This one is a pretty easy one.  Get six blue AP.  Stun Thanos.  Repeat until dead.   My LT gave me a Thing, putting him at LVL 299.

Or, if you're very lucky like my son with his 1/2/4 Gamora, get her passive to trigger by making all of the purple tiles special, and instantly kill him.  That took place right after Thanos cascaded into a match-5, and brought his Gamora down to about 2K health.  Another stun, a black, and hoping that the next match didn't bring down a purple.  BOOM!  Down goes Thanos.  He got a War Machine cover from his token.

    Yeah I got the insta-kill with my 285 champed gamora pretty early on. Can’t complain.

    I almost never use Gamora - mine's level 168 - so I forgot what she can do.  I figured I'd play a round at work and see how bad I lost and what boosts I might need for a rematch.  I won, but it was very close.  I ended with 281 health remaining.  The token gave me... another Gamora, which will take her to level 188 one of these days!

    First time this ran, I had like Three Gamora covers. Fortunately one of them was black and I was able to win by triggering Deadliest Woman.

    This time it was much easier with Gamora around level 300. Stun, stun, stun, and use the other Powers too.

    It took me four tries.  The first three boards were green heavy and light on blue and red.  Finally, fourth board was the opposite.  My level 172 (5/1/2) was able to incapacitate, strike, and repeat for the win.  

    LT was quite appropriate: red cover for Legendary Outlaw Star Lord, allowing me to level him up to 115.

    My lvl 271 Gamora cruised it first time - Thanos is just a bit too slow for these one on ones when you have nimble characters like Gamora and of course his black is utterly redundant.

    5/3/5 Lv 283 Gamora

    Figured this would be a cakewalk and didn't bring any boosts. Then the board fell and it was almost entirely yellow, green, and purple. Okay... I figured I'd just start clearing that out and the colors I'd need would start to fall. Nope. I never got enough blue to stun. Never got a single red match. Got enough black to fire that once, but it was hardly enough. Meanwhile, Thanos' green and purple countdown tiles managed to find themselves in unmatchable corners. I lost. I lost big time.

    Telling myself the universe was not out to get me, I used a health pack and tried again. The second time around, purple was rarer than adamantium and I managed to get all the purple tiles covered with specials. You know what happened after that.

    3/5/5 Lvl 283. Lots of blue on the board, some red, little black or green. Had Thanos Stun-locked most of the time, and my red chipping away for a while too. He did manage to fire his purple once, but matched it away immediately.
    Token waiting at least for Kitty, Nebula, and Dazzler to enter tokens.

    3/5/5 lvl 296. Superb board gave me a blue match 5 straight off, that dropped a cascade. I had to leave Thanos a purple critical tile match, but stunned him on my second turn . By the time he recovered I was able to hit him with red then black. Annoyingly two blank purples dropped when I made my match, but Thanos kindly opted to commit suicide by matching them both away. Token was a champ level for Mockingbird.

    5/3/5 level 282. The board decided it liked me a lot better than Thanos, and dropped a ton of red and black. I never did earn enough blue to stun him, but two castings of black and one red pretty much sealed the deal. It was one of the fastest crashes I've had.

    I earned a shiny yellow Okoye for my troubles, bringing the fearsome warrior up to 2/4/1.

    Apparently my MPQ Gamora was much more capable than the MCU version of her, as a Lv280 5/3/5 easily won.  He fired off a purple once, but once it expired she did a red slice and a blue stun, killing him before he ever recovered.   

    The token gave a Teen Jean champ level.
