Well I doubt its happened before 😂
But force fields buddy the lasso can't touch the opponent if he has fields.

Your post is a joke. Thanos is stronger then all of them, but Lasoo wins it
Wins what exactly? She lasso's his forcefield? Is this before or after she is one shotted? What happens if he teleports out of the lasso? What makes you think it will work on Thanos when it has been resisted before?

The Queen on Fables easily resisted the lasso. Genocide pulled it and made WW lose he balance, etc. 😬The lasso ain't doing shit to Thanos.
The context of both those situations is obviously lost on you...
Metaphysically, Genocide *is* Wonder Woman, in case you weren't aware of that; that's why she could wield the lasso, and has had lingering influence on it ever since. Part of her *is* a part of Diana.
As mentioned before, certain writers utilize various levels of PIS when deciding what is the "metaphysical truth" of a situation, and how the lasso will respond to it, as it has bound and overcome gods as well as been thwarted by mortal men; it's called Writing a Story and providing a Plot. The Queen of Fables is an extremely powerful sorceress, and in the context of that story had changed the "truth" of the setting, thereby making things problematic for Diana. And both characters were written by Gail Simone, hence why they circumstantially have that particular style of feat in common. And while I am not a Gail Simone fan (I can take her or leave her), I am confident that she would consider your siting those instances as taking things out of context...

Pretty much. 👆

Wow.You *totally* missed the underlying points I put forth, with comparative instances between similar characters/situations, simply because reading a thought-out paragraph was too much for you... Using Darkseid/Ares situations to compare to Thanos' own history -- I am not saying that is the definitive situation, by any means. It was an *example*, dude...
And yes, I am very much aware of who Thanos is as a character -- I was just using the above instances to illustrate how the ladies might make a win or two of the situation. What part of my saying Thanos would win like 8/10 didn't you get?
And I don't make any apologies for my posts -- plenty of people around here have posted much longer on other topics, and not made nearly as much sense as I have. I at no point said the ladies would take any major wins -- merely demonstrated how they *plausably* could (and you not seeing how that is possible shows how *you* don't know enough about the characters involved). In a number of my other posts, I say "X" will win a majority, but then go on to show how the lesser side might eke out wins, both to be balanced, and to better illustrate how the situation could play out. Don't have to do that for Thanos' side, 'cus he'll just Batkick the hell out of them for an easy majority - no explanation on that needed...

I know as you have explained to me before, but all im saying is that it isn't "impossible" to resist it.

And I have never said it was impossible; alot of WW fanbois/grlz assume that the lasso is an insta-win against the likes of Thanos, or Thor, or Aunt May armed with salad tongs, or other similarly powerful beings. It *can* make for the win, but that doesn't mean that it always *will*. *You* were the one who was dismissive, not me. And you were the one who took two examples out of context to create a low-ball bias against the lasso working -- the examples I gave in my post further up both demonstrates how the lasso might work to subdue Thanos, as well as how it might *not*, and I made sure my examples were more in sync with the situation presented...

Not trying to sound like a d!ck, so if what I posted above comes across that way, please ignore that perception and assume I am just standing firm on my position.

Your statement above would be cute, except that your previous response made it clear that you are very much down-grading the (as stated slim) chances the ladies would have; therefore, that makes your response seem at least mildly sardonic. And as I stated, your response made it clear that you didn't read what I had posted, and afterwards did not take the context of my response into consideration, nor the valid cross-examples given.
If I was trying to be cute you'd know.
I think they have less of a chance of winning than you do. Is there a problem with that?
😬
Now are you trying to be cute? I clearly did read your response.
In your opinion the girls might win because of some off hand chance that Thanos will see the truth, and break down because he'd realize despite the fact he strives for Universal control he cannot achieve or something similar. shocklaugh
And I pointed out, that 1) Thanos has achieved Universal control and probably could again, 2) Universal control is not his goal. At least last time I checked and 3) The lasso working is not a sure thing since it has been resisted before and it requires physical contact as far as I know.

Thanos' classic goal was to kill existence. But he did have moments of desiring omnipotence and, in all fairness, he only achieves it when the powers that be allow it. TOAA knew the experience with THOTU would change his perspective and make him first abandon his obssession with destroying the universe and then do the right thing for the common good of reality, ultimately giving up the power. So his general point about an epiphany catalized by the lasso is valid, even if not for the reasons he posted. He did abandon his original nihilism and became more interested in shaking things up then in either controlling or destroying them.
Still they have no chance in hell because the lasso requires physical contact and they wont break through the shields in time.

I'm talking about the Infinity Gauntlet. That was pretty much all Thanos as he was the one who went on a quest to defeat the Elders and gain their gems as I recall.
Thanos the End, was basically the TOAA manipulating him into gaining the ultimate power and solving the problem in the Universe, but he still had to do the hard work himself did he not?

He did do the hard work both times, but after the TOAA was revealed we can all assume that nothing happens without his permission, so the IG drama also happened because he allowed it. Thanos can become omnipotent, provided it suits cosmic consonance. He probably understands this by now.
