The Battle of Wakanda was one of the defining moments of Thanos' quest for the Infinity Stones. His army of Outriders, led by Cull Obsidian and Proxima Midnight, engaged the Avengers in a bloodbath on the battlefield as Shuri tried to separate the Mind Stone from Vision's head.

It wasn't until Captain America, Black Panther and co. became overwhelmed by the Mad Titan's forces trying to take the final stone that Wanda left Vision's side to join the battle, completely turning the tide in the process.

She had already stopped the Black Order from taking the stone in Scotland, and now she was defending it across the globe in Wakanda. Using the villains' monstrous Threshers against them, huge weapons that would have killed every living thing on the battlefield, she destroyed a huge portion of the Outrider army before launching Proxima Midnight into the same machine, killing her instantly.

When Thor arrived with Stormbreaker in Wakanda, Bruce Banner proclaimed that Thanos' forces were screwed, but it wasn't until Wanda joined the battle that the game truly changed. This was when she threw her hat in the ring for the title of strongest Avenger.
