He's strong, but not all of that stuff is true. Or at least it's not the full story.
Red Onslaught's telepathy was being dampened by Iron Man, Xavier was fighting him internally, and he was still broadcasting globally while fighting the Avengers/X-Men/and villains who came later. Quentin was practically about to kill over despite that help. Red Onslaught was on a whole different level than Quire.
Sophie(not all of them) used kick because Quentin was already on kick. In the rematch, Quentin was inside cerebra, while the Cuckoo's were unamped. The Cuckoos still won, pointing out that they got stronger. Seems perfectly reasonable.
I'll respond to the rest later. In the meantime, some entertainment. Emma made Quire soil himself.
First off,tony's telepathic dampners stopped working long before quentin started blocking him,his armour had run out of power,and he got KOd,waking up the next day,and still couldn't do squat until deadpool recharged him,only then did he reactivate the dampners,quire blocked onslaught throughout....red onslaught himself noted it was quire who was blocking him,
5 girls+cerebro+one kick was what brought down quire,and he wasn't even KO'd..,nex time they met,they hid in closets from him,while be beat up emma frost+cerebro and the entire school....then suddenly only 3 of them beat quire+cerebro?..PIS crap,unless ure saying the cuckoos are 10x above emma frost or something.
Emma frost did that to him with a cheapshot,he was leaving and she hit him with it,mindee oneshotted celeste and phoebe with a cheapshot,adult jean oneshotted kid jean with a cheapshot,kid jean beat adult jean in a telepathic fight prior to that.
I disagree. Tony's dampeners were in effect the whole time. He applied them at the start of the fight in the 1st two scans. They protected everyone, long before Quentin joined mind you, and last through him passing out. He never ran out of energy until Deadpool showed up much later, then Red Onslaught broke free of both the dampeners and Quentin in the 3rd scan, indicating the dampeners did the bulk of the work and were around the entire time. He didn't reapply anything until Red Onslaught broke free of both. Either way, it wasn't a solo feat for Quentin by any stretch, and he only participated part of the way. Xavier was also fighting Onslaught internally, shown in the last scan.
That simply allowed them to end the fight in a one-shot, rather than a drawn out battle. The other story points out they got stronger, a perfectly reasonable explanation, and could one shot him without amping.
Endsong Quentin was an outlier, a relic from when was he was supposed to be a transcendant being. He could also exist as an immaterial specter then, fly, and use telekinesis. He's been flesh and blood ever since he rejoined the main cast, hasn't displayed telekinesis, and can't fly(even required a jetpack at school). Once he became a regular character again, he got downgraded to "brat with big potential" again. We're talking over 50 issues here. There's a pretty clear shift. We'd had to accept it with Psylocke when she mysteriously lost her tk, we must accept with Quentin.
(The Emma scan was for laughs.)

Wolverine was fighting the construct, and he was literally hunting Quentin while all this went on. The construct worked yes, but Wolverine was still not under full control. He broke out of the shack here, and proceeded to show up in the school while Quentin hid in various places from him.
The Captain America and Quire thing was a really dumb story true. I always interpreted the event as Quentin realized it would be too big a task trying to get into his mind, so he backed down. Quentin was threatening to leave Cap a drooling mess right before then, and he's definitely the type to do it if he could. Maybe it was a low showing, maybe not. Quentin has been pretty neutered these days.
Should be noted that the Avengers, including Captain America, knew they needed to bring actual tp-dampeners when they encountered Rachel in AvX
