If you're no limiting him then what's to stop Thanos from blowing up the planet which is actually within his power?


Luck.

Isn't it at best a quickdraw then? Whoever activates their power first, Longshot or Thanos?

He can resist reality warp all he likes; not sure how it helps when suddenly Squirrel Girl appears.

Which is a tactic Longshot has used before. Fighting Dracula? Oh, Blade just so happens to be there! A werewolf Cap? Oh, here's a Cap with the exact serum just so needed to revert him! Magneto about to attack? Oh, here are his allergies to make his powers fire suddenly! Etc etc.

So if, as you say, he is immune to that, then he wouldn't have been defeated by such shenanigans. But he was - all thanks to the machinations of Order and Chaos, who manipulated probability to defeat him.

But take your point that he is NOT immune - then the degree to which he is immune depends.

You see, it doesn't matter to Longshot. All that matters is that he is OK. So what needs to happen to save him, will save him. Maybe Squirrel Girl (street tier?) just so happens to be stopping by. Nothing to do with Thanos, so why would he be affected?

But Squirrel Girl would be the ONE foe he definitely loses to. And so, she will appear.

Just as an example.


Oh sure, Order and Chaos can manipulate events around Thanos to bring him down while Thanos is still outside of them; that just means they cant tamper with him directly...

So if random Ordered and Chaotic events have no effect on him (or atleast minimal effect on his being) then Longshotwont be able to beat Thanos by causing his AoE to rebound and KO him as you suggested earlier...

What happens if Thanos mind controls him?

I don't see why Longshot is allowed to include other heroes in this that will just show up. It doesn't seem to be a scenario fight.

@DarkSaint

Who has Longshot lost to?

Or has he never suffered a loss in his comicbook career?

Yeah, tactics like that are not allowed in the forum setting if I remember correctly...

Luck - just as he tries, Thanos gets hit in the back from Cyclops (or whoever).

Here, just as two vampires are about to attack him (Dracula and a vamp Wolverine), guess who shows up randomly:

Yeah I really do just see him getting slapped down by Thanos. He has a plethora of powers to choose from.

I mean since technically it would be lucky if Thanos killed him via vaporizing him as opposed to a slow death, right? So we do have the luck kicking in kind of.

No question, that is a very haxed ability... thumb up

But this is a forum fight, not a senario in a comicbook where other characters are potentially lurking about and can just happen to be in the right place at the right time to assist/save Longshot...

Or from a comic where In-Betweener was specifically summoning those characters...

Yeah, it's not how it works.

With recent depictions, Squirrel Girl would suddenly appear and Thanos would lose. That's how it kicks in.

About to be eaten by a werewolf Cap? Boom, the one guy who just so happens to carry a cure, pops up out of nowhere:

So in other words Longshot can't beat Thanos, he can just make it so other people who can beat Thanos appear?

I mean if someone else shows up and beats Thanos, that is a win for them not Longshot.

IB wasn't summoning all of them.

Besides, Squirrel Girl would be on the field, no?

So wait, Inbetweener was actually the one summoning up those characters that were appearing to save Longshot?

He can also affect the surroundings (so when mind controlled Deadpool was about to kill someone, a nearby chimichanga stand just so happened to blow up, which snapped DP back to reality).

Or when in a MExican standoff:
