5 Best Heroes To Counter Human Torch in Marvel Rivals
1. Hela

Hela remains a menace for most heroes in Marvel Rivals, including the Human Torch. She can easily escape Pyro Prison by using Astral Flock. Additionally, she has a wide variety of AoE attacks that can be hard to dodge, especially her Goddess of Death ability.
2. Invisible Woman

Her own sister can also be a hard counter when used correctly. Invisible Woman’s Psionic Vortex can pull enemies together, preventing them from escaping. Additionally, she can double-jump to quickly escape Pyro Prison.
3. Punisher

Punisher is one of the safest heroes to pick if you want to counter the Human Torch in Marvel Rivals. All you have to do is spam your arsenal of weapons at him. The tricky part is attacking from off-angles where the Human Torch won’t be able to hit you easily. Make sure you are not in a bad position when using Final Judgment to avoid wasting it.
4. Iron Fist

Iron Fist can perform multiple jumps, making him perfect for targeting flying enemies like the Human Torch. Additionally, this hero can easily eliminate anything within the range of his fists. Add Luna Snow as your duo for the team-up ability to slow enemies and prevent them from escaping your combo.
5. Hawkeye

A skilled Human Torch player can be agile in combat and difficult to target. This is where Hawkeye shines the brightest. This hero is designed to counter almost all flying units. One of the reasons he is effective against the Human Torch is his Hunter’s Sight ability. No matter how fast your target is, the afterimages will remain and can be attacked to take them down. You can also use Hypersonic Arrow to knock down the Human Torch, making him even more vulnerable.
