He had no power left. Without him fighting a magical being and being in a place full of magic, he'd have been f*cked. His own power couldn't get the job done. Simple as that.

He's a ghost....
She's a multiversal-level abstract with power over death itself. In her own realm.
No. Just no.
Heh...
Forgive me for being a contrarian, but I actually think Thanos could score a couple wins against Mordru based on the fact he's a high end matter manipulator and Mordru has a very acute form of claustrophobia that causes him to shut down and go comatose when he's trapped. Trap Mordru in a block of steel and you beat him, regardless of the fact that Mordru's power dwarfs Thanos's immensely.
Fighting smart pays off.

Except thanos has no knowledge of mordrus weaknesses.
Basic Knowledge
Each side receives basic knowledge of the other. A good measure of this would be what the general population of the character's homeworld knows. For example, that Superman has a weakness to Kryptonite is general knowledge, but that he's Clark Kent is not.
It doesn't need to be basic knowledge. Thanos is very observant and a tactical genius. Once he sees the effect being entrapped has on Mordru he's going to use it to his advantage going forward. Thanos just has to entrap Mordru and let his own psychosis do the rest. He'd be stupid to try to go blast for blast with someone of Mordru's level, and Thanos isn't stupid.

Except Mordru is a high end skyfather while Thanos is high trans...there is no concievable way that Thanos can win.

And Mordru's weakness is NOT common knowledge. Only the LSH is aware of it and it only applies to his 30th century incarnation, and even then it was quite difficult to subdue him. I dare anyone to put Thanos against the Legion and see if he does any better.
Also, Mordru is nigh-abstract, given the people he's mowed down and the level of his powers.

Yeah, but Thanos got his ass kicked by Odin.
Game over. Thanos 10/10.
Funny how up in arms people are getting over a simple, logical point. I'm not saying Thanos is more powerful than Mordru by any means, I'm simply saying Thanos has an avenue of attack to exploit, and the power to do so, against a superior opponent.
If people would take a moment, step back, and think about what I'm saying, it makes perfect sense.

Also, Odin's broken out of Thanos' force block. It isn't holding Mordru.
Odin doesn't have a psychosis that renders him inert when he's entrapped.
Mordru does.
It's not the force field itself that is working against Mordru, it's his own mind, and it's been exploited time and time again in his appearances. I'm sorry people don't like it, but it's canon fact of Mordru's character.

Okay, what don't you agree with in the post you quoted? The whole "Thanos with prep might be able to beat Spectre" argument is speculative, but the scans from DOV are pretty clear cut that Shazam beats Spectre initially. So if that's what you've got a problem with...why?
Because in that story Captain Marvel was amp to full magical power. Average Captain Marvel have slimmer chances. As someone said earlier....how do you kill a ghost?
