Teleport, of course. It's the most open to abuse.

Why yes, i do think like this normally, why do you ask?

Teleporting would definitely have the most interesting uses, but how wonderful would it be to actually fly?!

I find it interesting that you think teleporting is the most open to abuse, when as far as I can see invisibility *only* has uses for naughtyness :)

Ah you see by "Abuse" I mean uses beyond the initial.

For instance I'd prefer teleport over fly because Teleport effectively allows me most of the functionality of "Fly" for free.
I can teleport anywhere? I can fly! Teleport high up. Glide. (Like parachuters do when they jump)
When you get bored or too close to the ground, teleport again.
Repeat as needed.

Next lets look at invisibility. Most of the uses can be replaced with Teleport and a nice fast action camera.

Go somewhere pitch black. Open shutter on camera. teleport in and out of the place you want to see. Close shutter on camera.

See what I mean? Teleporting allows you to do amazing things compared to flying.

Wanna destroy something? Teleport into an airbase and steal a pressure suit. Teleport to a construction site and steal an I-Beam. Teleport to the edge of space above your target and let it go.

Poor mans nuke there and then.
