Best Strategist in Marvel Rivals

S Tier

Mantis excels at healing and buffing allies. Her orb-based abilities offer both healing and damage boosts, regenerating automatically over time. Headshot accuracy significantly enhances her effectiveness, but her straightforward gameplay makes her accessible to newcomers. Her fragility necessitates careful positioning.

Luna Snow, another S-tier pick, offers a blend of healing and damage. Her Ice Art ability amplifies both, and her Ultimate, Fate of Both Worlds, provides AoE healing or damage depending on target proximity. Her ease of use and focus on positioning make her ideal for beginners. However, her primary role remains support.

A Tier

Adam Warlock's standout ability is his multi-teammate revive. His Quantum Zone Ultimate brings back fallen allies with temporary invincibility, even allowing multiple revives of the same character. His Avatar Life Stream heals, and Soul Bond shares damage and provides a heal-over-time effect.

Cloak & Dagger offers a unique approach. Cloak's attacks heal allies or damage enemies, with self-healing capabilities. Dagger focuses on damage and applying Vulnerability debuffs. Dark Teleportation boosts ally movement speed and provides invisibility.

B Tier

Jeff the Land Shark, while popular, lacks the robust healing of higher-tier characters, making him less effective in extended battles. His straightforward kit pales in comparison to Mantis and Warlock. He's a decent entry-level support option.

Loki's effectiveness hinges on player skill and strategy. He heals and summons decoys, but precise positioning is key. His Ultimate allows a 15-second shapeshift into any hero, utilizing their abilities.

Rocket Raccoon provides utility and damage rather than pure healing. His Respawn Machine revives allies, but his kit leans towards a hybrid DPS/support role. His performance depends heavily on player skill and his vulnerability requires constant movement.

Ultimately, character selection should prioritize enjoyment. This tier list serves as a guide, but your personal playstyle should dictate your choice.

Marvel Rivals is available on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
