how big of a threat to the avengers is thanos without IG

I was going by on panel statements and I never said that he was at abstract tanking level in durability. It was already assumed that thanos lowered his durability from abstract tanking to his natural durability, claiming anything other would be retarded. My point was that he fought heroes not using IG, your point was that he could've killed them anytime using IG. Two completely different scenarios.

This...

Thanos was not fighting under his own power. Hell, Thanos shrunk both Hulk and Drax...something that he CAN'T do under his own power. It's pretty clear cut that he was still using the gem to amp himself.

Carter.. don't go moron mode on me... Do you believe a Masterson Thor hammer shot is more powerful than a blast from an abstract?

So then you believe MT hammer shot is more powerful than a blast from eternity or other abstracts?

But if you insist: that's comics for you. I think you are really overanalyzing it, not a good idea when debating cosmic battles.

No one said he used it in its entirety but he did use it. Him cutting off his senses doesn't mean he stopped using the gems...why would he even do that. I don't care how powerful you think Thanos is, he isn't withstanding a pounding from both Drax and Hulk with him getting up smiling.

Show proof that he did NOT use the gems.

It took a few years, but I'm glad you are slowly starting to realize everything he did when wearing the IG, was not under his own power.

So where's the impressive bit ? Aunt May with the IG could beat Galactus without breaking a sweat.

Aunt May wouldn't depower himself while Thanos clearly did. That's what made it impressive since he still wasn't drawn in by the Surfer's billion times the speed of light speed burst which Thanos dodged under his own reflexes.

Masterson hammer shot did nothing to Thanos but pick him up off of his ft. It was a surprise attack that had a plot twist as well. If Masterson actually "dropped" Thanos with that hammer shot, I would have probably agreed with you but he was still at 100% after it. The only thing it did was bfr Thanos.

No proof that it was under his own reflex.

AGAIN... So you believe a masterson Thor hammer shot is more powerful than shots from Abstracts. Thanos no sold a huge blast from Eternity without even moving or noticing.. yet gets dropped by a hammer shot from Thor... Since your claiming Thanos didn't lower his durability... you're now saying a MT hammer shot is much greater than a pissed off full blast from Eternity... JESUS

When did he get dropped by Masterson? Are you talking about the time when he was on the ground faking? Wow Kurupt.

It KNOCKED HIM TO THE GROUND... He took punches from others that MOVED HIM. He no sold blasts from abstracts that DIDN'T EVEN MOVE HIM or GIVE HIM PAUSE. You dont' see somethign wrong there.. either it's the worst case of PIS ever.. or he clearly lowered his IG durability just like he did other powers of his.

Thanos was depowered while taking on the heroes not against the abstracts. Knocking someone down isn't hurting them. Warlock agreed in a direct frontal assault they had no chance. The comic was written to be dramatic. You claimed Magneto is more powerful than Thanos. You're awful.

This will not work, I already told you why.

So again, how exactly will Thanos beat Magneto ?

That reminds me: how is Thanos gonna beat Magneto ? I already asked this, and you replied: by blasting him !

This will not work, I already told you why.

He was unaware of his opponents next move. He retained limitless power. This was explained on panel. Not surprising since you didn't read it. Go ahead and cave, caver.

He cut off his sensory NUT...he didn't cut off his power or the use of the gems. Two different things. Him being unaware of his opponent next move doesn't mean that he wasnt using the power gem to amp his physical stats or the reality gem, etc etc, he just didn't know his opponents next move.

This is common sense.

not only could he blast right through Magneto shields... he could simply just matter manipulate him or drain him... one shot him with a single punch.. in fact that punch would kill him if he had zero shielding.. remove his helmet and TP the shit out of him... The list goes on and on

You need to tell me what you are talking about because everything that the heroes THOUGHT they did to Thanos, he was playing them. Just like Hulk and Drax thinking they had Thanos but got shrunk, Thor turned to Glass...Wolverine adamantium melted, Cyclops having an indestructible glass placed over his head...etc, etc...

Just like Galactus just simply blasted through Magneto force field or like the Phoenix blasted through his shields....oh wait, that didn't happen at all. He shields withstood their attacks.
