MCU: Every Hero Vs Hero Fight Ranked Worst To Best

17. Gamora Vs Star-Lord (Avengers: Endgame)

It took time for Gamora and Peter Quill to ever truly get on the same page. She despised him to begin with, claiming he was dishonourable and despicable, and though it took the saving of Xandar together for them to become teammates, their unspoken bond was never acknowledged until after Yondu’s death.

Gamora only ever said ‘I love you’ to Peter just before she was taken away by Thanos, which would ultimately be the last time she ever saw him. This version of Gamora at least, as the two were weirdly reunited in the final battle of Avengers: Endgame.

Though this Peter Quill had been through everything with Gamora, this version of Thanos’ daughter had never met him before. She had just been blasted into 2023 from 2014, and had absolutely no sentimental connections to Star-Lord whatsoever. In fact, she had pretty much the same first impression of him as her original version.

When Peter went to embrace Gamora, who he thought was dead, she kneed him in the groin not once, but twice. She missed the first time, but got both the second time. It wasn’t so much a fight as it was a swift kick to the balls.
