Thor is a powerful vanguard in Marvel Rivals, excelling at initiating fights, disrupting enemy formations, and dealing consistent AoE damage. His kit revolves around controlling space with lightning abilities while using Mjolnir for both mobility and combat. As a frontline fighter with high durability, Thor excels at creating openings for his team and sustaining through prolonged engagements. His ultimate ability, God of Thunder, allows him to unleash devastating lightning strikes while gaining significant damage reduction.

How to play Thor in Marvel Rivals

To play Thor well, focus on using your mobility and crowd control to create opportunities for your team. Start engagements with Lightning Strike to close gaps quickly while dealing damage. Use Thunder Clap to disrupt enemy positions and create space for your team to follow up. Your basic attacks with Mjolnir deal consistent damage and help build ultimate charge.

Positioning is crucial for Thor despite his durability. Use Mjolnir Flight to reach advantageous positions or escape unfavorable situations. This ability also allows you to initiate from unexpected angles, making it harder for enemies to counter your engagements. When throwing Mjolnir, remember you can recall it to deal damage on its return path.

Timing your ultimate ability, God of Thunder, is essential for maximizing its impact in team fights. Activate it when enemies are grouped together or during objective contests - the combination of increased damage output and damage reduction makes Thor extremely threatening during its duration. Coordinate with your team to ensure they can capitalize on the chaos you create.

Thor Lore in Marvel Rivals

Boom. Thor sat in the Tower of Solitude, the library-prison once used by All-Father Odin. Hunched over a stone bench in a stone room, the Tower's sole prisoner on the orders of his brother, he fumed silently, waiting for the chance to act, and fearing what fate might befall Asgard if he could not act soon. Boom. From outside came rhythmic impacts, as something powerful hurled itself against the tower's walls. Thor could only wait. Loki had outwitted him, duping him into entering the Tower and imprisoning him there. As one might expect of a clever usurper such as Loki, the room was enchanted to stifle any sound he might utter. Boom. Dust and mortar drifted from one wall of Thor's cell. He stood. It was almost time. Loki might have betrayed him and made his devious play for the throne of Asgard, but even Loki could not think of everything. Boom. It had not occurred to him, for example, that Thor could call Mjölnir without making a sound. BOOM Mjölnir exploded through the wall of the Tower of Solitude and met Thor's extended hand. He gave a shout, relieved to hear the sound of his voice again....Read Thor's full Marvel Rivals lore
