This is the correct result. Like with Raiden vs Thor or Rishi vs Jiraiya the two combatants we're nowhere close in terms of strength.

the thing is aswell thanos at his highest is universal level of power as in he can destroy his universe and recreate it with all the infinity stones darkseid is lower to middle multiversal level considering he could in theory with the levels of power he has displayed just blitz every universe in the dc multiverse only reason he doesn't is he wants to control everything not destroy it and there are beings far stronger then him who probs woulden't allow it. basically its just a tad unbalanced fight because darkseid is inherently stronger and has a better powerlevel in general like darkseid to take him out you need very specific information and understanding of new gods to take out thanos you just need to take his infinity stones if he has them then blitz him which if thanos was fighting even another universal level being in a fair fight they should be able to cus thanos isen't naturally universal level in terms of power more solar system level i think the reason thanos is seen as so op is really down to him fighting planet to city level powerlevels on average and the fact most writers give him batman level plot armor which as a solar system level being is just nuts

[@DarkFrozenDepths]

I don't know if anyone mentioned it... but DC and Marvel did have a crossover once... Darkseid called the Infinity stones as "useless rocks" in it. Just wrap your head around that one for a sec.

[@whydoistillusethissite8626]

TRIVIA TIME!! (There's a LOT) 1) The connections between Thanos and Darkseid are that they are two of the most physically powerful intergalactic warlords of rival comic book companies, are members of cosmic races (Eternals and New Gods, respectively), and seek objectives that will enable them to end life on a universal scale: the Infinity Gems for Thanos and the Anti-Life Equation for Darkseid. 1a) Both are also arch-enemies to their respective series' superhero teams (Thanos to the Avengers and Darkseid to the Justice League). 1b) Coincidentally (and somewhat ironically), whilst Thanos' main weapon is named the Infinity Gauntlet, bringing to mind a never-ending nature, Darkseid's power is known as the Omega Effect, which is named after a symbol representing the end of something. 2) Due to the three re-examined episodes that happened before, Boba Fett VS Samus Aran (Remastered), Goku VS Superman 2, and Mario VS Sonic (2018), Thanos VS Darkseid is technically the 100th UNIQUE matchup that has been made into an episode. 3) This is the 15th Marvel VS DC themed episode, after Rogue VS Wonder Woman, Batman VS Spider-Man, Batman VS Captain America, Deadpool VS Deathstroke, Iron Man VS Lex Luthor, Green Arrow VS Hawkeye, Flash VS Quicksilver, Hulk VS Doomsday, Venom VS Bane, Thor VS Wonder Woman, Batman Beyond VS Spider-Man 2099, Black Panther VS Batman, Doctor Strange VS Doctor Fate, and Nightwing VS Daredevil, and with the next 9 being Aquaman VS Namor, Captain Marvel VS Shazam, Ghost Rider VS Lobo, Miles Morales VS Static, Cable VS Booster Gold, Winter Soldier VS Red Hood, Batgirl VS Spider-Gwen, Lex Luthor VS Doctor Doom, and Batman VS Iron Man. 4) This is the 1st Marvel VS DC themed Season Finale. 4a) This is the 5th 3D Marvel VS DC fight, after Deadpool VS Deathstroke, Iron Man VS Lex Luthor, Hulk VS Doomsday, and Thor VS Wonder Woman, and with the next one being Batgirl VS Spider-Gwen. 5) This is the 13th Villains themed episode, after Akuma VS Shang Tsung, Goomba VS Koopa, Eggman VS Wily, Shao Kahn VS M. Bison, Fulgore VS Sektor, Darth Vader VS Doctor Doom, Bowser VS Ganon, Joker VS Sweet Tooth, Venom VS Bane, Shredder VS Silver Samurai, Sephiroth VS Vergil, and Ultron VS Sigma, and with the next 8 being Ganondorf VS Dracula, The Seven Battle Royale, Lex Luthor VS Doctor Doom, Heihachi Mishima VS Geese Howard, Goku Black VS Reverse-Flash, Akuma VS Shao Kahn, Madara VS Aizen, and Galactus VS Unicron. 5a) This is the 2nd one to be Marvel VS DC themed, after Venom VS Bane, and with the next one being Lex Luthor VS Doctor Doom. 6) This is the 2nd Season Finale that features two antagonists/villains fighting against each other, after Sephiroth VS Vergil. 7) This is the 3rd Death Battle to include Omega Sparx in the music, after Balrog VS TJ Combo and Ryu VS Jin, and with the next one being Miles Morales VS Static. 7a) This is the 2nd time Omega Sparx has an original song in the music, after Ryu VS Jin, and with the next one being Miles Morales VS Static. 8) This is the 7th episode to feature an original track with lyrics, after Goku VS Superman 2's "Alive", Wolverine VS Raiden' "Exo", Meta VS Carolina's "Slingshot", Ryu VS Jin's "Fight Like A Devil", Optimus Prime VS Gundam's "Wings of Iron", and Ultron VS Sigma's "Infection Perfection", and with the next 10 being Ben 10 VS Green Lantern's "Emerald Heroes", All Might VS Might Guy's "Mighty", Miles Morales VS Static's "Watts Up Danger", Gray VS Esdeath's "Lost Ice Storms", Sabrewulf VS Jon Talbain's "Blood Moon", Hulk VS Broly's "Ikari", Shadow VS Ryuko's "Chaos Unraveled", Blake VS Mikasa's "Thunder Shroud", Batman VS Iron Man's "Suit Yourself", and Goku Black VS Reverse-Flash's "Reverse Rose". 9) This is the 3rd Death Battle to feature Boomstick making some type of Captain Planet joke, after Shao Kahn VS M. Bison and Ken VS Terry, with the next two being Aang VS Edward Elric and Sasuke VS Hiei. 10) This is the 1st episode where the loser dies by a bullet, with the next one being Red VS Blue. 11) This is the 1st episode where the loser is killed an infinite amount of times. 12) This is the 3rd episode where Wiz groans right before saying his "The winner is..." phrase, after Gaara VS Toph and Smokey Bear VS McGruff the Crime Dog. 13) This is the LAST episode to use the "FIGHT!" announcement before the battle begins. 13a) However, it was temporarily returned in Black Canary VS Sindel, The Seven Battle Royale, and Heihachi Mishima VS Geese Howard. 14) This is the 3rd episode where the winner defeated the loser by sending the latter to his or her turf after Ryu VS Scorpion and Flash VS Quicksilver and with the next one being Iron Fist VS Po. 15) This is the first episode where the combatants kill each other multiple times, with the next being Goku Black VS Reverse-Flash (Thanos destroys Darkseid's avatar multiple times, and Darkseid traps Thanos in the Omega Sanction) 16) The popular rap artist JT Music (also featured on Rooster Teeth) released a rap battle between the two the same day to coincide with the fight. The music video also features clips of the battle. This is done again for Miles Morales VS Static as they’re fight was also shown in the rap battle. 17) Despite them saying only Season 4 had no appearances of Deadpool, he also didn't make an appearance in Season 1. 18) Thanks to their size-alteration powers, Darkseid and Thanos (using the Space Stone) are currently the largest characters in Death Battle history, with both being larger than stars. True Darkseid's size is never fully shown but is canonically stated to have a shadow that eclipses the DC multiverse. 19) This is the 3rd episode where a character had prior knowledge of his opponent's weakness, after Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Battle Royale and Meta VS Carolina. According to the Result popup notes, the JLA/Avengers crossover could technically be considered canon, and thus Darkseid would have already been aware of the fact that the Infinity Gauntlet does not work outside of the Marvelverse. 20) Coincidentally, the first official trailer of Avengers: Endgame premiered prior to the release of this episode. 20a) Ironically, it premiered shortly after the release of Thanos' preview video. TRACK!! The track used for this fight is "Kings of Infinity" composed by Brandon Yates and having vocals sung by OmegaSparx. It opens with deep and slow-paced piano notes before techno beats begin to play over with it. The lyrics sung are presented as slow-paced to reflect the immense physical prowess of the two combatants. The title of the track reflects the two combatants' status as rulers of their armies, especially Darkseid's status as the Lord of Apokolips. The "Infinity" part of the title likely refers to Thanos' signature weapon, the Infinity Gauntlet. The title cover features the Infinity Gauntlet, Thanos' main weapon, in front of the Omega symbol, reflecting Darkseid's power of the Omega Effect.

Time for a VA Fun Fact: Darkseid in this battle is voiced by Edward Bosco. He's one I see all over the place, but have never actually delved into the filmography, so admittedly, this one's for me to finally do some proper research. You heard him recently as the bouncer for Ozzie's in the new Helluva Boss episode. He's also the voice of Alastor (radio demon) in Hazbin Hotel. In Final Fantasy VII Machinabridged, he voiced Tifa's Dad (along with a couple other background characters). OH SNAP! He's the voice of one my favorite characters in Terrain of Magical Expertise, Doubling, and I still look forward to the eventual reaction to that series. Otherwise, he's got a lot of side characters in anime. Also, at the time of this comment, new HFIL episode from TeamFourStar just released on KZbin. I'm excite for your reaction.

16:13 Darkseid's true size is so big, Darkseid himself is the size of our own universe (for reference). His "tubes" shrink down his avatars/clones to fit in. If he came in with his true size, his sheer size and mass would basically suck in our entire universe to him like how if a giant planet suddenly appeared next to Earth, our planet, moon and most likely other planets would almost instantly be sucked into its gravitational radius Just like how if debris in space above gets close enough to Earth's atmosphere, it starts to get pulled towards Earth and burns up as it goes through the atmosphere. So essentially, we're nothing but a piece of debris burning up and colliding with everything else as Darkseid's gravity would pull us all to him. 22:14 Also, their punch was so powerful, it esssntially reset the universe as it "popped" back into existence. They created a new big bang.

They actually lowballed them both here. More recent showing of Thanos have him more powerful naturally than he is with the gauntlet in his early appearances, but that's still far from being able to contend with Darkseid. Darkseid, and all of the gods in DC, are living platonic concepts. Darkseid is the literal manifestation of the idea of evil, he transcends physical reality entirely. And their speed calc is actually a lowball so great that numbers don't even do it justice. The source wall doesn't exist at the edge of the universe, it exists at the edge of the Monitor sphere, which encompasses the sphere of the gods, which encompasses the multiverse contained within the 5-dimensional Bleed. The source wall is a boundary to a realm that transcends even ideas. He didn't travel to the edge of a physical space in seconds, he traveled to edge of the very concept of reality where time and space hold no meaning. He is beyond even the idea of motion, speed is irrelevant to him, as is anything that Thanos considers power. This was probably the most laughably one-sided mismatch in Death Battle's history.

About that Mr.Miracle character that was mentioned, because why not (sorry about the long comment): Mr.Miracle is the name of a couple different characters in DC, with their main commonalities being their suits, and them all being masters of Escapology. The first one, Thaddeus Brown, was simply a human who was an Escape Artist as a profession under the stage name Mr.Miracle. He was later killed by a criminal syndicate called Intergang. The second (and most well known), Scott Free (get it? Like scot free? 🥁), is a New God and Darkseid's adopted son. Context: At one point New Genesis and Apokolips came to a (short lived) cease fire political agreement where their rulers exchanged their new born sons, New Genesis' Ruler, Highfather, received Orion (the guy who litterally ripped out Darkseid's heart), while Darkseid recieved Scott, whom he promptly gave to Apokolips resident sadistic solider groomer: Granny Goodness. Scott would eventually fall in love with one of Granny's Elite Female Soliders (or Furies as they're called), Big Barda, escaped to Earth with her, was trained by the first Mr.Miracle, avenged his death after that happened, and took up his career and stage name, while also working as an ally to the Justice League to boot. The third, Shilo Norman (the guy who got trapped in the Omega Sanction), was an adopted son of Thaddeus, and aided Scott in avenging his death. Later he briefly stood in for Scott for a time, also later became a security chief of Slabside Penitentiary, or just 'The Slab' (a prison specializing in super human containment), and later took up the mantle as Mr.Miracle on a more "permanent" basis (Scott was dead at the time iirc). During his time as Mr.M he kept doing increasingly dangerous stunts often bordering on suicidal more than anything, culminating in him attempting to escape from the grasp of an artificially generated "black hole"... Yeah... There's more confusing details that I don't care to get into tbh, but that black hole incident is what led him on the path that eventually got him put in the Omega Sanction. He got out eventually though.

0:09 "Darkseid exists" Interestingly, there is a "saying" in DC universe: Darkseid IS. 0:30 "They don't do him justice compared to the comic version" Actually, it's not that they don't do him "justice", unless people saying that meant only in terms of sheer power. Because honestly, I think his goals and personality are better in the movies, where he believes the only way to save people of the universe is through wiping out half of them, in contrast to where in the comics he had done that JUST to impress a girl and then went mad with power. But admittedly I don't know everything about the comics. 10:51 "And so the Omega Effect transformed Uxas into the physical manifestation of Tyranny" Yeah, actually, while that's what several authors had stated, it seems wrong. The best indicator of that came up when once in the comics Darkseid had met with Spirit of Chaos and Spirit of Order. Chaos greeted him as an old allay, while Order called him its mortal enemy. Tyranny typically is about establishing ultimate order. So no, it seems that it would be closer to call Darkseid the manifestation of Evil. I recently watched an analysis video about Darkseid that goes into great detail about what he actually is as well as the nature of what evil is which explains it WAY better than I ever could (as I said, I don't know everything about comics, most of my knowledge about DC - and Marvel while we're at it - comics from various TV shows and movies; if you wanna talk about nature of evil in Tolkien's Middle-Earth, Warcraft, or to lesser extent Star Wars, I'm your man, but DC and Marvel not so much xD), here's a link if you ever wanna check it out: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nJStaYSjpMyijrs

[@danielwilson8604]

tyranny is chaos masquerading as order, but he's a god of SOMETHING wicked

[@Shadeius]

There are layers to the comic book Thanos too. If we just talk about the Infinity Gauntlet Thanos (bear in mind that this is story from 1991) he was resurrected by Death to wipe out half of all sentient life. The task was not Thanos' own idea but he still did it to try impress Death since he loved her, and so went far beyond Death's original design by creating the Infinity Gauntlet to become her equal thought in reality he became her greater. Now the question comes how can being that is truly omnipotent lose? The answer was that deep inside Thanos didn't believe he was worthy of the supreme power so he subconsciously sabotaged himself. Thanos is his own worst enemy which is why after coming terms with that he became a farmer in a distant world unknown to everybody else to live a quiet life. Obviously this isn't the end of the Mad Titan's story but it is where the Infinity Gauntlet ends it; somebody who is satisfied to till the soil in solitude while reflecting on everything that led to him to that life.

The song during the fight for this battle is amazing..haha, the artist actually did a separate upload of it, might be worth featuring in a video at some point. Even if you're not interested in that I'd at least check out the video on your own time, it's pretty good. Like a rap battle basically.

[@rtxmeatlug3149]

19:53 The reason why "Thanos" is written on that Helicopter is because it's a reference to the Thanoscopter from Marvel comics, a helicopter owned by Thanos. Did you know that the Thanos' Helicopter blade sword in Avengers : Endgame (2019) was ALSO inspired by it (as per the Russo Brothers)?

From the Vs. Forum I'm part of, this MU goes somewhat like this: - Darkseid Vs. Thanos (no gauntlet): Darkseid claps - Darkseid Vs. Thanos (with the gauntlet): Thanos wins

[@gogetablack5384]

You remember when they mentioned in Hulk VS Doomsday that Doomsday beat Darkseid? What happened is that Doomsday & Darkseid fought, Doomsday became stronger while they fought and he became so strong that Darkseid became scared of Doomsday and begged Superman to save him. Both Superman & Doomsday was in Darkseid,s home universe at the time. What happened afterwards was the Superman dragged Doomsday out of the universe. And the writer of that story confirmed that it was Darkside's true form. But luckily Doomsday was a lot stronger then he is normally.

A fact about Lady Death and Thanos' relationship: Most versions of their story started when Thanos was basically in his late teens as a student, and Death came along and manipulated him into the warmonger he is today.

@11:18 I know I'm a year late here, but... You sweet, sweet summer child. "he's going up against superman tho" ummmmmm........ Darkseid, literally speaking here, treats superman like he is his red headed stepchild. I'm not even being facetious here, he comes in at random intervals just to beat superman's face in, and superman even develops a bit of a psychological fixation on darkseid, in *MANY* of these stories where they meet subsequent times... He is absolutely wary and most distrusting of darkseid, more than any other entity in the DC canonical universe. Darkseid, is *very much* superman's personal abuser. This is an under acknowledged fact about their personal relationship with each other, but it's doubtlessly true. With those two, I find it doesn't truely matter who is actually stronger, as they have written superman to be psychologically dependant on the outcome of their battles in a way that can only be described as "abusive". In this sense, darkseid has already won in some regards against superman. Idc about fanboy opinions here, this is a reoccurring fact about their relationship, and the fact that they always write superman as completely tilted towards ensuring he "wins" against darkseid.... The truth of the matter just becomes apperant to any neutral observer, here.

hey Kyle, here's a fun fact about Darkseid. the creator of Darkseid, former Marvel creator Jack Kirby, created Darkseid after he had escaped nazi germany. and he based Darkseid of a certain dictator. a dictator called Adolf Hitler. in the comics, Darkseid is similar to Hitler when it came to doing speeches, his ruling over people, and thinking certain people were beneath him. in Darkseid's case, it's all of humanity. i may be corrected about the nazi germany part. i think he was a soldier fighting the nazi's or something, i don't know. but the part about Darkseid being based off of Hitler is true. :)

From my best guess, the only way, from what I can presume, is that Thanos would have to find some way to upgrade the Infinity Gauntlet to where it can overpower Black Winter, as it is stated that he destroyed the DC Universe (well, based on a reference, so you'd have to accept that as canon first, which is tricky...), then use that to achieve the capability of achieving a dimension higher than the Realms of the Gods in DC. Maybe he could theoretically build a new Sphere akin to him specifically or make it where Eternals could be placed above the Realm of the New Gods, but that's a whole can of worms, as that would also mean that the Celestials, the Living Tribunal, Eternity, The Beyonder, and so on would become just broken.....OR make the Celestial Realm the same plane of existence as the Sphere that holds the Realm of the Gods and place himself above that to be roughly equal with Darkseid. I think that's how it would go down. I might be wrong tho.

It REALLY grinds my gears when they do characters that can TELEPORT Infinitely and go: This character is super quick because they traveled this distance in this amount of time. The character ALWAYS has teleportation as well. And with Darkseid it is just even dumber as he is always carrying around a teleportation device called the Father-box. So traveling to the ends of the universe by stepping through a portal isn't the same as flying or running that distance.
