Thanos can tank even Black Hole. But they do have Vulcan. And Juggernaut would give Thanos a run for his money in the physical department. Especially when there isn't any BFR.

If Juggernaut doesn't have shields, he's very likely going to get the snot beat out of him. but he luckily has teammates here.

Close match, but Thanos in my opinion.

These guys can't really do much to him with their "average hits", so unless the team is going all out then there's nothing that's stopping Thanos from absorbing their hits and dishing out more than they can handle.

Thanos would have to go physical the entire time. Any blast Thanos use would be used against him by Vulcan and yes, Vulcan has the fts proving this. Hell, Thanos just being there would probably make Vulcan more powerful since Thanos is a professional at using and dishing out energy attacks. Vulcan also has the option of attacking Thanos internally. Let's put it like this...Vulcan is the best energy manipulator in Marvel from what I've seen. To the point that he was able to absorb 'black bolts scream directly in the face'. Hell, he even matched Havok power 'after Havok fed on a STAR'. Like I've said, based off fts, Vulcan is dangerous, very dangerous.

Wait a minute...did you not see the entire fight with Gladiator. He took on the entirety of the Shiar and was killing them one at a time. Gladiator used some kind of unstoppable power to bypass Vulcan energy blast. Something Thanos doesn't have here. I can easily do what you did. Let's not go there.

No one is saying Vulcan is soloing, but, in this match, he can easily turn the tide in the team favor. Anyways, I have no quads with anyone choosing Thanos but the team will give him a fight.

Thanos is above Herald level. I don't think Vulcan would beat Thanos alone but him being there is a huge issue imo. Thanos can NOT use any energy attacks in this battle or it could be his downfall.

He didn't absorb the scream. He got reduced to a skeleton then regenerated back.

U have no idea what you're talking about. Vulcan is not the best energy manipulator. The imperial guard is nothing save for gladiator. And thanos faces a far superior energy manipulator all the time and casually owns him. Read more comics.

SMDH...controlling energy, all forms, is Vulcan Forte. Thanos using any type of energy attack during this battle would result in his loss. The guy toyed with the energy from a guy that was pulling power from billions (or millions, cant remember) of aliens. He did it easily.

Lol...so him running through the imperial guard isn't impressive. Sin...I'm trying not to pull out these recent Thanos showings but you are literally over hyping him right now. Stop it.

What showings? U mean his last event? You're not proving anything. I read marvel all the time. I know his feats. Tell me. What's the best energy manipulation feat that Vulcan has that makes you believe he can overcome a low skyfather

Do I need to post some Nova showings as well? Thanos is trans tier. He is not a low Skyfather. An argument can be made for him possibly beating this team but I can see the team winning as well. Did you see their fight against the Ravengers? Thanos and Nova?

I don't personally think Thanos is low skyfather either. But this discussion seems to be more about definitions than an overall powerlevel.

A case can be argued that he is. The term is purely cosmetic from high trans anyway. If you favor him as i do you'd be more inclined to raise his stock a tad. Given what he's capable of id place him as the pinnacle of the trans tier. With the ability to eclipse it when pushed. Just like surfer or Thor or superman with herald and iron man with high meta.

A Havok that absorbed a star. When were the other times Havok beat him 'without context'?

The context is that havok used firepower that is less than what Thanos has at his disposal.

He used the power of a star or the power of a hodunn, that's significantly less than Thanos' output.

That other poster got it wrong though. Thanos was punched by a depleted cube and got up smiling. There was no sign of damage, at all, unless someone can prove it.

Make a thread. Would this damage a skyfather.

A Hodinn is a small sentient star. Like G-Type and the member of Vulcan's personal imperial guard.

They are roughly around low/mid herald.

That is what Havok absorbed the second time he took out Vulcan.

We don't know where that star put Havok though. All we know is, it gave him enough power to handle Vulcan which is a huge showing on its own.

Actually, nvm the order.

I was thinking of the third time.

The first time Havok wasn't the one who beat Vulcan, it was Polaris. She also used energy to beat him.

Then Havok absorbed power from a star (not an entire star).

The third time Havok absorbed power from a Hodinn (miniature star).

carver9
Cosmic Cube...

It is broken...pretty much spent.

Anyways, it's just a cosmic paper weight now.

http://static.comicvine.com/uploads/original/2/27500/1516756-25_guardians_of_the_galaxy_v2__25___page_23.jpg

This is what was said about the cube before we see Thanos and Richie in the undead Universe facing Thanos.

http://static.comicvine.com/uploads/original/2/27500/1516740-the_thanos_imperative__6___page_18.jpg

Confirmation that the cube is still jacked up. "The cube still have a shot or two left". So again, it having any type of weakness towards his durability when overall it was near depletion is laughable.

Yes, obviously regular Havok is not beating him, as Vulcan is immune to his powers....

The point is that regular energy attacks still hurt him. Phoenix could still hold him in place.

Agreed? Vulcan doesn't stand a chance against Thanos one on one. My post was focused on him being a side distraction. Using Thanos own energy blasts against him while the team face Thanos physically both energy output and h2h.

Seems unlikely considering that Thanos is more intelligent, a better fighter and probably has superior energy control.

Sin I AM
Why are you spamming the thread with something that isn't relevant. Noones in possession of a cube here. Malfunctioning or not it's still a cube. Cubes (classic anyway) are above skyfathers but below abstracts so I'd say Galactus level or slightly below celestials imo not sure exactly what you're trying to prove.

DarkSaint85
Also, BFR may be off, but there's nothing from stopping Thanos from sending them all away.

They can make their own way back to the battlefield, under their own power, so no BFR. But they wouldn't all be on the field at the same time.

So send them all different distances away. Doom is the first to show up (for example). He's taken out, just in time for Loki etc etc.

So not a group battle, but a gauntlet. Vulcan would be first back on the field, charging in, screaming, as he always does. As per Carver's post, he wouldn't stand a chance one on one.

Havok can do crazy stuff absorbing regular energies, even those that can't hurt anyone in normal conditions. From there it's pretty likely that him absorbing a star would allow him to output much more energy than a single star of the same caliber could ever output.

That was a fist fight between Drax and Thanos, had nothing to do with weakness exploiting. There has been times where Thanos curbed Drax in h2h combat.

What weakened Thanos? Educate me. I don't mind admitting I'm wrong.

Like I've said before, Thanos could wins this but anyone voting for the team, I do not fault them.

Which is the reason I posted the scans of the cosmic cube because what happened before that is Thanos being punched in the face with the cube (that he shrugged off). You ignored my scans because you didn't like it. Oh well. Why continue Sin? Let's just bring this to a stalemate. I don't have any issues with you thinking Thanos wins this. I just want that email address for right now. I care little about this thread.

Which scans did i ignore? The gladiator ones, probably because he isnt in this fight. The cube ones? Definitely because noone here has cube level powers. The Vulcan scans, definitely because he's never displayed that level of energy manipulation.

OK. How much weaker were the blasts from the CC? Does it's level of depletion affect the blast strength?

IOW, is it like a balloon - the less air in there, the lower the pressure, or is it like a gun, where the amount of bullets make no difference to whether it would kill me or not, as long as it can still fire?

Serious question, btw. Have no idea about CCs apart from them being super powerful.

Yeah, which is what I am asking.

Is it like a weakened Hulk, or a depleted gun? You're not answering the question.

But to answer your question, it would be weaker. Whether your analogy is then applicable, I do not know.

Why would a near depleted cube pack the same amount of power as a full powered cube would pack? This isn't bullets we are talking about. This is energy.

Carver, When you look at Thanos' history.. it obviously did have quite a bit of power left in it. He's taken full blasts from Surfer and smiled like a kid at Christmas. He's rarely been KO'd via energy blasts in his entire history...So considering he's taken blasts from Galactus... Omega... Odin... Walker... along with many many others and not been KO'd... I think it's safe to say that Cube had quite the pop.

Everything you said is trans level fts. He was dropped by Omega though and had his shields up against Galactus. To king Surfer attack is trans level.

I wasn't even talking about the Skyfather vs. Trans argument with my post... I was talking about you saying the cube had hardly anything left in it... I then cited numerous incidents that haven't KO'd Thanos.. Including those I listed... His own Doppleganger... Magus with an incomplete IG smacked him and he wasn't KO'd... Incidents and incidents where he is not KO'd and yet this cube briefly KO'd him.. clearly it had some pop left in it.

Nobody said the cube was weak though. Of course it would have some juice left because we seen it but it was not at full power. Not even close. Hell, at one point it looked as if there wasn't any power in it at all.

OK.

Can a car with less fuel go as fast as a car with a full tank?

Sigh. Dark, you ARE my favorite KMC person but you are driving me insane with these real life question.

Same analogy, surely?

One car has less fuel (i.e. energy) in the tank.

The amount it outputs at any one time (i.e the rate) does not depend on how much energy is left.

Can both cars go at 60mph (assuming of course the weight difference is minimal)? What if car A has 50% of car B's fuel levels? Does that mean car A is 50% slower?

Anyways, it's just a cosmic paper weight now.

This is what was said about the cube before we see Thanos and Richie in the undead Universe facing Thanos.

Confirmation that the cube is still jacked up. "The cube still have a shot or two left". So again, it having any type of weakness towards his durability when overall it was near depletion is laughable.

"It was broken, pretty much SPENT. Enough for one last ZAP".

"It's pretty much a paper weight now".

"That cosmic cube still works? Might be good for one last shot".

Think this is on point with the power output. Especially the first two scans.

Is a car that's 50% empty slower than a car with a full tank?

Nope. What's the point of the question?

When has it ever been stated that a cube loses its potency after expanding power/energy

Never

well, we know it WAS depleted. i'm sort of siding with carv in this one. imo, the cube was 'lessened'. obviously (as can be seen by the discussion) that might mean that it can still attack at full force but for only a ltd time, or it might mean it can NOT attack at full force at all. i'm of the opinion it was intended to be the latter just from the way the cube was depicted and discussed. just how much power can even a 'lessened' cube unleash? well, again, that's purely opinion based. i'd say.....quite a lot, clearly. was it a trans-level blast? skyfather-level blast? seems pedantic to try and label it that way and any attempt to do so would only be speculatory. if i were forced to pick, i'd say it was a blast on the level of thanos himself, for whatever that's worth.....

and the love affair between carver and ds is sickening me. watch your back ds, i know a certain irish mod who may have his green eyes on you. sneer

Sup Big Leo... A fair post as usual buddy. My only comment would be that I've never seen it stated that a depleted cube couldn't unleash a blast as powerful as a full one. I believe it just can't do it for as long. That's just my thought

huh? herlad level? only i guess if you think thanos himself is herald level. the cube was lessened. the effect of said lessening is up to you. i think it's a bit silly to assume it could reach the same level of power as it could were it a full strength cube, but......that could be blissful thinking. wink

yo,

i have no problem with you thinking that. just doesn't make sense to me. all the support in the book indicates it was a weakened cube. we know a full strength cube's power--it's one of the most powerful artifacts in marvel. it made thanos eternity at one point. so you think the cube was capable of unleashing an eternity level blast? sorry my man, not buying that at all. if you think it WASN'T an eternity level blast, then you're also suggesting it was weakened and incapable of unleashing its power at full capacity--or that quill, what? held back? also not indicated at all.

you of course can believe what you'd like, but based on everything in the book, and the history of full power cubes, not sure how you conclude that was a full power blast from a weapon that made thanos eternity.

You don't think its skyfather or above. We've seen him tank trans tier attacks and not get koed or killed.

It's pretty clear how powerful that cube was when the writers had Thanos easily chump Lord marvell who was empoweredby the Cancerverse gods , it was the same guys that wrote the cube scans carver posted.

Leo...I just want you to know that you and Dark are tied for my numero uno. I think we should do a group hug. Dark already sent me a message saying is ok with that.

after saying i didn't really want to guess at the level, i suggested it might be a blast was on the level of thanos himself, but that's pure speculation, which i fully admit to. clearly i hope we all agree it wasn't eternity level..... if that's true than by default it was less than full capacity--or quill held back. i'll go with the former in this case.

No my good man, on the contrary, I'm simply suggesting that it could unleash just as powerful a blast but not for nearly as long or do nearly as many things shall we say. For example.. Let's say it wanted to destroy the Milky Way Galaxy... A full cube could unleash enough power to get the job done.. Where a non full powered cube could initial release the necessary energies to take out the Milky Way but not have enough Juice to fully get the job done.

No, I don't think it was a Eternity Level blast buddy, and don't remember saying that in the least. What I am saying is, there isn't a single source that I know of saying that a less than full cube couldn't release the same as a full one. If you know of a source please post it.

In the end as you say, it's nearly impossible to tell how powerful the blast was or how much power was left in the cube. It's this is basically a futile argument in the end. My only point is, that there is nothing to suggest that a full powered cube could've released a more potent blast than that cube. For all we know, considering its operator.. that was the best he could do full cube or not. There is just no way to know.

Not even sure y the cube is being discussed since even combined none here rival it's power

carver9
What do we have here? We have Quill saying that the Cube is depleted with enough energy to blast twice. Not only that. The writer threw at us where the power level of this cube was. Quill had enough juice to fire two full blast from this cube. He used the cube on Thanos once. Then it was used repeatedly in the undying universe. Now, this takes a little thinking. Since we know the cube was near depleted and had enough juice for two blasts, did Quill use the full power of the cube when he blasts Thanos the first time? If so, what about all of the other times it was used after this? We have full on confirmation that it's depleted. Proof that it wasn't at full power. Proof that it was used more than once. With that said, what proof is there that Quill put all of the juice in one attack since we all know it was near depletion? The proof goes against this. Two full attacks is what the writer told us. We get more than this. The full power of the cube that was left over wasn't being used.

That cube had enough power to disintegrate Thanos with a blast. That's something Odin, a well-fed angry Galactus and Omega couldn't accomplish.
