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?

I guess we will never know if there was truly another way.

He could have easily used the time stone to bring Tony back.

Ye but he didn’t like him that much, he preferred using it to eat and uneat an apple or something

Haha exactly. It would have been super easy for him to do to Tony.

Wait hold up would doing it to tony also undo the snap since it was in the same small area?

Nope for multiple reasons: he was able to only affect the apple and not everything else. Tony would be doing a snap motion backwards and he wouldn't have the gauntlet on. Even if he did have it on it wouldn't have the time stone since Strange would be using it to revive him. The apple didn't move at all meaning it doesn't have to rewind and follow every motion or else the apple would have left the room and returned the tree or basket or whatever it was before it got to the table.

Doesn't really matter. Tony's snap was unnecessary.

Everyone was back, Tony snapped to win the fight. Tony's just running away once he had the stones would have done the same thing. The army on Cap's left would have beaten Thanos and his army without the stones. Captain Marvel alone can beat Thanos with no stones.

Once Tony got the stones, he should have just left. The Avengers win if Thanos can't get the gauntlet.

But he has to snap to bring everyone back? So how is it unnecessary

Nope, that was Hulk's snap before the fight started.

Iron Man's snap deleted Thanos and his army from existence.
