Yeah, it confirmed that the struggle could wreck the cosmos. It also showed that Warlock never had the power to harm LT, only everyone else at present. LT was always Warlock's superior while Warlock couldn't do a thing to LT or reverse anything LT did.
Something Dr Strange did repeatedly in a confrontation with Adam W with the IG.
Warlock went easy on him. Even then Strange was pulling talismans after talismans to counter. Even when he canceled Nebula's wish, Nebula was inexperienced at using the IG; she even later was having a hard time with the deities and her inexperience was the reason given by the deities.
Your silly if you really think LT canceling Warlock's attack on the court with a snap of the finger is something in the same league as what Strange did against an inexperienced Nebula or Warlock. Eternity, Galactus, and the others were getting stomped and LT restored order - the deities were in perfect shape as they were when the trial began. Strange isn't stopping that Warlock when Eternity and Galactus couldn't.
Strange was taking orders from Warlock and hidding from Thanos w/ the IG. Helping Warlock gather a team to counter Thanos. Against Strange, Warlock could've erased Strange from existence any time he wanted - to think he couldn't would be silly.
LT went on to say he didnt know whether he had the power to stand up against Adam Warlock with the IG. He then went on to persuade AW to give up his power rather than forcing him to find out which would result in the destruction of the universe anyway. Not conclusive im afraid.
He said that and then in the IG and IW showed LT being above the IG and could rule against it's use and even cancel it's powers. Eternity asked LT to intervene during IG. When Warlock had it, again Eternity asked no other than LT. Warlock's rampage affected everyone except LT who casually canceled and restored everyone back to the way they were. In IW, even with all the Cosmic Cubes he had, Magus opted to get LT to reverse his ruling of the IG. The IG has never been shown to affect LT or reverse anything LT has done.
He said his masters power was beyond the IG. He was unsure about where how his own power would fare. Thats a fact.
Right, and then Warlock's rampage was stopped. And then his ruling prevented the Gems unison. And every other before and after showed LT as being above the IG.
Going by his on panel feats its certainly doesnt stand to reason that he is more powerful than the IG.
Feats? Where he ruled against Warlock. And then LT reason with Warlock saying something along the lines of "power and responsibility." Hoggoth and Oshtur said the same line to Agamotto and reasoned with him over his fight with Galactus. That doesn't mean they both (each his equal) would have a problem at stopping Agamotto if they had to.
I need only point out how LT performed against Korvac who merely had the assembled power of half a dozen of the universes cosmic entities(Less than IG). His judgement was shrugged off and he sealed off that universe and fled.
I'll also remind you of Jean going Jgg, Jgg after Magneto owned her. Where was the ressurection then? Life and rebirth?

And what was that? Did the Star Brand beat him? He prevented others from using it.
Im sorry but its not conclusive that hes beyond the IG, its not even apparent from his appearances.
Yeah, and where did you get it from? Was it when Eternity asked LT to stop Thanos? When Eternity then asked him to stop Warlock? When LT was not affected by Warlock's assault on the court? Or when Warlock was shocked that LT restored order with a snap of the finger? Is it when LT canceled and prevented the IG from working together. Maybe it's when Magus had about six Cosmic Cubes and yet still needed LT to reverse his ruling so Magus could attain a working IG?
IG has never had an affect on LT - while LT has stopped and even prevented the IG from working.
