We are not talking bodily reflexes here when you match Cap's speed vs Storm's. Storm is clearly beyond human reflexes when we consider her powers manifest's before she even forms a thought. If this guy is moving at 300 mph, he clearly isn't in the speed range to take on a vs human thought speed attack vs before human thought speed attack. So I don't really see a speed blitz as an option here if we consider this speed for tony. And that was my point all along.

Storm's powers are at the speed of thought, and that's debatable. Not her reflexes, and her perception of things. In order to react to something, there has to be a certain stimuli to her brain. Her brain operates at normal speeds, even though her powers may comply to her will even faster. Of course, how can you use a power, without forming the thought first, we'll never know, but anyway. If someone is fast enough to cover at least 134 metres in a second, and Iron Man proved himself to be invisible to that said person, you are seriously implying that Storm would be able to perceive Iron Man? If that was your point all along as you said, then excuse me, but I hadn't noticed you were making a case for Iron Man all this time.

" I still don't understand. How does him knowing she was going to strike with lightning help the fact that she was able to attack him before he could leap up and tackle her? Are you saying that he allowed Ororo to attack him with lightning just for the fun of it?No. I'm saying that he knew Storm wouldn't unleash her full power in one shot, and what she would summon, the suit would easily shield him from, otherwise T'Challa wouldn't be stupid enough to jump in front of her, if he seriously thought her attack would kill him.

" We don't know how fast she can manifest her powers because they activate before she forms a thought. There are no human physical limitations that would prevent her from accomplishing the feat as far as we both are concerned. She saw him about to throw the hammer and her first thought(I'm Sure) was to move herself out of the way with her winds because that is what she was aloft on. It's the only explanation for why Claremont allowed Storm to keep up with beings as fast as the people I've shown and are far out of her human speed limitation class. Storm is clearly no slouch in the speed department and I think she is clearly a match for tony, maybe not both of them at the same time but one on one for sure. "Storm is not a match for Iron Man in the speed department, and I proved so just one post above.
And another very good explanation as to why Claremont allowed Storm to keep up with beings that outclass her in speed, is that he didn't want to kill her off. But there is no Claremont here.
