Rocket Raccoon
See? I'm flarkin' helpful.Rocket Raccoon is a strategist in Marvel Rivals, specializing in healing, utility, and mobility. His primary role is to support his team by keeping them alive with healing spheres, reviving fallen allies with his B.R.B. ability, and providing buffs like damage amplification through his C.Y.A. ultimate. Rocket's high mobility, including Jetpack Dash and wall-climbing capabilities, allows him to reposition quickly, scout for his team, or escape dangerous situations. While his damage output is moderate, his value lies in his ability to sustain and empower his teammates during fights.
Rocket thrives in team compositions with durable vanguards like Groot or Hulk, who can protect him while he heals from the backline. However, Rocket's low health makes him vulnerable to burst damage from heroes like Psylocke or Spider-Man, requiring careful positioning and map awareness to stay effective.
How to play Rocket Raccoon in Marvel Rivals
Rocket's mobility tools are key to his survivability and utility. Use Jetpack Dash to quickly reposition during fights or escape when enemies close in on you. Combine this with wall-climbing and hovering mechanics to access high ground or hard-to-reach areas where you can safely support your team.
When deploying the B.R.B., place it in a safe location where it won't be easily destroyed but is still within range of fallen teammates who need reviving. Ensure you're not exposing yourself unnecessarily while placing it.
Rocket's ultimate ability, C.Y.A., is best used during pivotal moments in team fights or when contesting objectives. Position it where multiple allies can benefit from the damage boost while staying protected from enemy fire. Alternatively, use it as a distraction; enemies may focus on destroying the amplifier, giving your team an opportunity to capitalize on their split attention.
