How To Play Squirrel Girl in Marvel Rivals

As a seasoned gamer with over two decades under my belt, I’ve seen it all – from the rise and fall of arcade gaming to the emergence of online multiplayer. But nothing quite prepared me for the whimsical, yet strategically sound, character that is Squirrel Girl in Marvel Rivals.

Squirrel Girl is among the playable characters in Marvel Rivals who engage in duels. Similar to other Duelists, she has unique methods of movement that allow her to reach locations unattainable by other heroes. However, these traversal abilities are less extensive compared to those of characters like Iron Man and Storm, both of whom can fly.

Playing as Squirrel Girl in Marvel Rivals entails annoying opponents with powerful acorn bombs, which could appeal to players who are fans of the chaotic playstyle exhibited by Junkrat from Overwatch 2. Additionally, she has the ability to immobilize enemies, making them easy targets.

Squirrel Girl’s Abilities in Marvel Rivals

  • Squirrel Girl’s Health: 275 Health
  • Squirrel Girl’s Difficulty: 1 Star
  • Squirrel Girl’s Role: Duelist

Squirrel Girl’s gear is surprisingly straightforward, earning her a single star in terms of complexity. She’s an ideal choice for beginners in Marvel Rivals, as she’s both easy to grasp and swift to master. Her weapon’s splash damage makes her effective at attacking from afar, while Tail Bounce is crucial for securing favorable positions against opponents.

Ability Name Ability Type Description
Burst Acorn Primary Attack Armed with a Slingshot, Squirrel Girl can volley single shots of acorns that can bounce off of surfaces before detonating into splash damage.
Squirrel Blockade Activate Ability Squirrel Girl will hold up a giant acorn and take aim. She can then hurl it to immobilize the first enemy hit by it. This puts the enemy at the complete mercy of Squirrel Girl and her teammates.
Tail Bounce Active Ability Duelists need to have high mobility, and Tail Bounce gives Squirrel Girl that small edge in being able to reach higher grounds. Players should have a firm grasp of which parts of the map can be best used. As this will give them optimal bombardment tactics.
Mammal Bond Active Ability Players can reload once they run out of acorns, or they can use this ability to instantly reload their weapon and be able to use one of their other abilities for free. This means after using Mammal Bond, they could throw out 2 Squirrel Blockades, or they can use an ability that is currently on cooldown when they need it immediately.
Webbed Acorn Team-Up Ability Squirrel Girl gains an extra ability called Webbed Acorn if one of her teammates is playing Spider-Man. Using this ability will have Squirrel Girl spin a sling above her head. Followed by throwing a projectile that will explode to web up enemies caught in its blast radius. This will both deal damage and immobilize them to make it easier to pick them off.
Unbeatable Squirrel Tsunami Ultimate Ability When used, players will call forth an army of squirrels to sweep across the affected area. What makes things even better is that they will actually ricochet off walls, hitting enemies multiple times. This can be devastating for the enemy team when they are trying to hold down a point in their final moments.

When to Use Squirrel Girl’s Ultimate

As a gamer, I’ve found the most effective way to utilize this ability is when there’s an abundance of walls for my squirrel pals to bound off. This lets them go wild and repeatedly collide with opponents. It might take a few games to get the hang of timing her Ultimate just right, but compared to other characters, she’s relatively easier to grasp the nuances of.

Tips and Tricks for Playing Squirrel Girl in Marvel Rivals

An effective strategy for Squirrel Girl, once her ultimate ability is activated, involves utilizing her Mammal Bond to establish two consecutive Squirrel Barricades. Afterward, unleash your Ultimate, which immobilizes enemies during the Squirrel Storm. Simultaneously, you’ll find your slingshot reloaded, enabling more attacks. The simplicity and versatility of Squirrel Girl’s kit, allowing for synergy in any sequence, makes her one of the most dominating characters in Marvel Rivals.

Her slingshot enables her to target enemies hidden among others, taking out enemy tacticians who are trying to conceal themselves behind their comrades – and occasionally eliminating two with a single acorn shot. Maintaining a distance is advisable as Squirrel Girl primarily excels in ranged attacks, acting as a supportive force from the battle’s edge.
