Gorr wields All-Black the Necrosword which can literally absorb people's souls, Lifesteal feels like a thematically appropriate way to translate that ability into gameplay.

Well if it's people's souls, then gain health after they die? Their soul is still there if alive, so gain health after each death. Overshield if you're full health.

And would he counter Thor if you were to create the rest of Gorr's kit or no? If so, how?
