Yo guys, click on the label to see the image I drew.

Whatever they'd do your vote will decide who the winner will be and I'll do my thing afterward.

Okay, so… Scarlet Witch’s powers are… confusing. She can tap into magical fields and manipulate them like how her father, Magneto, taps into magnetic fields. She has also had the ability to manipulate reality and probability, even going so far as to change history and create new timelines, but that particular power seems to have been only temporary. Her magical abilities were designed by her writers as a sort of deus ex machina, as they could be a help or a hindrance depending on what the plot needed at the time. Without the proper control, she could alter probability in ways she didn’t expect, causing who knows what to happen. She can also fly and teleport. Zatanna is also a powerful magic user, as well as a skilled illusionist, showgirl and stage magician. She is also an escape artist who is skilled in hand to hand combat. She usually casts spells through logomancy (says what she wants backwards). Some people think this is the only way she can cast spells, and try to stop her from speaking, but that isn’t true. She can cast spell in other ways. Logomancy just helps her focus her magic and hide her powers from the “dark ones.” The thing is, both of their powers can be defined as “magic” and are left intentionally vague in some respects so the writers can use them however they need to. Both have also been considered the most powerful magic users in their respective worlds (Scarlet Witch = Marvel, Zatanna = DC) So, it’s hard to say who is more powerful. If magic was taken off the table, Zatanna would have the advantage since she is trained in fighting, but over the years, Scarlet Witch has done some crazy, Earth shattering things with her magic, which I think makes her more powerful. HOWEVER, Zatanna seems to have more focus and control over her powers than Scarlet Witch, especially when tapping into seriously dangerous magic, so it is very likely Scarlet Witch would lose control over her powers if she took things too far, while Zatanna would be smarter and more strategic, which might give her an overall advantage if Scarlet Witch doesn’t overpower her right out of the gate.
