Cloak and Dagger are hybrid strategists in Marvel Rivals, uniquely capable of switching between healing and damage-dealing roles. Dagger specializes in healing and support, using her Light Daggers to sustain allies and her Veil of Lightforce to boost healing while shielding teammates. Cloak, on the other hand, focuses on disrupting enemies with abilities like Terror Cape, which blinds and makes foes vulnerable, and Dark Teleportation, which grants invisibility and movement speed boosts to nearby allies. Together, they excel at providing utility, controlling the battlefield, and turning the tide of fights.

Their ultimate ability, Eternal Bond, allows them to perform three rapid dashes that heal allies and damage enemies along its path, making it a powerful tool for both offense and defense. Cloak and Dagger thrive in team compositions that stay grouped up, where Dagger's area-of-effect healing can sustain multiple allies while Cloak disrupts opponents. They pair exceptionally well with vanguards like Hulk or Magneto, who can protect them while they heal or deal damage. However, their reliance on teamwork makes them less effective in disorganized teams or against highly mobile enemies who can avoid their abilities.

How to play Cloak & Dagger in Marvel Rivals

To play Cloak and Dagger effectively, you must master switching between their forms based on your team's needs. Start most fights as Dagger to heal your teammates with her Light Daggers and create a healing-over-time field using her Dagger Storm ability. Position yourself at a moderate distance from the frontline to maximize your healing output while staying safe from enemy duelists. Use Veil of Lightforce strategically to shield allies during key engagements or when retreating from a fight.

When your team has enough healing or you're being pressured by enemies, switch to Cloak to disrupt opponents and protect yourself. Use Darkforce Cloak to tether onto enemies for sustained damage, especially against flankers or low-health targets. Abilities like Terror Cape can blind enemies and make them vulnerable, which is particularly effective for neutralizing threats like Spider-Man or Black Widow. Additionally, Dark Teleportation can be used to reposition your team for an ambush or escape dangerous situations.

Timing your ultimate ability, Eternal Bond, is critical. Use it during pivotal moments in team fights to heal multiple allies while simultaneously damaging clustered enemies. Its mobility also allows you to reposition quickly, making it invaluable for both offensive pushes and defensive retreats. Always stay aware of which abilities are on cooldown—Cloak and Dagger share cooldowns between their forms, so managing these effectively is key to maximizing their impact.
