blessing or curse the mutants of the
Marvel Universe have some pretty sweet
superpowers what’s wrong is I can’t
touch my boyfriend without killing him
other than that I’m wonderful
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for the top 10
x-men mutant superpowers
for this list we’re looking at
superpowers possessed by the mutants of
Marvel Comics both good and evil we’re
ranking these powers based on their
overall usefulness as well as potential
and not ranking the heroes themselves
number 10 intangibility shadow cat it
has come to my attention that you have a
mutant power the ability to walk through
solid matter I believe you call it
phasing out of all the mutant super
powers having the ability to totally
disregard the laws of physics always
comes in handy
Shadowcat possesses not only the ability
to pass through solid matter but she can
also allow for the passage of other
people or objects as long as she remains
in contact with him using this ability
tactically is key to Shadowcat success
and she has gotten very good at thinking
outside the box
number nine thermo Kinesis Iceman
with this mutants ability to lower his
body temperature to obscene levels
combined with the ability to freeze and
manipulate moisture in the air granting
limitless possibilities while bringing
his own body to a crystallized ice form
ice man’s severe temperature levels can
freeze almost anything around him
now it really doesn’t matter how strong
you are when you’re frozen in a block of
ice using his power both defensively and
offensively this power is always a force
to be reckoned with on the battlefield
time for you number eight weather
manipulation storm the power to control
the weather may come with a few caveats
but there’s no denying the potential of
storms power
with quite literally no limitations
storm has to exercise extreme control
over her power and over her emotional
state as it and her powers are directly
connected you know what happens to a
toad when it’s struck by lightning with
this power you could sum it up things
like devastating lightning storms could
raise or lower the temperature and
manipulate the environment itself
number seven energy absorption sebastian
shaw and bishop
while most people tend to avoid taking
hits in a fight this mutant power allows
for some serious repercussions to anyone
who attacks them kinetic radiant and
conductive energy directed at mutants
like Sebastian Shaw or Bishop can be
absorbed and utilized against their
opponents afterwards
in the case of shop this includes
physical blows such as punches or
projectiles where Bishop can absorb
energy like cyclopses optic blast the
more powerful the energy that hits them
the more devastating their
counter-attack number six healing factor
many mutants
one of the most common powers in the
x-men universe a healing factor makes
those who possess it almost impossible
to kill
accelerated healing provides staying
power mid-battle and Wolverine in
particular has pushed this ability
further than anyone else even surviving
being ripped in half by the Hulk the
power doesn’t come with a higher
tolerance to pain however and any damage
the mutant takes still hurts them as
much as it would hurt the next guy
so having nerves of steel is necessary
number 5 teleportation Nightcrawler
BAM like intangibility the power of
instant teleportation makes Nightcrawler
almost untouchable this power can be
performed with just a moment’s thought
and allows Nightcrawler to excel in
almost any fight while Nightcrawler
scope of travel is limited he’s been
able to teleport up to two miles from
his initial position and as simple as
the ability made see this power actually
sends him to another dimension
during the brief transition for place to
place
his mastery of skill and spatial
awareness allows him to avoid
teleporting into solid objects which
might get messy
number four power absorption road while
most are confined to their individual
power the ability to borrow another
mutants powers leaves road with almost
no limitations with simple skin-to-skin
contact
rogue can absorb the powers of not only
any mute but many non mutants as well on
occasion rogue has even been known to
store powers for later use and unleash
multiple powers at once controlling this
ability is almost impossible making it
as much as a gift as it is a curse
number three impersonation mystique this
mutant power is living proof that
imitation is the best form of flattery
this power gives the user the ability to
transform into anyone they want straight
from memory even their voice evens a
voice even the voice there are a few
mutants besides mystique that have this
power and it’s most often used for
nefarious purposes such as infiltration
and sabotage the sheer amount of chaos
this power can cause is incalculable and
in clever hands it can turn hero against
hero hey hey it’s me prove it you’re a
dick
okay number two magnetism magneto give a
mutant the dominion over all things
metal and the results may be hellish
Magneto’s powers allow him to move bend
and contort this material at will
with metal being so readily available
this power is always useful the extent
of his power varies from story to story
and sometimes magneto can perform huge
feats such as pulling a submarine right
out of the ocean
his offense also works as his best
defense with his ability to summon a
magnetic force field and even levitate
himself above the ground
before we had a large top pick here are
a few honorable mentions
to Eternity passes away just to spend
them with you
number one telepathy Professor X Jean
Grey and Ella frost the telepath I
shouldn’t be able to feel him at this
distance let’s face it don’t we all wish
we could read the minds of others
reading other people’s thoughts is only
the tip of the iceberg when it comes to
telepathy depending on the strength of
the telepath this power allows one to
communicate over great distances
pinpoint the location of specific people
through this consciousness and even
control the actions of others that’s
enough Erik let them go while the skill
is fairly common shared by Jean Grey and
Emma Frost no one has yet been able to
exemplify the power as well as Professor
X get out of my head Charles do you
agree with our list
oh I’m sorry cocoon what mutant ability
do you think is the most badass trust me
