All Abilities of Thor in Marvel Rivals
Thor possesses some extraordinary abilities in Marvel Rivals, and here are all of them:
How To Play Thor in Marvel Rivals?
Thor’s Mobility
Thor comes with moderate mobility. It might be a disappointment that Thor doesn’t have vertical mobility. However, one of his abilities, Storm Surge, allows you to swing Mjölnir to traverse across the battlefield.
Storm Surge allows you to spin Mjölnir faster and attack the enemies on your front. Since this is a chargeable move, you can cover a long distance if you are charged long enough. Besides the Storm Surge, Thor doesn’t have any notable mobility features.
Thor’s Survivability
Thor is a Vanguard, which means he works great at absorbing incoming damage. With a base health of 500, Thor has a good endurance for incoming attacks. Thor’s abilities are designed to take out a group of low-health opponents single-handedly.
When combined with any Vanguard or supported by a Strategist, he will become a nightmare for opponents, especially when he is in Awakened state. Activating the Awakening Rune grants him an extra chunk of health during a specific period.
Thor Playstyle and Combos
Thor is a Vanguard and is specially designed for the rush attack strategy. This brave and aggressive warrior is extremely strong in close-mid-range battles. With proper support from teammates, he can easily take out a large number of foes.
You can get the most out of Thor by following this combo: Start off with Hammer Throw to deal some ranged damage from mid-long range. Then get close to the enemies with Storm Surge and use Lightning Realm to quickly recharge your Thorforce. Then activate the Awakening Rune to deal more damage, while also receiving extra health.
When all is done, activate the ultimate ability, ‘God of Thunder,’ to jump into the air and smite the enemies by charging Mjölnir. ArdentMCUfans would have already noticed that this ultimate ability is reminiscent of Thor’s attack from the Avengers: Infinity War movie.
Best Team Composition With Thor in Marvel Rivals
Unlike most other characters in the game, Thor is a part of two separateteam-up abilities, which makes him versatile in pairing with other characters. Hela, Loki, Storm, and Captain America will share a perfect synergy with Thor and make up a good team composition. The team-up ability ‘Odinson Reborn’ allows Hela to resurrect Thor and Loki when landing a final hit on an enemy.
The Thunderous Deity, another team-up ability of Thor, allows him to share his Thorforce and Electric powers with Storm and Captain America. This grants them an electrifying enhancement and significantly enhances their attacks for several seconds.
Thor Counters in Marvel Rivals
Although Thor is strong and powerful in close-mid-range combat, he is vulnerable to long-range attacks. This means that characters with the best long-range attacks, such as Hela, Iron Man, Storm, Hawkeye, and Black Widow, are effective in countering the mighty Thor.
As for close range,The Punisherwill be a hindrance for Thor. Since Thor is big and can’t cover the distance as quickly, The Punisher’s huge arsenal of weapons can pose a huge threat to Thor, unless he unleashes Awakening Rune.
