Marvel Rivals Season 2 takes place in Krakoa where Emma Frost hosts the Hellfire Gala. As a result, she is a playable character in the game now. Just like any character on the roster, she has her strengths and weaknesses. So, it’s important to find heroes who can duo along with her, whether on the frontline or backline.

Best Heroes That Complement Emma Frost in Marvel Rivals

One of the best parts about Marvel Rivals is the varied team compositions that players can come up with. So, the characters we are about to mention in the list below are best in our opinion but have not been officially prescribed to take up alongside Emma Frost.

You can continue experimenting with other characters and find more than one way of using the skill sets of each character to complement Emma’s playstyle. Following are the heroes that we think are the best picks when Emma Frost is on the team:

  • Magneto
  • Thor
  • Psylocke
  • Winter Soldier
  • Jeff the Land Shark

Those who wish to know the reason behind why these characters on the list can continue reading below.

1) Magneto

Magneto is one of the best pics to take with Emma Frost because their combined defenses will make the team impenetrable. Both of them can operate in sync and provide the team with a lot of shielding from ranged attacks. Moreover, her presence on the team will also activate their Team-up Ability, giving Mag additional firepower and shielding abilities.

2) Thor

Having Magneto on the team will not cut the enemy team if they also bring shielding characters like Doctor Strange, Magneto, and Emma Frost. This is because Frost can’t turn into her Diamond form to penetrate shields all the time because it has a significant cooldown time.

This is where Thor Odinson comes in. He can obliterate shielded enemies with Mjolnir and provide an opening for Emma when enemies let their guards down to deal with him instead. Additionally, she can use her Ultimate Ability to lure in enemies and let Thor use his Ultimate and potentially clear out the enemy team.

3) Psylocke

Psylocke is the second character to benefit from Emma Frost’s Team-up activation. New Team-ups have been introduced with the latest character and Psy has been removed from the Magik Team-up to get added to Frost’s.

Much like Magneto, Psylocke’s aggressive abilities will be increased with the mind projection Team-up to insta-kill many squishies. If she decides to play in her own mid or front line, Emma can also shield her from incoming damage.

4) Winter Soldier

Bucky is one of the most powerful characters on the roster. He can melt tanks, push them around, and eliminate squishy characters easily. However, it’s his Ultimate Ability that takes the spotlight any day.

In a perfect team composition, Winter Soldier would wait until Doctor Strange or Groot have used their Ultimate Abilities and trapped enemies, and then execute them using a final blow. He can use the same tactics as Emma Frost. She can use her Ultimate to lure enemies and he can use Kraken Impact on the helpless enemies to finish them off.

5) Jeff the Land Shar

There is no character on the roster who is as annoying and adorable as Jeff the Land Shark. If he is on your team, it’s all fun and games. However, he can be the worst character to have as an enemy. That’s what we are going to use in this team composition. Apart from healing his teammates in between, Jeffery can rage-bait enemies into chasing him or may seem like an easy target for divers.

This is where Emma Frost can use her diamond form to kill the players diving or chasing Jeff. He can swim away while Frost punishes divers and chasers using her choke and kick ability, eliminating them almost instantly. And most importantly, Emma Frost seems to love Jeff!
