3. While Goku and move and react pretty quickly, Thanos can move and react infinitely quickly, given that he's everywhere at once and can amp himself to infinite levels of speed and power, or otherwise just not be physically present to Goku in the first place.
4. Thanos could just clone Goku and have him train for an arbitrary amount of time in a pocket timeline before coming to oneshot the Goku he's fighting, make Goku fight phantom versions of Frieza until he runs out of energy, or do any number of possible ways to f*ck with him given that Goku has been outwitted and impacted by such situations before and Thanos with the IG is essentially infinitely intelligent.
Even though I have you on ignore, I felt an inclination to pick apart this idiotic little post you've come up with.
1. Thanos wasn't depowered in the SS showing either- he just didn't have sensory input, IOW's.
2. Never said there was.
3. No he can't, lmao. Without literal omniscience, Thanos couldn't even react to SS flying to try and snag the IG from him. With omniscience, things play differently in comics. In a forum fight, where the first planck instant that passes decides the entire fight, omniscience will literally do nothing for him.
4. Sure, to a version of Goku that couldn't blitz him. Which this one can. Making everything you just said irrelevant.
Now I'll ask you the same question I asked Galan- show a scan of Thanos wielding the IG which demonstrates combat speed better than MFTL and moving through stopped time(instantaneous travel, or close to it). If you can't then he demonstrably has no defense against an outright blitz from speedsters like Wally West, SA Supe's, UI Goku, etc. SA Supe's could only do it after accelerating, but he could still do it(flew faster than infinity, whatever that means).
KK SSJB Goku outpaced time itself, IOW's, according to angels and other beings we look to for definition of source material in DB. While still not nearly as impressive as Wally's feat, it is in the same ballpark considering they both outpaced time itself.
Post a single instance of IG Thanos coping with a scenario like this, and I'll concede. He admitted on panel that he would have lost everything, had SS succeeded in snagging the gauntlet, instead of not being able to perceive what was happening while moving at his own full speed. Meaning that if someone could move accurately at that speed, Thanos would have the gauntlet snatched off of his hand. Before you type out, "Oh well he didn't have his sensory input, he does here.", understand that this does absolutely nothing for him in this forum scenario, where Goku would be close enough to take advantage of his superior combat speed and snag the gauntlet before Thanos could even react.
