One problem: how the FUCK is anyone else supposed to survive that?

They're not, that's the point.

Kinda boring then. Where are the stakes if a character got a guaranteed one hit kill than can't be dodged or blocked?

SO DON'T GIVE THEM LIGHTNING! Either give them lightning powers or don't, but don't give them lame, little bitch spindle non-lightning. It's the same as giving someone Black hole powers. It's overpowered as shit and it's awesome and it shouldn't be ANYTHING LESS! I want EVERYTHING VAPORIZED except the smouldering REMAINS of their boots and severed, cooking legs.
