Overall, though, Stormbreaker seems to have the edge over Mjolnir once again. Strong enough to open the Bifrost, reach Eternity, and manipulate storms the same way Mjolnir can, Stormbreaker's powers are greater than that of the mythical hammer.
Stormbreaker has the additional power to summon the Bifröst, allowing Thor to teleport anywhere in the Nine Realms. Screen Rant has identified Stormbreaker as the more powerful of the two, based on this ability, as well as it being a much larger and edged weapon.
The hammer Stormbreaker is very similar to Mjolnir, made of mystic Uru metal and is nearly indestructible. Worthiness: Just like the original Mjolnir, no one can lift Stormbreaker who is not worthy.
Avengers: Infinity War directors Joe and Anthony Russo explained that the reason Stormbreaker was able to take the brunt of six Infinity Stones was because it was the greatest weapon ever made and Thanos was caught off-guard, having only realized what that weapon was after he was struck by it.
Can anyone lift Stormbreaker? Yes - but it's meant to be the strongest Asgardian weapon, and not just anyone can fully utilize its abilities.
The Asgardian Son of Odin was extremely close to ending Thanos at the end of Avengers: Infinity War. After gaining the powerful weapon Stormbreaker, Thor becomes the wielder of the most powerful weapon in the universe. Stormbreaker is capable of killing Thanos outright, and only Thor is currently worthy of wielding it.
Thor, being the god of thunder and tragedies, just could not love his new weapon, Stormbreaker as he used to love his old hammer, Mjolnir. Hence, the reason why Stormbreaker went to Captain America in Avengers: End Game.
And Mathaudhu can cite documentary sources to back him up. For example, Marvel – which publishes the Thor comics – issued a “Thor's Hammer” trading card in 1991 that states Mjolnir is made of Uru and weighs precisely 42.3 pounds. That's lighter than a herd of 300 billion mice, much less a herd of 300 billion elephants.
Valkyrie gets run through with the Necrosword, resulting in her losing a kidney, Thor loses Stormbreaker which will allow Gorr to reach Eternity, Jane learns that she will die if she uses Mjölnir again, and they are unable to rescue the children from Gorr.
Originally Answered: Why wasn't Thanos able to stop Stormbreaker, even with infinity gauntlet? Simple answer: Stormbreaker absorbed all the energy Thanos directed to it!
Mjolnir was forged for Thor Odinson's grandfather by the dwarves, who used the core of a star and Uru metal to form the iconic hammer and imbue it with its immense strength and magic. It is nearly invulnerable and is capable of great destruction.
Many viewers have pointed out that Thanos was able to lift Stormbreaker without a problem, but this is because the ax isn't enchanted as Mjolnir is. Others believe Thanos lifted Mjolnir (although briefly) and have even argued that he would be worthy of doing so.
Thor's Stormbreaker
He gave him a good fight which showed us why he is called a God. He can fight Hulk with bare hands, and we have seen him do the same in Thor: Ragnarok as well.
Mjolnir is a connection to Thor as he is pre-Infinity War, still finding his footing as a hero and learning how to find power within his relationships instead of within his physical ability. In this sense, Mjolnir is almost like a best friend to Thor.
Absolutely yes. In fact, there are quite a few misconceptions about Thor's abilities. Even Thor himself was unaware in Marvel's Thor: Ragnarok film.
The Leviathan is a two-handed war axe that is Kratos' main offensive weapon in God of War.
Thor's hammer Mjolnir was defined by the fact that only the 'worthy' could lift it – so basically no-one except the god of thunder (and Vision, for some reason). But when it comes to the weapon's replacement, Stormbreaker – which Thor forges in Avengers: Infinity War – Groot is able to lift it too.
Another plus in the Thor column is Stormbreaker. It is a mighty weapon with no equal, that can be used to defeat even the most powerful of villains, including the Scarlet Witch. In Infinity War, Stormbreaker fully pierces through the power of six infinity stones (something that Wanda struggled to do herself).
Due to both the nature of the weapon and Thor's attack on Thanos, Stormbreaker successfully powered through an energy blast from all six stones and dealt a near-lethal blow to Thanos.
Another version appears in the seventh episode, which Thor uses to fight against Captain Marvel. For unexplained reasons, Thor remains the only one able to lift the hammer in this universe despite Odin never shown enchanting it with the "worthy" spell.
Vibranium is better for defense such as armor or sheilds because it's not heavy like Adamantium or Uru and has relative Durability. Adamantium is much better for weapons due to having the ability to cut or peirce through anything once sharpened. I believe Uru can work the same way for both but it'll heavy.
In the stories (and the Marvel movies), we see the god throwing the short-handled hammer at his enemies. The top of the Mjölnir often (but not always) comes to a slight point, giving the overall object a somewhat diamond shaped appearance. This shape is similar to an inverted Tyr rune.
It is safe to say that Stormbreaker cannot be destroyed by anything audiences have seen in the MCU so far. A power that Stormbreaker lacks is the "worthiness" enchantment of Odin. Anyone physically strong enough to lift and use Stormbreaker can use it.
Thor Odinson initially suspects Jane might be this new hero. But he eliminates her from his list of suspects because she is going through chemotherapy for breast cancer, which, he reasons, would make her too weak to fight.
How Can Captain America Lift Thor's Hammer? Simple: Steve Rogers is worthy. The inscription on Mjolnir reads “Whosoever holds this hammer, if they be worthy, shall possess the power of Thor.” It doesn't matter how strong you are, if you aren't worthy, you can't lift Thor's hammer, no matter how hard you try.
