Thor Abilities and Ultimate

Thor’s not your typical tank. He’s a Vanguard who cares more about dealing damage and pushing enemies around than shielding his team. He’s still a tank because he’s got a massive health pool and can take a beating, but he plays way more aggressively.

How to Play Thor: Combos and Tactics

Think of Thor as a Vanguard who fights like a damage dealer. He’s great at punishing enemies who get too close or wander off alone. In big team fights, he’s a nightmare to deal with. Thor’s core mechanic revolves aroundThorforce, which grants bonus health when consumed. Managing this properly is key to staying alive and dealing consistent damage.

This rotation keeps you in fights longer, messes up enemy teams, and puts constant pressure on them.

Pro tip for your Ultimate:Use Storm Surge to jump up in the air above your targets, then hit your Ultimate while you’re still airborne.

But if you position yourself smart, use Storm Surge at the right times, and nail your Ultimate timing, Thor becomes a tank that’s both impossible to kill and deadly as hell.
