I could see it go either way, though I'd say Thor wins after a good fight. Just a lot more options and ranged attacks. Plus, other than Superman, none of the other combatants Steppenwolf fought hit as hard as Thor. None of them also have the feats to indicate they're as good a fighter as Thor. And we know Steppenwolf can get cut and stabbed, so Thor really just needs to outfight him.

Neither has Thor. In fact his lightning charged punches in Ragnarok didn't do anything like that. In Avengers him trying to kill Cap and the amped Shockwave didn't do anything than clear fog and maybe down some trees.
In age of Ultron, his hammer strike was amped by vibranium core if you want to use Sokovia as a striking feat.
Now just to clarify, when I say Thor "hits", I'm not referring to just his physical punches. I'm including lightning and lightning charged attacks in there.
I know. He never did anything on level of Superman.

Nerfed Destroyer? That statement alone tells me you're entering this argument with a solid bias already formed. Nothing in the movie indicated that the Destroyer was nerfed.I can tell you that Thor easily defeated multitudes of Frost Giants and Undead Asgardians. Superman had such a hard time defeating a couple of his co-kryptonians.
Frost giants who were fodder and undead asgardians who were getting torn apart by machine gun fire, huh?
How can kryptoninans compare to that.
Thor defeated Surtur. He got the better of IM and Hulk in all their encounters. He took down multiple leviathans with a single hit. You know, the leviathans that were casually wrecking buildings by just brushing against them.
Thor defeated Surtur when he wasn't at full power. He was hilariously outgunned by a single dragon.
Superman doesn't need ABC comparisons with buildings. He can just casually carry them around as a joke.
Hulk got his better in Avengers. Thor looked good in Ragnarok but it wasn't like Hulk was totally beaten.
Who has Superman defeated on his own? Zod, that's who. He had help vs. Doomsday and Steppenwolf. Faora he only defeated because of her mask weakness and because she got hit by missiles. He trashed the JL who were all just trying to calm him down.
Yeah, try again if you think JL were holding back. He casually no sold Diana Arthur and Victor even trying to budge him and beat down Steppenwolf like a joke.
How did Thor fared against Ultron BTW?

Thor's lightning demolished the Frost Giant homeworld for acres of land. In the Sokovia explosion, the vibranium core collapsed the meteor but the shockwave that wracked the surface was purely Thor. There have already been countless debates about this and proof has been given countless times.
And again, he single shot multiple leviathans, each of whom were easily demolishing buildings by simply grazing them.
Just to be clear, I don't think Thor can beat Superman nor do I think he's stronger. But fair is fair, and Superman just doesn't have the same kind of destructive output feats that Thor has. Even the shockwaves that Thor and Malekith were making when they were trading blows were far greater than the shockwaves Superman and Zod were making when they were trading blows.

Ice. And it's not a striking feat.

Vibranium enhances the mjolnir strike. Even in the start a mjolnir strike topples a tank when Thor hits Cap's shield.
It's not even close to being his own striking power.

He Electrocuted them. It's not "striking power".

Eh, what? Thor's hammer strike shattered some glass. Superman and Zod literally leveled half a skyscraper.
I forgot how disengenous you can be while wanking Thor.

Thor, not much of a fight either. He beats his ass like he did Surtur but worse. He isn't facing a bunch of losers who can barely even hurt him like Aquaman. A single lightning blast from Zeus is what beat him during his first invasion....what was Thor the god of again?
Zeus >>>> Thor though.
