That still doesn't prove that Thor's lightning is short-ranged. There's also the fact that Wanda has trouble shielding herself while using her TK to attack, as was already proven when she was trying to crush Thanos.
So if your theory is she can use the same attack on Thor, then she's open to getting zapped by lightning.
I think TheVault was referring to the lightning coming off his body.

I already said he wins via lightning spam. I'm only saying Wanda's tk is strong enough to break Mjolnir.
Cool
But I also added the SB throw

Yes, that lightning seemed to reach out and strike undead Asgardians who were nowhere in range to hit Thor... and some of them were carrying spears. I'm not saying he can generate that lightning and hit a target a mile away but I think we're being a bit loose with the definition of "close range" here.

Thanos hits Cap's shield 4 different times before the shield breaks. Now I agree some of them were glancing hits, but one of them hit somewhere near the middle of Cap's shield strong enough to send Cap flying back. And guess what? No dent on the shield. Not even a scratch.
Also, if you don't think it's easier for a hammer to dent the edge of a shield than it is to dents its center then you really need to get a hold of a shield at some point and check it out. The edges of a shield are normally the first parts to get damaged.
There's also the fact that Thor wields Mjolnir one-handed whereas the strikes that Thanos used to break the shield were delivered two handed.
No, he hit him twice before. The first time at the start of the battle when all 4 are brawling and once again before he punches Mjolnir out his hand. Then his next hit slices into the shield.
It's easier to dent the edge, but a sword can't slice the edge at all. That's my point.
The grip of Thanos' sword is so small it's impossbile to actually two-hand it. At best he can hold the hand that's holding the hilt, which is something Thor can do. And again, Thor's hammer is magical. He struck the shield with both lightning and physical force.

I don't really see Thor going for that right off the bat with Wanda. But theoretically, yeah, it should do the job.

By close range I mean no further than a couple of meters; that's at least how it was portrayed in Ragnarok.
