Oh, I dont know- some of the X-Men wins were utter bullshit.
That crap where illiana beat the Black Widow is universally derided as crap- for her ENTIRE HISTORY Illiana's Soulsword can no even interact with physocal matter- it passes through people, only affecting magical creatures and disrupting spells and such, yet they just made up this crap where her sword "shocks mortals unconsious on touch".
...the hell?!?

They also made Thor the Phoinex five's whipping boy- he should have been able to gate those bozos to another dimension at least for a while.

PLus, they obviously put the Avengers at a huge disadvantage by limiting their membership- Moondragon has been called "even more powerful than I am" by professor X and if theAvengers had brought her in...forgetaboutit!
Or Sersi! Sersi would have turned the X-Men into the ungrateful little piglets they are!

So far the best matchups have been Iron Man/Emma frost and Iron Man/Magneto, Cap busting Gambit's nose and Colussus/Red Hulk fighting underwater- those were very well written.
The scene where the Black Panther tells storm their marriage is over after she had sided with the X-Men and Wakanda was destroyed by Namor was SO nicely handled- heartbreaking in how Storm saw just how badly she had fucked up and how out of control the Phoinex Five were.

Still, if Seige and Fear Itself are indicators, AvX will ebd with...a whimper. they already have the lameass follow up miniseries in Previews, just like they made The Fearless, which not only sucked donkeys, it resolved NOTHING.
Expect simmular disapointment and anticlimax from this schlock series- hell X-astonishing X-Men, New mutants, Spider Man, Iron Man, Thor, Red Hulk and Secret Avengers are already ignoring the whole thing...thankfully.
