I'm just saying that it really seems unlikely that half of the stones are gonna be on Earth, it just really feels like Marvel wouldn't do that. And Black Panther can talk to the spirits of those who held the Black Panther mantle by using his ring, which they showed a bit during CW (not the spirit talking the ring). My bet is that Hela probably has it and maybe she'll willingly give Thanos it, I have no idea lol. The Space Stone didn’t originate on Earth. It was left on Earth by Odin in ancient times.

I think they could put three stones on Earth, because that would be a reason why Earth is so important to Thanos. It’s heavily rumored, and it makes sense, that Thanos will be defeated in Infinity War, causing him to retreat until Avengers 4. So either way, if Thanos goes to Earth without stones in Infinity War, he would be defeated because the Avengers have half, causing his defeat and sending him to retrieve the other three for a rematch. Or Thanos does have half the stones when he attacks, and he and the Avengers would be evenly matched, drawing out the battle for two movies. But I would have to say they would go the no stones approach, which would be why he would be gone for Ant-Man and the Wasp and Captain Marvel.

And yes I did hear that the ring supposedly has powers. I just thought it was the equivalent to a crown. T’Challa already has a suit made of vibranium and we know he already he had enhanced level combat skills before he wore the ring (if you watch the bomb scene, T’Challa leaps across the room to shield his father).

I did hear a rumor that Hela would double as Death to be Thanos’s love interest, so her giving it to Thanos makes some sense.

If Hela does end up with the stone, where did she get it from?
