"He was." Yondu says simply, nearly too quick in how big a threat Ego was, though there's a tone to it that's a little grim, that previous admiration ebbing.

"He was... well, bigger than I can understand. Think on the level of that God of Destruction. I got to help kill 'im before I wound up here but the whole universe woulda been a much better place if I'd found someone and managed it sooner."

The whole of the Ravager fleet could have done it, he's pretty sure, but he blew his chance for that.
