It bothers me when certain posters argue what happens in a comic (PIS or no PIS) is God but at certain times they dismiss some things in favor of what will happen in a forum fight.
They are on both sides of the fence.
If The writer wrote Thanos to be afraid of Gladiator then the writer is saying that if they fought it would be a tough ass fight for Thanos. This is common sense. If we dismiss the writers intentions then we must dismiss the notion of Odin being afraid of Mangog implying Mangog's power. Because in reality, Mangog never shown shit in his battles. He never shown he was stronger, quicker, more skilled and more versatile than a high herald. He only shown higher than high herald durability. And Odin beat him with ease (something he could have done in the first place).

Just like Gladiator has never done shit all in combat, it's funny how ppl try and say Thanos feared Gladiatior yet completely ignore what Kalkark said about Thanos when the was locked in the Klyn together....trolling much?
So if you want to argue what happens >>>>> what's implied by the writer then fine. But when Mangog threads are discussed don't go back to arguing what's implied >>>>> what is shown. Because Mangog has suspect strength.
Originally posted by h1a8what boost?in War of kings he struggled with Black Bolt and got owned by a random Alien called a Elder and was losing in a team against Black Dwarf, give any examples of the boost and not getting totally humiliated at the hands of a P5 isn't the game changer.

Couldn't give a shit about Mangog argument and it's irrelevant to this thread, stop dodging.

But there has to be a reason why he was afraid to face Gladiator. Ok he is faster and stronger but Thanos can amp his punches, i wonder why he shit his pants and bfr himself. Also he had help, Adam would have saved him i think.
I wonder how you can say dumb things all the time, but I've accepted it's a talent of yours. You just want Glads to win, so you can support your real agenda of thinking Supes can beat Thanos. He can't, and neither can Glads. Thanos was never afraid of Glads.. He beat him easily in the damn comic. People like to say Thanos was afraid of hulk.. yet every time they've faced off... Thanos didn't run and hide.. he dealt with Hulk and EASILY. Same thing here.. we can all make up stories about THanos is afraid of Glads till he gets chumped and then all you'll hear is crickets.

Thanos hid then ran. At least he was smart about things. Otherwise he would have been thrashed, as suggested on panel. 👆 You get thrashed! sneer
Originally posted by Prof. T.C McAbeProve he was scared of gladiator because at this point I don't think you know what the word means.

Originally posted by Rao Kal ElDoes Magneto have reactions that show him reacting to faster beings than Quicksilver?
If this were a CIS battle it is reasonable to think Speed kills, to give a good example of this think Movie Magneto vs Quicksilver, I believe Magneto should be more powerful, but I also believe that Magneto will not be able to react to Quicksilver.Gladiator like I said before is a character made to loose, his character is just like that it does not matter how good of stats he might have, he will most likely loose regardless if he faces Gambit, Cannonball or someone else, is LIKELY he will loose in a CIS / PIS dictated story
But anyway. You think Gladiator wins, but you continually say he will lose. Either pick a side or the other.
Originally posted by Rao Kal ElIt really doesn't matter what words you mince to get to the conclusion. All that matters is that Thanos has reacted to two people that are way faster than Gladiator.
Nope, I was talking about IT and anyone who might want us to think that Thanos posses nanosecond reaction time
If you want to focus on the nanosecond aspect of it, that's on you. Whether what I'm arguing is indirectly that Thanos has nanosecond reaction speeds, I don't care. That's not my point.
What I'm saying is that Thanos can and has reacted to faster beings. The guy was slapping blasts out of Maker's hands, you don't think he'd be able to react to Gladiator "I take seconds to get there, but I apparently have nanosecond speed when I'm there"?
This whole focus on nanosecond is grinding. And the guy who wrote that doesn't even think beings can go faster than light in space, and if that's the case, it would make sense that they were simply going lightspeed in combat since light moves 12 inches in a nanosecond, and the punch was "nanoseconds" later.
So... lightspeed is what you're saying in other words in that instance.
Ignoring ulterior motives. But your entire argument is based off a feeling anyway. It's not based off proof since that's being ignored on both sides. Thanos isn't nanosecond because it doesn't feel right. Yet he reacted to a guy that was pretty much moving at implied warp speed throughout the whole arc. But... that's to be ignored because Thanos having any sort of "nanosecond" reaction feat is stupid.
Originally posted by Rao Kal ElYou really think the "no pis" rule works in favor of nanosecond reactions? For that to work you would have to literally override every single one of Gladiator's other feats. Every. Single. One. But no, yeah, every other feat except the word nanosecond is pis. Good work there. And yes, the entire first half of Starblast is pis except one word.
I believe this is easily explained by one of the forum rules"No Mentioning Events of PIS
"[/B]
Plot Induced Stupidity, or PIS, is when characters don't use their abilities or skills to the fullest extent as shown before, even within their personality ranges, for the sake of the story plotline. It makes lesser powered characters an actual challenge against higher powered characters in the comics. [b]Examples of PIS include Flash stories lasting longer than three panels, or Toy Man as a threat to Superman.
However, if you're going to start dissecting segments of my post, it's very interesting you're ignoring the important part of this entire thread.

Among other things.Can you offer any proof in conjuncture of the nanosecond feat of Gladiator successfully blitzing Thanos?
If this was a Superman thread you'd be all over this statement with a bunch of scans. But here you just ignore Gladiator's complete lack of adequate blitzing because it said nanosecond about him. And apparently everything else is pis.
Not only that, but you just called something that happened in the exact same page pis. And that's that it took seconds for Gladiator to get to Hyperion. Which seems highly relevant when that's what Glads is going to need to do to Thanos.
Originally posted by Rao Kal ElYes, woah is Superman that his clone doesn't get a win over Thanos.
I agree when it comes down to Gladiator he is a dum dum when he fights and it does not help that He is a CLONE of Superman in the enemy camp.
And I'm like 90 percent sure no one on the Thanos side cares about the clone of Superman thing. But it does seem to come in handy for defending Gladiator. I don't think you or Prof has ever argued on the side of Gladiator before this thread. H1 just hates Thanos so same old shit. And Enzeru is just trying to make Thanos out to be really slow so he can have Sentry blitz him in threads.
It's all ulterior motives here. All Thanos fans want is that Thanos beats the biggest jobber in comics. And it's become utterly retarded in the process when the Gladiator side refuses to post any proof to back up anything they say. But yes, woah is Superman. I'd love to see your reaction if h1, and a band of people were arguing for a decent length of time about Starfire beating Superman or something. And the only actual proof being used was a ****ing Tom Brevoort forumspring about Thor.
Quite honestly, I don't remember a more pathetic argument on this forum for a while. And Carver tried to tell me the events of Infinity in the order of it happened, but at least he had proof. At least he didn't just try and say everything is pis but this word.
Originally posted by Rao Kal ElI'd get omniblasted by Thanos and killed.
But lets say for a moment that YOU had nanosecond reflexes and perceptions, that you normally would not use in a regular setting, for what ever reason that might be. You will perceive anything in normal time, but the moment you decided to let you "CIS OFF" (I don't mean this as an insult, just could not find the proper term to use) everything around you will be moving in slow motion, the things you could not do before will be possible now and if you were fighting with someone whose perceptions are below you in terms of speed, I believe, that person couldn't do anything to stop you.
So again, absolutely no proof is offered. Literally nothing. All you're using is nanoseconds, which works out to about lightspeed in that instance, and it's only lightspeed at close range since it took him seconds to traverse a couple miles in the same page. 😬
Where is the scans on scans on scans to show Gladiator is capable of blitzing Thanos without him getting hit?
And onto the larger point.
And this is against a guy who's only ever been KO'ed twice in comics (one was Squirrel Girl if that makes it better, which it should). But suddenly we're to believe that a complete lack of winning fights from Gladiator suddenly allows him to beat Thanos? We're to believe that a lack of successful blitzes leads him to successfully blitz and finish off Thanos? Like where is the proof here?
You readily accept that Gladiator is a big loser, but in the same breath you think he should be untouchable. Based on what evidence? I've repeatedly asked for proof, yet I've been given nothing.
