Nothing. Its just amuses me how far thanos fanboys are going to reach before conceding that thanos had an incredibly low showing and move on. Its not like Ka-zar beat thanos down or something. The age of starlin is past us bro, thanos is going to get beat down like every other villain at the end of the arc.
lawl... who said that wasn't a low showing? your hate is showing. btw did you just bite off that "age of starlin phrase"? lawls...

Right.
Also do you have anything else to say or just "lawl, you are a hater"?

I think he was speculating with the "may be" part.
I doubt the writer would have Stark talk about it only to have it not be true at all.
All of Stark's other "speculations" turned out to be true, e.g., like how Thanos couldn't control the CC properly, and how he could only BFR people. So his theory on Thanos damaging himself because of his lack of control of CC is more likely to be true.

Maybe, maybe not. That's not the concrete evidence to show that thanos was weakened. Its just a statement made from a character with the mentioned character showing no hint of weakness. Also just because tony made right assumptions with regards to the faux cube which he knows more than probably everyone else due to being familiar with it doesn't mean he was right in "may be thanos hurt himself" using that faux cube. Or did you notice that none of the two statements he made about the faux cube were started with "may be". That's because those two were supported by thor gathering data on thanos, third was him speculating.
He didn't make "assumptions", he studied the cube and found out what it really was (a dark energy generator or whatever) and explained how Thanos mistook it for a real CC, and merged with the fake CC weakening himself. And this is due to his lack of control while merged.
The fact that he was right about his other statements about the cube makes it more likely that he's right about Thanos damaging himself. Stark studied the thing and actually knows what he's talking about. This would explain the low showing for Thanos, but of course people like to conviniently ignore what Stark said, or pretend he's wrong.
But let's say we take a neutral stance and think "maybe" Thanos damaged himself. The fact that Thanos "might have" weakened himself when he merged with the CC is more than enough to refute people using it as baseline of Thanos' power level because he "might have" been weakend.

The fact that we don't have any concrete evidence of thanos damaging himself other than a speculation from tony and the extent of the injury makes this claim dubious at best and an excuse at worst. Thanos could've nicked his chin for all we know.

That's not enough evidence. Tony didn't start with "may be the cube is a faux ube" like he did with thanos. The first two are facts based on observation and the third is pure speculation with "may be he damaged himself using that faux cube". He had no way of knowing that and thanos himself made no implication that he was injured. The fact that Tony was right about two statements made on data gathered by thor doesn't mean he was right in the speculation too.The fact that we don't have any concrete evidence of thanos damaging himself other than a speculation from tony and the extent of the injury makes this claim dubious at best and an excuse at worst.

He theorized that Thanos weakened himself when he merged the cube based on knowledge of how the fake CC worked. He wasn't simply throwing out random ideas. He came to that conclusion logically based on what he knew about the cube, it wasn't random speculation like you're implying.
Sorry, but unlike you, I don't like to ignore on-panel statements by major characters, and unlike you I don't like pretending they're wrong if it the statements don't suit my opinion. I'd rather take everything into account, and not cherry pick.
The fact still remains, Tony said Thanos weakened himself when he merged with the fake CC, based on his knowledge of the fake CC. The fact that Thanos may have been weakened during his low showing refutes anybody using it as Thanos' new baseline (which is already dumb to begin with).

The fact still pertains that the first two statements were based on facts while the third was just speculation.
I'm not saying it was necessarily a wrong speculation but there is little evidence its right and thanos himself making no implication of being weakened makes it non-viable.
No, it doesn't as we don't go by speculations. You however are totally entitled to be happy with it and nobody used it as a baseline for thanos. Its treated like a low showing which it was.

Yes, The fact that Thanos "may have" been weakened during his low showing refutes people trying to use it as a baseline. Anyone who uses it as a baseline is automatically assuming Tony's statements are wrong, a assumption that can't be supported.
No one using it as a baseline? 😂 I guess you haven't been around the forums lately. Almost every Thanos thread has posts about this low showing and people using it as a baseline.
I'm not quite understanding why this is be taken as such a big deal. Even weakened, it still seemed sub par for Thanos and considering Bendis doesn't give an actual phuck about power levels if it doesn't suit the story, it shouldn't be held against Thanos and should basically be just a trolling tool against Thanos fans. (😛) but other than that, it should be taken with as much seriousness as Bendis going full Bendis should be taken with. Meaning it's not such a big deal since everyone has their downfall at Bendis' hands at one point or another.

Yeah and it can be used in the opposite side as well as there is no evidence that it was true either. The previous statements don't give credibility to a speculation.
Welcome to comic book forums and the pain of darkseid fans.
I think of course a big part of the low showing was just bad writing. It was just Marvel trying to cash off of the movie.
But I don't like the fact that people are completely ignoring what Tony said about Thanos maybe weakening himself, or simplying assuming Tony is wrong based off nothing. I think it should definitely be taken into account, not ignored conviniently, during Thanos' low showing. It would make more sense too, given Thanos' history.
But the low showing is a pretty potent troll tool.

Yeah, its left ambiguous as hell. Typical bendis.
Bendis is writing GoTG in which thanos is going to appear. You should get ready for another beatdown.
Originally posted by vince_sliceStill i took as Thons was got off -guard it is not like the team put Thanos done it was clear he was getting up to fight again when the abtracts came and spank his purple but and there was not much Thanos could do to defend himself as he deosn't fly and the team was basiclly beating him as he was falling
It was mentioned by Stark that Thanos may have did damage to himself using the bootleg CC.
