THE POWER TO SEE INTO THE FUTURE.

But the person spends all their time on the internet complaining how an unreleased new hero is a "clone" of an existing hero in another MOBA game. Or complaining how bad a game/movie is before it's even released.

Will they predict natural disasters?

NO! THEY WILL COMPLAIN ABOUT PETTY THINGS.

Cool female superhero name of Phototropia, but it means that her power is the ability to point towards the Sun, even with her eyes shut.

Is that the ability to win one single argument on the internet, after which you can never do it again, or the ability to win an argument on the internet at will?

At will, but with the restriction that it wont work if the argument matters in any way. (ie, your talking to someone with influence instead of the normal "bottom half of the internet")
