Marvel Rivals: Best Ultimate Combos

As a seasoned player of Marvel Rivals, I must say that the synergies between certain characters can truly elevate your gameplay experience. From the strategic pairings to the explosive combinations, these team-ups can make all the difference in a high-stakes battle.

In Marvel Rivals, some characters team up to form combinations that enhance their abilities and strengthen them in combat. Yet, there are powerful ultimate combos between heroes who don’t have team-up abilities. These combos can significantly impact the game outcome, with some being so potent that they could lead to a complete wipeout of an entire team.

With heroes like Doctor Strange and Groot who can pin down opponents, there’s immense opportunity for teamwork and utilizing Ultimates together to shift the course of a battle – or even an entire game. Here are some top Ultimate combinations you can try in Marvel Rivals.

Cloak & Dagger And Winter Soldier

The key to this combination is really Winter Soldier’s Ultimate, which does damage to enemies and marks them. This mark places a threshold on their health bar, and if their health ever crosses this threshold, they will die instantly. As he gets kills, Winter Soldier can use his Ultimate over again to mark even more enemies, possibly even wiping out the whole team.

The special ability of Cloak & Dagger not only restores health to allies, but also creates a harmful energy path that gradually harms enemies. Combining this with Winter Soldier’s special ability allows for swift elimination of targets. This duo works efficiently when time is running out and the aim is to regain control of a point, as most of the opposing team will be gathered together. Even if the damage isn’t inflicted, it’s probable that they’ll vacate the area, resulting in a round win.

Mantis And Magik

Magik’s Ultimate significantly boosts her power level, allowing her to inflict greater damage and eliminate vulnerable foes rapidly. However, the downside is that her sword movements become noticeably slower when activated, which temporarily makes her a more vulnerable target.

By combining her Ultimate with Mantis, she will essentially survive longer and be able to inflict damage much more swiftly. Mantis’ Ultimate gradually restores health over time, but it also grants movement speed and adds extra healing as bonus health to allies’ health bars. Thus, they can rapidly maneuver around a point, swiftly defeating enemies with minimal risk. This partnership allows Magik to maximize the effectiveness of her Ultimate while it is active.

Magneto And Groot

There are multiple challenges to consider when using Magneto’s Ultimate. Not only can too many people fire at you, causing the orb to burn out, but you have a very small area in which you need to try and throw it to get the kills and value you need from it to win a fight. This will mean that many players will try and combo it with Doctor Strange’s Ultimate to try and get just the right amount of momentum, but Groot is actually the better pick alongside Magneto.

Groot’s ultimate ability confines enemies within a compact area, yet they remain capable of shooting while trapped. This makes Magneto’s ability highly effective because enemy fire contributes to his ultimate charge. Combining these two abilities creates a powerful momentum and provides an ideal location for eliminating multiple adversaries simultaneously – making it an optimal combination indeed.

Doctor Strange And Moon Knight

Currently, a character that syncs quite well with Doctor Strange is Moon Knight. However, using Moon Knight’s Ultimate ability can be tricky as enemies often notice the circle indicating where it will strike, allowing them ample time to dodge – particularly for characters with high mobility.

As a film enthusiast who’s deeply into Marvel games, I must say that unleashing Doctor Strange’s Ultimate move is a guaranteed way to take down enemies. However, it’s important to note that this powerful spell doesn’t have an extensive reach, so you’ll need to get up close and personal with the adversaries to make it work. The trick here is to paralyze enough of them to maximize its potential, and if you execute it correctly, you can easily incapacitate 5 to 6 enemies at once!

Rocket Raccoon And Punisher

The unique duo of Rocket Raccoon and Punisher stands out, as their abilities complement each other exceptionally well. Notably, Rocket’s special skill grants Punisher an endless supply of ammunition and faster bullet speed. In essence, these two characters are a harmonious match in any team setup.

Regarding their special abilities, Rocket provides an increased damage output for his team, while Punisher transforms into a turret dishing out high damage autonomously. Employing them together allows Punisher to eliminate enemies faster, and at the same time, benefits the rest of the team from Rocket’s ability as well. This tactic works best when you are holding a defensive position or charging in with your entire squad for an attack.

Avoid using it when only the two of you are present, as there’s a chance it might lead to danger before you can reap the benefits of the combination.

Captain America And Iron Fist

Despite being a Vanguard, Captain America is usually found at the rear of your opponents more frequently than upfront, causing discomfort for their healers. Iron Fist shares a similar playstyle, making them an effective team when it comes to keeping the enemy’s backline and frontline separated efficiently.

In addition, when they synchronize their Ultimate abilities, this rule applies as well. Captain America’s Ultimate ability enhances his own health and mobility, but his teammates can take advantage of this by moving along the trail he creates during its activation. Consequently, if you trigger Iron Fist’s Ultimate – which already makes him tough to defeat – you’ll discover that you can eliminate enemies swiftly while boasting exceptional resilience.

Groot And Iron Man

A suitable companion for Groot in duels is Iron Man. Iron Man’s Ultimate has the capability to instantly eliminate enemies, but the game displays a large red warning before its trajectory to allow opponents time to escape. This means that if you accidentally fire it from a distance, they might be able to escape before the attack lands, resulting in missed kills and potentially losing the fight.

Instead, when you combine it with Groot’s Ult (a trap that confines enemies in a limited area), you have a great opportunity for a team wipe using Iron Man’s Ultimate. The key is to fire it promptly, ensuring it hits the trapped enemies, thus securing the kills.

Scarlet Witch And Doctor Strange

The trouble with using Scarlet Witch’s Ultimate is similar to Iron Man’s — the game gives enemy players a massive warning about where it’s coming from and where Scarlet Witch is, so they have time to get away from it. It’s one of the Ult’s you need to be very tactical with to get value out of, but if you play it right, it can be an absolute game winner. The other problem with it, too, is that Scarlet Witch is totally vulnerable while she is using it, so she can be killed before it has a chance to go off.

Introduce Doctor Strange into the situation, and voila! Both issues are swiftly resolved. Not only does this buy her time for safe charging with minimal risks, but it also leaves an array of adversaries frozen solid, making them easy targets for the immense destruction she unleashes.

He’s not the only good match for her; others like the Scarlet Witch and Jeff the Land Shark Ultimate combo also work well. Some Marvel Rivals players have recently been experimenting with this combination, even without a Doctor Strange on their team.
