MCU Fight: Ego the Living Planet Vs. Eson The Searcher

[Surfer]

We will be doing VS. battles for the MCU every week and will be using the Winners and Losers to create an accurate power tier list created by some of it's biggest fans (you). So don't forget to VOTE and after voting for a Winner please include a comment on which power tier, both the Winner and Loser should reside within. Also, see below for more details on the characters abilities as well as for a list of available power tiers to choose from.

Don't forget to put which Tier group you think Ego the Living Planet and Eson the Searcher belong to in your posts.

So, without further delay here is this week's match up.

EGO THE LIVING PLANET Vs. ESON THE SEARCHER WITH THE INFINITY STONE

*****Here are some of their powers, abilities and relevant feats.*****


EGO THE LIVING PLANET

- Immortality: Ego, like his race, was immortal and ancient. While giving Star-Lord, Gamora and Drax a tour of his planet, he stated that he was millions of years old. He can only be truly killed if his true form, his brain, is destroyed.

- Superhuman Strength: As a Celestial, Ego's physical strength is at immense superhuman levels. He was able to casually crush Quill's Walkman Headset in his hand, as well as smash through stones and propel his son across the vast underground center of his planet during their fight. It is also said by the*Collector*that these beings have such incalculable strength, that they can allegedly wield the*Infinity Stones.

- Superhuman Durability: In addition to his powerful strength, Ego also has superhuman durability which makes him almost impervious to physical attacks. His avatars are also superhumanly durable. He was able to withstand his son's Celestial powers and attacks and crashing through rock at bullet-like speed. He was also able to stand outside of his ship in the vacuum of space unfazed.

- Molecular Manipulation:Ego is able to manipulate matter to a molecular level thanks to his Celestial powers. While giving Star-Lord, Drax and Gamora a tour of his planet, he stated that it took him millions of years to master this ability.

- Planetary Form: Ego was able to use his molecular manipulation to create a shell around himself, which after millions of years, he later evolved into a planet. He can manipulate the planet on a molecular level. His brain is stored in the center of his planet's core, while his energy form could traverse the planet and use matter it manipulated to make itself physically manifest. While directly possessing the planet, he could more seamlessly manipulate and reshape its structure, such as to cause the ground to trap members of the Guardians of the Galaxy, no matter where they were.

- Energy Manipulation: Ego essentially descibes his powers as "light". In particular, this is a blue, fiery light that he could shape and transform into physical constructs. He once projected radiance beams from his fingers that are able to unlock handcuffs. He even taught his son, Peter Quill, how to manipulate light.

- Biological Manipulation: Ego has also shown to be able to create and manipulate biological matter, including his own living avatars, which he creates to experience what it is like to be human.

- Health Manipulation: Ego created a tumor inside Meredith Quill's brain in order to kill her.

- Avatar Creation: In order to interact with the intelligent lifeforms that populates the universe, Ego created for himself an humanoid avatar who reflected his idea of a biological humanoid being. His avatar is an extension of his own consciousness and is provided with a digestive system, pain receptors and a reproductive system, as Ego explained to Drax that he "does indeed have a penis". However, it requires periodic returns to his main body to regenerate in the light of his planet to continue functioning.

ESON THE SEARCHER WITH INFINITY STONE

- Cosmic Power: Eson has unimaginable power, so much that he can destroy a planet, while wielding an Infinity Stone.

- Superhuman Durability: Eson's physical constitution is so immeasurably strong that he stands on the surface of the planet as it is destroyed without fear.

- Extremely Long Lived: As a Celestial Eson's been around for millions of years.

- Gigantic Size: Seems to be over a thousand feet tall.

So enjoy and we are looking forward to the results. Spread the word.

 

[BigThor]

Eson The Searcher for me, he destroyed that planet very casually, should have no problem with Ego.

Ego hasn't shown any planet busting so far.

 

[jaqua99]

This is a tough one for me.

So with Ego being a celestial, is he a celestial like Eson the Searcher? Are all celestials floating brains?

I find it difficult to pick one because Eson was really just an easter egg. Destroying the planet was huge, but Ronan was going to do that too, so that's the power of the power gem.

We have no idea how strong Eson the Searcher is, how durable he is. So this battle becomes, can Ego rebuild his planet faster that Eson destroys it? Can ego consume Eson? Can he create an avatar as big as Eson and wrestle the staff away from him?

I'm not gonna vote yet, but will say Eson for now, wait till I see more comments

Ronan was going too, Eson actually did it. So one is speculative and the other actually performed the feat who knows Ronan may have died while destroying the planet or he may not have even be able to do it.

My point is that given the story of Guardians 1, Ronan's plan, the implication and that we saw the celestial do it with the gem..it appears the power gem amps its wielder with planetary level power. Eson has it in this battle, so he is a planet buster regardless, but my point is, his only appearances is with the power gem, in about a 3 second scene. It's very difficult to use him in a battle

 

[Dasher10]

Ego is dead. Eson is alive.

I agree, but for all we know Eson might just be the power gems original wielder.

He is difficult to use in a battle, but he does have an actual feat that's useful in a battle so "I'll allow it". *Referee Mills Lane voice*

 

[Solaire]

These battles are pretty hard because we've only seen Eson for a few seconds. For that alone I'd vote Ego. Looked like the planet Eson was destroying really didn't have a chance but I am sure Ego would be fighting back. Since he was essentially the planet he would be able to make gigantic creatures or objects to battle Eson. I'd say he'd put up a pretty good fight and eventually win thus adding Eson to the list of dead in his cave.

 

[pr0xyt0xin]

What feat is greater? Creating a planet? or destroying a planet?

I understand that one feat sorta cannot "defeat the other" but Ego is a far larger/more complex entity than Eson appears as. If not being soothed by Mantis, not being accosted by Star Lord and the other Guardians, could Ego be capable of the energy it takes to craft a physical body (Pac-man size or larger) that can take on Eson? Certainly he could rival the size. But the power? This is even accounting for Eson with the power gem. He can swallow Eson whole and keep him from moving his limbs to swing the power gem. A planet has an friggen orbit, Eson does not.

I am going Ego. Both cosmic tier (alongside Surtur and Dormammu).

 

[pr0xyt0xin]

Also, this may be unrelated, but when the time comes I am voting for Odin (MCU Odin) in the transcendent tier. Above Hela, perhaps even Cosmic tier back when he defeated Surtur, but as he appears in the films, Modern Odin if you will, Transcendent at best.

Conjuring up dark energy to transport Thor, shooting a laserbeam or two, sleeping for half a movie, depowering Thor, holding back Hela these are tremendous feats, but they aren't really planet busting or even City busting. We've never seen Odin do something that crazy in the films. Transcendent over Hela, below Ego/Dormammu.

The guy could wield an infinity stone, he's maybe as powerful as one, he isn't more powerful than one.

 

[BigThor]

I'm not even gonna use Odin in any battles I create.

 

[Surfer]

It is my belief that Ego is the Brain that came from the severed floating Celestial Head known as Knowhere and over time he constructed a new body for himself in the form of a planet. If true both Eson and Ego's power sets should be pretty much identical to one another as they both come from the same Celestial race, but I give Eson the edge in battle due to his humanized form. One might argue that Ego also has a humanized form, but that was only an extension of Ego called an Avatar and not the entirety of Ego himself. So again I think Eson would take the battle given his humanized form being better suited for battle then a planet form.

At least that's how I see it.

Also, I feel both characters belong in the cosmic tier.

Totally reasonable. He's a supporting character in the MCU. His feats don't quite give enough information.

Yeah, Ego did say he just came into existence though.

 

[Surfer]

Yeah, Ego did say he just came into existence though.

Well he does not really say he came into existence as much as he says he was floating through space and came into sentience, suggesting the brain existed but it just became aware. Also I think it is likely that if his head was severed as a Celestial that his brain could have gone into shock causing memory loss of his previous life. I mean getting your head cut off is probably not an experience you want to remember.

Also, there is proof beyond just the fact that there is an empty skull on one side of the universe and a big brain floating around in space on the other side of the universe.

There is also the fact that James Gunn used the Coordinates "M3RD17H 1721+121212 24" for the Knowhere location, which translates to MEREDITH QU+LLL X. Combining this with the other coordinates in the movie allows it to read. SHH: This is Mom's Cancer: Meredith Quill's Ex.

And who do we know that is Meredith Quill's Ex that put a tumor in her brain. Well that would be Ego. So, to have the coordinates on Knowhere referring to Ego just seems too coincidental for it to be anything but what was intended by James Gunn.

Some might argue or point to the fact that they were mining brain matter from Knowhere, but I would say that if your brain was removed from it's Skull there would probably be some residual matter remaining which make it more rare and more valuable, and it could also relate to his loss of memory. Once again because of it being a very traumatic experience.

Here are some links to check out that support this theory and kind of talk about what I just mentioned but in better detail.

I like the Ego = Knowhere theory. Obviously it's a little thin, but it's definitely a cool idea.

 

[Surfer]

I like the Ego = Knowhere theory. Obviously it's a little thin, but it's definitely a cool idea.

I am glad you like it, but not sure why you feel it is a little thin. I think the information is about as conclusive as you can get without it being confirmed. Just too many coincidences for it to not be purposeful.

I mean do you understand how they are decoding the coordinates.

M = M
3 = Backwards E
R = R
D = D
1 = Looks kind of like an I
7 = Kind of looks like a slanted T
H = H

17 = The 17th Letter of the Alphabet is Q
21 = The 21st Letter of the Alphabet is U
+ = The plus sign just means the first letters get added to the 2nd letters
12 = The 12th Letter of the Alphabet is L
12 = The 12th Letter of the Alphabet is L
12 = The 12th letter of the Alphabet is L

24 = The 24th letter of the Alphabet is X

The sequence of details above matching in this way is very unlikely to be coincidental and the fact that the information for it was provided when they came across Knowhere, and it so obviously is referring to Ego as he was Meredith Quill's Ex, once again is just way too many coincidences for it to not be intentionally connected.

So, again not sure why you feel the information is thin.

Curious, and I like it. However, with battle forums we gotta use what is canon, you know?

If it isn't confirmed, it isn't confirmed and isn't credible in battle forums.

But it doesn't matter anyway because it doesn't make Ego any more, or less a Celestial either way. I may start to sway towards Ego. It really depends how fast can he create his planet-body. I feel Eson with the power gem could destroy Ego, but his brain would remain in tact. If so, we wonder if Ego can create matter and reform a planet around his brain, or incapacitate Eson during the processes. Ego is the brain, the Planet is his "armor".

If Ego is a celestial, and if your theory of Ego being the brain of knowhere, then we have to assume Eson is TOO just a brain. Except he created a massive suit of armor to protect his brain, instead of a planet like Ego.

If Ego was the celestial of Knowhere, then I think it would mean Ego is more powerful than Eson, assuming celestials are cosmic brains that create matter to form armor. Whatever body Knowhere came from likely dwarfs Eson. So, if Ego can create a being as big as the being of Knowhere, and a planet for a shield, and Eson can create a suit of armor that is only 1000 feet tall in comparison, the Ego would be more powerful. So with this said, I think my vote goes to Ego.

It just REALLY depends how he takes being hit by the power gem. It's the power gem, it's going to happen.

[iEquinox]

Don't think there is any logical way to choose either as the winner. All we know about Eson is that he was a celestial, just like Ego, and that he could wield the power stone in his staff. But so could Ronan, and Ego should have no problem wielding it either.

Eson's planet busting feat is a bit meaningless in this fight, because he used the power stone to do it(and I'm assuming he doesn't get it in this fight). Anyone who could wield it could have done the exact same thing, and like I said, Ego should have no problem doing that. I don't have any reason to believe that Ego would have any problems creating an Avatar similar to Eson's either.

They should both have the exact same abilities. The only thing that could separate them is intelligence or skill/training, and we know literally nothing whatsoever about Eson's intelligence or skill/training.

Since there is nothing to separate them, it is impossible to tell who is more powerful. For me, voting for either would be a total guess based on nothing but baseless assumptions.

If Ego is a celestial, and if your theory of Ego being the brain of knowhere, then we have to assume Eson is TOO just a brain. Except he created a massive suit of armor to protect his brain, instead of a planet like Ego.

Why are you assuming Eson's brain was in his avatar? Ego didn't carry it around in his avatars either, and I would think Eson would want to keep his brain somewhere safer, especially when he goes out on the warpath. Destroying civilisations is bound to catch the attention of some powerful beings, and just to be safe, why wouldn't he just create a huge avatar and hide his brain somewhere safe so that even if something happens(like another incredibly powerful being trying to stop him), he wouldn't die?

If Ego was the celestial of Knowhere, then I think it would mean Ego is more powerful than Eson, assuming celestials are cosmic brains that create matter to form armor. Whatever body Knowhere came from likely dwarfs Eson. So, if Ego can create a being as big as the being of Knowhere, and a planet for a shield, and Eson can create a suit of armor that is only 1000 feet tall in comparison, the Ego would be more powerful. So with this said, I think my vote goes to Ego.

There's nothing to suggest that Eson couldn't create a body of the same size though. I also didn't interpret the easter egg as "Knowhere was Ego's old body", but more as a foreshadowing of Peter's dad being a celestial. Just like the Dark Aster easter egg didn't mean that ship had anything to do with Quill's mom. I see it as a more indirect clue.

It just REALLY depends how he takes being hit by the power gem. It's the power gem, it's going to happen.

I was assuming Eson didn't get the Power Stone. If he gets it I'm voting for Eson, without a shadow of a doubt. We don't have any conclusive info at all about who would have the advantage over the other. But if one gets an Infinity Stone while the other does not, that would definitely be a massive advantage and imo that should give Eson the win by default. It wouldn't say anything about who's more powerful on their own though, which is why I was assuming he didn't get it.

 

[ludovica]

Both obviously cosmic tier.
I agree that Eson with an Infinity Stone takes this but I'm waiting to cast a vote: maybe someone will come in with scientific arguments. t:

 

[Surfer]

So why do the Dark Aster's coordinates also mention Meredith Quill?

T8IS IS1301319+31N3518
RESULT:THIS IS MOMS CANCER

A valid argument, but I feel like the "SHH" and the "This is Moms Cancer" are more about a subject of what than who and they are clues that are leading you to the answer which is discover when the Guardian's arrive at Knowhere, and it is revealed who is responsible.

If it isn't confirmed, it isn't confirmed and isn't credible in battle forums.

While I agree with you regarding something needing to be Canon, I don't necessarily agree with you regarding the confirmed part. There are many things we can't confirm in these battles and I don't think we should require an official confirmation for all things before we can make a decision on a subject. Unfortunately, this allows things to pass a little bit into a grey area of peoples perceptions, but it is absolutely required in order for these battles to work on a fundamental level.

Take for example the Hulkbuster Iron Man Vs. Abomination battle. Unless sometime later they are actually doing battle on screen in the MCU we have no way of knowing for sure what would happen in such a battle. Should we be required to wait for them to face off on screen to get some kind of official confirmation of their standings? No, it just doesn't make sense. So, instead we draw upon other details available like the Hulk Vs. Abomination fight and the Hulkbuster Vs. Hulk fight for us to come to a decision. Those things we draw upon are in the MCU movies and television so they are Canon and they help us to come to the best decision we can make based on our perceptions of that information.

The Ego / Knowhere thing is very much the same thing. Everything that appeared on screen is Canon and part of the MCU, but some people might perceive that Ego is part of Knowhere based on the evidence I presented and others may not. It is the same perception used when deciding on who wins the battles. The fans use the information provided on screen to come to a conclusion, will everyone see things the same all the time. No, which is the reason why the Killian Vs. Drax fight only had 2 votes separating them. Also, if everything was always an obvious answer then we would not need to have these battles to determine the outcome of their power levels. I would just make a list and tell everyone here is the official list.

So, Ultimately the battles are about the evidence on screen and how everyone digests that information differently and they come to what is hopefully a very informed but somewhat speculative answer in the end. Once again though the hope is that while the answers are speculative with enough people answering the same that it becomes more justified and more correct. The chances of one person having the wrong answer is much greater than 30 people having the wrong answer.

Anyways, if you disagree with me on this we can see what BigThor thinks on the subject as well.

Thanks!

It wouldn't say anything about who's more powerful on their own though, which is why I was assuming he didn't get it.

I was being rhetorical/hypothetical. You are reinforcing my points, because there isn' enough info on Eson the Searcher. We don't KNOW if Eson's giant body is an avatar (which in this case, is greater than Ego's avatar), or if he created the suit of arnor as a casing for his brain, like Ego did with the planet.

If Ego was Knowwhere, and knowwhere is the same race of celestial as eson, and Ego is a brain, am guessing Eson is a brain.

But my entire point is that we can create all sorts of theories and speculation around it why someone is superior, but all we have for that is what is concrete.

Ego is a celestial who can control matter on a planetary scale, and Eson wields the power gem in his only appearance.

That last paragraph is all we have to go by. So I still believe this fight depends on if Ego can rebuild his planet, protecting his brain faster than the power gem can destroy it, and if he can manipulate Eson's environment BEFORE Eson can slam his staff into the ground.
