy guess that they weigh multiple tons. Hell, a 2001 Buick LeSabre was almost 2 tons and these things look even bigger. You're lowballing pretty grossly, imho.

KingD19
Star Wars universe also has materials that have the same strength yet much lighter composition. Plasteel for example, which is just what it's name suggests. A plastic like material that is extremely strong. It could be a ton, it could be 500lbs.

A multi-ton object wouldn't do so little damage being chucked around like that. Also with the repulsors on(which it seems to indicate they were since they were powered up and whirring around as if people were using them normally) their full weight wouldn't even come into account.

KingD19
All of this is moot though, as like I and several others pointed out. Quicksilver will end this fight as soon as someone says GO.

Based on my estimates, they are definitely multi-tonne, assuming they are fairly solid metal objects whose materials are composed of materials that have an average density between iron and titanium.

They should be about the mass of the average car: possibly heavier. Nothing indicates they were made out of a super light material as Yoda clearly struggled quite a bit trying to fight back.




Also, I should reiterate that this is the movies. It does not include the cartoons or CGI shows (no X-men shows, no Clone Wars, etc.).

DDM apparently has estimates, and I know how good he is at math. If he says they're that heavy, I'll retract my statement.

It's not lowballing, it was an observation I made based on what I thought, and what I know of the SW universe.

Such as the widespread use of incredibly strong, yet light materials like plasteel(similar to how if we could replicate spider-silk on a human scale it would be x amount lighter than titanium while just as strong)

There's been a lot of lowballing, but it hasn't been from my side. And if it has it wasn't intentional.

Thanks, man.


I would agree that the pods would be a futuristic super-light material had Yoda not struggled to TK them. Also, since they are pods for a senate that has existed for thousands of years, they probably didn't design them for industrial or combat purposes (such as using plasteel to save mass). They kind of resemble plastic and polished tungsten (tungsten's density is over 15 g/cm^3) but, I don't like to "high-ball" figures because it makes you look biased. Something between iron and titanium seems reasonable as it puts the pods around a mass that we would expect Yoda to struggle with consider his other feats with the large pillar (in AotC) and the X-Wing in ESB.

Well, like I said to Silent Master, the laws of physics would remain constant. So unless Quicksilver is a reality warper, nothing other than enhanced durability is going to prevent his body from being destroyed while performing his speed feats.

And even if this wasn't the case, by your own logic, he could apply whatever control technique he generally uses not to get hurt when he attacks Vader.



Well, that is why I said they aid Xavier. I don't know if either of them have the juice to take on any force user one-on-one mentally. They don't have the actual screen feats to prove this (well, Phoenix Jean does, but she isn't in this fight). But adding their mental powers to boost Xavier's even further, that I do see as possible. As for Magneto, the saber thing would also remove the force users' main offensive weapon. In nearly all the fights, sabers are the first resort when combat starts. By taking their sabers away they lose a massive chunk of their offensive arsenal. And going by screen feats, if it turns into a mental tug-o-war of projectile throwing, Magneto has displayed WAY more power than any of the force users in question. In a direct application of power against power, I don't see any of the force users resisting him for any extended period of time.

Also, the scene in Days of Future Past with Mystique and the bullet shows that it's nearly impossible for even someone with superhuman agility to avoid projectiles sent at them by Magneto. It's really a more impressive feat than it appears, if you consider how fast a bullet actually moves and that his mind was able to keep up with and manipulate it on its trajectory.



That's the issue I have. There is lack of proof that force users can be TPd because there is no examples of them actually needing to resist. And we can't really assume they cannot simply due to lack of evidence. Where as there is enough onscreen proof of Xavier mentally screwing with both telepathic and non telepathic opponents (humans and mutants alike) to suggest that he could influence the force users. I am trying to create an argument based on evidence as opposed to lack of evidence. Not that it matters. Quicksilver will still solo.
Ok. We are not really going to agree on everything. One thing I will agree with is that Quicksilver is the win point for the X-Men unless the force users can sense him. With Xavier attacking them that would most likely be enough of a distraction for the X-Men to win.

As to agreeing on everything... life would be woefully boring if everyone thought the same. Just imagine how dull this forum would be. laughing laughing laughing

Quicksilver is the ace-in-the-hole though. Like I said previously, speedsters of his calibre will always sway fights in their or their team's favour, when there is no one else on the field of comparable speed.

I actually think that most Star Wars threads here should allow for Clone Wars series feats to be included. It gives us way more material to go on with regards to what the force users are potentially capable of. Because I do want to make it clear that I am actually a Star Wars fan, even if I often argue against the characters. laughing laughing laughing

As to agreeing on everything... life would be woefully boring if everyone thought the same. Just imagine how dull this forum would be. laughing laughing laughing

Quicksilver is the ace-in-the-hole though. Like I said previously, speedsters of his calibre will always sway fights in their or their team's favour, when there is no one else on the field of comparable speed.

I actually think that most Star Wars threads here should allow for Clone Wars series feats to be included. It gives us way more material to go on with regards to what the force users are potentially capable of. Because I do want to make it clear that I am actually a Star Wars fan, even if I often argue against the characters. laughing laughing laughing

Same here. I enjoyed the discussion. You have officially made it on my very limited list of people on this forum not to troll with but have a legitimate discussion.
