How Thor should create ranked value
Thor: Anchor space first, then spend cooldowns to start or stop a fight when your team can follow.
Editorial note: this section is Pocket Rivals advice for everyday ranked lobbies. Use the official source panel for canonical ability text, then use this ranked read to decide what to practice next.
First job
Pair with a second Vanguard or a durable Duelist who can hold space when you reset.
Practice next
- 1Use shield, mitigation, or control to claim space before chasing eliminations.
- 2Save one defensive cooldown for leaving the fight.
- 3Commit only after your damage players are looking at the same target.

Before committing, choose one corner to enter from and one corner to reset to if enemies kite backward.
Review basis
Based on Pocket Rivals counter notes that use Peni Parker setup, Mantis kiting tools, and Punisher sustained damage into Thor's direct brawl paths.

Prince of Asgard and God of Thunder, Thor Odinson is one of the bravest warriors the cosmos has ever known. With his enchanted hammer in hand, Thor summons the full fury of the storm to smite his foes... but only if he proves himself worthy of Mjolnir's might.
Alas, Thor has suffered greatly since the Timestream Entanglement. When the All-Father was forced to enter his regenerative Odinsleep, Thor and his brother Loki battled for the throne. Through deceit and trickery, Loki bested his brother, exiling Thor to a distant and dangerous timeline.
