Thor vs Palpatine

Started by Lord Lucien13 pages

He charges in, but he's really f*cking good at charging in.

Yea...all movie Thor does is try and slug it out....good call 🙄

It's a lot easier for Robtard if he ignores the fact that Thor has to utilize intelligence to defeat enemies in addition to ridiculous strength and reflexes. Hence why he solos half of the jotun army, one-shots their biggest critter, takes out the SHIELD specially trained mercenaries like he's taking out the garbage, and basically is the only person in the Avengers who can contend with the Hulk. If Thor was a complete moron, he couldn't adapt to new fighting tactics and defeat numerous foes, especially when he was bereft of powers.

But Sidious, who can't overcome pun Yoda with his strength, can't TK the pod that Yoda sent up at him against gravity, and who fought Mace at 'frozen-molasses' speeds will definitely overcome him, because of the power of confirmation biasmiracles.

Hmmmm, sure its there, but thats a very Old School example, Thor has changed heaps since then, so Im not sure Id go supporting Mjolnir flying around and attacking all on its own, and I certainly wouldnt for movie Mjolnir, personally.

That was just the first example I found. Here's one from like two weeks ago:

Thor and Palp have had prep on each other before the battle.

Then Thor fries Palpatine from a distance.

That's still not current enough.

How many frost giants did he kill via hammer-throw compared to melee-smash?

The giant ice-beast he killed via you guessed it, charging straight at it.

Iirc, he jammed his hammer into the Destroyer's face, he was up close.

Loki's he's charged headfirst in and he's fought Loki more melee-style compared to long range attackings.

Against the chitauri he slugged it out a lot and did his maassive lightning charge only after Cap ordered him to.

So yes, It was a good call overall, Thor is far more a slugger than a tactical genius who sits back. 🙂

Thanks for proving my point, he sluuged it out with the giants, he chraged head first at the ice-beast, he slugged it out with the shield security team and he slugged it out with the Hulk 👆

Do stop wanking Thor though.

So.... IF Thor blitzes Palpatine with his hammer and brings it down hard, THEN how is Palps going to defend against it? With unverifiable but somehow buffed strength? With TK that can't deflect an up-coming pod? With his lightsaber, that Yoda repeatedly knocked him around and broke their saber locks? Are you going to argue that Yoda would outmuscle Thor now?

Dp

Make excuses all you want, movie Thor was shown to use AOE and ranged attacks in the majority of his fights.

Thor wanking needs to stop.

Thor's going to do what Thor does most of the time, he's going to charge in cos he's impatient and try to play smashy with his silly hammer, then he's going to get his ass handed to him by the old decrepit looking man with the glowstick more times than naught.

If you're going to dictate exacts, then he cuts the wrist, as Palpatine who plotted a galactic-level overthrow isn't a moron.

We will have more feats for Thor soon. As for this fight Palpatine gets wrecked easily.

Just someone who got routinely roughed up by people much weaker and slower than Thor, people who don't possess the same level of endurance, and has Mjolnir.

If you think his plotting is itself indicative of his ability to cut the wrist of someone attempting to smash him into atoms, you need to pass what you're smoking. Last I checked, political acumen and backroom scheming did not translate into victory against a god.

just like Thor has intimate knowledge of Loki, yet charges in and gets duped like a sucker.

The point is that an extremely intelligent person and master tactician wouldnt try and block an attack they know they couldn't. That would be stupid.

Thor isn't actually a god in the films, he's a powerful alien from a techno-magical race. He can't even raise the dead.

Wow, you're a piece of work.

1. Palpatine, despite his Machiavellian intelligence, routinely does stupid stuff in fights. LOOK AT THE LINK I PROVIDED. It has the saber fight with Yoda complete with screen captures. He can't even muster a decent defense, despite having 'out-smarted' the Republic and the Jedi up until this point. He is outlcassed.

2. God does not mean "raise the dead" in any definition I've ever seen. You're attempting to apply a standard that doesn't exist in an attempt to avoid the obvious: that Thor is above and beyond anyone in the SW movies. Hell, comic book Thor is even moreso, being perhaps the only Avenger to legitimately threaten Magneto.

3. Provide some evidence instead of nitpicking and ignoring valid arguments. Your bias is so apparent it's blinding some of us in the back row.

That's because he knows he can out-fight Loki in close quarters. Besides, fighting Loki always has Thor emotional, he's his brother. Palpatine has no emotional connection to Thor. He'll deal with Palpatine in the same calm manner he dealt with Destroyer.

Thanks 👆

Mistakes sure, he's still smart enough not to try and block a blow he'd know he couldn't now that prep/knowledge is in play.

Point is he isnt a god in the films and you're letting your comic book knowledge cloud your judgement.

I have repeatedly, you simply disregard any point that proves Thor is getting diced here more times than he's smashing Palpatine.

By trying to jab his hammer into Palp's face. Thor's losing a hand 🙁
