Lex Luthor with some lead and krytonite can beat Superman but that doesn't mean that he is more powerful. Superman beats Odin due to him being faster and Odin having less durability than Thor himself.I don't think I have Warlock Chronicles 08. I have to look thru my collection again. But I have many (if not all) of the Blood and Thunder series. Especially the one where Thor was fighting Thanos. So if you be so kind and put a scan up for me showing this.
Not only attack b4 they can respond but land a blow before they can respond. If this happens, along with that blow having any stun value, then yes it is an automatic win.
No! You don't understand what I mean when I said the reaction time will drop after the first hit. So let me put it another way. A stun hit causes one's response frame to reset back to 0 because the opponent is stunned (no matter how brief). Now if the attack doesn't reset the response frame back to 0 then the attack failed to stun (any amount). For the definition of being stunned is to have your response frame reset. Now since the attacker was fast enough to initiate the first landed blow before the [B]non-stunned
opponent could respond then clearly the attacker can land another blow. This is because there is added time to initiated the second blow-the time it takes for the opponent to come out of the stun plus the time to launch an attack before the non-stunned opponent can respond. Thus time needed to sucessfully land the second attack< the time it takes to land the first.I understand what you mean by the attacker needed to reload, forcing more time to launch the second attack than the first. So if the stun is small then it is possible for the opponent to break free of the stun (while the attacker is still going foward with the strike and or reloading) and have that extra head start to try to combat the second attack. But this is defeated by an attacker pulling their attack hand back while simultaneously launching another attack with the other hand (assuming the opponent doesn't break free of the stun while the attacker's hand is still going forward through them). But this is moot since WW is sufficiently strong enough to to stun Thanos long enough to launch a second attack without having to resort to that tactic.
No! A criterion (not definition) for doing a speedblitz is hitting a character b4 they can respond. You must add on hits after the first to fully become a speedblitz (according to your definition). But this is moot due to a character winning after the first hit (whether you call it a speedblitz or not).
WW's first hit is capable of seriously staggering Thanos with one blow. She is capable of lifting the weight of the entire Earth or more. D.C. >>>> Marvel by feats on average. D.C.s top average range is like 1 billion to 1x10^22 tons vs. Marvel's 100 to 100,000 tons (I'm estimating the average range of course). Also WW can have the tiara in hand to one-hit decapitate Thanos (she doesn't need to punch combo him with her bare hands). [/B]
I really have nothing to say 2 u regarding ur plainly daft Odin vs supes argument so i will just ignore it.
Also Warlock chronicles 08 is the comic immediately after the thor thanos fight. Where all the heroes are gathered in thanos spaceship. If i have time i might scan the page. But since u say u have all of blood and thunder then u shud be able to get it and read thanos statement which is totally clear and unambiguous.
Now ur logic is heavily flawed and is not applicable practically. How can u say that landing a blow that stuns ur opponent b4 they can respond is an automatic win? It seems u have not witnessed many fights cuz if u had u wud know that this is not true. U r basically saying that if i hit u with my first attack and ur hurt, and if i continue trying to attack u then u have no possible way of winning the fight because u wont be able to respond to my attacks. Have u never seen people who are getting rushed still manage to avoid or block some( not all) of the punches from the opponent trying to rush them? U r completely discounting variables such as skill and agility etc. And for u to evn aply this logic which is largely faulty evn in real world fights, to fights in comics which have so many aspects to them and involve way more than just physical attributes and prowess is completely unbelievable 😱.
Ok now to the next part. There is a difference btween stunning someone heavily, to a point that the person is completely dazed and only lightly stunning a person. Evn u acknowledge that. Now like i said, even if a person can land a first attack it will take more time to reload and land a second attack. If the attack does not stun the person to heavily then the persons reaction times can and will revert back to normal quickly and the person will have time to react to the second blow bcuz of the time it will take the attacking person to reload and initiate the second blow plus the time it takes the blow to actually connect. How else do u think people avoid or block blows when they are being rushed?
Also if a person tries to land hits one after the other with both hands as u hve suggested( trying to move both hands forward and backward simultaneously), the speed and power of the subsequent hits will not be the same as that of the first hit and certainly wont have the same effect. That is really not an effective tactic. Wonderwoman howver is certainly not going to be dazing thanos with her first hit. For wondy to hurt thanos, will take multiple high quality hits.
To ur next part, It seems u now understand that a the belief that saying a person who simply hits once b4 they can react is a speedblitz is wrong. I have explained above that ur theory of a character winning after the first hit is completely false and does not apply to even real world fights. Howver it is totally absurd to use it in comic world fights were characters have other ways of fighting aside physical means, such as mental attacks,forcefields, instant encasement etc.
To ur next part, It seems u now understand that the belief that saying a person who simply hits once b4 they can react is a speedblitz is not in line with how the term speedblitz is normally used. I have also explained above that ur theory of a character winning after the first hit is wrong even in real world fights and is comletely out of place in comic fights.
Wonderwoman cannot heavily stagger thanos with one blow, For wonderwoman to KO thanos at all will take a huge amount of time. Thanos was able to take numerous attacks from mjolnir from a WM thor using the power gem. How u believe DC and Marvel compare to each other strength wise, is irrelevant because it is a known fact that Wonderwoman and thor are peers in the strength department( by feats), and WM thor with the Pg is multiple times WW strength. The fact that he was using mjolnir only serves to increase the strength of the hits thanos was taking. Never in their fight was he dazed or greatly staggered. He certainly wont be greatly staggered by a single wonderwoman punch. Also wonderwomans tiara will not be beheading thanos and can easily be countered by thanos.
Really ur entire arguement is based on some of the most ridiculous assumptions and fallacies ive ever heard. For ur arguement to have any credibility,
1. Thanos wud have to be a " pillow man" as u put it with savage hulk level durability
2. Wonderwoman wud have to be millions of times stronger than WM thor with the PG
3.Wonderwoman wud need to have the ability to land numerous hits on thanos b4 he can react( something which u have not proven)
Thanos wud also need to forget a whole host of his powers for thor and wondy to defeat him. Really im getting tired of this, so if u actually think that Wonderwoman is millions of times stronger than thor, and that thanos has hulk level durability and is a " pillow man", and that anyone who lands the first hit in a fight wins, then good luck to u. There is no need in continuing this discussion as most reasonable posters already know that wonderwoman alone cant beat thanos and that this team loses as well.
