He didn't almost beat him to death, he actually did beat him to death (7 punches total I think). He did that with his bare hands, without resorting to weapon like an indestructible magic hammer enchanted by the most powerful Skyfather in Marvel.

I'll admit that Thor would do a lot better that Surfer againt Thanos, but it doesn't change jack shit on the fact that at the end, Thanos spank that ass.
That wasn't Thanos but a more powerful clone.
a 100 times more powerful blast should rival a Galactus blast and we all know that Thanos can't stand up to Galactus blasts without his shields.
Thor showed that he can absorb multi-directional blasts.
I don't think its hyperbole, considering Thor earlier tried multiple hammer blasts on Thanos without it even making him flinch. Multiplying the blast power by a hundred and sending Thanos flying and stunning him momentarily is not far off, since Thor's initial regular blast did literally nothing to Thanos.
Again, so Thor has never been stated to be holding back when he's met thanos..... Thanos has beaten Thor every time they have met and never lost to him yet... That pretty much puts and end to this thread. Thanks
So 25 Thanos's blasting a lone Thanos wouldnt do much to him!? So I guess 10 Thanos's blasting a lone Thanos wouldnt even register to the lone Thanos...
Thats garbage and you know it...
I say again, no way in hell is Thanos casually tanking a blast 100 times stronger than his own; Thors statement was definitely hyperbole...
Unfortunately for you it happened in the comic. It was stated that the power was increased one-hundred fold, and had to power to ravage a planet. You not agreeing with what happened in the comic doesn't change anything.
Also Thanos didn't take it casually, it sent him flying and stunned him momentarily, but he didn't get any lasting injuries from it. This isn't hard to believe considering his prolonged fight with Odin didn't give him lasting injuries either.
*edit: I also think you're making the mistake of assuming Thanos' blasts are = to his durability. If anything, his durability is much greater than his power-output and that's why he was able to take the re-directed blast.

So do you believe hyperbolic statements never appear in comicbooks?
So you believe 10 Thanos's blasting a lone Thanos would do nothing to him at all? Evidently you do as you seemingly believe that a blast 100 times stronger than Thanos's own, the Anti-Force, and Thors cosmic storm is only capable of stunning and sending him flying...
Could 25 Thanos's bulge a lone Thanos with energy blasts then?
Dude...common sense...Thors statement has hyperbole written all over it.
And lets assume you are correct and it wasnt hyperbole...
How powerful does that make The Makers initial attack against Thanos!? You know, the one that one-shot-KO'ed him? Was that attack millions (or maybe even billions) of times stronger than Thanos's energy blasts?
See where this leads if you really believe that attack was 100 times stronger than Thanos's blast?
Well to be honest I actually don't believe Thor has the ability to walk around absorbing blasts, multiplying them one-hundred fold, and sending them back to anyone he wants. If he could do that he'd beat just about anyone. If you're going to accept the blast wasn't one-hundred times powerful, you also have to accept that Thor's ability to multiply the blast by one-hundred are hyperbole too.
But the main point of my original post was to illustrate that the tactic of absorbing Thanos' blast, multiplying it, and sending it back to him was already done in the comics, and it failed. So using the tactic here would likely have the same results.
I don't actually think it was 100x more powerful. I don't think you can really quantify these things in comics, but the least you can say is that the blast was extremely powerful.
But like I said, if Thor were to use the same tactic in this forum fight against Thanos, it would likely fail like it failed in the comic.
