And Thanos has strength, blasts from ervrywhere, shields, durability, telekinesis, telepathy, good reflexes, levitation, and the ability to incorporate tech into his own power. OMG POWERS!

Not implying you're not trolling, just answering your post as if it's written by someone reputable.

This doesn't give an excuse due to his lack of speed. If Thanos was a speedster then he would legitimately beat Superman, Surfer, etc.

Surfer, Thor, etc. can do almost everything you just named.

With the lack of speed Thanos has no business beating Surfer or the likes.

So even though all of their appearances show thanos as vastly superior to surfer, you are going to argue off of powersets and not feats, and say that surfer is somehow, in some way, superior to thanos?

So why would you name any other powers for Superman when you obviously only care about speed? Oh ya, it suits your argument.

The speed argument is so retarded coming from a legit poster. When someone has the reflexes to deal with it, and the shields/durability to block out it when he needs to, then it's obviously not as big as advantage as you think.

lol Thanos doesn't fight at lightspeed, what a loser! All his feats don't count! Ha, I foiled you good because I'm smart.

Speed is the most important attribute. That is why flash could own many characters with a vast array of powers.

Reflexes alone are not enough, speed is required. For example, let's say you can see bullets in slow motion but still retained your human speed. If someone shot a bullet at you from 5 feet away, you will see the bullet coming at you in slow motion but fail to be able to move out of the way. You are slowing watching the end of your life for you are a sitting duck.

If Superman is more than 10x faster than Thanos in movement speed then for every 5 ft Superman moves Thanos would only manage to move less than half a foot. So if Superman and Thanos were standing 5ft away, mano a mano, and Superman decided to throw a punch, then Thanos wouldn't be able to get his hand up to block or create a shield or anything. He will get hit everytime without defense. Even if Superman allows Thanos to get his shields up in the beginning, then Thanos can't attack. He can only stay under his shields and hide. The moment he releases his shields makes him a dead duck.

True, that's why Flash could own Galactus...

Do you even know what the word 'reflexes' mean?

*Insert scan of Fallen One running into a quickly made shield in a no nonsense fight that started with a Fallen One cheapshot to Thanos's ship*
OMG FALLEN ONE RAN AT THANOS LIKE AN IDIOT!!!
Fastest way to a target is in a straight line, and Fallen One started the attack like every other one of his attacks when he traveled a dickload of a distance away in seconds.

Also, except when Thanos can attack...

I don't even know why I'm responding to your usual shit. I don't know, must amuse me.

Feats alone don't determine the superior. It's rock, paper, scissors in many cases.

Also, it is how the feats were done and not that they were done.
A character owning Flash when Flash is not using his speed is a NON feat.
Thanos punching Surfer like that when Surfer fought like a dummy and didn't use his FTL reflexes is a NON feat.

Note: A NON feat is one which can't be used to prove that the feat WILL HAPPEN if the character's actually existed due to writer's PIS.

Except surfer NEVER uses FTL in a fight.

So I guess all fights with surfer is as NON fight.

Superman beating people when he could just get BFR'ed to another dimension is a non feat?

I didn't claim that with speed one can beat anyone. I claimed it was the single most important attribute (all other things being equal).

Fallen started the blitz from at most 3 meters away from Thanos. That means he didn't even achieve anywhere close to lightspeed.

Thanos, in his entire comic history, has never been shown to attack while his shields were up. Maybe because his attacks would be blocked by his own shield? If you disagree then please feel free to prove me wrong because I've seen just about every appearance of Thanos.

Not really since Superman still has speed to prevent this. But in most circumstances, yes it would be a non feat for Superman. So I agree with you for the most part.

Surfer has used FTL reflexes in many fights. Even I know that and I'm not a big Surfer fan.

You might as well have. All you argue about is speed being better than everyone. Why can the fastest person in comics not beat just a powerful being?

I forgot Fallen One's speed was 12 miles an hour in the first 3 metres and then after that he gets to a speed able to travel light years in the time it takes to finish a sentence. Do you know how stupid this sounds? Instead of the guy taking off at a speed able to make stars blur and the same way he always does (in fact, everytime he's taken off similarily he's been a dot at the end of his takeoff in the same panel), he just starts off really slow and gains speed able to traverse really far distances in an extremely short time. In fact, 99% of his travel time is spent taking off.

The same page that he stopped Fallen One's blitz.... that didn't take too much work on your part did it? All you had to look at was the only Thanos appearance you've ever seen.

But it doesn't matter, if you think Thanos is just going to cower behind a shield than you're... well, you're H1. Let's go with what you said, he builds up an omniblast, fires it, track Superman's movements, spam blasts, etc.

Actually, no. Masterson threw his hammer at thanos and knocked him back a few hundred feet.
which was orchestrated by thanos

At least the forum is starting to see how silly feat skewing is. I've been saying that for a long, long time.

For the record, Pip also said Thor would give Thanos a run for his money any normal day. Of course, I'm sure you'll ignore that part.
cause we all know pip is a master of deduction
