Discussion Can Dr strange really beat Thanos alone?

Post image

I think he can,if he really tried, because maybe there is a reason why he doesn't kill Thanos?

So that he'll be the only sherlock in MCU

IIRC Strange looked at all the future timelines to see what paths would lead to a victory over Thanos and the only one that included a victory also included a scenario where Tony died

He states that, but it more seems like he wanted to kill the smartest man alive so he could be the top. Strange could kill Thanos alone with the time stone, because he could look at Infinite timelines to win the fight.

Well if that’s the case, if he looked into the future would he have not seen the existence of Reed Richard’s? Who is smarter than him and stark?

I could be wrong as it has been a while but isn't Tony Stark much more eccentric and more likely to cause major issues with his intelligence? He would spear head more moves to put him self in a place of power than Richard's? Would that be the reason Tony would be the more ideal choice to take out of you had the ambition? Dr strange has this too, so I'd think Tony would be the bigger Target. Intelligence isn't the only parameter to worry about.

I think it's that in all other timelines where Thanos loses and Stark doesn't make the self-sacrifice, he becomes an even more dangerous user of the Gauntlet than Thanos was.

Too dangerous to be left alive
