Summary
- A Marvel Rivals player wins a match with 6 Strategists characters, surprising the community.
- Strategists in Marvel Rivals are proving to be strong, despite initial doubts, as they can do a decent amount of damage alongside their healing abilities.
A Marvel Rivals player did the unexpected and won a match with a team full of Strategists. Like other hero shooters, Marvel Rivals divides its playable characters into classes. Strategists act as the game’s support and have the task of protecting their allies’ health bar with their abilities, but they often lack the health and damage to survive without protection.
However, since Marvel Rivals‘ launch, a recurring problem has been the inability of players to assemble balanced teams. It’s not hard to find complaints from people who have got teams with only Duelists, who are the game’s DPS, without a Vanguard to make up the front line. There are also complaints about the lack of people willing to play as Strategists and keep their team alive. But while the community is learning how to play Marvel Rivals, one gamer has pulled off an unlikely feat.

A Marvel Rivals fan shares a clever trick to counter Jeff, surprising the community with the simplicity of what players need to do.
Redditor OfficialOnslot won a Marvel Rivals match with a team of only Strategists and shared a screenshot of the incredible result. The image shows the post-match screen with the team composition, in which they played as Cloak and Dagger and had Loki, Mantis, Rocket Raccoon, Luna Snow, and Jeff as allies.

Team Full of Strategists Gives the Spotlight to Marvel Rivals’ Supports
While their team followed an unexpected composition, their opponents opted for more offensive picks, with Starlord, Hawkeye, and Namor as Duelists. Thor, one of the Marvel Rivals‘ tanks, was the only front line, while Luna and Jeff were the Strategists. In the comments, players reacted with good humor and shared less fortunate cases, such as full DPS and tank team matches that resulted in defeat. Another Redditor said that for them, the Strategist is the strongest class in the game right now because, along with being able to heal, the heroes can still dish out decent damage.
Since Marvel Rivals is in its early days, players are exploring the NetEase game’s roster to discover the strongest heroes and which ones they are most comfortable with. It’s important to note that although the devs haven’t published statistics such as pick and win rates on the shooter’s official website, some Marvel Rivals heroes are already standing out. Strategist players, specifically, are having a good time with Loki’s clones, enjoying the play potential with Cloak and Dagger, and causing mayhem with Jeff’s ultimate.
