Am kinda surprised that this Loki went with the Destroyer Armor right off the bat. I would think he'd try to slowly study Thor first then decide on the best way to take him out, probably in a plan involving Amora.

He doesn't know that he's weak to women yet, but he does know that he likes to play hero and found someone(Winslow) that could be easily manipulated and likes destructive toys. He doesn't believe that this will kill Thor. He's mainly testing this brother of his that he's been living in the shadow of despite him originally believed to be dead. But if he does die to the Armor it's even better for him.
