But that's more knowledge/expertise in fields. If you want Thor outsmarting an opponent like the scan Celes posted from Simonson's run, a good example would be Simonson's run where he forces Loki to undo his magic but it's a bit more direct/forced.
Thor is very rarely sneaky besides the time he was young or mortal. One of the rare times was the Ragnarok arc. Not sure. Unfortunately Thor isn't very strategic although JMS'/Gillen's Thor came off as very wise/cautious. Then Fraction came along.

There was also a few classic Avenger where Thor was more good to the cause as Blake than as Thor. One IIRC where he, T'Challa and Pym saved the day with some medical research breakthrough

^^ This basically blows Thor intelligence rating of 2 out the door in hand books, Thor gains knowledge from his counter part Blake and Thor can understand scientific equations, how to work complex machinery, Marvel needs to revamp their power grid/ranking or don't do at all.
Basically Thor and Orion should be level 5 genius level intelligence, writers seems to hold it against that they are war gods, that my opinion.
