'''[[Standard Equipment]]:''' Armor, Double-Bladed Sword (Formerly for his Sacred Timeline self), Infinity Gauntlet
*'''The Infinity Gauntlet:''' A powerful gauntlet forged from Uru melted by the blazing power of a neutron star by the Dwarf King [[Eitri (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|Eitri]], under the strict command and supervision of Thanos himself under threat of death. With it, Thanos can collectively harness the power of all Six Infinity Stones, efficiently channeling and commanding their might without risk of misdirection or backfiring.
**'''Power Stone:''' Directly linked with, and representing all Power in the Universe, the Power Stone grants Thanos immense, unrivaled power on a cosmic scale, allowing him to effortlessly tear apart the surface of worlds and moons, as well as destroy his enemies with blasts of cosmic energies.
**'''Space Stone:''' Directly linked with, and representing all Space in the Universe, the Space Stone grants Thanos direct control over the fabric of Space itself, allowing him to telekinetically throw parts of Titan's destroyed moon, levitate, and fold space to create portals so that he may instantaneously traverse across the universe.
**'''Reality Stone:''' Directly linked with, and representing Reality itself, the Reality Stone grants Thanos the ability to mold and reshape the fabric of reality as he sees fit, allowing him to effortlessly transmute anything and anyone in his vicinity, create tangible illusions, and reform the entire landscape in which he's in.
**'''Soul Stone:''' Directly linked with, and representing the souls of all sentient beings in the Universe, the Soul Stone grants Thanos the power to manipulate the souls of his victims.
**'''Time Stone:''' Directly linked with, and representing all Time in the Universe, the Time Stone grants Thanos direct control over the fabric of Time itself, allowing him to halt, revert, and accelerate its flow, as well as generate endless time loops.
**'''Mind Stone:''' Directly linked with, and representing the minds of all sentient beings in the Universe, the Mind Stone grants Thanos the capability to influence and control the minds of his enemies. However, he has yet to demonstrate the Mind Stone's powers in any meaningful way.
'''[[Intelligence]]:''' '''Extraordinary Genius''' (Thanos is a cunning and ruthless individual with an intellect sharpened by centuries of experience. A brilliant strategist, commanding vast armies that have devastated countless worlds and destroyed empires across the galaxy, which earned him renown as one of the most fearsome warlords in the universe.

'''Standard Tactics:''' Thanos' fighting style greatly varies based on the version used and how many Infinity Stones he has. The two main versions that this profile covers are the one from Infinity War and the one from Endgame.
*The first one is a honorable warrior, who prefers [https://imgur.com/a/mQEJLLs not to kill his opponents if not needed]<ref name="The Road to Avengers: Endgame – The Art of the Marvel Cinematic Universe" /> and will first try to incapacitate them, unless he sees them as a serious threat to his plans, in which case he won't have problems killing the opponent if he has a chance to. It is unknown how he fight with his Double-Bladed Sword, but with the Stones he will try to quickly defeat the opponent with powerful attacks from his Power Stone or by incapacitating them with the Reality Stone and the Space Stone, but if that doesn't work then he will go for more lethal attacks. When equipped with the Complete Gauntlet, his first move will be to snap his finger in order to destroy his opponent, deconstructing them and turning them into ashes.
*The second one, instead, is much less honorable, being far more ruthless and sadistic with little regards towards anyone. He won't have any problems with trying to kill his opponent even if they aren't an immediate threat to him. This is reflected into his fighting style with the Double-Bladed Sword, since with it he will try to continuously attack the opponent, without giving them the time to counter-attack. He was never seen using the Stones singularly, except for the Power Stone which he used briefly against Captain Marvel. His first move when equipped with the Complete Gauntlet, instead, is to use it to destroy the whole Universe with a snap of his fingers.
'''Weaknesses:''' He must be able to move his hand to activate the Infinity Stones. Continuous usage of the Stones had a toll on his body, as his left arm has been permanently damaged

'''Note:'''
*The Infinity Stones are [https://imgur.com/3KeU6qo stated] to be powerful enough to impact a [[Higher-Dimensional Existence|four dimensional being]] like [[Dormammu (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|Dormammu]], even to the point of cowing him and halting his actions, therefore their hax must also be 4D in order to being able to affect him.
