How does Thanos do against Odin's near-equal, the Serpent?

Feat-wise, what's the Serpent done? I know it straight up shattered Cap's shield, but not sure about the rest.

Serpent wins here, though, if the "near equal to Odin" deal holds true.

Bfr'd Thor with a single blast, owned Avengers with a ground pound.

He empowered the Worthy Hammers.

Going by implied power, Serpent no question! But it's still way too early!

fear itself 4....? casually blasted him through a portal across the world--or, mostly across the world....

Yep, it was FI #4.

Serpent

caps shield is more durable than thanos, he would shatter thanos easier than he did the shield

I'll go for the classic villain as opposed to the guy we probably won't remember 5 years from now.

I also think that Thanos can win.

Never heard of him.

BUT HE DESTROYED THINGS!!!! LOTS OF THINGS!!!!

So Doctor Octopus and Green Goblin would also beat the Serpent? After all, we'll remember them long after the Serpent is forgotten.

Good logic.

You know, it's Marvel's stupidity on display here. Think about it. You have a character named "The Serpent" imprisoned at the bottom of the Ocean, his sigil is a Snake, he created 7 hammers for 7 Worthy. They could have just made it that "The Serpent" was Set and it would have tied in nicely to that Secret Avengers arc last year. But NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. Oh well. Like you guys said, he'll be another Chaos King.

Back on topic, Serpent wins.

tHAnos wins he cant be killed ko'ed has force block thaNOS cn kill unkkillables death IS hsis GIRLFIRND thanos mindrape the serpent has shiels powr up beat the MAKER infinite power so THANOs pwer moore infinte

thanOS 10/10

Why didn't Thor just teleport back?

Hulk and Thing were there, he chose to fight them.

Thanos wins.

Serpent wins.

Thanos loses.

Not Thanos.

How does the Serpent win ?

How doesn't he win?

How doesn't he win? Thanos is more powerful and is unkillable. What has the Serpent done to prove he can take Thanos ?

He has broken Cap's shield with force (something Thanos could never do), empowered the Worthy, and his presence has sent Odin into panic mode. Meanwhile, Odin puts Thanos away without breathing hard.

Thanos is way overrated. His entire claim to fame is standing up to an Odin who wasn't going all-out, with heavy assistance from tech and an outside power source.

Ko is enough for a win.

Ko is enough for a win. Does he have a cc on him and is Thanos naked ?

Serpents simple flinch destruction of Cap's shield shows he has the means to physically put the hurt on Thanos.

And his teleportation of Thor into NY means the Serpent can easily BFR Thanos.

The guy has particle manip feats as well. He willed a flying kingdom into existence.

He's already too much but by the prophecies say Thor is his Kryptonite like Drax is Thanos'. Thor will put him down and everybody will say it was too easy.

But I reckon Serpent takes this. Especially since he hasn't even reached his peak yet. He still can spread his fear to many worlds, galaxies and dimensions. By then he would be unstoppable. Odin is right to want to burn the Earth.

The Serpent wins.

Killing him.
How ? He couldn't even scratch Odin who wasn't even trying. The Serpent is written to be at least as powerful, and much more vicious.

Odin beat him. He also says "deal with it".

He kept stopping, giving Thanos chances to yield. If Odin wanted Thanos dead, he'd be dead. Or at the very least he wouldn't keep giving him chances.

Thanos is a beast, and he defended Odin's attacks far better than many anticipated, but let's not go overboard and say it was a stalemate, and that Odin was going for the kill....

He admitted on panel he was trying to make him stop breathing aka kill him. He gave him a chance after he already thought he defeated/killed him due to his respect as a warrior to yield. This is all supported in the comic and this really has nothing to do with current Thanos and I don't want it to bog down the thread with another Thanos/Odin debate.

Thanos looks defeated to me; he just had too much pride to admit it...

Thanos is closer to Worthy level than Serpent level.

Thanos is closer to Worthy level than Serpent level. Based on ?

Based on Thanos' power level. He's well above top tier, but well below Skyfather. Sorry to break it to you.

The Serpent seems like a high skyfather. But feats are lacking.

If the Serpent is as power as he seems then Thanos is out of his weight class here.

Thanos was augmented, and Odin wasn't going full-bore. And I'm not downplaying Thanos' durability. He's a tough nut to crack.

Thanos was tapping into an additional 'science-based' power source. Odin was not trying to kill Thanos. He was trying to get him to submit. Odin kept turning up the gain, but was not unleashing his full power.

Thanos' might has always been scientifically acquired on top of everything else so that's no different than Iron Man using his suit.

"I'll stop smashing your face in" is not the same thing as it being a stalemate, but...

What Bada said, anyway...

Thanos survived Odins wrath, ok he was far away from winning but it was very impressive. The Serpent hasn't fought Odin yet, let's see how he will be defeated, though I'm sure he will.

I will side with Thanos till then.

What Bada said, anyway... Well, a battle with no winner with Thanos on the losing end as to what we saw but he had more gas left in the tank.

I feel like these Serpent threads really can't pan out until we see him defeated or the story ends.
