How to play Spider-Man in Marvel Rivals

Playing as Spider-Man revolves around stealthy flanking, close-quarters engagement, and swift escapes.

With his exceptional mobility, Spider-Man can traverse the map with ease, making it simple to sneak behind enemy lines. His Spider-Sense provides a significant advantage, instantly alerting you to nearby opponents, even if they’re hiding.

When engaging, an effective strategy is to use Get Over Here to either pull yourself toward an enemy or drag them closer if they’ve been tagged with a Spider-Tracer. Follow up with Amazing Combo and a flurry of punches, then use Web-Swing to make a quick getaway.

However, it’s important to remember that Spider-Man is a high-risk, high-reward character. He can be easily countered by enemies sticking together and marking him as a target. That said, in the right circumstances and against the right team, he has the potential to deal significant damage.
