.... Six -Vs- Thanos .....

In character if Thanos saw a group of six characters one of which was Thor, he would immediately force block contain them because he isn't a dumb brute of a character, if he somehow missed one like Superman who has the possibility of dodging due to his speed, he would then switch to TP to even things up in terms of movement speed. When averaging things out like this, you have to go by track record, and Thanos' track record is a hell of a lot better than any of the people that he's facing here. Three of the team are complete non factors.

Yes [b]"we go by the writer's intentions" when it suits our argument, but when it doesn't we just toss the writer's intentions out the window. When Superman gets hit, he's jobbing, but when he's ducking, and weaving it's the writer's intentions. [/B]

spot on .

I remember when he said Thanos used a shield against Odin and to stop Thor's hammer before despite it not even been shown, said or even hinted at.

Many of the characters are faster than Thanos. The moment the fight began he would be getting popped right and left. He would literally have no time to properly attack. No one is just going to sit there and allow Thanos to attack while they watch. Any type of evasive moving around would cause Thanos to miss (assuming they didn't begin attacking right away).

Superman would be a huge problem. He knows by basic knowledge how dangerous Thanos is. He's going to bring his A game. Speed will phuck Thanos badly.

This whole Superman gets hit intentionally has to stop. No character just stands there and lets somebody punch them to get their measure. Thats just asinine.

Superman has stood there on occasion, and taken hits from people to projectiles which gave the reader an idea of just how durable he is. But there are times that he is in fights, and he gets hit, and this happens by people slower than him like Mongul. This is not him jobbing, but how he often fights. At this point this is no longer about the team vs Thanos, but about Superman vs Thanos, and people having a hard time seeing Thanos being able to hit him. It has already been proven that Thanos can hit guys moving far faster than he appears to be able to, in order to hit them. However he has hit them, so there should be no argument there. I also read about the Gamora/Thanos sparring match, but Thanos wasn't using options against her he would against someone that he deemed an enemy.

What could Thanos have done to stop that entire match with Gamora from continuing for longer than an instant? He is capable of omni directional assaults, which would have ended it before it began. If people believe that Superman beats Thanos, why not Gladiator, Hyperion, Blue Marvel, and any number of the Superman clones? I mean they all have nearly the same ability when it comes to speed.

^Because in the end Superman is unique, he beats people who heralds have no right to beat, like Darkseid Avatars.

Unfortunately Thanos is not Darkseid, and has a much better record than he does. It becomes ridiculous when people state that Superman can not be hit by people slower than him when he has. Does he just allow Brainiac to hit him for giggles? The Superman being argued in this thread , isn't the one that is in comics. Superman has clearly been hit in the past, and it wasn't because he wanted to be hit, it was because he had no choice but to be hit.

Post the scene after that.

Why? It is irrelevant to the statement that made me post it in the first place. Facts shown, case closed.

Yes, Thanos is weaker and in a Superman comic he would get the DS treatment, thatis sure.

When has Thanos been given this type of treatment? There comes a time when you have to go back and check both of their records, and the only times when Thanos is over matched is when he goes head to head with Elite Sky Fathers, and Abstracts. Superman on the other hand gets concussions from being back handed into the moon by a less than Thanos level character, to being mauled by a Predator like assassin. Track records should tell anyone capable of setting aside bias, that Thanos is the type of character that Superman would need a lot of help to take down.

Odin would have done the same thing to Superman, that he did to the Surfer, and that is one shot him. He was not able to do this to Thanos. Just something to think about.

People!! Listen to this man!! He knows his shit!!
Bravoo.. Bravooo Stoic!!

Thanos isn't Darkseid and doesn't get treated like him.

Prime example with facing team busters DS got nearly killed by a punch , knee to the head and then head slammed into a wall. In return Thanos smiles at 3shots from a enraged PG Thor

Insane Titan's sig is the only thing needed to answer this thread 😄

We use some type of common sense when arguing characters. Characters bring their A game and fight with full capacity. That is the forum rule. Otherwise, I can argue that Thanos won't tp (since he only tp less than 2 times in mid battle) or force block (since he only force blocked twice in mid battle).

You are also not getting the circumstances of why Thanos has hit very fast opponents. It's the very same reason why slow opponents have hit Superman (outside of his choosing to be hit). Their speed and reflexes where ignored.

Thanos doesn't have omnidirectional blasts, he has used multidirectional ones on a few occasions though. But according to your stance, Thanos wouldn't use them since he only used them like 3 times in mid battle against his whole career.
Getting blasted period implies that one is standing still. Any evasive maneuvering around causes a blast to miss.

In reality, Superman is very gifted and it doesn't take a rocket scientist to know that Thanos would be a ping pong ball to Superman.

Thor smarted the shit out of Thanos there. Boy was he mad from that hit.

Yes Surfer beats Superman 10/10 everytime IMO.
His reflexes and speed nearly matches, he has superman's weakness, etc.

You are crazy.

Originally posted by h1a8
You are not understanding the key differences here. Superman either chooses to get hit or his reflexes and speed are ignored and he gets hit by not being able to respond to the attack.
If the latter, then there is no such thing as choice. Character implies "choice". And Thus, there is no such thing as "how he fights". Because he didn't choose to get hit or his powers ignored for the sake of the plot.

You just keep low balling Thanos as your argument..
You keep only using high end feats for Supes..
Your trying to say that Superman would manhandle perhaps the greatest teambuster in the last 30, 40 years on his own. That's wishful thinking..

I stay up late at night 2 H1, wishing Hulk was real and he let me hop on his back as he leaps away into the sunset, but I know its not going to happen!!🙁 same as your Superman is not going to solo this fight or knock on your bedroom window and carry you away as if you were Lois Lane! Its not happening...

Don't know if he is a Superman fan. He said Surfer can beat him 10/10.

I agree with him on that Surfer beats Superman.
But I am a big Hulk fan and do wish he take me away lol

Yup, that the team wins. Thanos would be a ping pong ball. Getting hit right and left, getting knocked around like a ping pong ball.

Thor smarted the shit out of Thanos there. Boy was he mad from that hit.
