Been using my champed Gladi Thor for a good week now. Lucky me he has been boosted as in PVP he has been a life saver on many occasions.
Been using 5/5/3. His yellow is good and drops some decent protect tiles but it usually gets matched within a couple of goes. This is fine if you have had time to get a couple of protect tiles down as this will turn them into equally meaty strike tiles (1,300 ish boosted )which in turn help out on his red power. However as I said , most of the time it will get destroyed or matched away pretty sharpish so I only really bother if I somehow acquire enough yellow. If you can get it off and then enough yellow again to fire it will hit for about 26k boosted at 5 covers.
Boosted and 5 in green thor is doing 27k aoe. And boosted with no strikes down 5 in red will do about the same for single target.
Boosted his health is 106k. I only have 13 covers so just champed. (450)
I have gone against any team really. Gambit and BB is annoying but if worth it I will do that too. Panthos teams were my usual team of choice to go for. I would typically work 2 of the opposition team down to 26k then hit his green aoe. Then fire his red for 26k and most of the time everybody would be dead dave. “ Peterson Isnt is he? “
I would say that he is fairly decent. Not Gambit, Not Thanos but definitely higher then middle tier. ( personal opinion ofc )
He really comes into his own when under 50%. In 5 green he will generate 5 ap in a mixture of green red or yellow. Every time this fires boosted he was doing 6k damage. This will obviously expedite his powers. Matches were very quick when he was below 50% health. Boosted this was 53k which isn’t too shabby.
Without the 50% he can be a bit slow, I was using him with Bruce Banner a lot of the time. If bruce Banner complimented him more then they would be a dangerous duo. His black creates attack tiles that boost thors red and he helps generate green too but hulk is a bit squishy aside from that, not sure what the fix would be for that. Ive not seen many hits since I have been using him but I would say I had more blue then red. A lot of the time it would be people wanting to try out against him which is understandable. If he could start on 50% health then he would be a nightmare but I don’t think he is too much of a deterrent on defence other then his large health boosted and match damage.
On Thors red you can have up to 10 attack tiles adding an extra 12 odd k to its total boosted. It was satisfying twonking thanos in the boat race for 40k a couple of times.
I am new to 5 star land but from my experience of gambit, dd, hulk and peter parker I would say thor is 2nd in that list. Ive not seen any other champed thors so I can’t compare with someone elses notes but that’s my 2 pence.

26k for aoe? wow. he hits really hard when boosted.
unboosted he should only be hitting 13k, which isn’t too bad but not game changing.
i thought his yellow is the interesting ability. once i cast it, it will continually churn out protect tiles. and for the enemy to stop it, he run the risk of changing all the protect tile into strike tiles. it’s a damn if you do, damn if you don’t for the enemy. i feel that if i am playing against thor, seeing yellow getting activated will be a nightmare scenario.0 -

1) It suffers from the same "syndrome" as Falcap: once you collect the 9 Yellow AP, you usually don't have that many Yellow tiles left for both the Repeater tile and the subsequent Protects, unless you get a Yellow-friendly board.
2) As always the case with friendly tiles, they tend to get matched away easily, whether by the suddenly smart AI, some dumb luck cascades, or a move you're forced into.
3) You'll almost never get the additional 12AP needed for Raging Fire's damage, unless you pair him with a Yellow generator like Kingpin, C&D, Sandman (shudder), or you stock up 21 Yellow.
4) There's this certain chap called Gambit running around with self-fuelling Ragin Cajun. Characters who benefit from facing enemy special tiles like Elektra and Medusa will also not bat an eyelid.
His Yellow is good for blunting match damage offense, especially in 5* land, and the conversion to Strike tiles is a good bonus. But all the other conditions prevent it from being a top-notch ability2 -

I'm excited to see how he plays out with DD with all the strike tile production and the double dipping.0

I fought an underlevelled Thor in pvp, and found that he’s great on defence.
i was denying green and red, and thor somehow managed to get 9 yellow. once he cast yellow, the protect tiles just cancelled out my match dmg. that keep him alive long enough to gather green and red to kill my team.
so while yellow should only be at 3, it is a very decent ability especially on defence.0 -
We need a half-heal health pack5

Now that i have a champ Thor, i found that i truly like him. All 3 skills are decent, but the really outstanding one is the 50% health passive. He deals dmg (3+k), collect ap, generate cascades at the start of every turn. The 3k dmg is significant; i use him and Strange to clear goon nodes very quickly.
He is a fun character to have. perfectly balanced and not OP (unlike gambit):1 -
Not sure if this was intended or not since its not in the description for his yellow but when the repeater is destroyed and there are weaker defense tiles out it will buff them to strike tiles in the strength that his repeater would have produced. Pretty awesome .3

Question for you guys. I just got my 13th cover for GladiaThor and was wondering if I should champ him. I've been leveling him slowly and have him at 330. He's my first fully covered 5* at 3/5/5 and I want to respec him to 5/5/3. I have 33 4* champed with multiple around level 200.
How badly would I be screwing my MMR if I champed him now?0 -

Generally speaking, one champion fivestar doesn't screw your MMR too badly, it's the second one that plants you firmly in fivestar MMR.So you need to make sure the first one is a good one, and I think Thor qualifies.

So I bit the bullet last week and champed Thor. He's my only 5* at the moment (though I'm also hoping to get JJ at 13 covers).
He's definitely a powerhouse. I use him for virtually every battle, both PVP and PVE. I did notice a bump up in my PVP matches, but nothing too oppressive. PVE on the other hand is a cakewalk.
I definitely don't regret it at all.1 -
Are the trap tiles that Doom creates supposed to count as friendly for Thor's Asgardian Tactics? I just tried it out in the latest PvE when Doom is required, and I don't believe that they counted.
Edit - Just confirmed, they do not count. With six trap tiles on the board, Asgardian Tactics did base damage. Is this supposed to be how it works? The description says "friendly special tiles" Are traps not counted as special tiles?0 -
