"No shield unless it's a stomp in herc's favor.
Fight takes place in a open field."
^From OP.
And yeah, he was, though tbh that bothered the **** out of me. If Loki had not been intending to be captured all along I'd have left the theater raging assmad about that. Currently I kind of dismiss it as Loki playing down to Cap's level because he intends to be captured anyway.

I dunno, at that point he'd been beaten up by Thor, and generally been subject to so much punishment I'd handwave it as him being exhausted. But then by then he'd also ceased to be a credible threat, which is a shame, Loki is such a bawss character. Wanted more from him.
So I got a pile of dunnoes for that. Still, Cap couldn't really hurt him either. (Which is what we'd expect)

Herc in the show was throwing and breaking boulders and beating up ares god of war, taking his lightning shots to the chest. The same lightning bolts that tore threw stone walls and caused people to fly threw the air dramatically.
He pretty much called up strength when he needed it. (not to say it's a unlimited supply but he is portrayed stronger and sometimes more durable when shit gets serious than when he is toying with humans with swords) I'd take herc as a more credible threat.
Loki was talking shit like he usually does and then got owned. He was literally cheap shotted. I'm not saying the result would have been different, but it would not have been the literal stomp he got.
