classic Strange

Classic Strange vs Thanos, tough one on six.

6

Trouble at 5 or stop at 6

They might be able to clear 6 with prep from Strange.

good challenge at six

6 or 7. Probably 6.

Stop at 6.

6 or 7. Although, 9 seems like less of a challenge than those two, with 2 days Strange could easily find something to put Odin down.

6

They go through 6, but stop at 7

5-9 would give me goosebumps and i wouldn't care who'd win.
