Team Building

A vital part of succeeding with Thor is knowing where to position him on your team. Thor is primarily a Point Character. This is due to many reasons, the primary one being that he gains more from having two strong supports behind him than the support that he offers. That said, Thor can also function on Second behind a handful of points. This is generally suboptimal, but thor's unique support takes the form of his TAC infinite, two alright assists, and an invulnerable crossover counter from Mighty Smash. This means that, overall, it is generally best to position Thor on point -- but he can still function off-point in a limited capacity.

Notable Supports

Doctor Doom

Doctor Doom is Thor's single best friend, and it's not particularly close. Doom's TACs and DHCs are both very strong and enable Thor to secure kills he might struggle with otherwise. But one underrated aspect of this pairing is the sheer ease Thor has at raw-tagging Doom. He can tag him after any grounded throw (even midscreen) or air magic sequence (corner only), leading to huge damage and meter gain. Thor uses all 3 of Doom's assists well: Plasma Beam is an incredibly strong horizontal coverage tool which he can chain together with Mighty Spark for huge damage, and Hidden Missiles enables incredibly damaging extensions that allow Thor to kill the entire cast and build oodles of meter (on normal bodies). Even rocks is useful for Thor, who can tridash in behind them, though he tends to prefer the other two.
