MCU Downgrade Thread: Oh Snap

[RoTt35]

Why aren't the Guardians 5-B then for surviving the Power Stone? This is a very slippery slope for any feat regarding the Power Stone, and also again, Ronan was likely going to use the Power Stone far beyond it's standard yield, as the normal usages of it do not display this type of powe

Why would they? The passive energy output on the wielder isn't the same as the energy output on its target, otherwise Thanos would have knocked himself when he used the Power Stone to punch Captain Marvel while he was holding it with his bare hand. Besides, do you think each Guardian is a 1/4 as durable as Captain Marvel or Thanos since they also survived the Power Stone?

This doesn't apply in-universe, and Celestials have size manipulation with Tiamut even in the Eternals being much smaller than standard Celestials. Re-designs also don't inherently change the character or narrative surrounding them, Terrence Howard being recasted to Don Cheadle and Edward Norton to Mark Ruffalo being prime examples of this.

Redesigning a character from an old movie because his race was retconned years later is considerably different than a character's IRL actor being recasted. Also, the Celestials' profile has a note specifying that it covers them as they were described by Arishem in Eternals, which included Eson but he was added later due to his redesign. For example, the note also applies to Ego and the two Celestials in Omnipotence City, unless you want to upgrade the L&T characters to 3-B. Likewise, Thanos, unlike their previous owners, he is able to harness the stones' powers on a completely different level, being their real master, which would scale him above the Stone's using of Eson and Ronan
