Winner: Thor
Name: Professor X
Seed: 11
Professor X possesses vast psionic powers and is at least an alpha-level mutant:

Telepathy: able to read minds and project his own thoughts into the minds of others within a radius of 250 miles (on Earth). With extreme effort he can greatly extend that radius.

* Telepathic Illusion: ability to create realistic telepathic illusions and cause people to experience events which are not actually occurring.
* Telepathic Cloak: can mask his presence from being detected by others. His abilities can at times go undetected or be counteracted by other more powerful telepaths depending on their level of skill in using their own psi abilities. He can extend these defenses to others around him as well.
* Psi Link: ability to develop a mental link with any person which remains as a connection to that individual.
* Telepathic Camouflage: ability to mask himself, and other peoples' presence from those around him. Can telepathically disguise himself, making his appearance to those around him quite different (changing the appearance of clothing, as well as more involved disguising).
* Mind Blast: ability to place large amounts of information in another's mind.
* Mind Control: ability to control the minds of others upon mere concentration. This power can allow him to completely shut down several peoples' minds, making it appear as if time has stopped.
* Mind Possession: ability to possess the mind of another, and use that being's body as his own.
* Mind Alteration: ability to alter the minds of others by force of will.
* Mental Amnesia: ability to cause loss of particular memories and amnesia in another person or even in a group of people.
* Psionic Shield: ability to erect a psychic shield for protection of himself and of other minds.
* Psionic Blasts: can project psionic force bolts which have no physical effects but which can affect a victim's mind so as to cause the victim pain or unconsciousness and can even kill an adversary.
* Astral Projection: ability to Astral Travel and communicate with others astrally through his own will, or through contact with the thoughts and memories of others. In the astral realm, he can use his powers to create "ectoplasmic" objects. He cannot engage in long range astral projection on the earthly plane.
* Mental Detection: can sense the presence of another superhuman mutant within a small but as yet undefined radius of himself by perceiving the distinctive mental radiations emitted by such a being.
* Mind Transferal: able to transfer both his mind and powers into other host bodies if his own physical body could be somehow killed.
* Absorb Information: ability to quickly process and store information, by mental transference.

* Phoenix Force: Charles Xavier briefly possessed a fraction of the Phoenix Force during his time with the Starjammers.

Abilities

Genius-level Intellect: A natural genius, Xavier is a leading authority on genetics, mutation, and psionics. He possesses considerable expertise in other life sciences. He is highly talented in devising equipment for utilizing and enhancing psionic powers.

Military Training: Charles served in the military, specializing in search and rescue missions.

Expert Fighter: In his travels in the East, he became a proficient hand-to-hand combatant and gained knowledge of pressure points.
Strength level

Strength of a normal man his age and size who engages in moderate regular exercise, mostly in his upper body.
Weaknesses

Paraplegic (Formerly): Professor X has been normally unable to walk due to spinal damage, originally suffered while combating Lucifer.

Dark Side: Xavier was shown to have a dark side, a part of himself that he struggles to suppress. Perhaps the most notable appearance of this was the entity Onslaught, which was a physical manifestation of that dark side. Also, Onslaught was created in the most violent act Xavier claimed to have done: Erasing the mind of Magneto. Once the X-Men fought images of the original team, which had been created by what Xavier said was his "evil self ... who would use his powers for personal gain and conquest," which he said he was normally able to keep in check.

In other instances, Xavier was shown to be secretive and manipulative. During the battle against Onslaught, the X-Men found Xavier's files, the "Xavier Protocols", which detail how to kill many of the characters should the need ever arise, such as if they went rogue. Also it was revealed that when Xavier realized that the Danger Room had become sentient, he kept it trapped and experimented on it for years, an act that Cyclops called "the oppression of a new life" and equated to humanity's treatment of mutants. Later still, a de-powered Xavier was forced to admit that he had sent a group of hastily trained young mutants to Krakoa to save the original X-Men, resulting in their deaths. Because one of the mutants was Cyclops' brother Vulcan, Xavier erased Cyclops' memory of the event. He further manipulated the rescue team of new X-Men by making them think the meaningless noises the island made were intelligible speech—evidence that the island was alive—to match the new memories he had given Cyclops.

Xavier had multiple secrets that he hid from the X-Men beyond the Xavier files, Krakoa and Danger incidents. Since the inception of the X-Men, he created and maintained a network of mutant espionage agents to work in dealings that were too dubious for the public eye of the X-Men, even entrapping Mystique into helping him (even though she killed his dear friend, Moira McTaggert). He had also been part of the secret Illuminati society responsible for shooting Bruce Banner into space. There is also the issue that plagues only the longest of long-time X-Men readers. Throughout the years it had been implied that Xavier had always known about mutants beyond those he chose to be his X-Men. He had admittedly hand-crafted who he picked to be his core team members. This has serious implications however. For instance, it can be implied that Xavier must have always known about "Morlock" mutants, those with severe physical mutations, yet out of the utility of public appeal chose young mutants that he gave a life of privilege (though accompanied with life-threatening missions). Xavier intentionally let some mutants be his vision in Westchester, while others lived lives of horror and daily prejudice on the streets of Manhattan and around the world. Additionally, after the events of M-Day, Xavier was nowhere to be found. Even though he knew that the X-Men were looking for him, that his ancestral home was invaded by Sentinels, and that his school and the mutant community at large were in a state of crisis. He explained that he hid in England during this time out of embarrassment over losing his abilities and his role he played in the House of M saga.

Name: Thor
Seed: 3
Thor possesses a number of superhuman attributes common among the Asgardian gods. However, some are considerably more developed than those of the vast majority of his race.

Superhuman Strength: Thor, like all members of his race, is superhumanly strong. However, as the son of Odin and the Earth spirit, Gaea, Thor's strength is considerably greater than that of the vast majority of his race. He possesses vast superhuman strength enabling him to lift well in excess of 100 tons. The upper limits of his strength are unknown. Thor is capable of increasing his strength while he is in "Warrior's Madness" state.

Superhuman Speed: Thor is capable of running and moving at speeds much greater than even the finest human athlete. Via Mjolnir, he can fly at lightspeed.

Superhuman Stamina: Thor's highly efficient musculature produces almost no fatigue toxins, granting him almost limitless stamina in all physical activities.

Superhumanly Dense Tissue: Thor's skin, muscle, and bone tissues have 3 times the density of the same tissue in the body of a human being, contributing somewhat to his superhuman strength and weight.

Superhuman Durability: The tissues of Thor's body are also considerably harder and more resistant to injury than those of a human. Thor is capable of withstanding tremendous impact forces, high caliber bullets, exposure to temperature and pressure extremes, and powerful energy blasts without sustaining injury. He is even capable of surviving in the vacuum of space unaided for a limited period of time.

Extended Longevity: Thor, like all other Asgardians, isn't immortal in the same sense some other god pantheons. All Asgardians have to consume Golden apples of Goddess Iddun for eternal youthfulness. Thor ages, but at a considerably slower pace than human beings.On earth however he doesn't need those apples for youthfulness. He is, however, immune to all known Earthly diseases and infections.

* Regenerative Healing Factor: Despite his high resistance to injury, it is possible to injure Thor. If injured, his body is capable of quickly repairing damaged tissue with much greater speed and efficiency than the body of a human being, or even most other Asgardians. However, Thor's healing powers aren't sufficient to allow him to regenerate severed limbs or missing organs.

Flight: Thor is capable of hurling Mjolnir with great force and, by holding onto the leather thong, is capable of flying through the air at tremendous speeds. While in an Earth-like atmosphere, Thor generally flies at roughly the Speed of Sound, roughly 770 miles per hour. However, he is capable of achieving faster than light speeds. While he can use winds to hover, he cannot actually fly without Mjolnir.

Weather Control: Thor is the god of thunder and has control over the base elements of a storm, ie. rain, wind, thunder and lightning. He can create raging electrical storms complete with thunder, lightning, hurricane-force winds, tornadoes and torrential rains. He can also create any of these phenomena individually. Another aspect of this power allows him to stop any of these weather conditions as well. While Thor can use his powers on his own, he typically channels them through Mjolnir, which grants him much greater control over them.

'Earth Control: After his resurrection, Thor has accepted his heritage as a child of the Elder Goddess Gaea and has gained the abilty to control earth and has demonstrated the ability to create country-spanning chasms in the Earth itself.

Odinforce: The sum total of Odin's power as the king of Asgard plus the power of his brothers Vili & Ve. The Odinforce enables him to tap into the near-infinite resources of cosmic and mystical energies, enhancing all of his abilities. With the vast magical power of the Odinforce, Thor was able to even dent Captain America’s shield with Mjolnir. During this time, Thor was able to teleport Asgard to the skies above New York City.
Abilities

Thor is trained in the arts of war and has centuries of experience. He is a superbly skilled warrior, highly proficient in hand-to-hand combat, swordsmanship, and hammer throwing. The Odinforce significantly increased Thor's powers as well as giving him roughly the same abilities that his father Odin and the previous Asgardian skyfathers possessed. During Ragnarök, Thor acquired knowledge and use of the Runes which granted him a number of potent magical spells. Thor also has extensive medical knowledge due to his years spent on Earth as Doctor Donald Blake and the EMT Jake Olsen.
Strength level

He possesses vast superhuman strength enabling him to lift well in excess of 100 tons. The upper limits of his strength are unknown.
