I wouldn't say that Drax is more powerful than Thanos either. Do we know exactly how powerful Darkseid was at that time? What version of Darkseid was that? Darkseid has moments that he's very powerful and others when he isn't. Are you giving Orion Darkseid's feats?
Darkseid had captured The Source after a fight using soulfire to tap into the anti life entity and the souls of every new god and use its own power against it.
But The Source was prepared for this and empowered Orions soul to come back and defeat Darkseid to fulfill the prophecy. Which Darkseid didn’t see coming because he was still adapting to Omniscience and omnipotence.
Orion came with the full power and fury of the Source. As Darkseid shared the power of The Source so too did Orion.
There was a war in heaven and Darkseid fell.
He fell backwards through time and the fall damaged the multiverse as he fell from his own plane and his existence on this plane for an extended time collapsed it into a singularity.

Orion can not under any conditions unless hes amped by an outside source, beat Thanos, Gladiator, Thor, Superman, Wonder Woman, Juggernaut, Martian Manhunter, Black Adam... no high end top tier. He just ain't cutting it. Thanos crush his bones, with ease.
Orion is always in a berserk state. He takes no prisoners. When applied againstanyone other than Darkseid, he doesn't do much better than any other high end herald. Thanos took would have defeated Anni Hulk, but was tricked. Thanos crushed the Revengers and they had a Cosmic Cube helping them. Thanos took a full on assault from Omega the Galactus clone. Thanos had a gas giant explode in his face. Thanos resisted the power that would have killed mostly any character when he usurped TOAA's power. Thanos took multiple hits from Anni Hulk's battle ship which easily turned herald level characters into hamburger patties. Berserk Orion doesn't have the feats to give him the win here.
Orion was being powered directly by the supreme being to kill Darkseid.
The one that appears as Jack Kirby.
The one that created and sent Perpetua to create multiverses.
Thanos loses here.
Orion has no issues fighting, as he is a warrior, but he not always in berserker rage. That just shows how little you understand the character.

Sorry to disagree with you Stoic but Orion is not always in a berserk state, I've seen him think things out on plenty occasions with precision in battle, also many of the Thanos feats you are using here are from amped versions, I using standard Thanos here.
