Thor is a dynamic character, adept at both taking and dealing damage in equal measure. A frontline fighter of the Vanguard persuasion, Thor uses Thorforce as a resource, performing ranged attacks, moving around the map with Mjolnir, rebuilding it to deal increased damage, gain Bonus Health, and ultimately Awaken, allowing him to deliver a flurry of ranged blows to enemies, shredding their health bars.
While Thor has a base health of 625, using Thorforce can get him up to a cap of 825, making you much tougher. Because this effect is caused by spending Thorforce and not hitting enemies, you can actually juice your health to max before entering battle by using Hammer Throw twice, then charging Storm Surge.
Once you hit enemies with Storm Surge, perform a melee hit to restore your Thorforce to maximum and unleash the Awakening Rune and start chaining melee attacks on Strategists (then Duelists) to make a huge impact on the fight.
The ultimate goal in every fight is to Awaken, but rotating between using abilities and melee attacks will keep your Bonus Health churning, which is what makes a great Thor feel unkillable to enemy players.
While certainly not as impactful (no pun intended) as other offensive Ultimates, Thor’s is still solid when used right. When initiating a push with your team, be sure to target healers and hover over them for the duration of the ultimate, coming down with a crash when the time is right.
With these tips in hand, I’m sure you are electrified with Thor’s potential. Thunder across the battlefield and feel your enemies quake in fear. Good luck!
