The Phoenix is the ultimate embodiment of creation and reinvention in Marvel lore, while Chaos Magic is the oldest form of mysticism, able to rewrite reality itself. Both the Phoenix and the Scarlet Witch can rewrite reality on a foundational level.
The events of Avengers vs X-Men suggested the Phoenix Force is particularly vulnerable to Chaos Magic, with Wanda battling effectively against the Phoenix Force-empowered Namor and Emma Frost.

During House of M, Wanda Maximoff was consumed with grief, rewriting the entirety of reality and ultimately all but wiping out mutantkind. Likewise, the influence of the Dark Phoenix turned Jean Grey into a genocidal killer, with entire planets perishing in the Phoenix's flame. Fans have long debated whether Wanda or Jean has the greatest well of power, and now it seems they'll find out the definitive answer.
Marvel 2099 Is Setting Up an Epic Tournament

Marvel recently redefined Earth-2099, merging several different versions of Marvel's future into a single continuity. Now, the entire reality will engage in a battle for its life, with some of the mightiest heroes and villains dragged into a horrifying tournament that will settle the fate of billions of lives.
While Jean Grey vs Scarlet Witch is undoubtedly the title fight, icons like Age of Apocalypse Wolverine, Spider-Man 3099 and more will clash over this five-issue epic, deciding some of the hottest 'hero vs hero' debates of all time.
The End 2099 #3 is coming February 25 from Marvel Comics, with the series beginning December 10.
