ccurious to see if any reasoning ... as I could actually see cyclops winning a small margin.

well idk Human Torch and Cyclops will just be doing shot for shot, example stream of fire vs optic beam, or fire blast vs optic blast etc... so who wins?

torch takes 7/10

@karetaker: care to explain?

Does Johnny still have the Cosmic Rod? Cause I'm guessing this is him without it.

I could see Cyclops taking a margin due to accuracy and power behind his blasts. Johnny's best bet is to take things to the air but I forgot how fast he is or if he has impressive reflex feats to say he can dodge Cykes' blasts considering he's tagged fast people like Northstar, Quicksilver, Spider-Man and Wolverine on a few occasions. It would be like duck hunting or a quickdraw and Scott just has to squeeze his fists for a blast.

Not saying Cyke wins but I'll make a case if I can but I've been out of FF for awhile so I won't say Scott wins on that notion too.

@god_spawn: do you know the speed at which Human Torch flies?

@SwordandShields: Where does the battle take place and the starting distance?

Torch.

Cyclops wins. His optic blasts are FORCE beams - he essentially smothers Johnny with beams of force, much like one would smother a fire with a blanket.

I'll say it. Cyke wins.

@Ferro Vida: Then say it. I'll still make a case since I think he can from what I know.

@god_spawn: I just did :P He's quick on the draw, is accurate enough to hit someone much faster then Johnny, and is willing to blast him.

@Ferro Vida: You mean steal my case and just say I'll say it? It's a good case you made, Ferro.

Torch. The guy who actually has durability

Which would kill Cyclops if it was used against him. Also Hulk's thunder claps have dropped people like Thor & Rulk. So it ain't bad.

It has knocked them over, but it hasn't dropped them. And Cyclops' durability isn't in question here. He can hit harder then one of Hulk's thunder claps.

@jeanroygrant: When has Hulk KO'd Thor a t-clap? And Hulk can control the strength of his thunderclap as to not kill someone. He's t-clapped a group of X-Men where Colossus and Emma Frost were conscious but Shadowcat was KO'd (I think Beast was too or he got up after, I can't remember), yet the same Hulk (I believe it was WWH or that mindset) who T-clapped Ross into the Lincoln Memorial IIRC. Point is, Hulk doesn't have one setting. If a more powerful incarnation of him has KO'd a human so Torch taking one isn't a huge deal.

True, and i didn't mean KO Thor, i meant tossed him with it.

Teenage Cyclops punched through a mountain. His attacks have greater piercing power.

That's true, Hulk's is for dropping foes and such.

Hulk's KO'd people with his t clap like Hyperion and Ironclad IIRC, both are superhumanly durable. Regardless, Cyclops possesses the necessary power here to drop Torch in one or 2 shots. Adding onto what Ferro said, as a teen, Cyclops has obliterated entire icebergs to save a ship carrying hundreds. He's only gotten stronger since then.

Hulk's has no focus. He can hit in every direction. Cyclops' blasts are concentrated. Even his wide beams pack more punch.

Both of whom have crazy power fluctuations. Just saying.

Torch could win in a number of ways he doesn't to hit cyke directly depending where they are fighting. If they fight in an unpopulated area torch can just light up the whole area around scott and fly off, leaving cyke to be roasted since he cant fly. He could also go super nova and roast him. However, in that same situation scott could remove his visor and it would turn into a super nova vs a mountain moving blast. Im going to go with the nova winning out in that scenario. However, scott is too skilled of a shot for torch to evade him in any other situation. Im giving it to cyke 7/10.

Human Touch for the win.....8/10 times

Right Trigger + A attack.

Torch wins

LOL.

I was serious.

Oh snap. Who hits harder Torch or Cyclops?

The Human Torch

@SwordandShields said:

@god_spawn: do you know the speed at which Human Torch flies?

The Human Torch can fly at speeds of Mach 1 and very good question. According to my opinion, the speed of The Human Torch is what determines who wins the majority int his battle.

So due to The Human Torch's fast flying capabilities, I give this to him 8 or 9/10.

And also since Cyclops only has his eyes as an offensive attack and his body is defenseless from The Human Torch's beams, Johnny wins.

I give it to Cyclops on some occasions, due to the effort of accuracy Cyclops puts into his optic beams.

Vouile

@Vouile: Torch doesn't just start at mach 1 though. He has to build up and he isn't fast enough to speedblitz Scott before he can get a shot off.

@god_spawn: that right there is true, he needs to build up his speed to even reach half of that but if he does, it's another story.

Torch.

I gotta say, even with Cyclops' master marksmanship skills he is more likely than Torch to be hit by the other's projectile and incapacitated. And I think Torch is smart enough (not implying genius or anything, just not an idiot) to be prepared for wide beams or even Cyclops taking off his visor if he brings him to the edge without finishing him quick enough. Probably a 6 or 7/10 for Torch, though I'm still unsure just how hard Cyclops' beams hit. I suspect if either of them get hit even once it will snowball into their defeat in seconds unless they find cover or get out of the other's line of sight.

Don't forget that the mental edge is way in favor of Cyke.

Johnny does seem pretty quick...He has dodged missiles quite effortlessly and I don't think it takes him long to become faster then sound. I don't know how much of a good shot cyclops is but Johnny is pretty fast and has some great maneuverability.

Gallery

Can cyclops tag some one this fast who can also do a 90 degree turn in the last second?

Why would Cyclops put someone like Torch down in 1 or 2 hits? With morals on, I don't seem him doing that.

I would also say that Torch should be able to block an attack from Cyclops with his own. Torch's reaction timing is slower, but not by a big margin.

considering this battle doesn't have a set location its supposed to be assumed its in a city like new york bla bla bla. with no civilians i think im not sure about that one. but anyway torch can fly has a wider variety of attacks he can preform with his power is more durable and he can make his surface so hot that he can melt the skin off of cykes bones just by standing near him. ect@SwordandShields: thats my basic thoughts on it. i also think a person who can fly has an advantage over a crowded (not by people) open top style terrain

@jashro44: To Cyclops' credit, he's tagged Northstar and Quicksilver before. Also, he has blasted multiple missiles out of the air in quick succession. I'll get my scans tomorrow.

With the cosmic control Rod I think torch takes it. He has shown the ability to ignite people without having to actually fire a blast at them. as he did to about 20 Kree soilders at the same time in F4 601 or 602 I believe. He also was able to Tank a Direct Blast from a Celestial. he also turned the arm of a celestial to slag with a nova blast(Though the Celestaial did Regenerate quickly. still impressive imo)

The Torch. Storm, sans powers, defeated Scott once, for leadership on the X-Men, so he can be had.

I'm assuming the OP didn't want the CCR. If he has it Scott gets merced easily, very easily.

Scott is a master tactician, i think he would use where ever he was to his advantage, find cover and deal with the Torch. his eye blast aren't jokes and as stated before it's not like this is the first flier or super fast son of a gun he has dealt with. Cyclops wins if by no other reason then he out thinks Torch on the field of combat
