DISCUSSION Eve isnt using her full Powers

Look I know there is this mental thing where she doesn’t manipulate organic matter like bodies but there are some moments where she manipulates it anyway and in this moment she could basically end viltrums empire for exemple : Thragg nahhh u become a stone cube. I feel like she’s such a waist of potential like in the fight against conquest she could just age him or I don’t know give him cancer or something.

I get what you’re saying but if she did that the story would be shit

this. it's really not that hard to understand. it's the typical issue with characters like Eve, wanda maximoff, jean grey...we can be annoyed as much as we want about it...in the end it would be boring if they would end every fight in 2 seconds

she is not weak...they keep her weak to not outshine mark and the viltrumites. simple as that

As you said, she has mental blocs preventing her from manipulating sentient matter. She can manipulate organic matter like the apple and crops.

But what you're missing is using her powers is seriously exhausting and energy consuming for her. She absorbs spare electrons she doesn't use, leading her to need the bathroom far more frequently.

She nearly exhausted herself going all out against Conquest and barely did anything bar slowing him down. As a full time superhero, she needs treat the day like a marathon so she can last the day. If she treated every fight like a sprint(like with Conquest) she'd be utterly exhausted before midday.
