None of the Guardians is capable of hanging with Sinestro. Also, the Engines were there and Magus was using them, that's how he could compete with a cosmic cube.
They used the death forged blade of Oblivion so yes with that they would be. Magus even while weakened easily was whooping them. Sinestro was getting his a-- d by just Mongul.
I'm thinking that Hal would be taking on Magus in this case, because Warlocks hue would most likely give him fits. If this is the case, I give a slight edge to team 2.
I find it lame that you try to pass Sinistro's fight with Mongul as if it was a low showing, that version of Mongul did more than unamped Magus during all his run, and didn't actually beat Sinistro. In the other hand, the Yellow Lantern trashed the Weaponer who stomped several lanterns without a problem.
Also, lol at the sword argument, that blade didn't do anything worth of notice, Hal is head and shoulders above the GotG in a battle that Magus may have been amped. Bottomline, you cannot prove he can handle with GLs.
No way could Mongul beat Magus. Magus was too sly and too smart he even fooled a cc user while weakened. The guy was just too much and too crafty with his magic to be directly killed by any gl ring user.
Magus was weakened after he sealed the fault it was stated in the comic. Mongul crushing Sinestro doesn't help your case and Hal is definitely beatable.
Sinestro actually beat Mongul, Mongul went against several lanterns and Ion, he's no pushover, you're trying to make him sound weak but he's stronger than [¡]anyone Magus ever fought[/i], which is everything that matters here. Sinestro has beat better than Magus, that's a fact.
Also, Steve Rogers has fought CCusers with better cubes and more experience than Starlord. Try to push Magus's feats all you want, hiding won't make him win here -and there won't be Faith Engines for back up either-.
Sinestro only beat him because he had complete control over his rings which is only exclusive to that situation. Who has Sinestro beaten superior to Magus ?
Steve Rogers can't resist the cc powers or fake his own death. So wrong once again, bucko. Context.
I'm simply pointing out that tricking a CC user is not much of a big deal as you try to put it, you're trying to make Magus sound more impressive than he was.
Sinestro beat the Weaponer and Kyle, that's more than Magus ever did.
