Anyone else having a tough time getting real value out of Thor this season?
Thor has always been a “selfish” tank. We are all well-aware of his strengths and weaknesses, but it seems as if his weaknesses are showing a bit more this season than previous ones. Pumping out damage is not an issue and never really has been, but that is the main value that Thor provides at the moment. With the rise of Magneto/Thing and the addition of Hood, it feels as if I am limiting my team’s win potential this season by playing Thor.
This particularly showed once I hit Diamond. He simply explodes into poke if you aren’t extremely careful, and generally doesn’t provide any sort of defensive capabilities (aside from peel) for his team. Having this combined with a few support buffs feels like he has been left behind in the current state of the game.
There are times I feel as if I am playing perfect and still get outperformed by a Magneto or Hood. I will stay the course and continue to pick up The Hammer, but will still yearn for greener pastures for The God of Thunder in upcoming seasons.
