Who can one-shot Thanos?

that galactus blast is pretty meaningless. no one knows how much power he put into it. hell, quasar shielded a few blasts from him, as did sue storm. surviving a blast from galactus isn't all that impressive.

true. but were all that energy focused, things might be a lot different. odin's battle with seth shook the multiverse. his battle with odin .

While it is difficult to guage how powerful the galactus blast was we have to look at the state of mind G was in. He was pretty angry and trying to annihilate thanos. Thats pretty different from the state of mind he was in against the likes of Sue and quasar. (there he adopted a more nonchalant attitude and used one of the regular mildblasts he uses against most pests).

Also Odins battle with Seth didnt actually shake the multiverse.

I clearly stated a very clear opinion with a high level of clarity.

I said Big G level and above. That was my opinion. It was clear. Should I do what everyone else does and argue over small feats? "Who did this to whom and under what circumstances? PIS? Did Loeb write it? Was it standard version? Did they have such-and-such plot device? Did Big-G eat his veggies?" Blah blah blah. The dude in question is Thanos, so the answer is simple. No one but Galactus level and above is going to one shot Thanos. Simple question, simple answer.

Do you feel better now that I wasted a whole paragraph to restate my opinion? What a waste of time. I'll tell you what. I'll think about it, and I'll hit you with the perfect non-Galactus level dude to one-shot Thanos.

I was also laughing at Trickster's opinion.

... Darkseid.

Again, collateral damage isn't everything. He's taken blasts from abstracts and survived it before. In the same way I can't just assume that Galactus' blast or Odin's blast wasn't galaxy-destroying in power, you can't just assume that it wasn't or write that off, either.

sure you can because you can use collateral damage as a gauge. wrecking galaxies in passing and shaking the multiverse are just a little beyond those you mentioned . . . oi vey.

so, i ask you the same i asked KT--what's it take?

I would say an abstract level with very good power behind it probably would do the trick. Could a high skyfather do it? Possible but imo really not probable. With all the on panel evidence I think it clearly points to Thanos more then likely being still around.

A Ko possible but kill him... that is kinda silly to me. Not only does he have his tech shields, personal shields and proven durabilty he's a mutant eternal for God's sake. His proven record sides more with me then you my friend imo.

You can't deny on panel evidence and verbage used... Clearly odin was out for the kill and pissed. Clearly, there was some collateral damage but again are the blasts not focused? Do you think he's going for collateral damage? No they are right at thanos and by a weapon he felt he needed to pull out to further focus his po'd blasts. Thanos tanked it with no tech or personal shielding and you think it could kill him. Not likely imo and I don't even believe it would KO having to get through all that first.

Again you want to discredit the galactus encounter but as pointed out clearly the writer was giving the impression by words and art that Thanos shields are the toughest he's scene and it made him expent vital energies. There should be no doubt how strong they are after that. Galactus was also pissed having just gotten sent flying by thanos and comes back to get revenge. So, to say you don't think the blast is that tough.. again not based on his words as that points to my theory.. but what collateral damage... we've already discussed that which you conceded to. Nevermind Omega and who he is and again pissed.

Point is, imo the evidence points to it taking imo an abstract level good blast to kill thanos in one shot.

Eww now i can't drink a heineken without thinking about gapping assholes 😬

At least it isn't a man's.

For a second there I thought it was Ego the Living Planet...

Bottom line is Thanos has taken repeated blasts from the peak skyfather in Marvel, as well as multiple abstract beings. He's survived fine.

I'd probably go with Mindset's first answer....a well fed Galactus's no holds barred blast would wreck his shields and KO him. Not even sure about killing him, though.

Galactus

Regarding the "herald my rage!" blast: Annihilus did survive yes, but he was shown to considerably weakened and apparently the only reason he did survive was by use of the Q-bands. He was so weakened in fact, that once the Bands switched sides, Annihilus was quickly dispatched by Nova, after punking several heralds and killing Wendel Vaughn in earlier issues.

So yeah, Annihilus survived, but he didn't tank the blast with impunity. And he was running from the epicenter.

And enya? Reported for the resident jew stereotype. I may take pride in being jewish, but that doesn't mean you can be racist.

Infinity Wars should give a good gauge of what it takes to one-shot Thanos. An IG-wielding (sans Reality) Magus clobbered Thanos twice with physical shots and the latter was hit by a huge radial blast as well, all of which he took without much trouble. It may not have been a complete IG, but still very high end durability feats.

Thanos is not getting one-shotted by a sub-skyfather, and I say this with a large degree of certainty. Save Drax, of course.

A high-end Skyfather might be able to do it, but betting money would say otherwise.

I would say that it would take a being whose power is at least that of Atum//Demogorge (not the one who PISed his way into death by indigestion) to have good odds of consistently one-shotting Thanos. Galactus/Celestial level characters should definitely be able to do this, especially by KMC rules.

Ouallada: Totally forgot about the Magus thing. Good point.

I don't see the big thing about Jews, sure they killed Jesus but we must have done something equally bad at one point.

Kris's remark was ****ed up, but he didn't single me out. But you're right. He's getting reported too.

Ryo: .........................Oiiiii. We didn't execute him. All we did was refuse to commute his sentence, if you're willing to trust the new testament. It was the pharises who gave him over to the Romans, who executed him and considered him a threat. And killing jesus hypothetically, is just killing one person.

Not everyone ascribes to christianity and it's viewpoint on Jesus.

And anyone who is christian and preaching holier-than-thou values about why your religion is so much better: Inquisition, crusades, Nazis, the numerous wars over religion in europe, the purging of native indian tribes for not converting in America the entire concept of crucifixion, etc. Christianity's hands are far from clean.

Jews killed Black Jesus.

First of all, religion has no place on this forum. Trick, settle down. Eny, Kris, you were out of line.

If you guys can leave it as it is, it doesn't have to go any further.
