Thor (IW) hits these guys.

I don't think Stormbreaker is as powerful as IG but it flat out overpowered his IG beam. That's an objective fact. Thanos blasted the hammer with his gauntlet, it tore through his beam and there was a powerful bright explosion as it shattered his defenses and impaled him.

The IG let Thanos live, but he even himself said Thor would have successfully killed him if he had aimed for the head.

If Thanos could have easily killed Thor or turned him into bubbles, he wouldn't have literally run away....plus the snap spent him.

I only watched the movie once and the feat is a little silly, but Stormbreaker is supposed to be the most powerful weapon in Asgard.

Spoiler:
we dont know how strong the beam was. His strongest beams were from the power stone, which were purple. This one wasn't purple. And instead of blasting the hammer with the beam, he could have stopped time. We don't know "why" he didnt, but he could. He was fast enough. The entire point of that scene was that they couldnt stop Thanos. You cant spin it any other way.

The power levels were nonsense in the film. Obviously there is Thor throwing Stormbreaker through the beam but we also have IM making Thanos bleed or Cap stopping his hand.

Spoiler:
I agree on that part, Its like Bendis was writing the story.

Still enjoyed it and understand why it was done for the sake of the movie. No excuse for this thing to happen in Comics though. Fuq Bendis.

Spoiler:
I took that whole scene (since the moment Thanos arrives on earth) as a homage to the scene in the comics were Thanos powers down and toys/kills all the heroes on that asteroid in space. Where he kills each hero in different ways.

Spoiler:
Can't say I think the criticism of that is fair, tbh. The characters were already scaled down power-wise even if Thor is really starting to creep up there, and putting those people up against a comics-level gauntlet even without all the gems would get them atomised casually.

If you don't like that they were all scaled down the way they were, that's fair, but calling it Bendis-level writing is just mean. Like, really mean.

Heh, I did say I understood 100% why it was done and still enjoyed it.

I misread then. My bad.

Kal El and Doomsday Survive

only kurse(he swatted mjlonir aside like a fly), supes and doomsday survive... supes does it comfortably.

Spoiler:
Except the Gauntlet could still destroy a moon or kill half the population of the universe with a snap of his fingers. It may have been scaled down, but it still was absurdly powerful and should have allowed Thanos to destroy them all with a gesture.

Only Doomsday survives due to his regeneration.

If Wonder Woman can block the attack with her bracers then she may succeed.

Well they

Spoiler:
call it Stormbreaker, but it's clearly Jarnbjorn, Thor's Celestial killing Axe. Aside from that though, Tony managed to make Thanos bleed after almost 2 minutes of constant high-powered attacks. And all it did was open a tiny cut on his cheek. It was pretty on the nose.

So I've only read some spoilers and it may take a few days to answer and come back to this. But I can't wait so here it goes.

Thor hits these guys as hard as he can with Stormbreaker. Who survives? They can brace for the attack but that's it.

1. Iron Man (bleeding edge)
2. Wonder Woman
3. Hulk
4. Steppenwolf
5. Kurse
6. Superman
7. Doomsday

All except Hulk, Doomsday, and Iron Man i'd say.

He clears. A full powered direct hit to the head would stop everyone in this list.

The Nano suit could definetly take a couple of blows dude.

Doomsday could definetly take one shot. Hulk too.

No it wouldn't. Not after what we saw Stormbreaker do. Besides, the nano suit's main strength was that it could morph and self-heal, not that it was impregnable.

The nano suit tanked an Asteroid, whose raw impact was INMENSE. Then it took several punches from Thanos.

Damn, the suit is several times stronger than it's predecessor. Which are already insanely durable.

Stormbreaker is insane i agree, but it won't one shot the guys i mentioned.

And was it undamaged? We don't know do we? We know it took IM out from the fight for a bit and the suit could have been healing in that time. Besides, a chunk of rock isn't a sharp object like Stormbreaker is, same way Thanos' punches aren't sharp objects.

On top of that

Spoiler:
Stormbreaker powered through Thanos' IG blast, broke through his shield and then punched through his chest. We already know that Thanos' shields stood up to IM's and Strange's strongest attacks and Thanos himself was durable enough to easily catch Nebula's and Gamora's swords in his hand without injury. No way is the nanosuit armor tougher than Thanos + IG shield + IG force blast.

He wad out of the match because he was under a weight of thousands if not millions of tons lol.

Crossing a beam of energy doesnt prove for sharpnesd WTH. Also, Thanos was wearing a shirt dude! He wasnt wearing no armor or shield.
