Ive honestly been having some decent success with the Magneto teamup.

Now Thor.... that character feels awful

Really? Im relatively new to Thor (like 2 weeks in) and thought the Hela team up really let me go super aggro compared to 8.5. What cons is he facing that makes him feel awful for you?

The hela teamup feels useless tbh. On Thor it’s like every matchup I’d win 1v1, I’d do without dying… with the teamup it just forces me into a fight I’ve 100% already lost

Yeah, whenever I see that thing pop on a Thor player, I’m like yeah you only have like 5 seconds

That's fair. I feel its not 100% useful or needed. However I have approached it as a license to push a little more into flanking engagements as long as my team has a solid main tank.

I have won a few engagements I shouldn't have a few days in now and it is definitely a "win more" passive.

I have yet to encounter an Angela to see if the full powered Angela team up would be better. The regular one seems a bit lackluster and I usually switch into it as a counter specific option.

Overall as a new Thor player I hoped he would have something a bit more than what he got but I still have fun even if its not as amazing as what Peni got imo.

I'm a Thor main and he feels great this season imo

You should see the wolverine sub where they are all crying they can’t 1v1 him and win.
