Welcome to Mojo Plays and today we're taking a look at the 10 best characters to play as
00:10
in Marvel Rivals.

00:26
Hawkeye
00:27
Admittedly, we haven't seen too many Hawkeye players on the servers, but for the few we
00:37
have come across, Hawkeye has established himself as a top tier character.
00:41
Not only does he have three different ranged attacks that let him dish out damage from
00:45
afar, he also comes with a passive ability that increases the amount of damage his shot
00:50
inflicts the longer he focuses his aim on an enemy.
00:54
On top of that, his ultimate ability lets him shoot a little more recklessly than you
00:58
can when in normal play.
01:00
Just those two powers alone can make Hawkeye an obnoxious foe.
01:07
Iron Fist
01:13
Whereas Hawkeye can be annoying in just how accurate and lethal he can be from afar, Iron
01:19
Fist is a different kind of annoying.
01:21
He's the kind that forces you to focus all of your attention on him as he gets up in
01:26
your business.
01:27
Dude is playing Street Fighter in a hero shooter, and it actually works in his favor.
01:32
Every one of Iron Fist's moves can inflict a ton of damage, and his Harmony recovery
01:37
allows him to heal a good amount of health in just a few short seconds.
01:41
Basically, if you let him out of your sight for too long, he can pop back up for further
01:45
irritation as if your previous fight with him never happened.
01:54
Cloak and Dagger
02:02
The strategists, you know, the healers of Marvel rivals, are surprisingly formidable
02:07
compared to most other shooters and their healers.
02:10
You'll see a few of them later on, but Cloak and Dagger are definitely shady characters
02:14
to watch out for.
02:15
While Dagger can shoot out projectiles that damage enemies and heal allies, Cloak can
02:19
drain foes with very little precision required on his part.
02:23
Dagger, though, is the character to prioritize in combat, as she has three different abilities
02:28
that can keep her team at full health.
02:30
So if you see her on the field, and she only has an ally or two near her, do your best
02:35
to take her out first.
02:40
Jeff the Shark
02:47
Jeff is another strategist character you should be aware of and target as soon as you see
02:51
him.
02:52
As adorable as he may seem, Jeff is one of the cheapest and slipperiest characters on
02:57
the roster.
02:58
His primary fire shoots out a beam of healing water, while his alternate fire launches explosive
03:03
bubbles that can damage enemies.
03:05
However, the healing aspect is where he is the strongest.
03:09
Between the beam of water and the healing bubbles he can throw out, Jeff grants a ton
03:13
of health just between these two methods, which can make it insanely hard to kill off
03:18
an enemy.
03:19
His ultimate, on the other hand, try not to get swallowed up by him.
03:23
If you do, you better pray there isn't a cliff or bottomless pit nearby.
03:33
Star-Lord
03:34
At first, Star-Lord looks like he may just be an average duelist with his basic pistols.
03:39
However, he has quickly established himself as one of the best characters of his class.
03:44
For starters, Star-Lord has a regular ability that allows him to quickly fire off a volley
03:48
of shots from several directions, which can potentially kill a few enemies at once.
03:54
But the most frustrating part about fighting him is his ultimate.
03:58
When Star-Lord triggers Galactic Legend, he suddenly gains auto-aim and can quickly pepper
04:03
targets with hitscan shots.
04:05
You'll be dead before you can even realize what's happening.
04:09
Squirrel Girl
04:16
Squirrel Girl might seem like the token oddball of the cast, but don't discount her.
04:20
She can be as lethal as the other duelists.
04:23
Though she can maximize damage with direct hits, Squirrel Girl can benefit from dealing
04:27
splash damage and force enemies to move to different positions.
04:31
She can even launch bigger, more lethal acorns and call upon squirrels to temporarily immobilize
04:36
a target.
04:37
And while her ultimate may not seem like much at first, it can be deadlier in various situations.
04:43
Squirrel Tsunami launches out a wave of squirrels that will bounce off of walls and deal severe
04:48
damage to anybody in its path.
04:50
Basically, you don't want to be caught alone with Squirrel Girl in tight areas.
05:01
Venom
05:10
Venom is the easiest character to use in Marvel Rivals, which may not be what you want to
05:14
hear when someone is describing a tank-class character.
05:18
As a Vanguard, Venom can act as a bullet sponge when he's got a good healer behind him.
05:23
However, what Venom truly excels in is not in melee combat or primary fire, but in being
05:29
a near-immortal powerhouse.
05:31
With the same web-swinging speed and wall-crawling as Spider-Man, Venom can quickly ambush foes
05:36
from above, inflict a ton of damage with his melee attacks, and heal himself instantly
05:41
mid-fight.
05:42
And that's all without mentioning his potential with AoE attacks, like his ultimate and team
05:47
up mechanic.
05:55
Scarlet Witch
06:02
Across the player base, Scarlet Witch has become the most feared character on the Marvel
06:06
Rivals roster.
06:07
The main reason for this has to do with her movement as Scarlet Witch can turn invisible
06:12
and fly above players.
06:14
This opens up the opportunity for her to flank opponents, or worse, unleash her ultimate.
06:19
If a team is oblivious for even half a second, Scarlet Witch can potentially wipe them all
06:24
out with a single use of her ultimate, if not half of the team.
06:28
Really, a smart Scarlet Witch player can quickly put a whole team of six in a very compromising
06:33
position with just a single move.
06:36
As for her other abilities, she may not be the best choice to have a one-on-one fight
06:41
with.
06:50
Adam Warlock
06:52
Of all the strategists, Adam Warlock is the top of the class.
06:56
He isn't like Jeff or Dagger, characters that can sort of add on to the damage output,
07:01
or have some escape plan if caught alone.
07:04
What makes Adam Warlock annoying is his healing factor.
07:08
He has two abilities that heal both his allies and himself with beams of energy.
07:14
Even his soulbound ability can negate powerful attacks by splitting the damage between him
07:19
and other allies.
07:21
Plus, the revive game is strong as he can resurrect at a spot near where he died, and
07:27
his ultimate can resurrect an entire team.
07:31
Moon Knight
07:37
At the time of launch, Moon Knight is absolutely the best character to play as in Marvel Rivals.
07:43
This isn't because he has a vast arsenal of gadgets or some of the funniest dialogue,
07:48
either.
07:49
It all stems from his main weapon, the Crescent Blades.
07:53
What makes these so unique is that when multiple enemies are near each other, the Crescent
07:57
Blades will bounce between them, inflicting a decent amount of damage until enemies separate
08:02
far enough from each other.
08:03
That's not even the worst of it though.
08:05
Moon Knight can also shoot out a mystical ankh into the environment, which he can then
08:10
throw his Crescent Blades at to ricochet and land shots on enemies without even needing
08:17
to look at them.
08:18
A solid setup can allow Moon Knight to rack up kills and assists without much effort,
08:23
and that alone is why The Moon continues to haunt players to this day.
08:35
