While being quite flexible, it is still crucial to choose the best heroes to pick with Magneto in Marvel Rivals. This Vanguard hero not only protects his allies with shields and barriers, but he can also amplify his damage output by doing so. His balanced defensive and offensive capabilities make him a good candidate for almost any team composition in the game.

However, there are preferable lineups for the master of magnetism. Usually, he works well with heroes who like to dive all the time in the front. He can also be an effective support against enemies that primarily rely on projectile-based damage.

5 Best Heroes To Pair With Magneto in Marvel Rivals

Here’s a list of heroes that pair well with Magneto in Marvel Rivals:

  • Scarlet Witch
  • Iron Fist
  • Venom
  • The Punisher
  • Magik

We’ll explain each hero and why they are good teammates for the master of magnetism below.

Scarlet Witch is one of the best heroes to pick with Magneto in Marvel Rivals due to the Metallic Chaos Team-Up ability. This allows the Master of Magnetism to amplify his damage output by summoning a magical greatsword. Try and land hits on the lower half of the enemy to maximize its range. 

2. Iron Fist

As a melee Duelist, Iron Fist can struggle against enemies who can easily widen the gap between him. This is why he is one of the heroes that you can pair with Magneto. With the shields and barriers provided by the master of Magnetism, Iron Fist can be more aggressive and take more calculated risks to take down enemies.

While the shield is active, any damage received by the shield will be converted to metal rings that Magneto can use to power up his Mag-Cannon.

3. Venom

You might have seen Venom popping up in a lot of team compositions lately. This is due to his high sustain as a Vanguard. Despite this, he still needs support from his allies to keep fighting for longer periods. This is where Magneto comes into play. He can provide shields to Venom so he can dive into the enemy and pull off his combo without worries. 

4. The Punisher

The Punisher is regarded as one of the strongest Duelists in the game due to his massive damage output and consistent damage. However, he does suffer from having little to no mobility, making him easy to pick off when casting his abilities.

This is why he is one of the best heroes to pick with Magneto. The master of magnetism can provide a shield and create space for him to unleash a barrage of bullets on enemies. Magneto can also cast a wide barrier to block projectiles, reducing the risk of getting taken down. However, it’s important to remember that melee heroes like Iron Fist can easily close the gap and pose a serious threat to the Punisher.

5. Magik

Magic is one of the Duelists that has its own defensive abilities. The damage she inflicts on enemies is converted to bonus health (blue HP bar). This makes him a bit tankier than most Duelists in the game.

She can stay longer in a fight when Magneto is with her. The shields can help her survive attacks while damaging enemies to stack up bonus health. However, she does suffer from having low mobility. She might still struggle against enemies who can move around fast or have an aerial advantage.
