He was literally chained next to the ASOE with a chain that was, quite foreseeably, easily broken. Also turning into Snarf Ra didn't drain Mumm Ra as Mumm Ra would have known his power was siphoned. Its not as if Mumm Ra's hideout was the next town over it was some significant distance. Even if it was close, Mumm Ra would have noticed the power slip while fighting Lion-O, who he had the element of surprise over in the first place. Who ties up their enemy next to their literal well of power with so much time and planning on your side, and leaves them there unattended? Who? I can't get over that. |
On reflection, you make some good points, and they have caused me to reconsider this entire situation...
Snarf was literally chained next to the ASOE with a chain that was, quite foreseeably, easily broken, just as you say... Who ties up their enemy next to their literal well of power and leaves them there unattended...?
In fact, have you considered that Mumm-Ra knew exactly what he was doing -- and did this all intentionally? Think about it. Snarf had to call upon what -- the Ancient Spirits of Evil -- to effect his grand rescue. Precisely like Mumm-Ra knew he would.
Using that kind of dark power, like reading the Necronomicon or summoning the Cenobites, does not come without consequence. I submit that what appears to you to be a tactical blunder was in actuality a strategic master stroke. Mumm-Ra is playing the long game, slowly corrupting the ThunderCats... from within.
And as for this...

There's no shame in taking this L. That was the Demolisher, dude. The Greatest Warrior in the Galaxy.
If Lion-O was able to take Demolisher down in the end, it's because the battle with Mumm-Ra had already pushed him to the limit.
