Poll Ares vs Sentry - rematch (8 votes)
It has recently been revealed that the Marvel version of Ares isn’t really trash like many people generally make of him and is in fact closer to his DC version than one may have thought of before. Ares is both an elder god and a concept of war itself just as it was heavily implied if not outright stated in the X-Man fight, where he was able to walk through every trick X-Man had, casually fought him in Planck’s Time and was prophesied to even beat him by the stars themselves.
All of his low showings and the career of a pushover and a midtier in the past were simply the symptoms of his self-imposed complications of denying his nature and reality of his role in the universe. His role is wage wars and thrive off them not to fight among The Avengers to preserve peace. Doing so made him weak and, as per his own word, fundamentally “unhealthy“. Now he finally succumbed to his true self and became The God of War once again.
His feats are as follow:
Beating up Beta Ray Bill empowered by The Twilight Sword, making the remnants of Malekith’s army and even the likes of Dreamqueen, Nightmare’s bastard daughter, and Tyr his loyal subordinates, and feeding off of dead enemy soldiers in a war.
He also took an arrow infused the element called Promethium and made of the molten Ultimate Mjolnir’s substance, which, in the form of a sword, could cut the chain binding their warship which Thor’s lightning charged Mjolnir slam couldn’t break. The sword also didn’t kill Sy’m, Limbo’s most powerful demon, although it was implied to be possible and may have even done so if it wasn’t for Jane being merciful towards her enemies.
Pretty good feats overall.
If this Ares replaced himself in a younger and weaker phase in the Siege of Asgard and had to confront The Sentry how would the fight have gone? I think Sentry can still rip him apart if he wants to because he was above the power of the Norn Stones that Loki used to empower the Avengers based on IMAGINATIONS, but it would still be a lot closer than it was last time. What do you think?
