At least DC seems to be trying. Pretty much all the heavy hitters in the MCU are garbage.

Really nerfed. Hoping Thor: Ragnarok powers him up immensely. The end of Wonder Woman really puts her above MCU Thor imo.
Diana's powerful, yes, but she is nowhere near the caliber of Thor. One is about cosmic beings and the other focuses on planetary beings. One far outweighs the other.

Except for Christopher Reeve's Superman. This makes no logical sense what he's doing.
Reeve's (and technically Routh's) Superman was based on pre-crisis, and somehow even that is under powered compared with the BS he used to get up to.
Doctor Strange is a weird case where he's super powerful in the movie but again doesn't capture what comic Strange is capable of.

I strongly resent this outcome. Thor killed the goddamn Sentry for cryin' out loud.
Eh, I think they had a plausible reason for WW winning... with those bracelets what is Thor going to doing with Mjolinir? Hand to hand combat, Diana would curb stomp.
The only thing I can wonder is what power levels are they actually since each comic book character have those "one off feats" that just breaks comparisions like this.

For a moment he used his lightning to kill everything emerging from the portal... then he stopped to slowly hit aliens one by one.
Not Spider-Man, i believe
and yeah, movie Thor is heartbreakingly weak, especially in TDW, when in front of his goddamned DEAD MOTHER all he could do was farting out a thunder so weak he chipped a vase or something

I think without listing Thor and Wonder Woman's OP traits (their feats specifically) then you don't really have a say when you go, "Thor would win".
The video lays out what those content creator's believe is their shining achievements and weighed the strengths and weaknesses. I gotta side with Death Battle cause they bringing the receipts.

Aside from the the time reversal he really didn't do anything impressive. They were basically doing kung fu with magic frisbees coming from their hands.
To be fair, the sentry let him kill him

Spiderman doesn't get hit as hard, but they do downplay his strenght and speed. He should have taken down Giant Man by himself easy

Well that is a basic combat style that Strange has employed plenty of times before. It's an origin movie, he's clearly not meant to be anywhere close to the level he grew to over the years in the comics. His most impressive feats in the movie were a result of him using an Infinity Stone.
Only after he had already subdued Sentry and IIRC defeated him in his Void form as well.

They basically take away his spidey-sense to weaken him in the MCU.
Biggest bullshit in Spider-Man Homecoming was
Tony saying Cap could've easily beaten Spidey...foh.
Cant remember much about that, wasn't like he was sort of holding back? Ultimately,one punch from him in the face should at the very least behead a guy, superpowers or not. Havent seen Homecoming so dunno how he's portrayed there
About Thor feats: bloke withstood a full frontal attack from the Celestials basically unfazed.
The goddamned Celestials
He could have. Spider-Man gets smarter and stronger with time like everyone else. He's not on Cap's level yet and that's not about strength. We know he'll get there though.
if bob still wanted to fight him, what could thor have done? in the what if it doesnt go so well for them

I wouldn't say Peter is nerfed in Homecoming, but he certainly doesn't know how to actually fight and yeah he clearly holds back to avoid really hurting anyone. I don't think he throws a single punch in the whole movie.

Comic book super powers got to out of control. This is why I've never liked DC characters, they seem invincible and grossly over powered. I grew up adoring the xmen, where everyone just had ONE ability and they got through their struggles as a team. And then, of course the writers ended up making certain characters godly there as well. And thus I fell out of love with comic books.
Still fun to watch!

He should, but it depends on how they view the power scale in Bleach. It's harder to tell the damage being done there than in Naruto.

*Quick Google search for comic vine battles involving Ichigo and Naruto* Hm.... Most people said Naruto would destroy Ichigo.
Based on what I've seen from the anime (which isn't alot), I'm more impressed with Naruto than Ichigo even though I like Ichigo just a bit more than Naruto.

What do you mean? Entirely black two page spreads are a perfect demonstration of power!

I know exactly what story youre talking about. The one where Loki regrets his actions and uses wishing stones to power up Thor and what not. Seige on Asgard was it?
When Sentry first appeared in that story Thor was scared shitless and tried to plead with Sentry. It took a combination of things happening and Sentry mentally breaking for Thor to kill him.
Just know I love Thor and hate how weak some of these sites perceive him but the Sentry is something else completely. Sentry is completely on a different level with the only thing holding him back is his mental illness.
Edit: I mean the Sentry beat Molecule Man! Fucking Molecule Man!

Wondie's slaying though really it should be close, especially with Thor being a literal god, and not just a "daughter of a god or a demi-god". Still it's a fair fight.

That youtube comment section:
This is fresh faced can barely walk in a straight line Spider-Man, Cap would win on experience alone.

It's more likely a reference to the comic where they fought in Civil War. Cap handily knocked Spider-Man out. Spider-Man was pretty sure he could take him after seeing him fight so many times and still got worked.

Comments on the video were exactly what I expected
Pretty much.
I mean, way back they did Starscream Vs. Rainbow Dash when hating on mlp fans was all the rage.
Then i recall some transformer fans in /co/ going like, "yup, that's correct all right, starscream loses because he's starscream".
Until he revealed that he did have a contingency plan.
The magical black market
Well in that fight Spiderman was at war with himself not sure he was on the right side, even then He started overwhleming cap and cap took off leaving his shield behind

I remember the late 80s early 90s Saturday morning cartoons where the Autobots were beating the Decepticons asses so bad that at the end or the beginning of one of the episodes Megatron was telling some of his peons Decepticons that its time for him to bring in Starscream. The way Megatron describes Starscream and talked about him made me feel like oh shit! Megatron is bringing in a boss! Ever since that day because of the way Megatron spoke up Starscream hes been my favorite Transformer in all the series. I stopped watching the Transformer movies once they killed off Starscream especially the way they killed him off.

That is Cap's plot armor. Which is second one only to Batman's plot armor. Pound for pound, Peter is probably in the top 10. For deadliest people walking the planet in the Marvel universe.
With Reed Richards coming in #1
I guess it means the edge is thinner than an atom?

Young Spidey made Falcon and Bucky looks like chumps. What's that say about them then?

That they're not as popular characters.
Never understood how he manages to get tagged by anyone slower than him in a one on one fight. Spider-Sense is broken as hell.
Plus Cap gets rocked by Miles Morales in Secret Empire, so it's probably not like Peter couldn't win that fight as well.
its falcon and a constantly confused bucky
they dont let him cut loose unless hes pissed.
angry pete+spider sense+way of the spider=something fucking terrible
They chumps of the highest order.
He goes to the same Farmers market as Constantine.

I never liked these videos, they seem to just pick and choose what weapons to give the characters depending on popularity. I remember they gave Deadpool a sword that negates healing factors that he had once ever for two seconds in a non-canon AU and it ended up being the deciding factor to him beating Deathstroke.
Meanwhile they don't give Thor the Necrosword and other OP weapons? I know these videos are meant for entertainment but I see way too many people preaching the "facts" from this series as the end-all-be-all arguments for a character's capabilities.
They did do a heck of a good job on Goku v Superman tho
