MCU Thanos with 4 Infinity Stones vs These people

[k von doom]

MCU Thanos arrives on Titan however instead of being greeted by heroes, he's greeted by these five people (MCU versions), who have also wielded Infinity Stones.

Loki with Sceptre
Red Skull with Tesseract
Malekith with Aether
Ronan with Orb
Ancient One with Eye of Agamotto

This team of five is looking to either remove the gauntlet from Thanos or kill him. How does it go?

[The Drunkard Kid]

I'm not sure that Thanos can do anything to keep The Ancient One from smacking his astral form out of his body, unless he gets the chance to defend himself with the Soul Stone before she hits him (and assuming that she isn't as good as Strange was with the Time Stone and couldn't just subsequently rewind him to before he defended himself with the Soul Stone).

Also, the one time that Red Skull tried to use the Tesseract directly instead of as just a power source for his weapons, it resulted in him accidentally dumping himself on another planet and leaving the Tesseract behind, so...

ALSO also, does Malekith get spotted the power boost of the conjunction that turned him into a Thor-level brick who was en route to snuffing out all light in the universe?

[k von doom]

I guess, at the bell Red Skull is immediately KO'd leaving the tesseract on the ground.

Did Malekith get a boost from the Convergence? I'd always thought that was just the Aether powering him up.

Ya that was just the aether.

What's the Soul Stone gonna do to defend thanos? That thing has next to no showings.

[The Watcher]

While Thanos is being kept busy by the others, the Ancient One uses the Eye of Agamotto to turn him into an infant. She then takes the Gauntlet off of his undersized hand.

Later on she gives baby Thanos to Rhodey.

In not sure that it had *any* actual showings, other than preventing its sacrifice from being resurrected, even by the full Infinity Gauntlet. But if anything could possibly keep someone's soul/astral form from being effected by someone trying to shove it out, it would be the thing that prevents souls from being effected by the full might of the Infinity Gauntlet.

Also, I stand corrected on Malekith and the Aether. Did he have any Black Hole Grenades?

He had at least 1 grenade. Used it on Odins throne.

The soul stone also helped Thanos identify which clone was the real Strange.

In theory sure but on CBR it can only do what it's been shown to do (we can do a bit of assuming with in reason) anything else is just guessing.

I'm pretty sure he grabbed that one off a random dark elf.

the soul stone should be able to be used by thanos to rip out the souls of the others expect for the ancient one who may be able to return to her own body like strange was able to do so when thanos slammed him out of his body unlike the others who don't have any such ethereal showings.

Again in theory it can do that but it's never showed it can do anything like that in any of the movies so we just can't handwave it soul rip power the only thing it can really do is identify a real person possible pervert someone being brought back to life and giveing redskull ghost like powers? As the stonekeeper.

[k von doom]

It's strange that the space stone banished Red Skull to guard the soul stone. And who was guarding the soul stone before WW2?

[theoneandonly]

doubt whether the stone actually required guarding as it was concealed within the shrine. the red skull was there more to warn people of the cost of gaining the soul stone and how to go about getting it than guarding the stone as it had gone without a guardian till he arrived just fine.

It was just strange, as though the space stone said "Hey the soul stone needs a guardian so off you go" - as opposed to being transported somewhere random. And if people somehow managed to locate the soul stone, before the Red Skull got there they'd be left scratching their heads as to how to get it?
