Is MCU Thanos really such a fearsome badass? If so then why do Ronan and Nebula casually brag about being able to kill him?

They brag because of their egos.

ronan isnt the sanest man around
he was also cowering in fear at first, right after killing the alien guy who loki was afraid of
he assumed he could kill thanos because he had the power stone, a stone that could destroy an entire planet, so its not like his bravado was unjustified
its worth noting that even with the power stone, thanos only seemed mildly annoyed with ronan
for nebula, she hates thanos, and for all her talk about wanting to kill him, she spent a very long time at his side without ever making a move, implying that she isnt quite confident in her ability to harm him, even with surprise at her side
drax also wants to kill thanos, but he wasnt even a match for drax, who in turn was not a match for thanos, so its not like claiming you can kill someone automatically makes you capable of that

>match for drax
oops, i meant a match for ronan
>>92759736
>drax wasn't even a match for drax
depression can be a bitch

Nebula can't even kill Gamora.
>>92759659
They underestimate him because they've never seen a demonstration of his true power.

They probably think tales of his strength are just exaggerations to keep his subordinates in line, started by him, after all, it's what they'd do if they were top dog.

Thanos doesn't give a fuck, his only motivation is to kill as many people as possible, he'd love it if Ronan brought a trillion strong army to fight his trillion strong army and they all die.

Ronan is pretty strong, I think. They crashed a ship into him and he came out fine.
They were only able to beat him because they had a magic stone that could kill anything.
Thanos is a fucking joke. He's only a threat when he has the infinity gauntlet
