*Avoids train wreck*
So.. How's about a DC One Million team? Say, one with Hourman android on it. Superman One Million, and...
Would Batman even matter here? Maybe he could distract him with soul kung fu..?
Their Wonder Woman and Flash is actually inferior to regular JLA. I guess you could sub in the super ape..
Originally posted by DarkSaint85Well different parts have different speeds. Thanos hands are his fastest parts. On average I would say his hands when blocking or striking moves 1/100th of the speed of light at the middle of their motion. I would judge his hand speed by some of the attacks he blocked (although character's telegraph sometimes) and his punching power, which translates to punching speed.
How fast would you say Thanos was? And how would you judge his speed?
His feet and torso are very slow though. His running speed is probably no more than 100 mph and his mobility speed even worse. For example, If Surfer zipped around to the back of him then Surfer would get there before he moved an inch to turn around to face Surfer. Thus zipping behind Thanos would be very useful in a fight.

Not gonna happen. He just talks all of this in a forum mess, but discounts what he deems unlikely in a comic. People have hit the Surfer plenty of times. So many in fact that if it were PIS it would only happen once. Per forum rules he's dead wrong. Thanos tagged the Fallen One with ease. He slapped Hulk out of his leaping bull rush with ease. It comes to a point where you just have to say that Thanos is fast.

How do you know his running speed is maxed at 100mph? And that his mobility is worse?
Also, his hand speed.
Originally posted by StoicFallen One didn't move fast at all when Thanos stopped him. He had no time or distance to build up speed. Remember, objects accelerate to a certain speed. At the moment Thanos stopped him could have had Fallen One at orbital speed, nothing more.

Thanos has superhuman speed (faster than a human) but in comparison to Superman and Surfer then he is slow as shit.
Originally posted by DarkSaint85Based off faster character's running speed. He never moved his feet quicker than that. He once ran for the IG and didn't outrun anyone.

I never seen Thanos very mobile (turning his whole body around in a jiffy). Spidey should dance around him fairly easily. Even Gamora was outmaneuvering him.
Unless you have showings that contradict that?
His hand speed is impressive though. But not better than the fastest heralds.

Thanos is not beating both Thor and Surfer in a forum fight. Get your head out of the comics and into logic. Surfer can kill Thanos with blackhole blasts. There is no way out of that tactic. Surfer is fast as shit. There is no way Thanos can defend against both attacking him while trying to do attacks himself.
Well, heres some logic.
Odin, effortlessly grabbed and choked out surfer.
ok right.
Now odin also beat down thanos, and had to try, HARD.
So thanos is way, way, way above surfer.
Surfer is OP as hell don't get me wrong.
But not quite there.

👆 I agree. Speed is the #1 deciding factor. I actually think that the Flash would do great against Thanos... He can definitely take some wins.

How do you know he was not jobbing?
On the one hand, you have him hitting and absolutely slaughtering Surfer.
Very well, you say, Surfer is obviously jobbing in his speed.
Why? Because Thanos is slow. Surfer should dance around him.
Why? Because Thanos has been hit by Gamora.
Yet you give Surfer the benefit of the doubt speed wise (he was DEF jobbing/PIS/etc) but not Thanos.

Also, if spidey danced around him, and got within arms reach, he would grab him effortlessly, and crush spidey like the bug he is.
FLash usually runs like hell from darkseid, because flash knows he could do some damage, but he'd die no matter what he tried if he fought.
Darkseid and thanos are such tanks, they don't need to be mobile, take the fight to them or run basically.

surfer has a bazillion speed feats and travel Ftl on a daily basis.
Thanos doesn't move nowhere those speeds outside his confrontations with Surfer. Thus Surfer was jobbing and Thanos wasn't.

Or his fight speed is kicked up a notch in confrontations - this isn't a race, it's a fight.

Thanos wrecks. If you're looking for a team consisting of 5 heralds to defeat Thanos, your best bet is to have someone on the team who is capable of power-stacking.Example: Black Alice+Constantine+Doctor Fate+Shazam+Zatanna. Alice absorbs the cumulative power of the magic users at the onset of the battle and proceeds to fight Thanos. Not saying she'd win, but she would certainly stand a better chance at beating him than 5 individual heralds, imho. /shrug
Correct me if I'm wrong (I could be) but couldn't Alice only copy/absorb the powers of one mystic at a time??
