#3: Thor does have armor on his charged Mighty Strikes, and even the uncharged Mighty Strikes are highly invincible. Aerial Mighty Strike is Thor's primary weapon for opening the opponent up.
#3 Well what a lot of people who play slow characters need to understand that if your dealing with mashers you should have some bit of respect for them.
It's not the kind of respect that says they are a good player but that mashing in this game with some characters are easy, I take caution when playing characters like X-23 or Spiderman who can mash all day and build my offense around simply punishing their mindless attempt.
A good example is some of the air resets, if they mash to keep from getting grabbed just do a mighty tornado for free damage or something else. Wether they will condition themselves to stop mashing or not is up to them but it's not your fault they are acting stupid. Just gotta learn to adapt, even againts mashers.

The Mighty Strike only nullifies and beats projectiles, but it doesn't have Super Armor properties.

I completely agree with you, but still, i kind of wished that he had something like Hulk's standing H/Sentinel's standing M, or even She Hulk's Clothesline.
I love Thor (Even thought i currently dropped him for She-Hulk) it's just that sometimes it feels like there are not a lot of things that he can do against quick smashers**.

I think the reason why they did'nt give him armored normals or specials is because he is more flexable than Sent, She-Hulk and Hulk. Meaning he can do a lot more things than they can. He has a solid projectile which gives Sentinel problems, he has an 8 way dash and when used right can Tri-Dash mix up as dangerous as Magneto can. He has a Command Grab for ground and Air and can even combo after it with ease. Giving him armored normals might make him overpowered rather than balanced and evceryone and their mama would pick him.
I'd say give him more safer normals at least and he will be fine. minus Frame advantage on all ground normals hit or blocked is just dumb.

Yeah, i think can agree with too.
Thor's dash is deceivingly fast for a his type of character and he has a pretty good projectile attack(And the Mighty Strike is pretty damn good too), so having safer normals (Or at least quicker start up/recovery frames for some normals) would be a more balanced help as his normals frame data is kind of wacked out.
Good stuff.
Always looking into ways to improve my game with Thor. His normals being beaten out by everyone and not having any kind of super armor is what made me drop him from my team. Yet, I don't want to give up on him because I've always liked him as a character.
I approve.
