Marvel Rivals Character Tier List: A Comprehensive Guide

With 33 playable characters in Marvel Rivals, choosing the right hero can be daunting. This tier list, compiled after 40 hours of gameplay, ranks each character based on their effectiveness in climbing the ranks. Remember, teamwork significantly impacts success, but some heroes inherently offer a greater advantage.

This tier list prioritizes ease of effectiveness and consistent performance. S-tier characters excel in most situations, while D-tier characters require significantly more skill and strategic team play to succeed.

S-Tier Characters:

• Hela: Unmatched long-range duelist dealing massive area-of-effect damage. Two headshots often secure eliminations.
• Psylocke: Highly effective stealth character. Her invulnerable ultimate delivers excellent area damage.
• Mantis & Luna Snow: Top-tier supports providing substantial healing and crowd control. Their ultimates offer exceptional protection.
• Dr. Strange: Powerful defender with a protective shield and portal-creating abilities, offering significant tactical advantages.

A-Tier Characters (Strong, but with caveats):

• Winter Soldier: Devastating area-of-effect ultimate, but vulnerable during its recharge.
• Hawkeye: Excellent ranged damage, but requires precision aiming and is vulnerable to melee characters.
• Cloak & Dagger: Unique duo excelling in both support and damage.
• Adam Warlock: Instant healing and resurrection abilities, but long cooldowns after team-wide healing.
• Magneto, Thor, The Punisher: Powerful characters heavily reliant on team coordination.
• Moon Knight: Strong bouncing damage, but vulnerable to disruption.
• Venom: Powerful melee tank, but straightforward gameplay.
• Spider-Man: High mobility, but fragile and requires skillful chasing.

(B, C, and D-tier descriptions follow a similar pattern to the above, with images included for each character.) Due to space constraints, these descriptions are omitted here but would follow the same format as the S and A-tier descriptions above, providing a brief overview of each character's strengths and weaknesses.

Remember, personal preference and team synergy play a crucial role. Experiment and find the characters you enjoy playing the most!
