Galactus was about to finish off Ego, Thor hits him, Galactus throws him away... thinking he's gone. Ego saves Thor, Thor shoots Godblast at Galactus without Galactus knowing. Counts as a cheapshot.
Also, we've seen how cheapshots can make someone look better than they are... plus, it was Thor's most powerful attack...

Hell, even the minor Mjolnir throw in the beginning was enough to cause Galactus pain which apparently he hadn't felt in a thousand years. Lulz.
And Thor's blast was head on right towards him. Even if it was a 'cheapshot,' the only way it would have hurt (and even almost kill) him is if they were close to/comparable in power. If a gnat "cheapshotted" me, I certainly wouldn't feel it, much less die because of it. Get it?
You're not exactly helping Galactus' rep in this instance here.

Just because it might have been head on (it actually looks like he hit from the side), doesn't mean he was prepared for it. He wasn't ready for it. He gave Thor time to fire it, and he didn't even know Thor was alive.
I never said Thor was a gnat to him in that scene, I'm just giving context. And cheapshots usually make someone look a lot more powerful. Marvel one-punching Superman (Superman saw him right before it though... 🙄 ), U.S.Agent taking out Wolverine, Doom hurting Mephisto in his own realm, etc.
Plus, even if Thor was a gnat to him, he fired his most powerful attack at him. And Thor has cracked Celestial armor with less...
I'm not trying to, as this isn't about Galactus... it's about Ego.
Plus, since I'm supposed to help Galactus's rep apparently... Galactus was weakened before he started to fight Ego (because before the battle he said he was starved and then Ego came out of nowhere), and he also took some shots, and delivered some, which should have withered him down farther. Then Thor came along right before Galactus was about to kill Ego.

Something tells me Thor's 9 lines of dialogue before throwing the hammer gave Galactus time to prepare for it. The strike caused him pain.
And I didn't say he was prepared for the godblast. Cheap shot or no cheap shot, Thor gave him a continual onslaught of energy that Galactus could have adapted to/stopped. Instead, he fled literally for his life because he feared he was about to die.
The only difference between your examples and this one is the fact that those characters are closer in power than Thor is to Galactus.
And the fact that Thor has cracked Celestial armor with a simple Mjolnir strike tells me that Celestial armor isn't as durable as most would think.
I'm actually glad you brought up the "Galactus being weakened" argument here. It only furthers my initial point about Ego not winning this fight 10/10. Nod seems to be under the impression that Ego = Galactus in power. As you said, a weakened Galactus almost killed Ego before Thor intervened. And I'm pretty sure that Thor bested Ego by manipulating the weather and blasting it at him or some bullshit like that. So yeah, Ego doesn't win this one 10/10. 🙂

Adapted to? It said he was getting hurled helplessly back right on the page to its effects.
At least if it wasn't a cheapshot, he could have prepared for it. Set up a shield, blasted it, moved, etc.
Although it's weird how that one looked different than the other two he has fired... and worked differently by draining energy, and causing damage.
And the Godblast could possibly even that up... apparently anyway...
Simple Mjolnir? Thor was going full out with energy hammer attacks... however, maybe, maybe not. However, their healing factors more than make up for that.
Being = to a weak Galactus is still pretty impressive... but alas, I don't care enough for Ego... and if you're arguing that Ego doesn't win 10/10, but saying he wins; well, that seems stubborn to say the least. 😬

Galactus had fair warning of the attack that was ensuing. Thor was standing right in front of him when he threw the hammer. Galactus saying he was struck by another isn't necessarily him saying that he was surprised by the attack. But I digress as I don't want to get hung up on this minute detail. Point is Galactus was hurt because of a Mjolnir toss.
Yes, adapted to as in absorbed, shunted the energy, blocked it, etc. Galactus was caught helpless. At least from the initial warning of it when he was hit, he could have reacted. In other words, it wasn't exactly 'cheap' once he knew he was being attacked. Instead, Thor kept pouring it on while Galactus couldn't do anything about it. You're looking too far into this whole cheap shotting business. The blast rendered Big G helpless and all he could do was flee for his life.
Him saying his strength was drained in that instance doesn't automatically mean that Thor was literally sapping away his strength. It could just mean that the blast itself was so strong that it started to make Galactus weaker. I mean he was knocked back into his ship, was he not?
"Simple" Mjolnir strike as in it was nothing exotic like a god blast.
It's funny, people act as if Ego's showing against Galactus is his only feat. He's had many instances other than that, and they aren't that flattering. Nothing really to suggest he would take 10/10 over Superman, mind you.
I said Ego "might" take a majority over Superman. I can see Superman winning too. And I didn't argue about Ego not winning 10/10 here. I only started to argue in this thread about the Galactus/Thor instance when you decided to chime in.
Besides, I, just like you, like to debate just for the fun of it.
