Marvel Rivals Season 2.5 kicked off with the addition of a new hero and the new Arakko map. The Hellfire Gala: Arakko map is made for Convoy matches where the attacking side will have to carry the payload till the end of the map, and the defending side will have to stop them in their tracks.

This time around, the payload is Groot, who has become an avatar of Krakoa. He has arrived on Arakko to save his sister’s island. Today, we will look at the best team composition on Arakko for both attacking and defending sides.

Best Team Comp for Arakko in Marvel Rivals

Attacking Side

  • Vanguard: Magneto, Thor
  • Duelist: Iron Man
  • Strategist: Ultron, Cloak & Dagger, Luna Snow

Starting with the Vanguards, Magneto will do a great job of making space for his team. He has a large health pool and shields to protect his backline. Moreover, he can bubble up a teammate who is receiving the most damage and counter most of the divers. To assist him in the battle, we can bring Thor.

The God of Thunder is great at brawling and making space, but is also phenomenal at diving the enemy backline. His high damage output will help the team cope with the lack of Duelists in the team comp and distract the enemy team by not letting them focus on the flying heroes.

Iron Man will be the only Duelist in this team composition because the Arakko map is an enclosed region, filled with a lot of cover opportunities. Fliers like Iron Man can utilize these covers to peek the corners whenever the enemy is focusing on them and stay out of the enemy line of sight for the most part.

We will run a three-support meta composition. So, Ultron can be a part of this team comp. He will benefit from Iron Man’s presence on the team due to their team up “Stark Protocol” which allows him to heal better.

Moreover, he can keep himself and Iron Man healed in the sky for the most part. Both of them can switch between focusing on the enemy backline to peeling for their own healers when needed. Moreover, when the need arises, Dagger and Luna Snow can both heal the fliers pretty easily.

Defending Side

  • Vanguard: Groot, Peni Parker
  • Duelist: Hela, Storm
  • Strategist: Rocket Raccoon, Jeff the Land Shark

Vanguards like Groot and Peni Parker are great at controlling points. This is why having them in a team composition on Arakko in Marvel Rivals will be a useful decision. Peni Parker can lay down her nest in an area behind cover, and the enemy divers and flankers will have trouble getting to it without having to go through the entire team first.

Moreover, Groot can build his walls around the nest where he thinks the flankers can attack to give it increased protection. His walls are also overall more useful because of the high damage output and shielding from incoming projectiles. Peni can also make use of her new Team-up Ability with Rocket Raccoon and place down two bionic spider nests.

Storm can pick off enemy healers, tackle the divers, or keep pressure on the enemy frontline depending on the situation. She will also act as the Team-up anchor for the Jeff-nado combined Ultimate ability. Hela will have a similar role to Storm with a primary focus on flanking the enemy healers because of her high damage output.

Lastly, Rocket Raccoon is here for his robust healing and acting as the Team-Up anchor for Peni Parker’s second bionic nest. He can also put his BRB alone and get a different bionic nest on it. Jeff, after all the balance changes in Season 2.5, has become more of a backline healer. His main role here is to work with Storm to shut down the enemy healing ultimates.
