As a Frost Giant raised as an Asgardian, he was a son of two realms, and could have brought those kingdoms together, ending centuries of war. He also knew what it was like to experience pain and loss. Many of his worst qualities were given to him by his father (and also the All-Father). If things had turned out just a little differently, he would have made a heck of a king. See all the reasons why below:
