Thanos vs....YOU

lol, ok ok,Scoob I'll give it to you. You picked a good team. No easily exploitable weaknesses, good balance of powers, good defenses against psi attacks, a good mix of strength, speed, energy projection...looks good.

The only flaw is that Thanos is extremely durable - I don't know whether these guys have the firepower necessary to put down Thanos. He took shots from Galactus, Odin, Beyonder, and Tyrant and kept coming. So now that you've picked a team that Thanos couldn't pick apart with easy weaknesses, how will they beat him?

My five against Thanos huh? Sentry's out of the question because I think he's a bit powerful, so here are my five:

Adam Warlock
Dr. Strange
Genis Vell
Silver Surfer
Gilgamesh

Yeah, Sentry wouldn't qualify. It would be a great one on one battle, though.

It seems that Strange and Genis are popular. The problem with this team is that it's pretty heavy with people Thanos knows really well. Thanos knows Surfer's personality, he knows his battle weaknesses. Ditty with Warlock. And I don't know if Genis and Gil have the raw power necessary to break Thanos' shields. How will your team put him down? The scenario is important. 🙂

how will they beat him?........ok...........hmmmm.............lol

ok...... Thanos would see Strange as a threat (as you stated earlier) so he would do a dimension slip, then come back in astral form, Majestic would brutally assault him backed up by marvel while Thor teleports to Asgard to get that belt that doubles his strength, comes back and starts laying into him (Thor has used the added strength from this belt to beat Thanos before) with GL protecting everyone and staying out of the immediate battle by zipping around at full speed, Majestic Thor and Marvel continue to hammer him......... which is probably enough to beat him in itself........ while Strange works up an energy sapping spell to draw off his power and make him more vulnerable

as soon as Thanos has been de-powered Thor claims victory, Hal strips him of all tech with a ring scan, they tell him they are going to throw him in an Asgardian jail but before they can "arrest" him Majestic rushes in and pulls his head off declaring that he is too great a threat to be let to live

You've gotta be f*ckin kidding me.

I just found this:

Real Name: Doop
First Appearance: X-Force #116
Height: 3'5"
Weight: Unrevealed
Powers/Weapons: Unrevealed, Flight
Intelligence: Omniscient
Strength: Incalculable- Can lift in excess of 100 tons

Profile: Doop is the X-Statix's official documentarian. With camera always in hand, Doop records all of the X-Statix's exploits for team meetings, press releases, ego-stroking, and fact-finding. Thanks to Doop's omnipresent filming, the truth was even exposed about the Coach and his plan to kill the Orphan. When sent to evaluate the potential of corkscrew, a possible new recruit, Doop sensed the mutant had a gene that predisposed him to mental illness. Little Doop put down his camera and picked up a hatchet. And corkscrew never joined the team.

That's the most powerful cameraman in comics.

I think Genis and Gilgamesh can break through his shields.

Powers: The Nega-Bands give Captain Marvel the power of flight at speeds past that of light, to breathe in space, and to shoot energy blasts. Captain Marvel also has cosmic awareness, though he is struggling to gain control of it.

Warlock will be the key factor. Of all the people here, Warlock knows Thanos the best, and vice versa. Let's not forget about Strange either. Gilgamesh and Genis are the first strain with a full frontal assault diverting Thanos's attention. Silver Surfer will engage Thanos from the rear. Warlock will come from above all the while the good doctor is finishing up a spell to send Thanos away to another dimension. They can hurt Thanos, but not kill him, the invulnerable bastard. So their only chance I think is to send him away somewhere he can never return from, which is damn near impossible since he is a freaking genius. But, it's possible, and that's my scenario.

My plan would pale in compasrison to these (especially with my team, whose weaknesses have been exposed during the course of this thread), but I love the idea of this thread...it's like a mini-tournament for anyone to jump into if they think they have some good ideas.

Speaking of which, maybe it was decided right before I started browsing and posting on this forum, but how was it decided who was in that tourney that Scoobless is in (he's currently "fighting" Khellendros)???

Oh and only 2 have voted on that thread so far, so check it out too...(haven't cast mine yet, since interest seemed to be lower than the last tourney thread I saw)

P.S. sorry off topic

Thanks, appreciated! I know that Thanos gets a lot of respect here, so I figured, "why not use that reverence for him and force people to pick AGAINST him with their own teams?"

I'm sticking with team amalgam. then team vengeance. then my revised team two. I think those have the best chances.

I should probably make a poll with the submissions to see what the rest of the board thinks of your teams chances against Thanos with a month prep. Maybe in a few days. Anyone else want to submit?

Batman 1million
Martian Manhunter
Kingdom Come Flash
Maestro Hulk
Superman 1million

What are the powers of Batman/Superman 1million? What's KC Flash have over regular Flash?

Maestro Hulk is a villain.

You guys have a poor perception of Thanos' power. If the character is below Odin level, it's not going to touch Thanos. Surfer gets slapped around like a little girl by this guy. You can't beat Thanos with raw power, it just doesn't happen. You have to use tactics and skill.

Captain Mar-vell has beaten Thanos before, I don't see why his son can't. Oh, your gonna say something like he knew Thanos and was more experienced, and I will probably agree with you, but he's not alone in this fight. My team has him teamed up with veterans Adam Warlock, Silver Surfer, Dr. Strange, and the Forgotten One, Gilgamesh. Warlock & Strange will probably come up with a strategy to take Thanos out.

yeah.....it seemed to be forgotten about by the organiser for a little while....... there was a thread asking for entrants to a tournament, you had to pick 7 characters at different power levels

1 from "Everyman" level....... superman types
2 from "Powerful" level............ around Iron Man level
2 from "Powerful street" level... like Spider-Man level
2 from "street" level................ like Captain America/Batman type

for comparison my team is:

Graviton
Wonderman + Vision
Carnage + Puma
Scourge + Hawkeye

it's been interesting to participate in and to watch the others go at it....... unfortunately the organiser tried to do it wit 10 teams in a knockout style..... went from 10 to 5 then to 3 now the final....... apparently 1 team has pretty much been forgotten about

it started a couple of months ago

Two Teams:
1. Reed Richards
2.Batman
3. Superman(Pre)
4.Hal Jordan
5.Smart Hulk

Reed And Bruce Outbrain Him While A GL Ring Protect Hulk And Supes Go At Him... Done...

Team 2:
1. Bugs Bunny
2. Mario
3. Road Runner
4. Wile E. Coyote(He Works With Stark Industries Now... Not Acme)
5. Mighty Mouse

Nuff Said...

Reed Richards. 😉

Bootleg, Mighty Mouse would take the fight by himself...he's not in Marvel, but should probably be considered above Skyfather level....lol.

Superman 1million is one of the Descendants of Supes he has imp blood in him so he is immune to magic. He punched through the time barrier .He is like SupesX1000. Batman 1mill is from the 825 century. He mastered most martial arts in the universe, has an iq of 1045, has tech that makes Doom look like he got his from a stone age flea market. KC flash completely mastered the Speed Force he can be almost everywhere at once.

Well than I will have GL Kyle Rayner

well then Supes 1 mill is definitely out of it due to being over the power limit......KC Flash might be as well
