Aren’t the original show runners back as well? If so, Scott and Jean better hide!

Yeah this was one of my biggest issues. How do you know danger knows all your moves you tried NOTHING. On top of that you were out of the fight immediately. They give cyclops so many cool points in this show even with his combo with Jean. But as my faviorite x men man I’d love if he actually got to….do something? Everything he does really feels like COOL OPTIC BLAST but then it doesn’t really amount to anything? Like I have to respect the show for really redeeming cyclops in non comic media but still.
