Though not inherently ultra-destructive weapons, the Pym Particles are undeniably some of the most useful and potent items in the MCU.

The subatomic particles can be used to shrink and embiggen the mass of a desired target, whether friend or foe, during a combat situation.

The benefit of being able to grow to the size of a skyscraper or shrink an enemy down to the size of an insect speaks for itself, though the Pym Particles' true genius lies in allowing the user access to the Quantum Realm.

More to the point, in Avengers: Endgame the particles were instrumental in facilitating time travel in order to un-do the Blip.

And on the other side of the coin, 2014 Thanos (Josh Brolin) himself used the particles to travel to 2023 with his entire army, showing just how extensively they can be weaponised.

Given both their combat usefulness and ability to let the user literally erase undesirable outcomes, the Pym Particles are easily one of the most versatile creations in the entire universe.
