Stark Infinity

Chapter 28: Stark's Analysis: Can I Beat MCU Thanos Now?



Stark's P O.V

______

It's a strange feeling to sit down and analyze myself like this. After all, I've never exactly been the type to log into a spreadsheet and list out my own capabilities. But with what I'm about to face, I have to be realistic about what I bring to the table—and what I don't.

Looking at the numbers, the stats are … well, impressive. To anyone else, they'd probably scream "superhuman" loud enough to make even Cap's ears ring. I mean, lifting 15 tons? Punching through 2-inch reinforced steel? Even without the armor, I'm a whole new level. I can see why Rogers might raise an eyebrow at these numbers. But here's the thing—raw stats on paper don't necessarily translate to real-world victory, especially when you're up against someone like Thanos. And that's a reality check I can't ignore.

Strength: My Limits and Potential

Let's start with raw strength. Lifting 15 tons on a good day. It's enough to handle heavy machinery, vehicles, and most combatants that might try to overpower me. But let's put that into context. In comic canon, Captain America has occasionally managed feats just shy of this, with that iconic shield of his lending him a hand. But with my current lifting ability, I could probably grapple and outmaneuver him physically, if only barely.

Of course, Thanos is a whole different beast. The guy threw Hulk around like a rag doll—if we're going toe-to-toe, I'll need more than raw muscle. I need precision, speed, and strategy to land any meaningful hits, which brings me to …

Striking Power: Breaking Through Barriers

Punching through 2-inch steel might sound impressive, but again, that's still just numbers on paper. Let's compare. Cap has cracked open Ultron sentries and dented vibranium with that shield of his. With my current power, I'd like to think I could do the same and maybe then some. Against a reinforced material like vibranium, I could definitely leave a mark.

But even with this force, against Thanos, it's hard to imagine these punches being more than just an irritation. Still, my armor amplifies my base capabilities far beyond this—enough to crack 5-inch steel and lift over 125 tons. Those numbers don't lie; that armor could actually damage him, but would it be enough?

Speed and Reaction: Moving with Precision

Forty miles per hour on foot. Five times the average reaction time. Quick enough to dodge bullets or even disarm opponents with precision. Captain America's reflexes are up there, but this reaction time gives me an edge. I'd have the response speed to match even some of the quickest fighters out there. But I know from experience that outpacing Thanos is no small feat. The guy's reactions are inhuman, and even this level of speed could feel like a slight edge at best.

In armor, though, it's another story. Ground speed jumps to 100 mph, and my flight can clock Mach 2.5. I'd have the edge in maneuverability and positioning. Being able to fly rings around Thanos and keep him guessing—that's my real advantage here.

The Armor's Strength: A Whole New Level

Then there's the suit. The Mark Infinity —the culmination of Starktonium, Pym particles, and some old-fashioned Stark ingenuity. With its enhanced strength, I'd be able to punch through materials that would stop my Endgame suit cold. Breaching 5-inch reinforced steel? That's no joke. Not to mention lifting upwards of 125 tons; I'd like to see Thanos try to brush that off as a casual slap.

But let's be real here. Thanos is one of the toughest opponents in the universe, and while this armor might give me a serious edge, "tough" doesn't quite do him justice. He broke my old suit to pieces in Endgame. The Mark Infinity could withstand a lot more, absorb more hits, and take him for a ride. Still, going head-to-head with him would likely end in a similar story—unless I play it smart.

Stealth, Adaptability, and Nanotech Weaponry: Fighting on My Terms

The Mark Infinity isn't just a tank; it's a tool for strategy. Cloaking, Pym particle integration, the works. I could go invisible, drop out of his line of sight, and shrink armor sections to dodge attacks or beef them up to absorb more. The stealth mode? Thanos might see through it once, but a few unpredictable cloaking maneuvers could give me the element of surprise when it matters most.

Weapon flexibility is another key. I can form a blade, a blaster, a shield—whatever I need, on demand. The ability to adapt my armor in real time is crucial. Against someone like Thanos, you don't want to be predictable, and the Mark Infinity's nanotech ensures I don't have to be.

Energy Projection: Blasts with Real Bite

The suit's Starktonium-powered repulsors and unibeam outclass anything I've wielded before. They can breach vibranium alloy, which means they're nothing to sneeze at. Sure, in Endgame, I couldn't make a dent in Thanos with my energy blasts. But with Starktonium's boost? These blasts might actually hurt him—if I'm able to land concentrated hits.

The unibeam's a game-changer here. With 75% of the Arc Reactor's full output, it's not a weapon to use lightly, but if I ever needed to punch through a tank—or a Titan—this would be my go-to.

M.A.R.V.E.L. AI: My Edge in Real-Time Strategy

And then there's M.A.R.V.E.L. FRIDAY was good, but M.A.R.V.E.L. is brilliant. With quantum processing, it's fast—lightning fast. While I'm focused on blocking a punch or delivering a blast, M.A.R.V.E.L. is running real-time predictive analysis on the fly, finding openings and patterns in Thanos's moves. And that's something no amount of raw power can replace.

The Bottom Line: Could This Suit Take Thanos?

So, here's the big question: does the Mark Infinity give me enough of an edge to finish the job? The short answer is…maybe. With all this tech, armor, and power, I could keep Thanos on his toes for a lot longer, deal some serious damage, and potentially find a moment to strike.

But could it be fatal? Unless I'm able to exploit a weakness or land a perfect shot at a weak point, he's just too durable for a straightforward kill. If I'm honest, I'd still need something beyond my own power—an Infinity Stone, for example—to land a guaranteed fatal blow.

What I do have, though, is resilience. This suit isn't about guaranteeing a kill; it's about survival and adaptability. And in the right hands, I'm betting that's enough to give even the Mad Titan a run for his money.

That's my analysis. It's not the ultimate answer to beating Thanos, but it's close enough. And if I know anything, it's that close enough is all I need to turn the tide.
