Psylocke’s Mobility

Psylocke has a good base mobility. Moreover, it can be further boosted with some of her abilities. Her Psi-Blade Dash ability allows her to perform a dash and quickly close the gaps. This ability also assists her in escaping danger-prone areas. Additionally, she gets a movement boost with her Psychic Stealth ability, which also makes her invisible.

Psylocke’s Survivability

Although she has a low health pool (250), Psylocke is well equipped to survive even in the toughest of battles, as all her abilities increase the chances of her survival. As mentioned above Psi-Blade Dash allows her to quickly get out of a place by dashing twice.

Psychic Stealth plays a key role in her survivability, as she can completely become invisible when activated, allowing her to get anywhere without being noticed. Additionally, the Wing Shurikens ability grants her bonus health when her shurikens stick to enemies.

Psylocke Playstyle and Combos

Psylocke is one of the strongest close to mid-range duelists, as her attacks have a high damage output. She shines on the battleground with visually appealing attacks. Although she has a comparatively low number of abilities, they can be used in some cool combos.

Start with her Psychic Stealth to sneak up on enemies and get to an advantageous position. Then launch unexpected ambush attacks with Psionic Crossbow and Wing Shurikens, which will take out multiple enemies with low health pools. Finish off with Psi-Blade Dash to clear the area. If charged up, unleash Psylocke’s ultimate ‘Dance Of The Butterfly’ to deal devastating AoE damage with her psionic katana.

Best Team Composition With Psylocke in Marvel Rivals

Psylocke is capable of dealing devastating damage on her own. However, pairing her with the proper team elevates her presence in the field. Magik is the first and obvious choice for Psylocke, as they both share a Team-Up ability.

Psylocke’s team-up ability Psionic Disc allows her to tap into Limbo to get back to the previous position, which also grants her bonus health. Since Black Panther also benefits from Magik’s team-up, like Psylocke, adding the King of Wakanda to your team would be another great choice.

Psylocke Counters in Marvel Rivals

Psylocke is one of the deadly foes, and she needs to be taken down quickly ASAP before causing too much trouble. There are some heroes which counter the psychic ninja effectively.

Long-range hit-scan duelists like Hawkeye, Blackwidow, and Hela work effectively against Psylocke, as she can’t close the gaps quickly enough to eliminate them. Stun abilities such as Mantis’s Spore Slumber can give you an advantage against Psylocke.
