Unless you live under a rock, we all know that Avengers Endgame is hitting theatres
next week and pretty much the entire human population is freaking out about it.
We’ve been dishing out all the Avenger goodies on our channel this week, so why not give
you some more.
Today’s list is going to be a fun one, but it might not be one some of you agree with.
SO, before you tear me to pieces in the comments below just remember this is all for fun and
simply by comparing the characters PHSYICAL abilities.
Everyone has their favourite superheros but we’re just looking at hand-to-hand combat
battles and how the different characters compare to each other.
Let’s jump into it with today’s list of Top 10 Weakest Avenger Characters.
10) Starting off the list at number 10 is The Wasp, an original superhero you can find
in the American comic books published by Marvel Comics.
The newest version of the character is a girl named Hope Van Dyne, and is played by actress
Evangeline Lilly in the MCU.
You can find The Wasp in the 2015 movie Ant-Man and then again as the superhero Wasp in the
2018 sequel Ant-Man and the Wasp.
Reports have also been made that she will reprise her role in the Avengers: Endgame
movie that comes out next week.
So it’s clear that she must be a pretty strong hero, but if you take away her suit,
she’s just an ordinary girl.
Her bio-wings allow her to fly and she has bio-electric blasters installed in her gloves
with extendable claws.
But that’s the power of the suit we’re talking about.
Take Hope and throw her into a superhero battle without her suit, and she’s a wasp that’s
getting squashed.
9) At number 9 we have Hawkeye, the superhero coming from the Marvel comics and is damn
good at archery.
But that’s been the ultimate debate, isn’t that all he’s really good at?
He doesn’t have some supernatural power; he’s really just a regular man who has good
aim and skill when it comes to his bow and arrow.
When you’re putting him next to some of the other Avengers, and you’re talking about
physical strength, he doesn’t really compare to some of their powers.
Don’t get me wrong, he can put up a fight and he’s done some really cool shit with
his bow and arrow.
But ultimately, if you look at the big picture, he’s just a dad bod with an old-school weapon.
8) Sliding into number 8 we have Black Widow.
Listen, Scarlett Johansson is my girl, so if I can admit this than I think you can too.
She’s strong, and can kick some serious butt, but she doesn’t have any powers.
No special suit, no weapon, just her mind body and soul.
Like I said she can hold her own when we’ve seen her in action, and she’s a hero for
a reason.
It’s been confirmed that a Black Widow movie will be coming out so maybe we’ll get to
see some more strength and power come from the female superhero.
Similar to Hawkeye, she’s just a regular woman.
Throw her into a fight with some of the strongest Avengers and she won’t stand a chance on
her own.
And that’s just the honest truth.
7) In at number 7 we have Star Lord, aka Peter Quill, the son of an ordinary Earth woman
and the Celestial Ego.
He’s got skills, especially when it comes to technology, he’s a smart dude.
But since he ended his own father, Peter Quill has just been an ordinary human, and if it
wasn’t for his high-tech toys, he’d be next to worthless in a fight.
When talking about physical strength and weaknesses, he too is just another ordinary guy; it’s
his technology that really gives him his strength.
It doesn’t help that he has an ego and a short temper, which has shown us in Infinity
War that he’s more of a liability than anything else.
His heart might be in the right place but his head is always somewhere else and we can’t
deny that he ruined Iron Man’s plan by not being able to keep his cool.
He literally ruined everything, so I’m sorry, but I think he deserves to be on this list.
Do you guys agree?
6) Taking our number 6 spot is Bruce Banner, not the Hulk, Bruce Banner.
In other circumstances, the Hulk would definitely hold a higher place on this list, but let’s
not forget that without The Hulk, it’s just Bruce.
He’s a guy who makes us laugh mainly because his weakness is the center of our joke.
We all know that the Hulk is fueled off of anger, and we all saw how Bruce wasn’t able
to bring out The Hulk during a fight in Infinity War, which ultimately made him completely
useless.
Iron Man and Spiderman were more concerned on keeping him safe because without the Hulk
coming out, he would be ripped to shreds.
Some fans have gone to say that this weakness is “adorable”.
Which is flattering, but not when you’re a superhero.
In the final battle of Infinity War, Bruce Banner can’t even make his green monster
come out so he wears the Hulk Buster suit that Iron Man made.
I mean come on, even his buddy Iron Man knew that without protection he didn’t stand
a chance as Bruce.
5) Half way through the list at number 5 is War Machine, also known as James Rhodes, or
“Rhodey”.
War Machine is a superhero that appears in the American comic books published by Marvel
Comics.
War Machine is actually a very strong superhero, he was even ranked 31st in 2012 on the list
of The Top 50 Avengers.
But, once again, that’s just the powerful suit getting him that title.
Without the suit, he’s just a lieutenant with no power, and the same strength as any
normal human.
Not to mention, he’s nowhere near comparable when it comes to Tony Stark’s Iron Man suit.
The War Machine suit was modeled similarly to the Iron Man suit, but apparently James
doesn’t know how to work it as well as Tony does.
Evidence to back this up?
He was injured in Silver War WHILE wearing the suit.
Just imagine if he didn’t have his suit on.
4) At number 4 we have Rocket Racoon.
His physical features represent a raccoon that we would see down here on Earth.
When it comes to his mind though he is extremely intelligent and has a great head for strategy
and tactics.
He has the brains and abilities to design and create powerful weapons, and can tell
you anything about any weapon in the galaxy.
Although he’s a smart little animal, when it comes to physical strength he’s about
as useless as an Earth raccoon is.
His actual strength as a fighter is limited unless he has a weapon that won’t run out
of ammo.
To sum it all up, Rocket Racoon is basically a gunman, and a gunman without a gun, is..
screwed.
3) Coming into number 3 we have Ant-Man, the Scott Lang version of the character to be
exact.
The hilarious actor Paul Rudd plays the superhero and although he does a great job at it, he’s
not the strongest one of the bunch if you take away his suit.
It’s his suit that allows him to shrink in size but increase in strength, if you take
that away, there’s no shrinking and really no strength.
Some superheroes have powers that don’t come from a suit and are just a part of them,
so if you’re putting Scott Lang next to those guys, he’s getting his ass kicked.
Basically he too doesn’t have any powers of his own; they all come from the suit.
2) Alright guys, at number 2 we have Mantis.
Just by looking at her you would know that she was born of an unnamed race; she basically
looks like a human with the face of an insect.
She was raised by insectoid beings with natural powers of empathy, and was raised apart from
her people by the Celestial known as Ego.
He employed her to basically play the role of a caretaker, by using her powers to calm
his crazy manic behavior.
Later on she joined the Guardians of the Galaxy to go against her former master, because she
realized his plans were to destroy all life in the universe.
If you’re giving her a textbook definition it would be that Mantis is a lover, not a
fighter.
While her empathetic powers are impressive, they are also limited in how they can be used
when it comes to a fight.
She can force a person to sleep, but the effect can be resisted by some particularly strong
individuals.
She can also control the mind of someone and make them feel intense sorrow or tremendous
joy, but only to the point of acting as a distraction.
The reason she is one of the weakest characters is because she has to touch-base to use her
powers, and most superheros wouldn’t let her get close enough to even do so.
Physically, she has nothing.
And when it comes to the battle’s we see in the MCU, you gotta have some physical abilities.
Little girl doesn’t stand a chance.
1) Taking our number 1 spot is Falcon.
He is a former member of the United States air force who served as a para-rescue wingman.
When he’s not falcon, he’s Sam Wilson, a man who left his active service for a position
in Veterans Affairs where he could help other fellow vets who are having a hard time adjusting
to civilian life.
Okay, so if this was a list of sweetest Avenger characters, he’d be at number 1.
Don’t get me wrong, he is a soldier and no one can take away his skill or bravery,
but that wouldn’t be enough in a battle against some of the other heroes.
It’s his wings that give him his abilities and weapons.
His jetpack has some defensive weapons built into it, and we know that speed and mobility
is his thing.
But without the powerful jetpack, what all does he have when it comes to physical strength?
His air force experience would definitely benefit him and I’m sure he could hold his
own in a fight against another human, but put him next to someone like Thanos and his
fists wouldn’t be enough.
Not to mention if anything were to happen to his jetpack during a battle, he is immediately
screwed.
It doesn’t help his case that he’s not particularly a fan favourite either.
Sorry to the handful of Falcon fans out there.
Well, there you have it guys.
