I'm a bit surprised that people would argue that he could take Monarch or DS for a majority, but not Zeus.
Beyond this, though, most people seem to agree that he stops dead at one. Given that, I'll change the OP a bit and make each battle independent (IOW, not a gauntlet).
Can Thanos take 3/10 from anyone on the list? If so, who?

Of course I'm now going to get a crapstorm of posts saying that SBP is nowhere near that level despite having altered reality via physical force on a relatively large scale and his higher end feats before Guardian amp.

He stops at Zeus. He might stalemate a DS Avatar. He won't win against Monarch. When he breaks his armor, he will die too, that would be technically a stalemate but he won't get the chance if Monarch doesn't fight "stupid".
Given his intelligence, he won't even attempt to try to take off Monarch's armor.
I know this for certain, he gets 0 wins vs. Tyrant, Monarch, Odin and Dormammu.

given his current status as death's avatar, I think the OE should fail on him regardless of how watered down DS has been. nevertheless, I agree with LoM's post about the results.
The OE had a lot of battlefield removal options, especially under Kirby. Darkseid sat in his throne room and sent an Omega for each of the Forever People, displacing them in time, and he banished the Infinity Man forever (Until the Death of the New Gods thing) I know Thanos can teleport, but this is a place even New Gods tech couldn't let him escape from.. The best they could do was switch places with him, like the Negative Zone thing between Rick Jones and Captain Marvel.

lol, a death god is not an avatar. A death god simply has a sort of contract with death. Thanos has a unique status and is death's sole true representative.Position, doesn't=power, but I have a feeling it does in this case. Of course, if Odin takes on galactus then maybe he does outclass thanos.
It also doesn't make sense that Skyfathers, of which there can be many per planet, can be galaxy busters. Seriously, no sense at all.
Anyways, being Deaths representative just means he has the potential to have any amount of power from none to Death's equal. There's no reason to assume the highest end.

Originally posted by King KandyNo offense Kandy, but you're one of the many people I've seen use this 'argument' for Thanos... And it's just horrible.
As Avatar of death Thanos's position is much higher than a mere god of earth.
Even IF we assume there is no feasible way to kill Thanos, that certainly does not mean he's immune to other forms of incapacitation- ie. a simple KO. That said, if we were to keep Zeus as a purely physical being (which he isn't), I don't see Thanos holding up any better than Hulk did against him.

Going by feats, Odin already outclasses Thanos...by a rather wide margin.

I think he can take 3 to 4 wins against Zeus but not a majority
Monarch I think is an even split (very good fight)
Against DS.. he takes a healthy majority
Odin 2 to 3 wins
Tryant - none
Dorm - None
Zeus is a high end skyfather... Thanos shouldn't be capable of taking a single win from him. His punches and his blast shouldn't be able to do a thing against Zeus. The tier is too wide...especially when it comes to skyfathers.
