Wow... I am far more behind on what's going on with the X-Books than I thought... holy crap :P
Anyway, I think since Scott is being is typical weenie self and setting up and ambush the X-Men will take this, but I think the FF fair better than most people think. I think at the end of the fight, Namor and Kitty are who's left standing.
The FF show up ready for a fight, just with the wrong person, so I don't think Storm can put out Johnny who's coming into the scenario already 'flamed on' and burning hot and ready to fight. Since Morals are on He'd have to come up with something tricky to KO her, like Surround her with more fire than she can put out and make her pass out with heat exhaustion. Though with Storm going for the Kill and Johnny not, that puts him at a disadvantage but he might pull it off.
Namor and Thing go at it as they have many times int he past, but Namor's powered up enough in recent years that Thing is likely to be on the loosing end of this fight, but I think he could can keep Namor busy long enough the rest of his team to try and take out the other X-Men.
I'd like to think that if Sue's been able to stop psionics and Telepathy with her shields before, that she could keep someone intangible out, but I have nothing to back so I'll just concede that a phase attack takes out Susan.
Reed, expecting a fight with Super-Skrull comes into the battle with some MacGuffin devices to help him fight against the Double S. Including something that will help him deal with his force fields and force projections that are just as strong as Susan's. Realizing that Cyclops optic blasts are pure concussive force, he uses some quick thinking to use his Super Skrull Counter-Measure to dissipate Scott's beams and slingshots him against a tree until he's knocked loopy.
Sadly if Johnny got past storm, he's probably pretty spent, and I would imagine he'd be cooled off enough that Namor could get in and KO him quickly, though Safe bet would for Kitty to take him out with a phase attack.
That leave Reed getting destoryed by Namor who he just was not prepared for.
So yeah, the X-Men win a scenario clearly engineered to favor them, but I think those calling for a 'stomp' aren't quite giving the FF their due.
