Vanguard

Bruiser

Thor functions as a bruiser Vanguard built around Thorforce cycling, close-range pressure, bonus health, and disruptive engages. His value comes from forcing messy brawls, grounding mobile targets, displacing enemies with Storm Surge, and stunning grouped teams with God of Thunder. He fits brawl and dive comps that want an aggressive off-tank.

Strengths

Strong close-range brawl pressure with frequent bonus-health cycling
Thorforce rewards active aggression and clean ability sequencing
Storm Surge gives engage, displacement, peel, and chase value
Lightning Realm restores Thorforce while slowing and grounding enemies who leave the field
Awakening Rune gives mid-range lightning pressure and area damage during commit windows
God of Thunder has strong initiation value with sustained damage, final burst, and a landing stun
Good anti-dive bodyguard when played near supports
Strong into teams that must fight inside short lanes or grouped objective space

Weaknesses

Not a true shield anchor and offers limited direct protection for teammates
Thorforce mismanagement leaves him much easier to punish
Short melee range makes him vulnerable to kiting and long sightlines
Awakening Rune locks out most other abilities while active
Storm Surge can overcommit him if supports are not ready
Struggles into snipers, fliers, traps, mines, turret setups, and disciplined poke
God of Thunder is reactable and can lose value if enemies spread or escape early
Can feed ultimate charge if he brawls without cooldown discipline
