Thanos would not be able to engage WB Hulk in a pure hand-to-hand fight. He would need to use his brains and other powers to have a shot at winning.

It was shown that eating his gamma energy did nothing to him, This is due to the fact that he gets his energy from an extradimensional source much like the Q bands get theirs from the quantum zone.Thanos has never shown the ability to go into it with a guy like WB Hulk. I realize that you can't use collateral damage as a basis of how strong a character is solely, but there comes a point when you have to guess that a guy that is able to pop a planet with a footfall has got to be stronger than Thanos. In Vegas the this was what the reader was supposed to come away understanding about the Hulk
It went something like, although he didn't destroy Earth does not mean that he could not have during the WW Hulk mini. Anni isn't on the level that he would be able to just gobble up WB Hulk energies without reprisals of a rather swift death.
In terms of strength, WB Hulk is on another level than any on the field. If Team 1 wins, it won't be without taking heavy casualties.
Thanos would not be able to stand in front of WB Hulk and bang out.
In other words, I don't think that WBH did not do much that other high-level power holders would not be capable of doing if they let it all hang out.
Honestly, do you really think that the same, or worse, would not occur if the Silver Surfer was having trouble containing or controlling his power?

this^ people are really relishing in the feat. Plenty of heroes "hold back" plenty of heralds could replicate the feat if the went ape-shit like the hulk did imo. But this fight doesnt boil down to Hulk or Thanos because they would be busy with each other and wouldnt be taking the other down soon. This battle boils down to Nate and Silver Surfer. They would lose the majority againt anyone on team one. Thanos is too much for them, so is Mar-vell, Annihilus, Magus, and Ultron. Once those two are picked off its 5 on 3. Team one for the maj.
Oh and for the Hulk fanboys, Thanos isnt a newbie chump with his powers if galactus had trouble get thru his shield Hulks in for a fight

Well you have Sentry at his best so I think that they have a decent shot. Surfer isn't that weak, Thanos is his teams strongest link, if he goes down, the rest are done for. Mar-Vell only showed that he is a powerful energy wielder, his strength level is negligible. I mean Thanos man handled him with ease. Now Thanos may be strong, and there's no denying it, but he can't keep pace with WB Hulk's peak.
whose gonna take thanos down? also your too wrapped up in strength, this isnt a wrestling match, this is a match with characters fighting to the best of their ability its thanos fight to lose, if hulk decided to go all HOTM he'd hurt his team worst than the opposition.

Somebody laugh at sin for me because I don't have the energy to do it. Thanos going fist cuffs with this Hulk gets destroyed...his blasts isn't stopping Hulk and his shields would crumble facing this Hulk. His only option is bfring.
prove wbh could break his shields

The shields he used against Galactus wasn't his standard shields.
Thanos compared PG Champion to Savage Hulk and PG Champion broke through his shields.

You brought up Thanos shields against Galactus like it is his norm. What I'm telling you is that those shields he used against Galactus wasn't his normal shields. Do you get it now?
Thanos uses tech, his tech consistently improves, from Galactus to Omega etc..his shields are just that good. You made the assertion that his shields couldnt withstand Hulk. Which is false, since it has withstood better. Without prep. I was just using Galan as an outlier, but thats neither here nor there. Thanos isnt a stupid one-dimensional brick, he isnt going to go h2h with Hulk even though he has the strength and durability(shields aside) to do so. He is going to use his tech, plus his strength, plus his energy blast etc..to engage him. He's not a one trick pony.
Im not even here arguing who would win that fight because Thanos and Hulk will NOT be the deciding factors...it will be Nate and Norrin which I have said a thousand times before
Originally posted by StoicComparing Hulk's energy to the Q-Bands isn't the best way to prove he won't be drained considering Annihilus ate Quasar, and the Q-Bands themselves have iirc absorbed Ego, who for all the low feats still contains a lot more power than any Hulk.

Thanos' first appearance has him destroying a planet in a fight with Drax... someone who was destroying small suns and surviving the explosion...
Hell, the guy took a blast from the Cosmic Cube in a weakened state and had to be put out by telepaths after.
Magus, who's in this thread overlapped timelines to halt a tear parsecs wide ripped open in the universe. Mar-Vell one shot killed him. Thanos kicked the shit out of Mar-Vell.
If you want to bring up feats, it'd be best if you didn't actually focus on the planet aspect when that is grossly overmatched by 3 people in this thread.
Thanos killed a full Nova Force Nova while Starlord was on his side with the Cosmic Cube, Indicating it at the very least wasn't a one sided battle. But Hulk would be the guy who he wouldn't be able to withstand...
Also in that same feat, the two WB Hulk level beings failed to harm Umar in the slightest with the "most powerful shockwave ever!"

PG Champ broke a planet by himself. Hulk at his most powerful ever just broke a planet with help from an equal.
🙂
The Power Gem itself on The Hood managed to beat the absolute dogshit out of Red Hulk, who at the very least is Savage's equal in strength. Champ without the Gem did this:

Savage is nowhere near PG Champ's strength level. Thanos was wrong
