He defeated him. He did not need to destroy him. He was inexperienced and put his plan together pretty quickly. I am not interested in your games because you are upset the filmmakers agree Thanos is greater than any villain seen thus far in the MCU. Strange had the time stone and would not dare even bring it into play against Thanos because he would not fall victim with his pants down like Dormammu. Dormammu was ignorant and at a complete loss as he was mentally broken and left with his tail in between his legs to an inexperienced I had better come up with something quick here comes Dormammu Dr. strange.
Thanos is the best and greatest villain in the entire MCU. Feige said it. Argue with him. Filmmakers of Infinity War said he is the most powerful villain in the MCU without the stones due to his will.
No one else even held two at a time. Quite the feat to collect them all with Strange, Avengers, Xandar, Gotg, Asgard, and Wakanda standing in his way.
