She beats most

So apparently nobody here knows anything about Star Wars huh? Not to comment on your knowledge of lightsabers or anything, but for someone untrained in it's use a lightsaber is just as likely to cut them as their opponent. Since the blade of a lightsaber has no weight, and the plasma itself creates a very strong gyroscopic effect only those with great strength and dexterity, and almost always a good amount of attunement to the force, can use a lightsaber effectively in combat. Even without the force, it generally takes much practice to even become remotely efficient with a lightsaber blade.

Secondly there a number of materials that are either resistent to lightsaber blades, or extremely durable against them. (Cortosis, Mandalorion Iron, and Phrik are just a few of them.) Also the speed with which a lightsaber blade cuts through an object greatly depends on it's density, thickness, and durability as shown in "The Phantom Menace" when it takes a great deal of time to cut through the blast doors. Those blast doors are significanly less durable than a number of the characters she is facing here so there is no way she will be hacking and slashing limbs off most of these characters.

Honestly a lightsaber probably doesn't change any of the outcomes here.

Also this list is hilariously wonky.

Elaborate which one?

As for the first a lightsaber won't be enough of a boost to give her the win against the guys on this list who are going to beat her normally.

As for the second having Deathstroke lower than Batman and Odin lower than Captain Marvel and Juggernaut are the most glaring problems with the ordering of the list though there are many others.

Stops at Hercules in a stalemate, and simalarly stalemates with everyone until she hits Thanos, and loses to the rest.

^ I don't think it's realistic to say that Gamora would be so clumsy as to hurt herself with the lightsaber. She's a highly trained warrior after all and has superhuman agility. But I agree that it's not powerful enough to matter against the foes who will beat her under normal conditions.

I'm not saying she would be clumsy with it, but for her to pick it up and wield it perfectly isn't going to happen either, its ve4ry different than any weapon she's ever used before. Nonetheless in the time it takes her to cut through Superman he would one hit her for the win, we agree on this.

Idk about that. Energy swords are pretty common in comics and I'd be surprised if she hasn't used one in her entire history.

The reason why Odin was lower is because he starts very close to her. The others start at a good distance from her. This makes CM far harder to beat than Odin. Do u agree?

I agree to an extent. The lightsabers cut through the blast doors like butter. The problem was getting the door to melt a big enough hole to get through. This is where it took some time. But they stabbed through it like nothing. Lightsabers in other Starwars films and comics have cut through durable metal like it wasn't there. Low feats and high feats even happen with lightsabers.

I believe with her super human strength, she can cut through most beings here easily. The exceptions would maybe be Superman, CM, and Juggernaut. The blob is an unknown to me so I can't really say.
