Intelligence & cunning competition between Thanos and Darkseid

Text-only Version: Click HERE to see this thread with all of the graphics, features, and links.



KuRuPT Thanosi
Who wins in a test of intelligence and cunning.

First test is who would win in a test of knowledge and IQ between these two

Second test is who would come up with the better plan in a shorter amount of time to take over the galaxy or defeat an enemy

1. Thanos
2 Darkseid

panthergod
Darksied is clearly more intelligent and the superior strategist, despite the fact that he loses against a smarter heroes.

Thanos however is the superior tactician.

So Darkseid wins the first contest and Thanos the second.

Darkseid is more of a long term schemer.

Bouboumaster
Thanos wins both.

1- Thanos posses technologies that even Doctor Doom can't understand. And he's one of the few who can understand Mighty Galactus technologie. And his own is hella of spectacular itself: his shield resisted to Champion with the Power Gem, and make him survive against Galactus. Plus, he have one of the two most powerful vessel (Sanctuary, second only to TAA II)

2- Thanos again. Darkseid run after ALE, while Thanos already threaten life two times (Cosmic Cube, Infinity Gaintlet) , erase all of it one time (Heart Of The Universe), and plot to destroy it another time, but retract himself at the end (Annihlation). I think that his Curriculum Vitae prove alone that his one of the best schemer of comics.

Um, the New Gods have the superior tech. A mother box was once reprogrammed to wipe out the universe and remake it. Mother boxes can alter the scope of a being from the 4th world to the 3rd dimension. DS created a ship that even zeus was impressed by.

thanos wins both, he crushed the universe/omniverse numerous times only to be stopped by his own subconscious will.

darkseid still rules a burning shitbag.

Havent' been reading DTONG or Final Crisis have we?

psycho gundam
not final crisis, so don't spoil it. it's at issue three i believe (i have #0)

anyway, cunning is thanos's best friend, the guy turned suicidal tendanceis into banging death itself. thats quite the "before i die i want to----" feat

TricksterPriest
Countdown, Foundations, DOTNG, FC, there's a long list of Darkseid's planning.

Thanos's tech isn't anywhere near new-god level. And Darkseid has managed to use his own personal tech to do things like pierce the Source Wall.

And losing to your own subconscious will is laughable. and it's the reason Thanos is inferior. He gets ultimate power 3 times and loses it each time because of his own incompetence. Darkseid is prevented because everyone knows if he got it, he would not yield. As evidenced in FC, Darkseid is far more insidious.

so you dont think ds will eventually lose the use of the ale in the end?

Enyalus
I think that Darkseid gets the very, very slight edge in intelligence...though I could see this going either way. Superior tech doesn't equal superior IQ. New God tech > Eternal tech. Not really Thanos' fault. And doesn't Thanos use Celestial technology from time to time? That's got to be at least the equal of New Gods technology.

Second test goes to Thanos. Both are adept at coming up with cunning plans, but Thanos' plans things to get results pretty quickly, while Darkseid's plans are more long-term and far reaching. Just different styles, I would guess.

-K-M-
*Shrugs* Darkseid tech which he created very quickly actually seriouslly hurt the Source (God), created a device that can suck up all the energy of a planet, tricked the Source (several times) and Spectre

KK the Great
The problem with both is that they tend to be written by some of the least intelligent writers in the business, so their "brilliant plans" tend to be, well, pretty damn sophomoric, to put a point on it.

TheBadguy
Thanos probably wins the 1st
Thanos clearly wins the 2nd, if Thanos really wants to destroy/take over the galaxy he will. No random boy scout would stop him.

h1a8
Please read. Fangirl and K M just proved that DS easily wins the first as his tech>>>>>>>Thanos tech. Now Thanos easily wins the second IMO.

tkitna
Thanos would never allow himself to be beaten by Superman. That alone should give him the win in both scenarios.

Why wont u read the opening post, what does tech has to do with IQ and Knowledge ?

Darkseid used his intelligence to build that tech, and he has issued plans distracting the Spectre causing the Source to go insane, cutting off all the New Gods powers, etc, etc.

Astner
Sometimes simply spanking the shit out of the enemy is the best strategy. We all saw how effective Surfer's beatdown was. If Darkseid had half the IQ of Thanos he'd do the same to Superman a long time ago.

Meh, FanBoy stick out tongue

KK the Great
I'm not really sold on "New Gods have advanced tech, therefore Darkseid is more intelligent" as a sound argument.

With nothing more than the basis of the technology available to New Gods, any one of them would, but the same logic, be more intelligent than Thanos (or Reed Richards, or any other comic book genius). Is that what's being argued?

Ah, but has he ever engineered a clone of himself that was twice as powerful as Galactus? That obviously pwns DS's feat. wink

I'm taking about Death of the New gods. Let's not forget that DS knew who was killing the new gods and that thier time was up. if not for DS, there would be a fifth world of totally new beings. DS basically took the new beings power and made sure that the 4th world Gods got it.

Nihilist
as for dismissing thanos tech capabilities,thanos created the tech from scratch that held galactus prisoner also turning him into a weapon whilst draining his energy/power cosmic.

as well for knowledge he knew the inbetweeners OWN powers would not work in the nexus of reallity and that only the IB's masters (order and chaos) had allowed his power to work in his prison,some thing the IB didnt even know about his own power.

Why wouldn't we forget about Death of the New Gods?

DC certainly did.

Enyalus
Yeah, off-topic here: why did the Source look like a 1970's glittery version of the In-Betweener in DOTNGs? For a supreme being, he looked pretty lame.

That was just GOD aweful. I'm betting that isn't the source any more. DC is good for retconning Starlin's work.

But Thanos is now the consort of Death herself. cool

So, he's more intelligent, more cunning, and definitively more PIMP, because it takes a GODLY PIMP to bang Death itself.

It's a good thing there's no law against necrophilia in the MU. When he comes back, Thanos is going to have so many diseases...Rotting, dusty, skeletal vagina. Eww.

This is all rather subjective but I think Thanos' history and his feats speak for themselves. Both are very good at what they do and at the end of the day people who like Darkseid more usually will say Darkseid and the same goes for Thanos.

Thanos is currently at his Mistress death's side so I think its safe to say he is one happy camper. smile

AlmightyKfish
I'd say they're pretty equal in the first test.

In the 2nd Thanos takes it, his plans always seem to get thing's one faster than Darkseid's, as DS is more of a long term schemer

Board Walker
I lol'd at the barn scan

Allankles
DS takes the first he's a schemer who plans for the long haul as others have already stated. The second I guess goes to Thanos, but I've never been convinced by Thanos' greatest triumphs. The IG is a big plot device and taking over the cosmos in the manner Thanos has done?... Involved very little intelligence if you break it down as someone already said, some of these writers seem to be lacking intelligence so their characters grand schemes aren't all that smart.

And Thanos is more often than not a poser. DS has at least been written with some attempt at substance and not just to affect some image of "intelligence". That whole scene with Surfer seemed pretentious. He's been brought back by Death to wipe out 50% of the universe based on environmental pollution?

Really, what were the writers thinking? Darkseid in the same situation would have been trying to steal power from Death because he'd feel she doesn't know what to use her power on, spending her power on the concerns Thanos presented to Surfer would be considered an absolute waste by Darkseid. Thanos is content with being her errand boy. DS takes the first no contest, and he's inherently far more sinister than Thanos.

Darkseid would never have lost the IG not without intervention from a higher power.

thanos plays chess with the omniverse several times and only submits because he knows inside that he is a "poser".......yes, it is true, he is in fact a poser, adam warlock looked into his soul and found his true self (that is why they are "friends" (in a peculiar sort of manner)).

thanos hates being alive since he was born a mutant amongst his preceptively perfect family/race of eternals, eternal culture is that of a "us and them" society, upper and lower class. the lower is the lesser race known as the deviants, thanos has deviant physical characteristics so from birth he was looked at as a freak that couldn't be trusted. the ultimate outcast, from the age of like 6 he began to realize life was meaningless so everything he has done to this point was because he feels like shit.

thanos isn't a "true" villain, he is more of an adversary of the norm.

Mary Sue, much?

Because that's exactly what Starlin turned Thanos into by writing this. Starlin also came up with the concept of clones to explain his defeats.

I'm not sure what is more pathetic. Darkseid getting his ass beaten down by Superman, or Starlin coming up with silly excuses for Thanos' loses.

psycho gundam
it's no secret that jim starlin loves him some thanos, but writing comics is a hard business as everyone knows. they aren't short stories that start and end at a fixed duration, these things last for decades, retconnes are bound to happen. (especially with grand schemers)

Superman would do the same thing to Thanos, so I fail to see how it's a knock on DS. it's what the guy does. Thanos has never faced anyone like Superman. erm

darkseid is more intelligent than thanos infact his intellect make him a threat to the DC multiverse that why he feared. He came up with a plan to make the greek gods less powerful by spreading tale of greek gods to the roman so that the people of rome could belive in the greek gods therefore creating by avatars of themselve to be worshipped by the roman.

It's the KMCverse, so Thanos wins by default.

So? How is this relevant to the statement I had made earlier? Your point was like "to get someone like that to fall for you?" Again, how is that an example of cunning?

Funny thing is you're actually being serious. Truth be told when I quoted you initially I hadn't paid attention to the "preger" in your post, as a result I thought you were making a strong counterargument, my mistake.

Darkseid's probably driven away or gotten all his sexual partners killed.

He is as cold-hearted as it gets. I can't remember what he did to his wives but he killed his mother. I believe the only woman he ever cared for was Orion's mother, and I can't remember what happened with her.

he was in love with kalibak mother(suli). He hated orion mother(tigra) because his mother force him against his will to marry her.

even though i have all the new gods comic and the orion series i still don't understand why was darkseid force against his mother to marry tigra they did not explain the reason why.

Kalibak didn't turn out so great, maybe Suli's death had something to do with it.

He was spoon fed by TOAA, all he needed to do was follow directions.

Interesting, when the TOAA had absolutely nothing to do with Thanos acquiring the IG.

The IG retrieval wasn't anything special with regards to intellect. Neither was HOTU. Both were conveniently postitioned artifacts that just so happened to hold unlimited power. I really dislike those kind of deus ex machinas.

I feel your opinion, but I was simply stating a fact,

Most of it, a long time ago. The elders didn't even know the true nature of the gems and they are the ones that retrieved them, right? C'mon, Starlin wrote the lot of them like idiots, even the ones that appeared to have some brains like the In-betweener and the Gardener seemed to know less about their own abilities than Thanos.

Thanos quest is one of the reasons I don't much like Thanos' characterization. His playing field is much more shallow than Darkseid's, Darkseid doesn't have the privilege of clueless foes and all powerful artifacts lying about.

And to be fair I shouldn't be holding the shallowness of opposition against Thanos, that's Starlin's fault. Anyway, I just find it amusing when people keep dissing Darkseid when his actual oppostion has been much stiffer, and writers have actaully given his foes much more credit for their intelligence and initiative.

DS has to worry about a planet full of conspiring lackey's, High father and the new gens, Metron and his meddling, superman and company, the gaurdians and thier meddling, the quintessence, and more. If I were DS I'd pull my stone hair out.
