Great Darkness Saga Darkseid Vs Thanos

Just going by those fights do you honestly believe Orion could take Thanos in a H2H battle the way he's taken Seid?

If he's empowered by the Source like the two of the times he beat Seid? Yes.

In countdown after DOTNG having been spared by the source to kill his father and on another occasion when DS goads him into killing him while fighting beyond the source wall. Orion had to draw power from his very spirit to contend with DS.

Another fight DS under code of honor fought Orion in a contest of their martial art prowess and lost ultimately but the circumstances weren't normal.

EDIT: And let's not act like Orion is some punk. He is the god of war across multiple realities.

Lost faith in image shack. So what's happening in those fights? Is Thanos engaged in a brutal brawl?

Yo.

correction: the TT that DS absorbed power from during the GDS was found out to have been a Controller.

to date, DS has never encountered the real TT.

Like I said infinite power means nothing unless they did something with it offence or defence wise.

Thanos had her reeling with an eye blast...

He was definitely more powerful than her, and Skreet only attacked once, and got knocked back, and then Thanos put her in his pouch.

She knocked him out with that omni-directional blast in the start though.

Yeah. But he was caught off-guard by it.

And Thanos proved that when he was ready, he was more than enough to overpower her attacks.

What does Odin have to do with Thanos? He isn't at his level. And I've already stated that IMO DS has enough pop to take Odin. He's taken on and defeated similar characters.

Odin fought Thanos and proved he was on his level. Thanos has been upgraded since that affair.

Thanos is always throwing up his shields and his flesh seems more susceptible to sharp point damage.

EDIT: Can you point out an instance where Thanos has been in a real, drawn out no holds barred brawl? He's never been in those so I can't say. The closest was the Odin fight and that wasn't really a drag out brawl.

Even with PG Thor he only took a couple of hits and then Thor stopped throwing punches giving Thanos time to recoup.

Thanos fought a more powerful version of himself in the infinity war. Thanos took Thor head on. He took on a guy who was treating the Silver Surfer,Dr. Strange,and the Watch like punks.

He didnt put up one shield against Odin.

Yes I already mentioned the Odin fight and I mentioned that DS doesn't trade energy blasts with people whether they are top tiers or skyfathers he usually disposes of them with efficient one time attacks.

Can you think of a battle DS had where he was trading energy blasts like Odin?

Remember also that my stance was based on brutal give and take battles. The fight with Odin wasn't brutal enough for me, especially if Odin is trying to destroy Thanos. Good durability feat for Thanos if not great but all in all a not so great feat for Odin.

Without artifacts?

PG Thor landed a couple of hits before he stopped attacking Thanos so i don't really see that as an example of uber durability.

Yo.

And that controller still had lots of power,

no question, but theres a clear line of distinction between that imposter and the TRUE TT.

PC darkseid has been compared to not only the infinite mans power(someone like timetrapper)but timetrappers own bio puts them in the same general league.

maybe in THAT story he had, however most of DS's depictions up to then havent really given or shown us that IIRC.

Ive said it b4 & I'll do so again: GDS-DS was likely his single BIGGEST and best depiction up to that point; I dont think anything beforehand ever lent any hint towards him being that powerful, and CERTAINLY not as powerful as the TT.

He trades blasts with Superman before at the end of OWAW.

Odin was out for the kill and didnt get the job done. Considering his power level I think its safe to say Thanos wins.

He didnt have an artifact. 🙂

They had a brutal battle and Thanos was smiling at the end of the day. No one else in that story could take him on by his or herself.

This is true and its a shame a lot of writers don't even understand the Omega Effect and even when they have him fighting heralds they rarely make the fights as brutal or as interesting as his duels with Orion. It's funny because the DCAU fights made far more sense and were alot more brutal and interesting.
