Probably Doctor Strange. Brilliant, and has a broad range of spells that can accomplish pretty much anything in your list to some extent.

stanthemanchan2025-09-25 19:12

Also, his super power is making circles, so he's pretty well rounded in the literal sense.

CaptHayfever2025-09-25 22:46

But Mr. Fantastic can make *himself* a circle.

RoyalCod32025-09-25 20:18

He is a glass cannon as in he has no strength, no durability and no speed in the physical sense.

25sittinon25cents2025-09-26 11:34

Can't he cast spells to enhance his strength, durability and speed?

RoyalCod32025-09-26 12:57

So far, we didn't see such a thing.

25sittinon25cents2025-09-27 00:05

I mean, those would be very basic spells compared to what we've seen him do already

r01-85062025-09-25 13:47

Iron Man. Those stats, he has them all via his armors and AI (eg. super fast computing), plus resources and genius intellect. He could create "Busters" to match with the other heavy hitters. Invent things as needed. Do many things simultaneously, like with his AIs and drone armors.

What he doesn't have is magic (as one Commenter already picked Dr. Strange). The others from your list, for example, would have hard times to solve tech problems or even stymied.

igby12025-09-25 15:02

In the comics what busters did he create other than the hulkbuster?

I haven’t read the comics.

hell20_2025-09-25 16:38

Thorbuster and Fing fang foom buster are two of them that I can instantly remember. He did make many more. I think there was one Celestial buster too but that wasn't it's name.

AnonymousFriend802025-09-25 22:50

Galactus buster. He even had a Destroyer armor. And an armor made with the same stuff as Thor's hammer.

RoyalCod32025-09-25 20:22

What you mentioned are through his armors. If he has no armor, he is very vulnerable physically.

He does have high stats in intelligence, willpower and technology.

Immediate-Diet-80272025-09-26 05:22

Especially if you take his end game nanotech

OkThatWasMyFace2025-09-25 13:59

Both Captains America. Strong sense of justice, well-rounded fighters, trusted leadership.

RoyalCod32025-09-25 20:36

I would have added Captain America-Steve Rogers, but since he is not present in the MCU anymore, I didn't add him.

stanthemanchan2025-09-25 22:49

Steve Rogers' shield is well rounded but John Walker's shield is more of a taco shape now.

AnonymousFriend802025-09-25 22:50

Weak to bullets.

youdontknowdan2025-09-25 14:07

Black Panther needs to be on that list somewhere.

RoyalCod32025-09-25 20:24

Without his suit, he is not on that list.

youdontknowdan2025-09-25 20:39

Without the suit I agree he is no Thor but surely above Saml Wilson.

RoyalCod32025-09-25 20:49

I think you are right. I now think he does belong on that list without his suit if he were present in the MCU.

But, Shuri ended up very similar to him in terms of stats without her suit too which I am going to add her as number 7.

Good call :)

youdontknowdan2025-09-25 20:40

What is Shang Chi without the rings?

RoyalCod32025-09-25 20:52

Yes, I already took that into account when making the list. He is still the same without the rings except for power, durability, and somewhat speed.

Outrageous-Farmer-422025-09-25 15:07

Scarlet Witch doesn't even count as a superhero anymore, right? She's been a villain in 2 movies and 2 shows now.

PCofSHIELD2025-09-25 15:29

She was a villain in 1 movie and was the villain/hero in 1 tv show, Marvel Zombies doesn’t count because she was a zombie nearly every Avenger was a villain

RoyalCod32025-09-25 20:25

She is not on that list because she is a glass cannon as in she has no strength, no durability and no speed in the physical sense.

DeltaAlphaGulf2025-09-25 16:50

Hmm... idk about ranking them but Iron Man, Vision, Monica Rambeau, and Doctor Strange are good. All smart with some versatility, powerful, and ability to lead and handle combat scenarios. Thor and Captain Marvel are powerhouses but less smart. Smart Hulk has good brains and brawn but not so well suited in personality or versatility. Others are lacking power or mindset. Maybe worthy Cap and Sam Cap. I suppose Jane Thor as well. Maybe some of the Eternals.

RoyalCod32025-09-25 20:32

Superheroes who are glass cannons, like Dr. Strange and Scarlet Witch, I don't count them among that list since they are vulnerable in the physical sense as in they have no strength, no durability and no speed.

Superheroes who need a suit to fight like Iron Man and Black Panther, I don't count them among that list either. But, I would have added T'Challa if he was presently in the MCU since he still has some physical prowess in combat without the suit and already have high intelligence, leadership, willpower and the technology.

Vision and Captain America can be among that list if they were present, but since they are not in the MCU anymore, I didn't add them.

DeltaAlphaGulf2025-09-25 22:16

I consider well rounded not just a stat thing but also a matter of the range of things you can handle. So Strange has the power and versatility to still handle a wide variety of things including physically powerful and even more so when he still had the time stone. I didn’t include Wanda because she went evil when she was really there and thus not a hero. I probably wouldn't include Storm for example because her power versatility doesn’t provide quite the same coverage as them imo.

Excluding anyone just because they use a suit seems entirely arbitrary. Black Panther is simply not powerful enough but Tony definitely is. He might be the most well rounded of the bunch tbh.

RoyalCod32025-09-25 23:12

Still using magic with no physical defense and durability of their own.

If Dr. Strange, Scarlet Witch and Iron Man with no suit got hit, which is always possible to happen in a battle, they will be KO'ed because of no enough strength, speed and durability, hence they're not on the list.

On the other hand, T'Challa, Shuri, Steve Rogers and Sam Wilson still have more physical combat prowess and a bit more of speed and durability (Durability from hand to hand combat), and what make them on the list is the big push of their high intelligence, leadership and willpower which I'm only adding the ones present in the MCU.

If Dr. Strange, Scarlet Witch and Iron Man have at least some strength and durability physically of their own, they would be have been on the list.

DeltaAlphaGulf2025-09-26 00:18

Doctor Strange has magic to defend himself in a plethora of ways including armor though not that we have seen armor (as opposed to shields) from main Strange yet. If it's MoM Scarlett the damage won't matter even if it hits if you recall her escaping that glass dimension trap thing (again I wasn't including her because she was a villain anyway, and wasn't ready before that). Again separating Tony from his suit just seems arbitrary especially when you turn around and include the much weaker Black Panther who is also reliant on a suit not to just be a bullet victim and Cap (assuming you aren't including Mjolnir) who doesn't even have a suit and is a bullet victim. While I would include Sam thanks to the suit as it goes a long way but that makes it even weirder that you are excluding Tony for the same thing.

Seems like you're all around criteria is significantly weighted toward innate physical stats and martial skill.

AnonymousFriend802025-09-25 22:52

While Thor may not be creating a lot of fancy tech and devices like Stark and Banner, he's quite itelligent.

DeltaAlphaGulf2025-09-25 23:05

I didn't say he was dumb and he probably knows about a lot of things due to his age and upbringing in a highly advanced society but I wouldn't exactly want him on detective duty. Part of it is just his personality and demeanor that makes him further less suited for intellectual matters even if he was capable of it.

AnonymousFriend802025-09-25 23:16

He had a pretty decent time explaining things to Jane in the first movie.

DeltaAlphaGulf2025-09-26 00:24

Thats fair although iirc it was relatively high overhead view sort of concept stuff that I would place under the knowledgeable and highly advanced society sort of thing. Its like understanding Hulks explanation of time travel vs understanding whatever sort of calculating Tony was trying out to solve the time travel gps issues.

Zyffrin2025-09-25 18:41

No one mentioned Spider-Man?

In terms of physical attributes like strength, speed, durability, reflexes, etc., he's as well-rounded as it gets. Not to mention his Spider-Sense, wall-crawling, and genius-level IQ, which make him a truly versatile combatant.

His main weakness is that he doesn't have any real defence against magic, but you can say the same about almost every MCU hero.

RoyalCod32025-09-25 20:34

He is almost on that list if he had the willpower much higher. Plus, he doesn't seem the type to take things in charge if a catastrophic circumstance were to happen.

PSN-Colinp422025-09-26 04:54

Yeah…willpower is like Spider-Man’s defining characteristic…

Novel-Performer-42592025-09-28 02:48

Spiderman never quits bro. He gets whooped and comes back immediately even if he know he will probably die. His willpower is up there with anyone. Its Cap-like.

TokyoSky002025-09-25 23:38

hes strength speed and durability aint close to other heroes thats why

kuschelig692025-09-25 22:33

Spider-Man, no doubt.
