Regardless, the issue was you disagreeing with the fact that Thanos was LOOKING for a fight, which in fact he was.
First of all, this point means nothing. Second, you are not reading my posts. I said "test skirmish" as a nod to finding somebody to test his might against.
The next problem you have is your disagreement that Thanos prepped for Tyrant...when he UNQUESTIONABLY did. Yes, studying an opponent before you fight them IS considered prep. Yet, the prep even goes beyond that to solidify it AS prep... When you study your opponent looking for a way to beat them and FIND a weakness of theirs and try and exploit it.. That is 100% what prep is and EXACTLY what Thanos did before he met Tyrant, and again, exactly the opposite of what he did with Odin on pretty much every level.
Thanos learned nothing about Tyrant that was used during the fight. He simply strolled in and gave Tyrant a better fight than he gave Odin. Unless you can show different. You need to prove your point.
Don't give me this he was fighting Drax and Surfer nonsense... he pretty much one shot them with ease. To say nothing of the fact that Thanos had an een harder road before Odin... Fought PG Thor in a decent fight... then showed up in Asgard and fought their Army before Odin showed up.
It is not nonsense.
This has already been hashed out in other threads.
Before he fought against Odin, Thanos was simply standing on a hill, having a conversation. He was fresh.
Odin was fighting with Drax and Surfer. And, you are low-balling that. Kudos!
Lastly, and this is something you can't get around. Thanos felt both Tyrant's and Odin power... Yet, with Odin Thanos NEVER backed down from Odin nor felt like he was out of his league or Odin would kill him despite numerous attempts by Odin to have thanos admit this.. Yet with Tyrant, who he prepped for and was amped for... he backed down and admitted Tyrant woudl kill him.
How Thanos felt or thought is trumped by the actual events of the fights.
You are trying to delve into the thoughts of Thanos and use it to negate how badly he was beaten by Odin, in comparison to Tyrant.
It doesn't wash. Results and events will always be more important that the little statements made here and there in a comic. Especially weak examples, such as the one you are mentioning. I have already addressed it, and you re simply ignoring what I stated.
I can beat the hell out of somebody and still admit that, if given the chance, they would kill me. It does not mean that I am not the better fighter and I have just beaten the crap out of them.
Also, Thanos did not have an "amp". When compared to the thousands of orbs Tyrant taps, Thanos having one, is completely inconsequential. He simply wanted to study it.
Your "prep" argument means nothing unless you can show how Thanos used his prep for Tyrant.
