Couldn't this argument be applied to any character? ever? "The maestro hulk's accomplishments are only what the writers want it to be, so I'll just ignore them. I REALLY think the maestro hulk should only be as strong as a drunken kitten."
see how inane that argument is?
Anyway, Thanos's feats without gems and gauntlets are so far above the maestro hulk, it's disgusting. Is the maestro hulk stronger than champ with the gem? Faster than a herald? More durable than Tyrant? More powerful than a skyfather? No? he dies. painfully.

If you honestly think that Thanos would just mop the Maestro like nothing, I would say you are crazy!!!!!!!!!!!
Lets compare the two shale we?
Physical Strength
Thanos - Class 100 level. He doesn't have the ability to increase his strength. Unless he gets the IG or Lady Death helps him.
Maestro - Class 200 level, and he gets stronger the madder he gets.
Smarts
Thanos - Very, very, very smart.
Maestro - Has banner smarts who is one of the smartest humans in the world. So I would have to say he is just as smart as Thanos. Just because Thanos goes throughout the universe, doesn't mean the Maestro isn't as smart. Hell, Dr. Doom was able to out smart the "Beyonder".
Energy Blast
Thanos - Can shot blast from eyes and hands.
Maestro - Can't shot blast.
Mind Attacks
Thanos - Not prone to mind attacks.
Maestro - Not prone to mind attacks either.
Durability
Thanos - His skin in nearly invulnerable, particularly against heat, cold, electricity, radiation, toxins, aging, and disease, and he can survive indefinitely without food or water.
Maestro - Not as durable, but has a healing factor that is AWESOME!!!!.
So, to say that Thanos would just mop the floor with someone who is just as physically strong and smart. You are smoking it man.
The reason why I say you have to ignore his accomplishments, is because comic book writing is all about "MAKING MONEY".
If a new character is successful in sales, then the writing will cause this character to accomplish even more things.
I am basically going off of there abilities alone, and not what the writers want me to think.
I laugh when you think that Thanos would just mop the floor with him.
If I was Maestro and you were Thanos. You would be nuts to think that you wouldn't be in a big fight against someone who is as strong as you, and as smart as you.
Hell, the Maestro might be able to get stronger than Thanos if his raged increased.

Dude, do you know who Thanos is? No way is Banner smarter than him. Thanos has better tech than Galactus. Banner is just that, one of the smartest men on the planet but the intelligence of Thanos is huge. He has outsmarted elders that have been here for millions of years. Thanos is also not class one hundred. Who told you that? He has taken on both Champion with the power gem and thor with the power gem. Champion destroyed an entire planet with his fist. Sorry dude, Maestro is out-matched.

Wrong. There isn't even such thing as "CLASS 200" strength (Where in the hell did that come from?!), and Thanos can synthesize incalculable amounts of energy from an unknown source to augment his strength, AT WILL. You need to read up on him. People base all these stupid claims off on one measly line that Thanos said in THANOS QUEST 15 years ago. He's quite a different character now people get over it.
Thanos is one of the most intelligent beings in the universe - with all due respect to Reed and Doom, and Maestro for that matter. Thanos is well above them in intellect, cunning, and experience for that matter. What else does Thanos have to do to proved his intellectual might, do you seriously want him to destroy the universe again to prove something to the haters?!!! Let's not forget....he is an Eternal, he's said to be thousands of years old. Image what even the most dimwitted being could learn with that kind of age.
Thanos has demonstrated psionic and telepathic abilities before, he toyed with shaman Nate Grey in the Astral plane recently. This may not be much of a factor.
Anyways, this is a joke right? Almost all Eternals possess matter manipulation abilities down to the molecular level and abilities to harness energy with the slighest whim, and Thanos has THOUSANDS of years of technology and experience to back that up.
Doesn't Thanos still possess Tyrant's power bauble and the REALITY GEM? This is unconfirmed however. The point is, Maestro Hulk is cool and all, but seriously read up on Thanos and see why he is so respected. The guy really is the shit.
CLASS 200....that says it all

The Maestro was handling his own with the "Warrior Madness" Thor.
I am not saying that Thanos wouldn't win.
But I bet you he would get his azz smacked around a few times.
Heck, knowing Thanos, he might have the IG in his back pocket to win.
I am not sure which one of Thanos normal powers would Kill the Maestro.
He has been blown to bits before, and within a matter of seconds his healing factor rebuild himself.
So, I really don't think that Thanos eye and hand blast will kill the Maestro, because his healing factor would just rebuild him.
There is no way that Thanos would be able to kill him with his bare hands.
His healing factor is too damn great for that.
The only way Thanos is killing him, is to wipe him out of existence, or completely destroy his molecues so his healing factor wouldn't allow him to come back together.
The Maestro is a 7 foot 1,200 pound beast.
I really don't think Thanos is killing him with his bare hands.
So Thanos only options would be to use the IG or something on that level.
Because as far as I am concerned. You blow the Maestro to bits with a cosmic energy blast.
His healing factor would bring him back to life, and he lives to fight another day.
I could see this fight lasting a pretty long time, until one of them got some outside help.
So you are crazy to think that Thanos would just beat his azz down without a fight.
If he can kick around Thor in Warrior Madness mode.
I think he will be able to handle his own with Thanos.
Also, it's a fact that the Maestro starts off as twice the strength level as the savage hulk. The savage hulk is a class 100 level guy.
This is why I said Maestro is class 200 level even if there isn't one.

Class 100 just means 100+ tons. Besides, Thanos is way above 200 tons, so saying that would mean that Hulk would get absolutely destroyed. Also, anything the Gamma bomb can do, Thanos can do better.
Could someone tell me a little about Champion....I'm not very familiar with him and I'd like to read up on him. What issue did he fight Thanos? He sounds impressive to be able to destroy a planet with his fists....can somebody help me out with this question? Thanx...

Sounds cool...so, where is Champion now?? Is he still around? Did that happen in a comic called "Thanos Quest" or in another title? I've got all of the Infinity Gauntlet comics, but I'd never read "how" he got the Infinity Gauntlet...is Thanos Quest a limited series?

But what is Thanos going to do to him to kill him completely.
His rehealing factor will bring him back to life.
And I think we all remember the secret wars with the "Savage Hulk" right?
The savage hulk lifted a 150 billion ton mountain.
The savage hulk has alone shattered a astraroid with his bare fist.
The savage hulk has also destroyed the pit of flame.
I can't remember it's exact name.
If he is capable of doing it, then that means the Maestro is capable if the rage is great enough.
I think you guys are forgetting that the Maestro have been absorbing gamma radiation for years. So he is highly evolved then your normal hulk.
Also, of course he hasn't fought the Tyrant.
He has only been in a few comics.
The writers didn't make him a mainstream character like Thanos.
So he never had time to make any accomplishments.
It's funny how so many Vs threads are based on what the stories the writers has already created for us.
If we are going to go by with what the writers created for us, then why even have a VS board, and just let us wait for the writers to tell us who is the greatest of them all.
I am going by there abiities.
Thanos would not be able to just stop the Maestro in a physical fight like nothing. He would have to get aid from something that is not normally in his power arsenal. Such as getting the IG, help from lady death, or some type of power will would prevent The Maestor healing system to rebuild himself over and over and over again.
The Maestro is a highly advanced Hulk. His abilites are all greater then the normal Hulk.
So I don't see what Thanos would do to Maestro with his healing factor regenerating him over and over again.
If he got the UN from Galactus, then it would be over for the Maestro. But I just don't see his cosmic energy blast, physical hands or fighting skilling killing the Maestro for good.
Too many people kiss Thanos azz, because the writers make you kiss his azz. They have defined to you how great the wanted his character to be.
