When it comes to physical stats, Gru takes it. He's faster, stronger, and more durable. Megamind has better tech, though. He's got more options to win this fight (turn him into a cube, use the sun death ray, etc.), so my vote is on Megamind. Megamind has also kept up with a bloodthristy Tighten, who is stronger than all of the major villians from the Despicable Me franchise in my opinion.

[@jadenmcmillan4306]

Megamind probaly has good reaction speed. He was able to see metro mans capsule when they escaped a black hole. 6ou need to go faster than light to escape a black hole.

[@ComicalRealm]

Fun fact: The film Megamind was going to be titled "Oobermind", which was a misspelling of the term "über-mind." The word "über" refers to something that is large or great; in this case, the title character's over-swollen skull/brain. But it didn't sound right, so it was revised to become "Megamind".

Gru has the physical prowess and more wild inventions, but Megamind has more financial backing and a bigger scope in weaponry. Megamind is physically weaker, but he fought two superhumans for years, while Gru financially struggles to support his ventures against other supervillains.

@Singularity to be fair, Tighten was already partially levitating, though he does have thick skin, Gru has been through more physical feats.

[@jadenmckinney3489]

I definitely say Megamind. While Gru is quite impressive himself, he's never went toe-to-toe with people like Metro Man, in which I know Megamind never won, but his genius tactic when he defeated titan? Gru isn't that as good as Megamind, while Gru is a former villain, and knows some type of Martial Arts, Megamind genius would probably win against Gru

[@jadenmckinney3489]

@Broma cibernética Oh yeah 😂😂😂

[@jadenmckinney3489]

@Broma cibernética I do have to acknowledge that is true 😂😂😂

[@bruhmoment6014]

Megamind's D-Ray has different modes as well. The death ray would instantly kill gru. Megamind also can disguise as anything and anyone and hide from gru if he needs to. While gru's heist suit has camo, gru isn't always wearing it where megamind is always wearing his watch. Megamind's robots can be summons from anywhere at anytime and provide him with almost any of his tech, including the suit that matches all of the powers of Metro man and his strength. Gru won't be able to summon his minions quickly, and even if they could, they wouldn't be much help. Gru can avoid missiles, but he isn't light speed, which means Megamind's laser eyes he has in his superman suit would fry gru. Megamind is also much smarter and a faster thinker than gru. He also has better tech and weapons. Megamind wins.

[@jadenmckinney3489]

@@bruhmoment6014 good explanation

[@nuhscott9058]

@Broma cibernética hey buddy here's how it goes. Strength does to gru. He one shot a shark which no regular human can do while megamind never shown anything beyond human level Speed. Hard to say. Gru can dodge missiles while megamind can go against characters like titan and metro man who are massively hypersonic to massively faster than light and yeah he's obviously no where near as fast as them he can avoid their attacks for awhile. So I say this is a tie or it goes to megamind Durability. Hard to say. Yeah gru survive those missiles but the hole it made doesn't look bigger than a regular house while megamind survive being close to a huge gasoline explosion, getting crushed by a giant robot and many heavy punches from titan (who can lift and throw skyscrapers with ease). So physically neither can put down the other and that leaves weapons. With The weapons both normally carry lets see how they face up. Gru has his freeze ray and fire ball gun. I don't the fire ball gun putting down megamind, the damage that it did doesn't look strong enough. His freeze ray can end the fight but it's not a full guarantee because the ice can be broken just by falling over. Megamind has his de-gun which has many different setting but the main win we see him use in dehydration which turns it's victims into a dehydrated cube that can only turn back to normal with contact with water. So one shot of this and it over. In the end this will be close but I give the win to megamind

[@lunaristhomsen6941]

Gruu can freeze a guy. Megamind can turn you into a cube. Megamind's minions have metal jaws, can fly and he has enough to project (not with holograms but with just the light up eyes of his bots) his head in the sky to 100 times its actual scale. Mega mind has been tussling with a superman level hero since he was in kindergarten. Even taking into account that he's a complete doof, he still had minion who although just as much a doof, still notices flaws in his plans. Megamind also was able to reverse engineer a super power serum capable of giving a person superman level powers, and btw he seemed to still have it by the end of the movie. Gruu shrunk the moon with a gun he didn't even build. It's megamind all the way

[@jeom3808]

I think Megamind can improvise better on the spot, Gru needs the "emotional" buffs most of the time as well as rely on other's inventions. (megamind can make his own inventions for each situation). 100% would like a better analysis/discussion of these two and their abilities (some of the megamind stuff was a little too simplified or ommitted some key details)

I always got the feeling that not only was Metro Man always going easy on Megamind because he wanted to put on a good show, but also that Titan wasn't fully utilize the powers he was given because he wasn't born with them, and therefor wasn't use to them yet.

[@cdog3625]

I hope that this match is going to be in here because it looks so good I hops that this happens

[@BlueGriffin20]

It’s interesting. Megamind really needs his own backup to fight. He keeps getting captured and his Minion to get out of hail or even realize about the invisible car. Heck he spent a lot of the Titan fight to trick him that he’s not megamind/and then only won by removing his powers. If Titan has the full strength then he would have slow motion walk to MM and kill him. MM does have the brains though. His tech building is on point by far. Coming up with his weapons on they fly is pretty nice.
