Why are people talking about Gamora's speed like Orion is some slow brick. Orion is faster than Gamora, Gamora's speed is not a factor in this fight. Orion 10/10 He could one shot her he's a lot stronger (this goes without saying), he also way more powerful with the astro force. Way more durable.
They don't call him the "Dog of War" for nothing, his strength lies in wading into the heart of battle. His aggressive emotions give him even greater stamina and resiliance. If Gamora faced Orion her best bet would be to try and escape, because she'd get messed up without any doubt. I like these two as characters, but there's no contest here, Orion would tear through her.

Who has Orion speedblitzed?It's a simple question really.
He's speedblitzed Darkseid, a troop of Dog Soldiers, an army of bugs, a group of humans and I would say 'skill blitzed' Valkryie, who is basically the equivalent of Gamora (Martial Arts master of New Genesis).
The difference, by the way, between Darkseid and Thanos is that Darkseid has actually SHOWN speed and skill -- in the Orion battle especially. Thanos was ridiculously slow and unskilled.
What skilled opponent has Gamora really 'speed blitzed'?
This whole nonsense about Orion being faster then Gamora is a joke to say the least. She clearly has the h2h skill advantage and even the speed advantage. Even if it's not a huge gap she's still slightly superior. I think Orion wins the majority here but lets not act like it's Orion in a stomp when she clearly has some advantages plus the godslayer which with her combat speed I'm sure could dodge some orion punches and hit him with it.
Orion 8/10
Wait, so he has access to the Astro Force as well?
Orion 10/10, seriously.
I thought this was a hand to hand battle. The best 'speed blitzes' you can come up with for Gamora just barely match what we've seen from Orion. They are all against foes that have zero super speed on their own. She isn't half as strong as him, isn't half as durable as he is.
Ronan took her down, along with her furies, Orion should be able to do the same even easier.

Astro knows what he's talking about.
