That is either the worst or best break down of a fight I've ever heard.

A couple of Xanatos roulettes later, it is revealed that Metron has in fact outsmarted everyone and planned for all their actions.

And if you don't believe me, read Final Crisis.

Team 1 would at least start with the better tech, imo.

I don't think I agree.

Doom's cracked the Baxter Building's defenses before, easily, and hacked into Reed's lab which was designed specifically to keep Doom out of...in a few days' time. With the Time Cube and everything Doom has recently had on him, I'd say he's got the better starting equipment over Reed.

And Thanos' starting equipment would probably include his ship, which is pretty up there, tech-wise. Especially after Skreet's overhaul.

Someone else knows who Xanatos is? I just watched a few Gargoyles episodes.

you mean david xanatos, the human adversary in the present time.

the name xanatos is the name of the greek god of death, for whom thanos is modeled after in the eternal's mirroring of the olympians.

Yeah David Xanatos' schemes and plans were so well played and thought out that fans have come up with the term Xanatos Gambit, particularly complex plots involving large amounts of manipulation and deception by a single character. Like Xanatos rarely lost in that show, even when the Gargoyles won, Xanatos still somehow came out on top.

If TP meant the god then I guess thats what I get for assuming.

Thanos Tech can hold off Galactus for a while. Thanos ahs the best tech here and he is the smartest. Thanos solos the other team and then proceeds to make doom his pet.

YES! Somebody gets it! big grin

No no, relax. You understood the point perfectly. The Xanatos Roulette is a more insane and convoluted form of the Gambit.
http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.p...XanatosRoulette

Essentially, you have to be able to control causality, time, high end psionics, ludicrous genius or ability to predict people's actions perfectly and the plans are complex to the point of insanity or utter brilliance. Often both.
