Ok, let's break this down meticulously cause I believe it's being warped around.
+++++++++++++++
Thanos and Odin hit each other directly 3 times.
We'll place them side by side and see if there's this
'Odin dominated the fight' or 'Odin beat Thanos down' rumors ...

That's it.
Now, after all that, let's look at both fighters' condition (at-least visually)
and see where their confidence lies so far in the battle,
cause I think that says a lot imo.
It seems like both Odin and Thanos are equally confident in themselves as would be victor ...
... but then the Trident comes out. 🙁

That's a good analyses, putting the scans side by side to compare. Based on this I think it's pretty clear Thanos held his own pretty well against Odin initially before he pulled out his trident. It must've taken a lot of patience to put that together, but I feel your efforts may be in vain, because it's likely Silent Master will completely ignore your points.

No, putting them side by side shows that Odin attacks had far more effect than Thanos' attacks.
As I understood it, gungrir doesn't amp Odin, but rather allows him to channel his energy more efficiently. Also, thanos was on his knees smoking, and trembling with shaky dialogue by the end of the fight iirc.
I'm not trying to say he didn't do well, because he did. Odin's first blast at thanos was probably intended for a herald leveler imo, and hit thanos with no effect, but apparently oneshotted drax and surfer. I think that this scene was meant to show thanos' superiority to high heralds/ top-tiers, not an equal footing with Odin. With this said, I think that it was an amazing showing for thanos, as he not only survived, but was almost able to stand by the end of the fight. He has freakish durability, but had the fight continued, I couldn't really see him walking away as he did when odin decided to stop. I admire thanos' perseverance, but I don't see the outcome being any different with Zeus imo.

I think Thanos has the durability to hang with skyfathers in a prolonged fight, like he did with Odin. But he lacks the offensive power to hurt them before they seriously hurt him. Against Zeus his durability will keep him in the fight for a while, but Zeus will KO him before he can do enough damage to Zeus eventually. It's by no means a stomp in Zeus' favour though.

Agreed. But I reckon Zeus is less merciful. Rather than offer Thanos the chance to yield, the big Z won't stop until the Titan is KTFO.

Gungnir doesn't amp Odin's blasts. It serves only to channel his power, that's been established pretty firmly. And it's less effective than his Scepter at that which is a substitute for him entering his fully powered form.Maybe Starlin is simply that ignorant though.
U wouldnt say it makes his blasts more potent? You can call it channeling or whatever u like... But it serves a purpose, and that purpose could only be... its harder on the enemy or else why bring it out at all if it does nothing and feels the same to the enemy? Furthermore, not that Odin was going all out... but would u say he was raising the stakes progressively as the fight went on?

substantial
*edit*
I should throw this one in too,
since it's also after Odin hit Thanos the 3 times:
Imo, in both scans Thanos looks ok, and confident he can win.
btw. I'm not saying Thanos would win either way,
I'm just scrutinizing this particular part of this battle, without the Trident.
