This hurts...these are two of my favorite ladies in comics...
But
If wiki is taken as truth and Firestar is capable of unleashing a blast of microwave energy strong enough to incinerate an entire continent, and possibly affect the entire planet's atmosphere. Then she still has limits to her powers and projection abilities
On the other hand
If Storm's full potential is close to what Chris Claremont hint at during the 70's and early 80's then Storm blows Firestar out the water. Even if you dislike Storm fans you have to admit controlling the energy of millions of star and planets is an amazing ass feat.
Winner: Storm

I continue to wonder about that feat. I fail to see how she could control the full power of the core when those stars were millions and/or billions of miles away from each other. It would take years for the full power to be summoned.

One thing I was wondering, was whether or not Firestar could mess with Storms powers since her bio says that she's messed with people's psionic powers before, and unless I'm mistaken Storm psionically controls the weather.

i think that was more against TP'ers as opposed to someone who controls things psionically. i have the whole run of new warriors and the avengers where she appeared. she is an underrated/under-appreciated character (as are ALL the new warriors!) but nothing i've seen would indicate she could jam ororo's powers. storm is more experienced asd her powers at top end have been shown as planetary in effect. again, nothing firestar has shown would match that.
if firestar just went crazy and microwaved a country-wide area, i'm not sure what storm could do to shield herself, though . . .
still, storm 8/10 imo.
nice to see firestar in a thread. good match.

Probably Fire Star. White Queen Taught Firestar how to disrupt Psionic powers with her microwaves. She is able to deflect high Energy blast with them as well. In New Warriors 49 I think, She was able to open a worm hole in space all under her own power. No one does things like that unless they are uber or have seriously advanced Tech. Firestar 7/10. A microwave beam to the heart will kill storm effortlessly. While ANgelica on the other hand can deflect wind and lighting.
Besides, do you really want to get into another 700+ post about Storm's powers?
She could destroy the atmospheres of a dozen worlds and and it still wouldn't be enough to stop someone who has control the energy of millions of stars and planets with ease. Keep in mind this is before she reached her full potentail. (Which I have no idea what the limit might be )

This only works if Storm still possesses an organic body at her full potential. It has been stated that Storm's full potential is a living form of elemental energy, making Angelica microwave attack to the heart pointless.
There are way too many possibilities in this debate. So unless somebody knows what Storm’s full potential is, this is nothing but a guessing game.

yee-haw, an NW fan!
you may be right, but i don't think she would be able to continuously deflect bolts of lightning that pretty much don't stop falling. and to take out storm, she'd need to find her first. storm could also make it impossible for her to breathe.
constant lightning, low pressure to make breathing impossible and an ability to effectively hide from firestar makes it tough for me to say she can win without some sort of massive eruption-type attack. even IF firestar could hinder her control, storm's range of effects would certainly exceed firestar's ability to hinder that control.
firestar is CAPABLE of winning, but storm's as smart as anyone and her experience is off the charts. which is why i think she'd beat her for a solid majority.
ps--sits and waits for rutog to make an appearance at which point i shall take firestar's side.
