Team up with Wolverine in Marvel Rivals! Find out which 5 heroes are the best picks to enhance your strategy
Wolverine is one of the most popular heroes in the entire Marvel Universe, and his popularity carries into Marvel Rivals as well. In the game, Wolverine is a melee duelist who can deal significant damage, especially when facing them one-on-one. He can also recover his health while going on the offensive, thanks to his Regenerative Healing Factor. However, how effective he is across the battlefield will depend greatly on the kind of support he gets from the rest of the team.
In this guide, we will share some of the heroes who perfectly complement Wolverine and his abilities, allowing you to maximize his damage output and sustain him longer.
Which Heroes To Pick with Wolverine in Marvel Rivals
The following are some of the heroes that you can choose when you have Wolverine in the team.
- Hulk
- Punisher
- Magneto
- Cloak & Dagger
- Luna Snow
Let’s take a detailed look at how these heroes can support Wolverine.
1. Hulk
Hulk is the only hero with whom Wolverine has a special team-up ability. When these two are in the same squad, Wolverine and Hulk can launch the Fastball Special. With this ability, Hulk can pick up Wolverine and throw him anywhere on the battlefield. So, it essentially allows Wolverine to infiltrate behind enemy lines and start his brutal melee attacks.
The Fastball Special also helps Wolverine to achieve the same effect as a Feral Leap, but without the 13-second cooldown involved in the latter.
2. Punisher
The Punisher is a long-range duelist who can provide effective support to Wolverine in Marvel Rivals. Firstly, the Punisher has a smoke grenade that can effectively hide the approaching Wolverine from an opponent’s eyes. It helps Wolverine to reach close range and unleash a flurry of devastating attacks. Beyond that, the Punisher can also use his long-range sniping skills to cover Wolverine as he goes in for his melee slashes and attacks.
3. Magneto
Another incredible support system for Wolverine in Marvel Rivals is Magneto. The hero has a Metal Bulwark ability that can offer protection to Wolverine, as the close-range duelist goes in for the attack. Any damage that Wolverine receives when this ability is active will be converted into rings for Magneto. The Metallic Curtain from Magneto also protects Wolverine and helps him to stay active on the battlefield for sustained periods.
4. Cloak & Dagger
This particular hero can support Wolverine in both its modes. As Cloak, you can use your Dark Cloak ability to send Wolverine unnoticed behind enemy lines. Once he reaches close to the enemy, Wolverine can devastate the opponent’s ranks. As Dagger, you can provide continuous healing to Wolverine as he faces the enemy in close quarters. Dagger Storm, Lightforce Dagger, and Eternal Bond are some of the Dagger abilities that are perfect for healing Wolverine in Marvel Rivals.
5. Luna Snow
Ice-based strategist Luna Snow can provide additional healing to Wolverine. Firstly, her primary fire heals allies while damaging enemies. But, her ultimate, Fate of Both Worlds, provides 250 health-per-second to her and any of her team members nearby. So, with this ability activated, Wolverine can take all the punishment and still stay standing..
Strategies for Playing Wolverine in Marvel Rivals
Now that you know about the best companions for Wolverine, you should also know exactly how to play the melee-attacking duelist. Here are some tips to improve your Wolverine’s effectiveness.
- Wolverine’s Healing Factor is not always active and kicks in once he is out of combat for a few seconds.
- Wolverine’s attacks do more damage to targets that have greater health. So, it is often wise to attack tanks with your Wolverine to deal considerable damage.
- Wolverine becomes practically unstoppable when his rage is at its maximum. At these times, he can take down even the most powerful heroes due to his sheer damage output.
- However, don’t let Wolverine be surrounded by too many enemies, which can prevent you from escaping the fight and triggering his Healing Factor.
