The colors they picked are actually from the Thor comic book series soooo.
Absolutely love the Heroes Reborn costume! And its great that they got rid of the black hair, that wasnt a good look
His alt he’s wearing in the Planet Eaters series (which new alt is that? #4?), the light-up bottons need to actually light up.
There just white buttons…but damn…that’d be so cool if they just had light coming from them. Not just painted white.
Looks like the Son of Odin is getting a new outfit in comics, I hope they add it to the game like Stark’s new bleeding edge armor. It looks good so far

Do you think Thor should get additional/needs additional moves? I was thinking if a new special he should have should be Mjolnir being tossed and returning? It would work as a different kind of projectile attack from mighty spark in that A/B/C would determine angle of attack{the angles would be the same as mighty strikes}. It should also be chargeable like Mighty Smash and Mighty Strike. On the way back, it will still hit the opponent, for less damage. AT first I was against a second kind of projectile attack, but since Zero has two different projectile attacks, then why not? Although would it make him too powerful if he did get such an attack? If getting that attack meant weakening his normals, then I’d rather he remain as he is without the new attack. However, if he can get the Mjolnir projectile attack and still keep the attributes of his other specials/normals, I think that be great. I don’t think it would make him overpowered and might actually give him a diagonal air attack option. Or instead make it a super. Then at least it won’t overlap so much with mighty spark in terms of projectile attacks or Mighty strike for attacking opponents below or diagonally.
So far, in Vanilla MvC3, I find Thor to be pretty good, just has some problems with characters that run around the place, but I guess a more invincible, safer Mighty Strike or a directional projectile attack would help.
I’d really like to see him get a lvl 3 godblast super, I’m actually really surprised this was left out of the game.
And maybe some form of hammer toss, as the only real time he does this is during mighty punish
Ive been begging for a Hammer Toss and God Blast since Day one… It is completely insane that thor cannot toss mjolnir.I swear if he can in ultimate I may just tear up. (It had better be projectile invincible)
Reminds me of this Thor game I played when I was a kid, where all you do is toss Mjolnir for the majority of the game.
So out of the new characters, who do you think Thor will mesh with the most? I’m thinkin’ Hawkeye, an’ Strange so far. Hopin’ he’ll work well with Nova.
Wow, I was just thinking how much I can’t wait to pair Thor with hawkeye.
I’m hoping that Ghost Rider and Thor will make a good pairing.
Yeah, those arrows will do wonders for Thor. Ghost Rider and Thor would be interesting. Pretty sure one of Blaze’s assists is an OTG, so that’ll provide some interesting combos. Might make for some cool DHC potential too.
Thor, Strange, Dorm (team mystical powers). Dorm as anchor is already great, and Thor is still gonna be my team leader. Hawk is assist for sure on my team (team 1 day 1). Strange might not mesh with this team though, despite the theme (Strange looks way advanced to simply be assist or anchor). I like ghost rider, but having thor and GR together is blah to me. A sluggish character like GR doesn’t appeal to me with thor.
Anywho, as I’m practically here and the Hawkeye thread 24/7 now, I just feel sooooooooo comfortable pairing those two togetherATM. But it could turn sour come release, I don’t know. I’m still gonna hit the lab and retry all the existing characters and new characters, and see who meshes well with Thor. He’s still gonna be my main for sure. So in other words: picture Thor behind a table with a clipboard, with the entire cast of UMvC3 reapplying for Thor’s 2 and 3 positions.
Yeah, Thor, clip board. I’m probably gonna be doin’ the same thing. I’m really hopin’ Nova makes a good anchor character and has a beam assist, because if he does, as much as I like Doom, I’m gonna feel obligated to drop him for my character loyalty purposes. Then again, knowing me, I’ll probably have two new Thor teams along with my main team now. So many options.
It took me a long time to realize that I need to have Thor in the 2nd spot and a fast character on point to balance him out. I plan on checking out the existing characters that I’ve used too but I’m thinking that GR’s zoning and OTG assists will work well with Thor.
Foreverzero, I run Thor, Tasky, Kl’rt atm and based on your idea of using hawkeye I can say that Taskmaster compliments Thor really well, especially at number two. I stand with ya as having Thor being the leader of the team. I’m not sure what to expect with the new possibilities, but I agree it needs to be someone quick. Skrull is my elite warrior at anchor so my only change would be to number two. Which by the way you should check out Skrull for 3, his tenderizer and stone smite assists work great for our heroine.
Does anyone else used :uf: dashes in the corner after MT? I’m able to get rests off of that since thor’s diagonal dashes go really far and aren’t too fast that I can catch them with a MH either or :h: (heavy is for huge characters though).
Which is better after a :l: might strike in the air, to dash :f: or :uf: in either the corner or midscreen, for a MH reset?
It’s also very weird, whenever I win with thor and land resets and etc. I wanna watch his movie again…
Hey that’s your team. Good for you. Me, I hate taskmaster. For me, he’s boring. He’s got everything, he doesn’t mesh well with me. And I’ll admit, I’m a low tier whore. Task is huh to. I like Skrull, and yes his assist are diverse…but I don’t have the patience for Skull shrugs. I’ve been using IM pretty constantly as of late as assist, and unibeam lockdown is wonderful. And yet, I can control him pretty well surprisingly. And Dorm has…well…considering Thor and IM, Dorm is needed as anchor for my team. I can pull out any team combo and they all help each other.
But to each his own. Like I said, I’ll retry EVERYONE in Ultimate. And we can’t be too focused on who’s gonna be great as assist or anchor yet, becuase the game isn’t out, so we can’t make those types of assumptions.
Anywho, drink up. Us Midgardians will have a better Thor this time around.
SIDENOTE: I know mashable hypers do way more damage than they orignally do in Vanilla…but does the mashable hyper do the SAME AMOUNT OF DAMAGE without mashing? Anyone?
Mashable hypers looks to do about 20-45% extra damage. I think it depends on the hyper, mighty tornado didn’t see to do THAT much extra damage, but proton cannon did quite a bit more compared to its nonmashed damage.
