You don't need to break up the replies to more quotations each time. It was two, then three, now four.
]QS didn't seem to do badly in Apocalypse in the same situation until he chose to stupidly attack Apocalypse head-on. This is what I mean by how super-speed is such a plot-breaking power you have to write the speedsters as idiots.
Quicksilver was not put into the same situation. He had two action scenes, one involved an house explosion where he transported people outside like The Flash did with the hostages and the other was when he fought Apocalypse one on one.
The Flash was in the middle of trying to save hostages, assist Wonder Woman, deal with countless aliens flying around shooting lasers and a huge flood and having a one on one with the most powerful being around.
The same thing with them being idiots applies to MCU Quicksilver when he somehow thought it was a good idea to try and catch a large hammer in mid air causing him to defeat...himself.
You must really hate Dormammu, Ego, Ronan, Hela and Thanos.
But that's not what I'm referring to, I know Captain America is a great character but when it comes to the action scenes in the Avengers movies, he has been largely useless. He constantly gets beaten up and loses to characters that portrayed as weaklings to some of the other Avengers.
And there was no reason why Steppenwolf couldn't outmatch them. He's been shown to be too much for Wonder Woman in the comics just the same.

Having your bad guy be all-powerful right from the start just seems lazy to me...

They make up for that in other ways. And him being great in his own movies. There's more to a character than raw power, and if they're outmatched in power you make them interesting in other ways.
It is a problem when said character really shouldn't outmatch them (Steppenwolf).
