VS

Physical: Superman like powers.

I'd take Psionic powers over Physical any day, way more versatile with much more potential.

Psionic is better Too versatile u also have matter and energy manipulation with psionic

But is there some passive defense for psionic? Else you could just be killed by a gun if you aren't prepared.

Psionic FTW

Psionic, high-level telekinesis is practically everything, from matter to energy manipulation.

This

Depends on how powerful those Psionic powers really are... And whether you have any form of mind control, mind shutdown, or mind wiping abilities, which are not on the list provided. Based on the abilities actually listed, unless they are all at ridiculously high levels, Superman powers are easily more useful and more powerful.

Psionic powers are more versatile, but raw physical power is more of my style.

dude is that Jack from Power Pack in your avatar? I love Power Pack lol

and i would say psionics, with telekinesis you can match the strength of Superman and still have various other awesome powers

Yes, but what about durability? If they fought couldn't sups just speedblitz?

@ComocYahweh:

The thinking time is still the same, so by the time he begins to blitz you, your shields would be up.

Not that you would go up against a Paragon like that, with that power set unless you were either: Stupid, Powerful or Well Versed in use of them.

I'd go with the Superman powers FTW, my reaction time and speed would be much much muuuuuuuuuuuch faster than the Psionics so, provided I always go first...I win.

People are acting like Psionics are slow. This wasn't listed but Chronokinesis is a psionic power, and if a psionic had that he/she could slow down time and be as fast, it not faster then Superman.

It depends how powerful the psionic powers are and how powerful the physical powers are. Most psionics don't have all or even a majority of the powers listed. They also tend to have horrible durability unless they can put up a force field, and very few of them can do that and often it is not very strong. Psionics are great in a team atmosphere where others can protect them from physical force, but alone I would normally choose the powerhouse.

Psionics.

I wouldn't even need to react with psionic powers. Your mind is all you need to defend yourself.

Okay.

superboy is the perfect psionic to use in this battle.he is able to match a kryptonian in physical might ,and still has his full TK.also his mind is slread through his body,allowing for super intellect and super processing speed,which helps when he 1) uses his TTK sense,that lets him scan everything,and learn everything about it,and 2) as soon as he does come in contact with someone his TTK is able to "see" and "react" at the speed of the attack,so superspeed attacks,like from bart allen can be shot down easily.

psionic with high enough tk, there is basically no limits on what u can do

Psionics. It's like Telepathy, Telekinesis, all sorts of manipulation, teleportation, Empathy, precog, etc, etc. You could smash so much more stuff, I'd say psionics.

did i mention Superboy already lol.
