By dominating Thanos you mean, Thanos feigning helplessness while Runner destroyed his chair?
Because Runner never really hit Thanos.
Thanos acted as if he was helpless.
Reaching for pieces of the chair.
Runner started talking trash.
Then Thanos said "I think not." and simply righted himself, called Runner an idiot, and owned him.
lol.

Thanos couldnt touch Runner; he tried to blast him and failed...
Runner did destroy Thanos's chair and had Thanos helpless; Thanos had no answer to Runners speed and had no way to effectively fight back...
Runner told him, "talk, or be beaten into grape jelly" and Thanos talked as he really had no other choice; Thanos however did use that opportunity to get a fix on Runner and use the Time Gem on him...
So Thanos never "owned" Runner, but he did outsmart him...
So my point remains; Runner has never been overpowered by anyone less than full powered Galactus...

He told him his only chance he had, involved his speed, but Thanos knew he was a braggart, so he bought time, and knew Runner would stop to brag when he thought he had victory, a scenario that Thanos force-fed to him, then called him an idiot.
Righted himself with his power. Proving he never needed the chair.
And owned him with the gem.
Oh and btw Juntai, its a nitpick point, but one I will nitpick juse because...
One could reasonably argue that Runners final attack against Thanos; the one that fully destroyed Thanos's chair, did infact hit Thanos...
The chair was nearly destroyed prior to that last attack; Runner would have had to make direct contact against Thanos because there was nothing else in the way to hit...
So Runner DID beat on Thanos while toying with him... 😉

Runner did have Thanos helpless; Thanos couldnt physically reach him and couldnt blast him...Tricking Runner into standing still long enough to get a fix on him with the Time Gem was the only option Thanos had left...

No, he wasnt being outsmarted the entire time; Thanos didnt even know where Runner was when Thanos teleported to his general location...
After being blitzed and after some dialog, Thanos attempts to blast Runner and is punished for the act...
Then Runner gives Thanos the option to talk or be beaten into grape jelly; Thanos choose to talk as that was the only way to get Runner to stand still long enough to get a fix on him with the Time Gem...
Thanos simply took advantage of the opportunity that presented itself to him...

Runner was toying with and dominating him; Runner was blitzing at will, smiling about it, and Thanos couldnt do anything to stop it...
Thanos couldnt effectively fight back and was just taking damage; trickery (and Runners arrogence) is the only thing that saved Thanos...
Except none of that happened.
Thanos never took damage.
Thanos pretended to be helpless, as he demonstrating by righting himself and walking over to Runner, where he previously was pretending to be helpless and grasping to hold onto a piece of chair or standing on one for footing. He proved he didn't need it the whole time.
Thanos beat him without ever having to fight him.
Beating up an inanimate object, never hitting your opponent, talking shit and getting rekt is about the farthest thing from dominating victory as you can get.

Oh, all of what I said happened; all of it...
Runners final attack against him damaged him...
And Thanos didnt get cocky until after having gotten a fix on him with the Time Gem...
Its easy to right yourself if you are not actively being attacked btw; especially when you and your opponent are standing still talking to each other for several minutes at the very least...
And Thanos did attempt to fight him, and was punished for the attempt...
