In Thor: Ragnorak, Odin states that Hela draws her power from Asgard, so does Thor (if I remember correctly).

On Earth her costume has multiple tears, signifying her weakened state (maybe it's result from million years imprisoned far away from Asgard). When she arrives on Asgard her outfit is now whole and takes on her traditional green color scheme, showing that she has regained her strength.

That's why unleashing Sultur was an option, so he would destroy Asgard, in order to weaken Hela, and therefore end her.

So, if Thor also draws power from Asgard, how is he still powerful and kicking bad guys in Infinity War after Asgard was completely destroyed?



Best Answer

Though, Thor draws his power from Asgard, but it was stated in the movie a couple of times that that Asgard's not a place, it's a people.

Thor: Without my hammer, I can't.

Odin: Are you Thor, the God of Hammers? That hammer was to help you control your power, to focus it. It was never your source of strength.

Thor: It's too late. She's already taken Asgard.

Odin: Asgard is not a place. Never was. This could be Asgard. Asgard is where our people stand. Even now, right now, those people need your help.

Later Thor says this to Loki.

Thor: Asgard's not a place, it's a people. Loki, this was never about stopping Ragnarok. This was about causing Ragnarok.

Since he saved his people (though half of them died in IW), he can still have his powers. However, this fact shouldn't be forgotten that Thor got his powers in heritage.

How does Thor still have powers after Asgard is destroyed?

As Odin says in the movies Asgard was never a place but its people. Thus Thor draws his strength from all Asgardians. When Thanos killed 50% of the Asgardians Thor lost roughly half his power. That's why he sought out Stormbreaker to augment his power.

What happens after Asgard is destroyed?

Asgard was destroyed in 2017 during Ragnar\xf6k, when Thor ordered Loki to unleash Surtur in order to kill Hela. The surviving Asgardians relocated to Earth, settling in T\xf8nsberg, Norway, reestablishing the town as New Asgard.

How does Thor have power?

Thor's greatest weapon, and closest ally, is Mjolnir, an enchanted hammer forged from Uru metal, which has power over storms and can generate energy blasts known as anti-force. Thor uses this hammer to summon rain, wind, lightning, and thunder, though he has also been known to produce lightning from his hands.

Does Thor have unlimited power?

With the many battles he's fought, including the ones alongside the Avengers, it's useful to have an ability that heals scorched limbs and broken bones. But sometimes it's not just about his body. Thor's powers are not unlimited and required time to be replenished.
