This is a test to find out who the most durable MCU character is. First, let's list down the contenders:

1. Luke Cage
2. Black Panther with Vibranium suit
3. Scarlet Witch with TK shields up
4. Ironman (pick strongest armor available)
5. Thor
6. Loki
7. Hulk
8. Drax
9. Vision (no phasing)
10. Giant-man
11. Ghost Rider (AOS)


The contenders will be put through a series of challenges that will test their durability. They can't fight or use their powers to assist them (other than Scarlet Witch's shields), they are to simply allow themselves to be hit or thrown around. You get eliminated if you die or tap-out/give-up. A knockout is NOT considered an elimination. It should be noted however that you don't get healed or revived after every challenge. So if you get knocked out on a previous challenge, you get dragged into the next challenge whether you're conscious or not.

It should also be noted that there are no rest times between challenges, so take into account not only the character's durability but also their endurance, pain threshold, healing and mental toughness.


The challenges:

1. The entire Persian army in 300 peppers them with arrows
2. Each gets hit by an SUV traveling at 150 mph
3. A line of 20 abrams tanks unload on them for a whole 5 minutes.
4. Warmachine unloads his entire arsenal on each one at point blank range
5. Danny hits each one with 2 Ironfists to the face
6. Wolverine gives each one 4 slashes to the chest and 2 stabs.
7. 40 chitauri flyers bombard the group with shots for 2 minutes.
8. Ares bombards the group with lightning for 2 minutes
9. Johnny Storm surrounds the group in a Supernova
10. They all get dropped from an airplane 300 feet high
11. They all lie on the floor and Doomsday gets 5 minutes to pound on each individual as much as he wants.
12. 30 minute make-out session with Rogue in the nude
13. Nuclear strike


Who's the last man standing? Does anyone clear? Who gets eliminated where?

Well Hulk would do better in all this scenarios.

Hulk is number 1.

Then....Hmmm...

Damn the thing is that some individuals would do better in some scenarios than others...

Black Panther's Vibranium suit makes him fit better in all the scenarios.

After that i don't really know...

Thor has the best durability bar none. He has taken dlfar more damage from much more powerful enemies than anybody on this list. The Sokovia explosion absolutely shits on everything everybody else has gone through in the entire MCU history.

What I mean is, if you took every single hit that every character on this list took in the entirety of MCU history, it would still not add up to the amount of damage that Thor has withstood. You can do that with his damage output as well.

And I am not wanking Thor and saying he was 100 percent the Sokovia, that was his power doubled back. Or even saying he only took the part that destroyed the upper layer which included just the city and not the landmass is magnitudes above anything the Hulk or anybody else on here has withstood.

Nobody here is taking a Doomsday Pounding for 5 minutes or a make out with rogue

More than the Hulk? I found that hard to believe.

Hulk would survive Doomsday.

Idk if Thor would survive a Nuke.

Not too sure about all the rest, but tempted to say Wanda goes down first. Her shields aren't bad when she can maintain them, but she has yet to use them against anything other than gunfire without them eventually giving out (at least as far as I can recall). They got overwhelmed by a few energy blasts from Ultron bots in AoU, and eventually failed at containing the Crossbones blast from Civil War, and we saw how that ended up.

Well, MCU Ghost Rider supposedly withstood a city-level plutonium bomb when he and his uncle got shunted to another dimension on an episode of AoS. But yeah, that was offscreen, so not valid for MvF discussions.
