Darkseid took down Ares's entire pantheon. Hell, the Olympians and Asgardians were scared of Darkseid turning his attentions towards them.And need I remind you that Captain Marvel and Black Adam's gods are KIA. And all information points to the olympian pantheon being KIA too. They may have been revived, but the fact remains that they probably fell.

Against my better judgement...one more replyOnce again...what? So if an attack can kill you which it previously wouldn't that's not a form of weakening? Good god, but then again you said one-sided prep wasn't an unfair advantage. Read Thor #11 exact same situation occured with some other gods and a mortally wounding attack.
nooooo i said ares did have an advantage. once again reading what you want into people's post then tying to attack them personally. and did i not say that it weakened his immortalty. there is just no evidence that highfather's over all power and might was weakened. to say so is to just read your own thought into what's happening. Ares didn't say that highfather was weakened enough to be killed, just that at the source he can be killed. by the way citing another book from another company where the laws of magic are different does not equate to support. it' a different story with different characters. whose powers are widely different unless anybody in marvel rely on the source for there power.
Read what happened in Thor, it's not about different powerlevels it's about gods fighting and getting killed in places that their attacks would not have done much. Just what happened to Highfather
Your right, this sentence where I thought you said Ares did not have an unfair advatage was/// "still not saying though that Ares did not have an unfair advatage" That was a mistake on my behalf, sorry about that.
so back on topic i see it like this darkseid 6 out of 10 the four times i see Ares wining would be though treachery. Darkseid would have him beat on the ground then walk away in disgust then Ares would stab him in the back. No matter how you look at it Ares' weapons can kill skyfather level beings, if you don't accept high father there is hades. So ares even without prep four times out of ten i see him getting in a good stab. The way I see it is in terms of speed = in terms of strength Darksied has the edge, in terms of fighting ability going to have to go with Ares, in terms of energy that would got to darkseid the only think that makes darksied get 6 instead of 5 in my opinion is that I like him more and would want to see him win. even though Ares outfit looks much better.

Final Crisis. Which if you had any brains, proves what the new gods fans said all along.
The new gods had never been seen at their true scale and power in the regular DCU. Only in the context of the 4th world or via boomtubed forms.
The vast entity we saw in Final Crisis was merely the true manifestation of Darkseid and his power in the regular DCU. A fallen devil god crushed the entire DCU as he fell. A dying god. The act of a dying and critically wounded Darkseid.
Nuff said.

FC was a joke in so many ways. And if your using FC darksied it's a little unfair concidering he had the ALE, and other huge charges to his powers and ablities. all ares has to do if it's FC darksied is give him a beating while one of his followers (the kind that he makes so as to not be addtional help) finds that bullet.

FC was one of the more thoughtful big events in recent years.
It had mythical proportions, more than I can say for events like Infinite Crisis, Secret Invasion et al.
Revelations, Beyond even the first 5 issues of the main FC were excellent in their build up, and showed a sense of vulnerability for the heroes that we'd never seen in a canon big event story.
Anti climatic at the end? Sure (always the case when deus ex machinas are used), but the heroes were hit hard in all areas.
