Marvel Rivals Tier List — Season 1.5
Doctor Strange remains a dominant vanguard due to his versatile portal mechanics, which allow unique flanking and positioning opportunities. His ultimate ability provides significant crowd control, making him a staple in high-level play.
Storm is frequently banned because of her powerful zoning ultimate, which effectively controls objectives and chokepoints. Her long-range damage and area denial capabilities make her invaluable in team fights.
Hela excels at long-range combat with high mobility and transformation abilities that allow her to reposition quickly. Her ultimate is devastating from afar, making her a top-tier choice for offensive strategies.
Magneto excels in Domination mode due to his ability to deliver consistent mid-range damage while protecting allies with his shield management. His versatility in both offense and defense solidifies his position in the meta.
Rocket Raccoon offers exceptional utility through survivability, strong team-ups, and revivals on a relatively short cooldown.
Invisible Woman is highly valued for her displacement abilities, allowing her to set up kills or escape dangerous situations effectively. Her balanced kit and powerful defensive ultimate make her a reliable pick in objective-based game modes.
Winter Soldier is highly regarded for his burst damage potential and ability to secure eliminations quickly. However, limited ammo management requires careful play.
Namor, Luna Snow, Adam Warlock, Psylocke, Wolverine, Star-Lord, Cloak and Dagger, and Mantis all possess strong individual kits but require deeper mastery to maximize their impact. They excel when played by dedicated mains who fully understand their abilities and timing.
The Thing, introduced this season, is robust with strong area-of-effect punches and a charging tackle. However, his predictable approach limits strategic flexibility compared to higher-tier vanguards like Hulk or Doctor Strange.
Human Torch, also new this season, provides agile combat with fiery zoning abilities similar to Storm but lacks the same level of consistent utility or crowd control effectiveness. Aerial characters are fairly dominant in lower ranks especially, but he demands precise positioning due to his squishiness.
