All Marvel rivals characters with stun abilities

summary

• Use amazing abilities like the Hulk's radioactive lockdown to immobilize enemies, leaving them open to attack.
• Characters like Hela, Mantis and Scarlet Witch have unique stun abilities that can be strategic in battle.
• Ultimate attacks like Groot's Strangling Prison or Peni's Cyber-Web-Snare can stun multiple enemies, setting up for team attacks.

When the team is having trouble taking down an opponent who is constantly flying around the map and dodging attacks Marvel RivalsSometimes all that is needed is a quick and easy stun ability. Locking an enemy in place, even for a few seconds, leaves them open to attack, making these techniques especially useful for dealing with highly mobile duelists, or vanguards and healers who are trying to support their team.

Although there are quite a few characters in the game that have attacks that have a slow effect, being able to completely immobilize an enemy fighter is a bit rare, considering how powerful it can be to do so. However, there are still a handful of heroes who can pull it off, making them a huge asset to their team by helping to make everyone's jobs a little easier.

8 the hulk

Hulk can leap into the backline and stun enemies with his radioactive lockdown

• Radioactive Lockdown: Emits gamma energy to immobilize enemies and render them immune to all ability effects

When the Hulk isn't buffing his teammates or standing in the line of fire to keep his allies safe, he's able to unleash his radioactive lockdown that can immobilize an enemy for a few seconds. Being able to pull this off as a vanguard makes the Hulk incredibly useful.

For example, he can not only use it to stop any high damage DPS enemies like Star-Lord or Scarlet Witch, but he can also completely immobilize enemy healers, who may be hiding behind their larger teammates. . In fact, through the use of the Hulk's incredible leap, the green brute is able to reach enemy backlines with ease, meaning shutting down enemies is quick and simple, no matter how much the target tries to hide.

7 Hela

Hela can stun her opponents while she prepares her other devastating abilities in the meantime

• Soul Extraction: Project an explosive hell field to stun nearby enemies

Soul Drainer can only root an enemy for a little over a second, but it still gives Hela enough time to finish off her other abilities that come with a long startup animation, especially her Piercing Knight attack. At the same time, Hela can also use Soul Drainer when planning a quick getaway with the Astral Flock, making sure she doesn't fall down before she takes to the skies.

The only downsides to this ability are that it has a very short range, and a long cooldown, so it's definitely not something to be wasted. However when using the ability, it can help to try and aim the reticle above the target's head, as its curved trajectory will allow it to drop directly over them.

6 Mantis

Mantis' Spore Slumber can send enemies to sleep, even as they continue their final attack

• Spore Sleep: Throws spores to send enemies to sleep

There are a few different ways Mantis' super powerful Spore Sleep can be used. For one, Mantis himself can take it out when he is attacked, where this would be especially useful if the enemy is an air-based fighter who will be sent into a deep sleep as soon as the spore is released.

It can also be used to disable certain enemy's final attacks before fully unleashing them. Using it this way may take a little practice, as the range is quite poor, as long as players are close enough, Mantis' Spore Slumber will always be a big help, especially considering the long duration of its effects, which can keep the enemy out of battle for a while.

5 The Scarlet Witch

Dark Seal is a unique, but very difficult ability to use effectively

• Dark Seal: Land a hit on a target to generate a force field that periodically stuns enemies in range.

Dark Seal is the oddest stun ability in the game, in the sense that it takes more than throwing it directly at an enemy to work. When thrown out, the dark seal would take a moment or two before bursting into a small ball field, and anyone caught in the barrier would periodically be stunned in place.

The best way to use this tricky ability is to sneak behind enemy lines through the use of Mystic Projection, and then pull it out when opponents least suspect it. It's an easy way to throw the opposing team off their game, while making it much easier for the Scarlet Witch's teammates to land their shots.

4 Groot

Groot's ultimate powers multiple enemies at once which can be used in conjunction with his allies.

• Prison by strangulation: Fire a giant cluster that pulls nearby enemies into its center and traps them

Of course, Groot's only stun ability is his ultimate attack, Strangling Gel, which means it can only be used once or twice in a regular match. However, the ability makes up for this weakness by targeting multiple enemies at once. The way it works is that Groot will shoot out a wave of branches that will pull any nearby enemies together, imprisoning them and unable to move, essentially turning them into sitting ducks.

Groot's kit centers around him providing as much nuisance as possible for the enemy team, including this ultimate attack that can work wonders when used in conjunction with other helpful abilities. For example, if Groot immobilizes two to three enemies, the Punisher can use his Calling Turret or Final Attack to wipe them out in seconds, and that's just one of the many combos that can be deployed here.

3 Penny Parker

After stunning her enemies, Penny can surround them with her deadly explosive drones.

• cyber-web-net: Cast a futuristic web that immobilizes an enemy or creates a cyber-web.

Multiple uses of Penny's cyber-web-snare ability can allow her to play some mind games on her opponent. If the web is aimed directly at an enemy, it will engulf them leaving them unable to move and an open target for the rest of the team. However, if Penny misses an enemy and shoots it to the surface, it will instead create a cyber-web that will increase her speed.

Therefore, enemy fighters need to quickly guess if she's going to try and shut them down with a stun, or if she's just trying to get a buff, which can cause a lot of anxiety on the enemy team. Once Penny has locked down an enemy, it gives her time to unleash her own explosive spider-drones around them to melt away their health bar as they break free.

2 squirrel girl

Squirrel Blockade will freeze an enemy in place while Squirrel Girl hits them with burst acorns

• Squirrel blockade: Launch the acorn to eliminate the squirrel guards, capturing the first hit enemy.

Squirrel Blockade can be a bit difficult to use effectively as it is very easy to completely reverse this ability. However, it's worth noting that this ability can be charged, so it's always a good idea to take some time to activate it instead of throwing it out as quickly as possible.

Once the squirrel guards complete their target, they will surround them, disabling their movement for a few seconds while the other characters take a few potshots at them in the meantime. Considering how damaging Squirrel Girl's own attacks are to her Burst Acorns, she can also make quick work of an enemy herself when caught by surprise with this ability.

1 Luna Snow

Luna's Iceball makes her a healer that no enemy wants to be near

• absolute zero: Cast Ice Swarm to freeze hit enemy and restore health

Luna Snow is one of the most annoying tacticians in the game to face enemy teams not only because of her fast movement speed and health regeneration but also because of her amazing abilities. With the press of a button, Luna can shoot out a giant snowball to immobilize a target in place, and since the ice fires in a straight line, it can even hit enemies from long distances when used correctly.

Of course, this ability is, first and foremost, about assisting the rest of the team and setting up free kills, but Luna can activate it to get out of dangerous situations. Either way, this one ability could make life a lot easier for Luna's allies, while acting as a lifeline for the K-pop star herself.
