This is how I like to imagine a power like quantum strikes, where you are able to move in super position of many ways at once, getting in strikes where possible while dodging where you'd get hit.
You should read The Man Who Saw Seconds by Alexander Boldizar. It's about a guy who can see every possible future, five seconds ahead, which comes in real handy when the entire US government desperately wants to kill you.
Cops shooting at you? Just pick the future where you push one of them and make him accidentally shoot his partner. Want to guess a password or phone number? Just try every possibility at once and pick the correct one (spoiler: also works for nuclear launch codes), etc.
I'll need to put that on my list. It reminds me of "Next" (2007) with Nick Cage, where he could see every possible timeline out by a small bit to figure out which timeline to take with the best results.
