If you feel you can prove your claim by all means do so. If you can just make worthless assumptions then you concede the claim. That is how debating works.
Ironman has a powersource capable of absorbing additional energy and redirecting it. Last I checked, Thanos' sword had no such power source.

We see Thanos sword deflect energy in the battle. If you want to continue this charade of Thanos possessing some ordinary metal sword that can block Thors stormbreaker or deflect Iron Mans energy continue to act like the Thor fanatic we both know you to be.
The only one making baseless claims here is you. All of my claims are backed up with feats and logic. Yours are pure opinions.[/B]
You claimed Thor and cap both wielding lightning can defeat Thanos with this easy to use tactic. Your claims defy all logic and reason. The evidence shows Thanos is better than Thor, Cap, and tony not just Thor making your biased conclusion even more insane than usual.
Yes, because it was just a single shot. Same way I can probably take a single punch without injury but I won't be able to take multiple punches without injury. Problem here is that you have zero proof to show that Thanos can tank repeated blasts from Thor's lightning, not when one of them was enough to knock him down. That's like saying just because Thor was able to take one of Hulk's punches without injury that means he can take unlimited Hulk punches without issue.[/B]
You made the claim. I have asked numerous times of proof. You made the claim but just continue to repeat your position without any evidence. Put up or shut up. Thanos was not just hit by lightning he was hit by a hammer, punches, mjolnir, lightning, SW power who can destroy an infinity stone, carols attacks who can fly through ships and is the most powerful MCU hero as well. None of it even showed a critically wounded with collective damage he accrued yet without a single example of Thor doing so against a credible threat you expect me to accept your conjecture as a legitimate point.
😂
You know you have no counter to this logic, so your argument basically boils down to applying a no-limits fallacy of "If a single hit can't automatically kill or injure someone, then it means they can withstand an unlimited amount of like hits".[/B]
You need an example of the tactic to be a claim of merit. You would need to prove Thor can do it, has the power to use no limits energy or that of enough power to defeat Thanos when we have seen nothing to even allude to this preposterous position. If you cannot use evidence you are debating via josh tactics. Only seeing what you want, scripting the fight, and not citing any evidence which corroborates your point.
I never said it will only take 1 lightning strike to defeat him. It will take multiple lightning strikes plus possible a headshot from Stormbreaker. We already know he's powerless to escape from the lightning shot once it hits him. We know Stormbreaker can shop his head off.Nothing is stopping Thor from blasting Thanos continuously with lightning till he's softened up enough for a finishing move from SB.
[/B]
We do not know he cannot escape that is your position. So now you pretend he can do both simultaneously. We see in IW he does one then the other against a taken by surprise Thanos.
If what you say is true why has Thornever once done so to anyone? Is he stupid? Do you always ignore what happens on screen in favor of your imagination and what your brain says happens. Thanos beat him multiple times in the films. Thor needs help against Thanos a d still came up on the short end of the stick.
Thor used it to take out Loki in their first fight when he was getting overwhelmed. He used it to take out multiple leviathans in one shot, leviathans who were powerful enough to destroy buildings by casually smashing into them. He used it to beat up Hulk in Ragnarok.
[/B]
Thor did not take out Loki with lightning. He used multiple attacks, used the hammer, etc. Hulk palmed a Leviathan so to compare a Leviathan to Thanos us so cringe worthy you do not even deserve to be in this debate. Thor never beat Hulk with lightning plus had momentum and a punch that connected. That is not the same as spamming lightning as your claim. You are not even consistent in your arguments.
Now, please provide proof of Thanos being able to block or get out of lightning hits.
[/B]
We see him block energy with his sword, weather lightning and counter. You have used no examples of Thor taking down anyone close to Thanos level via lightning spamming alone. You misreprented the Hulk fight with punches, other attacks, and disregarded his skill and the fact he did not win. You lied.
His actions while getting blasted by the lightning leads me to believe they hurt him.
[/B]
So did a hammer shot but not enough to seriously injure him or get him anywhere close to being defeated.
You gave no proof he cannot withstand multiple hits considering what else he withstood in this encounter. You need evidence. Thanos survived the stones in unison when they would kill most likely 98 percent of the other MCU heroes including Thor. Lightning. 😂
Evidence suggests lightning is not even close to what he has withstood.
Yes, Hulk and Thor were able to knock each other away with punches and they were still able to continue fighting. That doesn't mean that they weren't getting hurt by those punches. Thor, for example, would not have been able to just lie still and allow Hulk to wail on him with punches and get back up after 5 minutes like it didn't hurt him.[/B]
Agreed but it does not mean those punches hurt more than punches that did not send them as far. That is the point. Neurher guy was defeated despite the weaponry and other attacks they used against each other.
I've repeated this multiple times before. Cap is not Thor and does not have Thor's lightning feats. Endgame Thor is a shadow of his former self and nowhere near as impressive as IW Thor who is the one being discussed here. Fact is, Thanos was unable to stop IW Thor from embedding an axe to his chest... and that was him with the completed IG.
[/B]
You need proof. Cap has always displayed far greater skill than Thor due to his weaker physicality and fights. No proof EG is lesser than just another baseless conclusion without any proof.
Thanos survived an axe to the chest and using the stones in unison that kills all of the avengers save Hulk. Lol. Thor lost. Thor had the element of surprise and still failed. He admitted he failed. He was there to stop Thanos and kill him. Thanos survived and killed 50 percent. Thor became depressed because he was so utter failure. Even his own mother admitted it. Thanos achieved his goal. He won.
A push that is strong enough to slam you to the ground at the moment of impact is going to hurt you.
[/B]
We are talking about a universe where guys can resist stars and you think a push is serious business. Gtfo. Thanos was fine after every lightning blast after he received more damage prior to and after like it was nothing. Quit with your real world trashy logic when we are talking about guys with this level of superhuman, strength, and durability.
Cap used hammer and shield great in melee but let's not pretend his lightning strikes where anywhere as impressive as what Thor displayed in Rangarok or IW.
[/B]
Thor used lightning without the hammer because he has the innate power cap did not. He needs the hammer. Cap used it just as good as Thor. It connected to its target. Thor does not possess more powerful lightning and cap was adept enough to hit him. Cap looked better against Thanos than Thor in these moments. Cap did save his life. 🙂
He was worthy. That matters.
Thanos completed his objective, yes, but he didn't defeat Thor. He was heavily injured while Thor wasn't and he escaped from Thor.
[/B]
Thanos was not there to defeat Thor. He snapped his figure and achieved it. Just as Thanos left after starlord showed up after he acquired the time stone. He simply does not care. Thor failed in his mission. Thanos could blink him out of existence or use the stones for personal gain he did none of it.
Thanos didn't resist Stormbreaker either, so that point is moot. You'll have to prove what Hela was wearing was armor. Go on, prove it.Neither Hela, Thanos nor Thor have the destructive output of Surtur who's capable of destroying Asgard with a single blow. Please make sure that when you make comparisons, you're actually comparing relevant factors.
We can go around this over and over again. Bottom line is Thanos doesn't have Hela's healing factor. Otherwise you just keep embarrassing yourself. [/B]
Yes, he resisted the axe impaling him, then the stones damaging him while impaled.
She wears something so she is not naked thus my point is taken.
Thanos used the stones which used the most powerful display of energy in the cosmos not Surtur destiny destroying plunge.
She was oneshotted. Infinity stones are far more powerful than Surtur.
Your point is Thanos cannot counter which applies to Hela. Is her healing factor unlimited? Thanos resisted the stones used in unison whose power greatly exceeds small time Surtur.
