Easily
Exhibit A
Thor charges Mjolnir with lightning before shooting it, multiple times.
Exhibit B
Thor's blasts (from his hammer) was shown to run out of juice, multiple times.
Exhibit C
Thor charged himself at the end of Ragnarok when he struck Hela with a bolt.
He used that charge to defeat the fodder and destroy some of Hela's weapons. Then the charge was completely gone.
Exhibit D
Thor charges the hammers in Endgame (before shooting at IM).
This is strong evidence showing that Thor and his hammers are able to hold a charge as well as that charge bring finite (not infinite).

I don't know why some of you are going on about being right and winning. Rob and Impediment were in on this gag because I PMed them. Silent and Rao PMed me and figured I changed the post. I highly doubt anybody thought Quan made the post, but simply played along just for the lulz.
I am going to say you need proof of a tactic to claim it. I might as well argue Thanos throws the sword at his nutsack. The biggest lightning blast did not even harm Hela. It is not impressive. Thanos withstood SW who has the power to destroy the mind one.
He took them fine. We see him take one from Thor at the end of IW. He pops up immediately. They do not faze him.
His sword can deflect energy. We see him do so in the film. You need to prove your claims Thor can defeat anyone impressive with lightning spam.
Dude, a SINGLE lightning blast from Thor floored Thanos. So did the one from Cap. If a fighter gets completely knocked down by a single punch from another fighter, that means that fighter cannot withstand multiple punches of the same caliber.
If the lightning blast was ineffective against Thanos then it should never have knocked him down.
As for proof of tactic: watch the bridge fight in Ragnarok. Thor was spamming lightning blasts left and right.
So basically: I have proof that Thor can spam multiple lightning blasts and that a single blast can floor Thanos. You have no proof that Thanos can withstand multiple lightning blasts.
So what? Thanos was relatively unharmed. Thor sent Hela back with the shot but he said it did nothing. It knocks you back but does not do real damage. Thanos was fine. Hela was fine.
If I push a man down but he gets up unfazed it did no significant damage.
Yes, and it did next to nothing to anyone impressive such as Hela.
You have proof he can use it no proof it can even critically injure Thanos let alone beat him. Thanos beat two guys with lightning powers into the dirt.
Lol, no. If you push a man who's actively resisting you and you push him hard enough to slam him on the ground, that's gonna hurt him. Unless you think football players who get tackled can easily take them without harm even without armor?
Hela has a healing factor and can take a spear thrust to the chest without pain. Are you saying Thanos is the same?
In any case, Thanos wasn't injured by the single lightning blast but he was definitely hurt. You don't get slammed on the ground and writhe like that if it doesn't hurt. So I'm still waiting for you to provide proof that he can tank multiple lightning blasts without issues.
Well I'm glad you know what proof is. So where is your evidence that Thor gets drained? When has he ever tried to make lightning and it failed him because he was drained?
Thanos resisted power that destroyed an infinity stone. Hela fought on Asgard where her power greater. You need to prove your claim. You just keep repeating yourself with no evidence or examples.
Thanos was fine. Just as Hela was fine. She was thrown a far greater distance. Thanos beat two guys who wielded lightning rather easily.
1. Thanos was unable to counter or block any lightning attacks from Thor or Cap.
2. Thanos was unable to get out from the lightning attack until Thor or Cap let up.
3. A single lightning strike slammed Thanos on the ground. This happened every single time he got hit by lightning blasts.
4. Any hit that's strong enough to slam someone to the ground is always strong enough to hurt them. Fact.
5. Thanos was writhing in pain when Cap hit him with lightning while he was already on the ground.
6. The lightning strikes that Thor and Cap hit Thanos with is nowhere near as big as the most powerful lightning blasts we've seen from Thor.
7. Thor is capable of spamming lightning from a distance, even while flying, and has already had multiple feats of doing so.
8. Thanos does not have Hela's healing factor. Therefore Hela's durability feats are not transferable to Thanos. Only an idiot would try to use such a tactic.
Now, where is your proof that Thanos can tank multiple lightning blasts from Thor?
1. We see him deferent energy with his sword. All characters knew the gravity of the situationso it is not reasonable to assume a pretty easy to perform tactic could defeat someone of Thanos skill. Thanos can attack, use his sword, and evade.
2. So you believe the intention of the scene portrayed this could have defeated Thanos had they not let up?
3. Ok and? If a jab hits a boxer more often than not but does not significantly damage or won do we assume only jabs win the boxing match? Do we completely set aside the skill and actions of the other fighter and ignore all reasonable inferences and assumptions assessing the totality of the scene.
If someone pinches my arms that hurts but that dies not warrant beating me in a fight. It did not hurt him in any meaningful way and he withstood far more punishment on top of the lightning blasts and he still was not defeated or critically injured despite multiple heroes attacking him.
Use a little common sense.
Who won the fight? Did it end with Thanos standing up and cap on his ass after he had two other heroes helping? Thanos broke his shield up and showed he was much more than Cap could handle despite a hammer, a shield, his skill, and lightning powers.
Quit focusing on a jab connecting when Thanos later uppercutted and had him at his mercy. Thanos let up. Cap never did.
6. We saw the biggest one which left him wide open to being attacked while taking moments to summon did not even harm Hela. Far less pierced her skin in the film too by weaker characters.
7. Who has he defeated while doing so? If you cannot give examples if him doing so then it is you just dismissing the character to reach a biased conclusion that fits your bias.
Thor wanted to kill Thanos. Was he able to do so at the end of endgame? Only an idiot would claim he wins easily whilevthe facts show us with help he loses badly.
8. Thanos has greater feats of durability. Soldier asgardians were able to pierce her armor.
The entire endgame sequence where he tanked hammer shots, shield tosses, Cap marvel attacks, Wanda infinity stone destroying power, and lightning to boot without being close to being physically beaten. Only an idiot would claim fodder lightning has a chance. Thor lost to Thanos. Multiple times in this film and in the previous one. Two weapons did not need help him. Thanos got in Thors head for 5 years and he still was not man enough to beat Thanos.
Not all energy is the same. You honestly think it's a good idea to block a lightning strike with a metal weapon? lol.
In any case, Thanos got shot by lightning 3 times and in none of those times was he able to block it. So if you want to claim he can do so, please provide some feats.
Possibly. At the very least, a prolonged lightning blast or repeated blasts should severely hurt and weaken Thanos considering even a single hit already had him squirming on the ground.
A jab doesn't usually knock an opponent off his feet. A better comparison would be a right cross, and a right cross powerful enough to knock you down with a single hit is not something you can take repeated hits from. Especially not when you have no feats of being able to block it.
A pinch doesn't knock you off your feet. Please use a bit of common sense. Name me one type of hit that can knock you down with a single hit yet won't hurt you and that you can take repeated hits from.
Cap isn't Thor. Cap is a complete newb with his lightning powers and doesn't have a 10th of the lightning feats that Thor has.
Again, Thanos is not Hela. Hela has an insane healing factor. You can't transfer feats between different characters that have very little in common.
And Thor almost killed Thanos in IW. If Thanos hadn't tucked tail and ran Thor would have killed him. This is IW Thor we're talking about, not Endgame Thor.
Hela wore no armor. But she also has a healing factor that Thanos doesn't have. Thor had no issue piercing Thanos with Stormbreaker.
Prove it is an earthly metal weapon. His lightning even powers up Iron mans suit. If you are going to make a claim please prove it. You just continue the baseless claims.
And yet none of those were instances of him brunt even critically injured. Your claim this defeats him is absurd since he went on to impose his will in all instances.
I am not arguing he is untouchable I am arguing if he does get hit which he has by the lightning it will not be enough to defeat him. This is factually correct your case is based on your own baseless stance being accepted while ignoring the result of their fights on screen.
Provide examples of Thor using lightning to defeat someone impressive. If you cannot cite any examples then you are about as effective as joshs hilarious and dubious headcanon stances.
So his actions after said blasts do not lead you to believe he was fine? Did you see what he did to Cap after? Why do you ignore the end result in favor of your desperate headcanon. Thanos countered. He was not damaged in the slightest evident by his prolonged fight afterwards while incurring a lot more damage than fodder lightning.
it is not a literal comparison but it fits your criteria. Thors lightning is not as powerful as his weapons. We see Thor and hulk knock each other at great distances in their fight in Ragnarok but at that point neither guy was able to hurt them significantly. Thanos beat the hulk soundly but just because the director did not choose to have him fly back 30 feet we do not ignore what causes actual significant damage. Thanos soundly defeated the hulk Thor did not.
We do not ignore the clear intention of Thor and cap trying as hard as they can to defeat Thanos and that both were unable to do so. They gas skill, weapons, and lightning yet both lost.
I did not say it does. A push could. I could keep getting up. You are trying to compare humans to characters who can resist stars, lol. The lightning never did any significant damage to Thanos. Thanos beat them both.
Cap used the hammer and shield like a pro. Yo act as if he was getting used to his powers while seeing him wield them is akin to trolling.
Cap used the shield and hammer in tandem and showed he was a fierce and a competent wielder of his powers. Cap is combat ready. Thor has more feats because he held the hammer longer but Cap was competent and quite impressive wielding the hammer. If he did not know what he was doing how could he just summon lightning?
So what? She cannot get up so based off your theory she can never resume her footing and her healing factor clearly has limits even on Asgard. Surtur.
Thanos won. He could have killed him with the snap. He was not there to kill Thor. His goal was killing half the universe. Thors goal was to stop and kill him. He failed on both accounts. He admitted in the film.
Your josh like delusions are about as compelling as your imagination arguments. Not based off facts or reason no one takes your fanboyism seriously.
She was not naked. That is clearly protective covering or armor of some kind. Surtur has no issue killing her with one stab. Hela did not resist stormbreaker which is greater than mjolnir so who cares?
Hela went toe to toe with Thor and he survived just fine. Thanos was about to impale him with his own weapon. Thanos is just too skilled for Thor or Hela. Stronger, more durable, and greater experience. You can ignore the filmmakers opinions, the fights, the evidence but you just come off as another josh. Who I like more I will argue for.
Point is Thor has the upper hand he did not win. Thanos beat the shit out of hulk in less time. The whole he flew back farther is not always indicative of greater internal damage.
He was using lightning and his skill. Not just lightning. He was always the more skilled fighter and connected. Hulk was still in the fight. Thanos took him out after overpowering him. Thanos is more skilled and stronger than both. They need a lot of help against Thanos. One on one they get destroyed.
No, he was not just using lightning he used skill, momentum, and his strength. You exaggerate lightning and ignore the other variables. Thor did not win despite his lightning.
