They'll unleash Psionic hell on the watch. Gamora, Drax, Pip, Moondragon and possibly Warlock will all fall to this. The more notable ones (Drax and Gamora) will be taken under the big 4's thrall and forced to fight their comrades.
PS:
"(ex. If a character like Superman is in a thread, it'll be assumed that it's the current version unless mentioned otherwise by the thread starter, the same goes with Thanos without the IG, and so on)." - the rules
No, posting the team name does not mean this is the version we are using, at least to the common sense having posters.
And I don't see the thread starter saying Pre-Mind Gem/Mind Gem Moondragon. But nice semantics try though
Not really.
In the meantime, Thanos pours into Mag's shield, and then blasts them all.
Awesome, have Thanos divert his attention away from his partners getting mindraped, makes it that much sweeter when Drax puts his hand through his chest again (let's be honest, I don't think X would have any qualms ordering Drax to kill THANOS).
Additionally, because you correctly think a lot of them can take down Thanos if working together,
Fixed your typo.
you think they can take down Thanos, Maxam and Warlock together.
Are you kidding? Nate Grey can put down a gemless Warlock by himself, Jean Grey could put down a gemless Warlock by herself (especially a Warlock that just got dog piled on the psychic plane), ef a Nate. And I'm pretty sure Gamora (who's under someone's thrall) won't even need to be ordered to kill Maxam with the quickness. Meanwhile everyone else is out waging holy jihad against Thanos.
Which just proves my original point.
The made up facts?
90's Cable's best feats weren't even offensive. Hell, 90's Cable virtually had no offensive feats.
Putting down Hulk is pretty elite company. X has just recently said he couldn't do it his damn self.
And my possibility stands, with or without Moondragon... she's hardly the main point in this battle.
Concession accepted.
Thanos could destroy the 12 by himself, so it hardly matters.
Sure, if they fought him like idiots using direct combat, but if they actually worked as a team? Much more often then not it's a no bueno.
Silly me to assume that characters listed under "The Infinity Watch" are reffering to their Infinity Watch versions.
"(ex. If a character like Superman is in a thread, it'll be assumed that it's the current version unless mentioned otherwise by the thread starter, the same goes with Thanos without the IG, and so on)."
Silly me for following the rules.
Which would be why I said "originally"... as in, prior to edit.
The edit to me shows clarification, since everyone thought Thanos would get a reality gem. Oh
Yes. Because they would normally have their gems for this fight, hence the clarification,
No they wouldn't, outside of Warlock, none of them have had their gems
for oh about 15 years.
because it was logical to think that Infinity Watch versions of Infinity Watch characters would have the gems.
I don't see Infinty Watch versions anywhere, just Infinity Watch, which happens to be the team name of this group of people. "Versions" is just what "StyleSmurph" sees on his version of KMC.
The point was it was logical for a safeguard to be placed on something that powerful, regardless of Moondragon or not. And, those three only have the potential to harness an outside force of awesome power. They don't reach that themselves.
Kinda like Moondragon with her mind gem.
Again, that's completely irrelevant.
Just fun facts refuting stuff you brought up
.
Moondragon is most likely her most powerful version, and Thanos could take the team by himself,
Not to anyone with sense.
Oh and Moondragon was more powerful w/o the gem then with? News!
Maybe Adam Warlock takes out Drax long before he accomplishes anything?
Class 40-gemless Warlock would be lucky to give Rasputin a fight, let alone friggin Drax, cuts through annihilation ships like hot butter, the Destroyer.
You have a bunch of useless telepaths,
Who have just dominated your team.
Iceman,
Glad I've shown you that Bobby "wields his powers with competency."
Oops it was sarcasm when you said it.
and a couple Cl. 100's... actually, just Monolith, really.
And Nate Grey and Drax (should he be amped by Teke from one of my USELESS TELEPATHS lulz) oooo and a amped Gamora (who is about class 80 base more help from USELESS TELEPATHS)
So, what, Iceman and Monolith vs. Thanos? Lulz.
And Magneto. And Nate. And Gamora. And Drax. And Cable (how's Thanos's cyberpathy resistance). And Rasputin. And Polaris.
Ooh we got a Thanos slaying army.
Magneto "and company" get oneshotted,
That's if Thanos can get to them through the shielding and army of pipe hitters.
unless they spend their time hiding behind a shield
Magneto can't multi-task?
Besides, Magneto gets finished when Thanos decides to kill him while his allies struggle with Thanos' mind... as we've already established.
What have we established? A young Nate Grey infiltrated Thanos's (oops I mean Thanos clone, and based on context, a more powerful one at that) mind with no problems (while he was in another dimension at that) and was scared? I doubt he'll be scared with his mother, Chuck and kinda twin there guiding him
oh and being more experienced.
Drax and Gamora ain't worth shit in this fight. They both get taken out by Adam Warlock and Maxam.

Current Gamora could likely solo anybody with the Godslayer.
So now that you've actually done some thought on the subject and realised how foolish your first post was and how close the fight is Gamora "ain't worth shit in this fight" when I can use her. Goody.
Oh and trust me when I say
the only thing Adam Warlock brings to this fight
is cunning
but there is no complex plans here, he's too outgunned and had NO prep and is already down to two people he doesn't really trust.
You doubt he could, especially with two herald levelers by his side?
Adam Warlock - soul gem < Herald level
Both of whom have been subdued.
Magneto died back at the beginning of the game.
I know, we've already established that the most logical action taken by Magneto is to fight Thanos man to man, especially given how notoriously powerful Thanos is. Because he just rolls like that.
Thanos can also call up a personal, body-tight forcefield... as he did
Why would he have to? He easily beats this team.
when he fought Odin (iirc). I'd like to see Living Monolith get a "critical hit" through that.
This is where I would post a scan of Drax piercing Thanos's heart followed by two of these
smileys, fortunately for you, I don't really care enough about this argument to do such.
Lulz at your opinion of AW...
Is it as funny as my argument which you feel is valid enough to take time out your day to respond to?
But educate me, how's Adam Warlock putting down anyone above Iceman without the soul gem.
As for Iceman, he still doesn't do anything to make him worth recognition in a fight vs. Thanos.
I imagine freezing his innards and general durability would allow him to annoy Thanos at least allowing a big hitter to get a good shot in, especially when the best defense for this attack is Thanos being warped into various shapes by the In-Betweener's magic.
And Maxam. And Adam Warlock.
Have both been butt burned multiple times, we know.

Wait, you're saying that Warlock, who stalemated Thor, is Iron-Man level?
Same Warlock who got chumped (he's never stalemated Thor, boy) by Thor WITH the Surfer AND Soul Gem
and a boulder to the head.
Btw Iron Man has a legit W over Thor
what about Warlock?
