Thor's lightning =/= Storm's lightning or regular lightning though. I wasn't sure that to be explained.
Sure, some writers might treat it similar, but plenty of times it has been treated completely differently. Thor's lightning has had as much miscellaneous uses as Magneto entire power set. Everything from teleportation, to matter manipulation, to sealing a broken moon to affecting an out of phase Atum in the heart of Sun....
Saying he can manipulate and control lightning which translates to Thor's lightning's being not effective is dumb AF. Magneto vs. Zeus next? And yes, Zeus is the closest example I can think off with similar feats to Thor in the sheer power department of lightning.
Aside from the fact that Thor's lightning has some power showings which suggest he'd flat out kill Magneto, shield and all.

Calm your ****. This is Unworthy Thor. That means no Mjolnir (so there goes like 80% of his best feats). It's just Thor, his metal axe, his metal arm, and his lightening attacks against one of the best EM spectrum manipulating beings in comics. Good luck with that.

Magneto should be able to, quite easily, protect himself from Thor's attacks long enough to defeat him. Magneto doesn't even need to "slag" the arm nor the axe, just rip them off and maul Thor into submission with them.
I think Thor can win, I just see it as more likely Magneto does given Thor's limitations.
This new Thor doesn't seem as strong as his classic self physically, even after his confidence boosting Unworthy Thor series he still has fits of depression, like in Secret Empire.
Plus it'll just be a struggle the whole time as he fights Magneto for control.
If he goes high end, he can blow Magneto away though.
Now put this Thor in there:

And it'll be different, classic Thor was still a force of nature without Mjolnir.
Gender: Male Location: Planning to take over the WORLD!
a weakened mags has straight up handled ground zero nukes, and in the comic world nukes still carry some weight. if he just stood there and let thor rain lightning, thor could probably get through, but like i said, mags is an awesome pulti tasker. as he's shielding, he could rip apart thor's arm (not much if any enchantment on it, is there?) and if he could affect the hammer, he could def affect the axe which has far less enchantment. thor also has other metal on his costume that mags could take advantage of. i really see this as mags' to lose.
That's why Magneto needed Sugar Man's tech to restore his genetic code in Magneto Dark Seduction.
Well he was Depowered because of the genetic defects and had to use Fabian Cortez and Polaris to get back at full power and then repair his genetic code.
I'm not sure you're getting what I'm saying. Magneto was less than at full power after Xavier damaged his genetic code.
if his arm was enchanted somehow (still not sure if it is), maybe he couldn't rip it apart, but he'd still likely be able to have some level of control over it. if it's straight uru, i could easily see mags shredding it and even choking thor to death with it. /shrug
