I see this one going to team marvel, but not for the reason you think.
Sue is going to fight Aquaman, and Namor is going to fight Mera. Thing and Sue used a similar tactic before where Thing and her fought of Tiger shark and a female water manipulator (I can't remember who, think it was some atlantean, but clearly the water manipulator was weaker than Mera). Anyhow the fight started man v man and women v women, but Sue quickly realized she was outmatched and a new strategy was needed. Point here being Sue's IQ and her humility will allow her to quickly realize she is outmatched against Mera, and will cause her to take on Aquaman. Furthermore, Aquaman's invulnerable body make him a prime target for Sue to unleash more powerful attacks that she normally avoids for moral reasons
I see this fight almost immediately going into the water as everyone is unwilling to cause civilian deaths, and the water prevents Mera's dehydration tactic from working. Once in the water, Namor and Aquaman trade ultimately ineffective blows, merely hurting each other equally. Mera is kicking Sue's butt, and Sue quickly realizes this is not going to work. She and Namor trade combatants, and that's when the fight gets nasty. Sue almost dies before resorting to powerful internal force field attacks that incapacitate Arthur; meanwhile Namor is able to withstand what Mera is dishing out (possibly by using his flight powers) long enough for Sue to finish off Aquaman. Once it is Mera vs Namor and Sue, Mera is going to lose.
Team Marvel, 6/10. I'ld love to see this fight; I am a huge fan of Geoff John's Aquaman run and have always enjoyed Marvel's Illuminati
