Five best heroes you can duo with Thor in Marvel Rivals

1) The Punisher

One of the most straightforward duelists in the game, The Punisher goes well with most of the characters, including Thor. He excels at long-range damage, making him a solid partner for Thor's mobility-based attacks. With his Infinite Punishment Ultimate, he can melt enemies’ health, while Thor can move in with Storm Surge and Lightning Realm to finish them off.

The synergy is also heightened when The Punisher employs his Scourge Grenade to blind enemies, allowing Thor to close in without a care. Their complementary abilities allow them to dominate the battlefield together.


2) Captain America

Captain America’s versatility makes him one of the best heroes to duo with Thor. He can hold the front line, using his Leading Dash and Fearless Leap to engage enemies head-on, while Thor provides electric buffs to enhance Cap’s shield attacks. This synergy increases Captain America’s damage potential, especially when his shield is infused with lightning.

As a solid hero, Cap can soak damage while Thor in Marvel Rivals makes devastating strikes. This Voltaic Union team pair really shines well with its tanking and high-damage close combat capabilities, especially when combining electric abilities for maximum damage.


3) Storm

Storm is a perfect partner for Thor in Marvel Rivals, especially due to their shared Voltaic Union passive ability. While Thor rushes into battle with his Storm Surge to deal with enemies, she can attack from a distance, unleashing a Lightning Bolt to hit multiple targets at once, especially when enemies are grouped together.

The real power comes from the passive Thorforce ability, which allows Storm to use her lightning powers effectively, dishing out powerful AOE damage while Thor takes the heavy lifting. Combining Thor's durability and Storm's ranged attack abilities results in a potent offensive duo.

4) Hela

One-third of the Ragnarok Rebirth team, Hela is a perfect choice for pairing with Thor in Marvel Rivals. Her special ability to resurrect allies or boost their health can be a game-changer. Every time she kills an enemy, she can automatically resurrect Thor (or Loki) or give them a 100 health boost.

These abilities make Hela an incredible support character for Thor, as she can bring him back into the fight if he falls or ensure he stays in top form during long battles. Hela’s combination of offensive and support abilities strengthens the team’s sustainability and gives Thor a second chance when needed.


5) Loki

If you enjoy a more strategic approach, Loki and Thor in Marvel Rivals would make a pretty good pair. Loki can actually manipulate illusions to deceive their enemies. Since Thor does his work with aggressive play, there is no problem with Loki using his Deception ability to become invisible and setting up illusions that confuse and disorient opponents.

Loki's Regeneration Domain ability can also be a game-changer, as it heals allies when positioned near them. This Ragnarok Rebirth duo thrives on deception and misdirection, with Loki helping to set up perfect moments for Thor to strike.
