He couldnt beat him without the power gem. People underestimate the power gem because it was mainly with tards. Champion and Drax comes to mind.
Thanos stood his ground and met Thor head on while a team of badasses were getting thrown around. He was doing fine but would have ran out of gas against the power gem.
Well ok it does state that in his bio. I know bios can be wrong but you they usually get stats wrong, not stuff like this. Its like alot of skyftahre level beings are less powerful outside their dimension Dorammu, Mephisto etc etc. Its like reality works differently in there dimension so when they come to earth they are slightly less powerful.
Its probably a transliteration anyway. I think its Asa-gard anyway, but meh obvoulsy the word is from old norse so it could have been spelt different in the original language. Ive seen some text with Thors name written as Porr.
You sure, I thought they didnt cross the bridge until he got blasted with gungnir.
True. Remember though Thanos did ask Surfer to back him up and this was before Odin got out Gungnir.
I mean I kinda interpreted Odin using Gungnir as him wanting the finish the job more quickly, he still could have won but he wanted to do it with less fuss. To be fair Odin was suprised at Thanos's strength but he never seemed stressed out.
I personally think Odin jobbed a bit. The only thing I can say is that if outside Asagard he was able to take on the combined assault of Thanos and SS then it could have been argued he would have won in the end.
Then again Odin is supposed to be less powerful outside Asagard, that could make him sub-skyfather? So outside Asagard it could be a 5/5 split.

You do realize what you just said, right? You're arguing that Thanos couldn't have beaten Thor because he was wearing the Power Gem. Yet, you just stated that Thor beat Drax with the Power Gem. So, it's possible for Thor to do it but not Thanos?
Thanos absorbs Damage better than most Physical beings. If Thanos can soak up Odin's vast power output w/in Asgard, add to that Thanos holds true to himself no matter his location, and you have an equation for Odin's possible defeat or at least stalemate.
Seeing as Odin was barely using a fraction of his power against Thanos, I'd say that even outside Asgard he'd win.

Where in the book did it say he needed to use gungnir?
Edit: We have seen fights where Odin's using most/all of his power and doing so was effecting an entire galaxy.

Or more likely, he either wasn't using most of his power or it's a very low showing. Seeing as Odin has displayed galaxy level power more than once.

There was no mention of galaxy level force(which Odin has been shown capable of) being used in the Thanos fight, which means 1) Odin was holding back 2) Very low showing or 3) PIS.
Take your pick.

Again, Odin has already proven to be able to affect galaxies as a side effect of his battles when using all/most of his power. IOW, the Odin vs Thanos fight is an example of either 1)Odin holding back 2) Low showing or 3)PIS.
