His right click absolutwly should be getting weaved in if theres any gaps in melee combat. It gives the blue hammer so your next hit will replenish the spent thorforce. also, it does 70 damage! its basically an awakening rune hit, without spending 3 thorforce and locking yourself into it

[@YourKingSkeletor]

In most cases I spam shift purely to annoy the enemy (often their tank) by dragging them around messing up their positioning. I use the hammer throw occassionally and rarely use awakening simply due to the lock into it.

The reason why most people think Thor ult is terrible is because it takes too long to happen. The ult takes like 4 ish seconds to happen, which is more than enough time for someone to react to the ult by either using an escape ability (movement or invulnerability), interrupting it with a cc ability or just trading it with another ult. If your fighting against a good team with at least decent awareness it makes getting a kill with the ult basically impossible. Best result you'll get with the ult is either making some space with it or maybe forcing a ult out of the enemy team, although even that isn't guaranteed. Sorry about the yap session but even in middle ranks like plat I rarely ever get a kill with this ult.

[@woopig4419]

It’s great combined with a strange ult or groot ult. I wiped a whole team a few days ago with a dr strange teammate

[@tonyluong6732]

​@woopig4419 it makes space, thor is by far the best space control character and if people play him like that then his ult makes sense, I break formations and separate groups all the time with it then usually get a healer kill.

[@kamikeserpentail3778]

E then Q. That's 80 damage instantly and a 30% slow. If they don't get out by the time you come down they're taking 220 more. And frequently you use it right after a melee hammer throw. That's 45+70 damage. So 195 basically instantly with 220 incoming while they're slowed. Even vanguards don't want to just sit and take that.

[@dnkndonutts8662]

ignore right click? what do you do when youre in someones face and hitting them, why would you not use the right click in between attacks. it does more dmg than a fully charged shift and you get the thor force back right after since you are in their face. how do you play thor and not know this

[@mustysmells817]

when your isolated with healing then yes, but you'd rather be moving as much as possible and darting around when diving rather than getting an extra bit of damage and taking more damage than youre supposed to.

[@dnkndonutts8662]

@ nah absolutely not, if you actually played against some competent players the shift movement is not going to reduce much dmg if any at all, what’s it’s gonna do is reposition your enemy and yourself in to unfavorable positions for you, that is if you only use the shift in between basic attacks like this video suggest (ignore right click) instead you should opt for right click and only shift if you see a point in using a shift, example is pushing the enemy away from their support or team in general or pushing them into your team. If you’re just mindlessly throwing your shift and again “ignoring your right click” you are actively putting yourself at more risk and reducing your damage out put. And the dmg is pretty substantial as well becuase, one the shift does no damage if you don’t charge it and the charge takes forever and two and MOST importantly even if you don’t charge the shift at all you still get a waaay longer animation than just throwing out the right click, giving you less time to do more basic attacks. And then lastly with the short cooldown of two seconds for these abilities the damage difference stacks up FAST especially if youre trying to hit a tank. Now what you said about the 1v1. Youre actually completely wrong cause let us put on our thinking caps real quick. What does the shift do. It stuns but only the one enemy youre hitting. So if you’re in an isolated 1v1 you can use your shift more to stop your opponent from hitting you. Now if you’re in a team fight the value of that stun goes down as you’re basically trading this one enemies damage for your damage, while their team is still hitting you like crazy. And now for my last point, every right click or shift you do you get 100 shield, so in team fight you’d wanna get as much of that as possible. Using right clicks in between combos gets you slightly less cooldown than using your shift in between combos. So with all that said right click is a very important tool for Thor even tho by it self it is very dogshit. DO NOT IGNORE IT. Basically always use it when hitting enemies with your hammer and only use shift when there’s actually a reason to and practice hitting the right click cuase if you miss it the cooldown is actually longer since it takes longer to fly back. Thank you for reading me yap this guy should really include some of this in the video

[@kamaripeart1768]

Thor is only my secondary, i would play Hulk mostly, but shift can push them into your team, disrupt their position, disrupt their movement, definitely makes you harder to hit/cc in my experience, can counter pin and it is a little easier to land. But saying that i wouldn't ignore the hammer throw. @dnkndonutts8662

[@kamikeserpentail3778]

​@@dnkndonutts8662and actually this combo does only 3dps less than Awakening Rune, while generating more shields. It would never be worth using Awakening Rune, except the attacks Pierce and you get a damaging aura. But you can't generate hammers while Awakening Rune is active so you're really trading survivability for AoE damage.

[@darronsutton6900]

Somebody didn't watch the whole video😂

[@NoodleTactics]

A very important tip. At the end of awakening rune, there is a like half second window where your dash and throw are off cooldown. You can use this to keep up pressure and restore your thorforce by dashing into them and using your bubble. This can put you back to max thorforce if you hit enough ppl with the bubble. Hope this helps!

[@ytubeanon]

interesting, would you use this like awakening, dash, bubble, awakening, dash, basic attack, awakening do you use quick or long dash, may be situational

[@NoodleTactics]

@ytubeanon The thing is that you really can't just dash in, bubble, and awaken against competent players without dying. I think you just dash in and bubble, then dash out immedietly and awaken from afar again. I think the creator of this video greatly overvalues the dmg aura of awakening since thor is so vulnerable in his awakened state

[@3legreg]

⁠@@NoodleTacticsif your diving backline that proximity damage could be huge. But in a big team fight entering ranged mode is very dangerous. I didnt know about the proximity. Ima go use ranged mode more aggressively when diving and see if the supports are dying quicker or I am

[@NoodleTactics]

@@3legreg Yeah I found recently that awakening is really good when you have an isolated fight with 1-2 squishies even if you're on top of them. After you can use the dash to somewhere safe, or engage on another enemy and use bubble to reup your hammers

[@morenoalv3105]

Fyi: Do not play Thor as the lone tank. I assume the video means he's the best solo queue tank, not an actual solo tank. Best solo tank is Strange or Magneto since they won't get shredded by characters like Hela and Hawkeye. He's like a super tanky dps hero, who can absolutely harass the backline better than Venom can. He does stupid damage, can survive encounters with multiple enemies and compliments other tanks very well. I'd argue he's the best 1v1 character in the game, if you go after a tank, support or even dps like Iron Fist, Thor will win almost every fight. If you're up against a bunch of enemies, do not use your F since you won't be able to generate a bunch of bonus health in that state. Only use F when you're cleaning up the battlefield or taking on smaller groups of squishies. Also, don't just spam your shift in a fight, your mjolnir throw ability actually ignores the animation of your basic attack, doesn't even animation cancel, actually just does it at the same time so you can dish out the most amount of damage that way while generating bonus health.

[@tonyluong6732]

nah, play him how you want, i solo tank as thor but it's cause we have a pressure heavy team.

[@twogunscorker8494]

I never started playing Thor wrong

[@robertwenrenyeh]

From my time playing Thor, I have found the follow that might help others: 0.) If you use a Thor Force skill, within a small time, an auto attack hit can immediately restore it. 1.) When you engage make sure you engage. Or don’t get in at all, just hammer throw harass to build up Thor force armor. 2.) When you do engage combo between auto attack and the two Thor force skills. eg. charged Hammer Fly in, auto attack, throw hammer immediately, auto attack, hammer fly target, auto attack…then repeated. 3.) No need to use the Thor Force generation lightning dome unless you have less than 1/2 a Thor force charging and at least two opponents in range. 4.) know that when you use Awakening Rune, it eats up three Thor Force Hammers, and you lose access to all you other skills like Hammer Fly, thus removing a escape options. 5.) Observe the enemy healers and determine whether they care for each other or not. 5a.) Some healers are buddy buddies with each other and would let their tanks die and care for each other instead. In those cases charge in and harass them with Awakening Rune. 5b.) If the Healers are flimsy and like to run the first sigh of trouble, don’t use Awakening Rune and just chase them with auto attack combo with the two Thor force skills. 6.) You suck against CC, remember that. Save rune Awakening after CC is over to remind the CC player, how you made the god of thunder mad. 7.) Thor ultimate from my experience does the most scare and damage from the AOE lightning zaps during the charge. So Hammer Fly high over the enemy from an angle or ledge, use the super and hold the levitate up while looking down. Even if they hide in cave or jump into a window, as long as the circle touches them, they still get hurt. Just make sure when the ultimate drops, it drops onto ground level and not a support beam or ledge that isn’t collapsible. 8.) Final tip, Thor isn’t the best Main tank. He is more of a heavily armored high hp bruiser with high kill potential. You can’t shield anyone but yourself. So if you are the only tank, take it easy and move with team. If you engage, remember to Hammer Fly back to your team if the first three seconds isn’t going well, try again next time. Extra hint.) Hide behind the escort vehicles, they heal you a bit over time, and it blocks bullets. Wait for a good angle of attack to become available then have fun engaging and disengaging.

5:45 the only time the game tells you this ability slows is when Thor yells "slow down" when you cast it. I was so confused the first time i heard that and pressed F1 and saw nothing explaining that it slows.

[@badtiming2208]

Shift (Storm Surge) is for displacement, disruption, and generally confusing enemies because it could cause them to panic when trying to survive your dive. It can also be used to kidnap frontliners back into your team in the right situations (think charging it from high ground/round the corner, dropping behind their tank, and dragging him back to your team). It can also be used as short-range quick mobility for escaping (esp around corners so you can go back to your healers safely after too much diving) and of course as charged-up long-range mobility. Oh, and it works well with your E (Lightning Realm) since you can push enemies out of that bubble for a bit of extra damage and slow. Right-click (Hammer Throw) is good for a higher DPS combo (esp on easier-to-hit targets like a tank that can't easily get away like strange or magneto) that doesn't displace you or the enemy if you don't want/need that to happen. It's also good burst since you can animation-cancel into a swing for some juicy burst. It's also good for finishing off someone who's running away - decent distance and speed means you can get that DPS running to a health pack before they can get to it. Best part is it doesn't lock you out of your other abilities either F (Awakening Rune) is your hard-commit burst button. Because it uses 3 Thorforce and disables your other Thorforce abilities, you've disabled your mobility for at least 5s, more if you still need to regain the Thorforce to dash away after. It's the High Risk, High Reward part of his kit that can help burst someone down really fast. I wouldn't call any of their abilities a waste of Thorforce. They're more of a different tool for different situations. Do I use Shift way more than Right-click? Hell Yes, it's fun thinking about how panicked the enemy may be when I'm pushing them around. Do I not use Right-click at all? Nope, I like it when I wanna do more damage without hard-committing to a lack of mobility soon. When you dive into their backline and try to burst a healer down, sometimes that Right-click is exactly what you need to secure 1 kill and stay alive long enough to get out afterwards. It's all situational.

So I’ve found that using Hammer Throw is fantastic at close range because it deals more damage than the primary and you can immediately return to your primary because you don’t have to wait for the hammer to travel back. So it’s just bonus damage every 2 seconds.

HEY PLEASE READ If you pay close attention, after using Awakened Rune, your abilities come up for a brief moment as it ends, and THEN they go on cooldowns. If you time it, you can catch your dash BEFORE it goes on cooldown and ride the hammer out.

[@realdaggerman105]

You can combo hammer throw literally right after melee (like almost instantly) to animation cancel the melee but have it still come through. This deals 115 damage in the time most people expect to take between 45-85 damage (if you dashed right after melee). While not always better than spamming dash, it’s really useful for a sudden burst of single-target damage.

[@tonyluong6732]

​@@ferrarienzo319 i would just dash at that point, the disrupt them and you still get the 100

I have to disagree with you saying the right click isn’t viable, but I also don’t want people to know about my tech lol. But if you are fighting in close quarters and you animation cancel the hammer through you do an immediate 200 damage in like 1.5 seconds and you will get bonus Health faster and melt people. My tactic on engagement is hammer flight to push them out of position, lightning realm to trap, then left click left click and and then right click as soon as the second hit lands, I feel like a grizzly bear in there smh

I hit diamond playing only Thor, and I’m probably a gold player usually. This is an amazing guide. I have 1 disagreement, you should be engaging on the back line. If you want to know how, watch streamer TeamCaptain player Wolverine. You take odd angles and heights with the movement then engage past the tanks once they walk by. Also, while you are learning Thor, just never use his “super sayan” mode. It leave you so vulnerable.

shouldn't sleep on right click. in 1v1s or 1v2s where movement disruption is unnecessary you should absolutely be going for the higher damage right click option. its faster wakeup also means you're getting your extra bonus health a little bit sooner. you out-trade every other tank easier with right click spam over dash. plus that melee frame cancel with right click means you're doing 115 instantaneous burst damage which is a consistent finisher for most damaged non tanks as you can't out heal instant damage. all together i've even been able to consistently out trade awakened thors just by meleeing with right click on cooldown.

People love the F too much. Sure, it does a lot of damage, but it generates 200 Shielding while lasting 5 seconds and using all three Thor Force. Meanwhile, spamming Rclick off cd between Lclicks generates 100 shielding every 2 seconds. Its really a no brainer and should be obvious after a few matches on Thor, but even in Diamond I see people getting baited into spamming F
