I find it interesting to stack Thanos against Classic Dr. Strange. Both are virtual immortals, that rival each other in various aspects. But Strange will always have the upper hand for the assortments of trick up his sleeve, and his ability to mess with time.
Thanos has no formal counter to time manipulation.

How do you figure that ID... he's taken Surfer through time before with no effort what so ever. You have Eternal of Time.. hating Thanos.. and yet never even trying time manipulation on him... could it be because i wouldn't work on Thanos.. surely a possiblity isn't it? The facts are these... Thanos has Strange beat in virutally every area of a fight. We're aren't using a strange who can call on this relic or gets an amp to fight this Demon.. or preps to fight Thanos... This is a straight up fight... Thanos is more durable, better at h2h, more blasting and striking power, vastly superior intelligence, more will power, better at TP, better Tech.. the list goes on and on. So I'm really unclear on Strange wins.. or as you put it.. as an edge.

Show me something that contest to Strange ability to mess with time.
True story
Dr Strange has mystical telepathy that can go back in time

Thanos isn't more intelligent than Strange.. Strange can be omniscient. Thanos is a great TP, but Strange is on another level. Not to mention Strange has a winning record over skyfathers and abstracts. Strange absolutely needs no prep to call upon a relic or gain near infinite power from skyfather to abstract level beings. Will power? haha. In all the universe, the AO says Strange has the most will. In order to have greater stores of ambient energy, Strange creates pocket dimensions within each cell of his body through will power. Thanos isn't older or more experienced. Other than being over 5 thou years old, he has all the memories and experiences from all the prior SSs. Which is like millions of years of xp. Thanos's blasts aren't stronger either. I.ve seen Strange one shot planets and heralds. H2h? Does it matter? Still, Strange is good. H2h mantis and b panther at once. Wolverine. Hell Thor said he, along with the entire Avengers full well knew they couldn't handle Strange's power.
Originally posted by KuRuPT ThanosiYou don't know shit. none of the feats i was referring to took prep. He doesn't need prep to amp. Did the domination of inbetweener take prep? When he mind ****ed galactus, did that take prep?
All with Prep and an amp. Come on Long Pig.. you and i both know Strange RARELY EVER beats any of these guys without prep and a amp. He's always getting an amp. The sotry makes it clear this big bad demon outclasses Strange with ease.. yet strange will be granted some power or mind some relic and in the end (because he's in the hero) save the day. You know this, and I know this.
Originally posted by long pigIn the same stories with both characters Thanos has been shown to be vastly superior to Strange aka Thor with power gem. That's a direct comparison to a threat under the same writer in the same story.
Not to mention his unequaled time manipulation. His matter molecular manip is greater than thanos' as well. Strange ranges from superior to vastl superior to everything except benchpressing. Thanos can't win.

Stop reading when you said Strange is more intelligent than Thanos... This tells me you're an absolute clown and have some homoerotic obsession with strange. No need to discuss anything further if you think Strange is even in the same league as thanos, let alone above.
Let's say Thanos' iq is two billion. It's not, but let's say. Strange, with the eye has multiversal omniscience. He is as intelligent as Aggamotto who is more intelligent than just about anyone. If Thanos' iq is less than Agg's, it's less than Strange's. So, thanos > agg's? I dare you to say yes. I know you won't. I know yo'll veer off into insults. Now, i'll give you a way out of looking stupid and save face. I hope you take it. Is it possible you thought I meant normal human Strange's intelligence? Was that the case?
Originally posted by quanchi112Yes, vastly superior strength and durability. That's it. That's all he's got that's superior. Strange full power could have stuck Thor in a time bubble and that'd be that. BFR him into his own dimension and destroy the dimension. Strange is as omnipotent in his pocket dimensions as adam warlock is in his. I.e GOD.
