In a Zeus vs Thor scenario, Zeus would probably end up the victor, but the same goes for his son, Hercules. Technically speaking, he's only a demigod, but, if any biceps could outsize Thor's, then it is the Herculators.
So while Zeus' best feat is defeating a mountain-sized monster, Odin's best feat is defeating a monster as big as nine worlds. Odin outclasses Zeus in intelligence, versatility, strength, and weapons. Zeus simply can't compete. The winner is Odin, All-Father of the Æsir.
Odin. Even at the time of his MCU debut, Thor wasn't the MCU's strongest character. That title, at that time, belonged to Anthony Hopkins' Odin. The patriarch of the Norse pantheon and the King of Asgard, Odin possessed an incalculable degree of power in the MCU, even at his advancing age.
Zeus would have the home turf advantage in this fight, as he rarely leaves Olympus. However, he's also just not used to fighting like Thor is. Zeus is certainly more powerful than Thor in many ways, but he's not a fighter like Thor is.
As Skyfather of Olympus, Zeus wields power comparable to Odin, whose wrath Thanos has withstood but not bested. At the same time, Zeus cannot truly die. While the most powerful of Olympians can be badly wounded or even dismembered, he can never actually pass on into oblivion.
The Olympian and the Asgardian are evenly matched in terms of both strength and durability. For comparison, both Thor and Hercules' durability and raw power pale in comparison to the likes of Zeus - a low-key but crucial Thor: Love and Thunder spoiler for any future outings of the Olympians.
He has centuries of battle experience, the hones skills of a warrior, and one of the most powerful weapons in the universe. Putting it all together, Thor can win against the Hulk, even if he can't kill the Jade Giant.
Following Thor: Love and Thunder, it's very easy to say that Thor is close to being as powerful as Odin, if not even more powerful. While Odin wasn't very active in the MCU, he was still regarded as one of the most powerful characters in the MCU, if only because he had long since had that status in the comics.
Portrayed by Anthony Hopkins, Odin is the powerful ruler of the Nine Realms who has sworn to protect every kingdom under his rule. With Odin still ruling Asgard, Thanos would have easily been stopped had he made a play for the Infinity Gauntlet.
Odin would beat thor a hundred times before it ever came down to a fight, but if it ever somehow came down to a legit fight, thor would beat his old man.
He is stronger than humans by enormous degrees and can overpower many monsters and beasts, as he did with the Nemean Lion. His incredible strength surpasses even some Olympians, with only his father Zeus and other greater gods like Poseidon and Hades being stronger.
Hermes is the son of Zeus and Maia. He is Zeus messenger. He is the fastest of the gods. He wears winged sandals, a winged hat, and carries a magic wand.
Nyx, in Greek mythology, female personification of night but also a great cosmogonical figure, feared even by Zeus, the king of the gods, as related in Homer's Iliad, Book XIV.
The Fates (Moirai) are more powerful than even Zeus. In the words of the poet Quintus of Smyrna, "To the Moirai, the might of Zeus must bow..." Another who is capable of defeating Zeus is Zeus himself. If his hubris is too much, he will be humbled.
Steve Rogers is one of the few mortals able to not only lift Mjolnir, but wield its full power, making him someone who legitimately could defeat Thor. Assuming the reason for their battle is due to Thor being deceived, possessed, or otherwise out of his mind, Cap would be able to use Mjolnir against him.
9 Thor Is Stronger Than Thanos But That Doesn't Mean He Can Beat Him. Thor and Thanos have tangled several times over the years, with Thanos being one of the few beings that Thor can't beat in a fight.
While Thor is one of the mightiest gods in the Marvel Universe, he is still no match for the unparalleled power of Superman. However, even the Man of Steel admitted that Thor could be almost at his same level. Maybe the outcome of their battle would be different in other circumstances.
The simple answer is no. Yes, Hulk absolutely smashes Thor to the ground with Mjolnir, but, he's holding both Thor and the hammer. Hulk wouldn't have been able to lift Mjolnir by himself, but since the God of Thunder had a firm grip on it as well, he was able to use it as a weapon against his teammate.
Thanos and Hulk have clashed several times in Marvel lore, with Thanos even admitting he was scared to face the Hulk before acquiring the Infinity Stones. While Thanos is usually the victor, it's generally down to him using superior tactics and technology, rather than simply possessing greater physical strength.
He's basically a stronger black Adam with a magical god-killing weapon. Thor also has more feats to show that he's stronger and would win. Although, Adam is very formidable because of his ruthlessness and his speed.
On their own, both these noble heroes are capable of beating incredible forces. But for all Shazam's power, he does not match Thor's experience in using the more arcane elements of his abilities.
Hercules is very strong but that's pretty much it. While he's a demi-god, he doesn't really have a magic weapon or skill he can use beyond his strength and that's going to cost him against Superman. It's debatable whose stronger, although Superman probably has the advantage, but all Hercules can do is hit hard.
