Venom and other heroes to duo with Spider-Man in Marvel Rivals

1) Venom

Venom is one of the only two characters in the game with whom Spider-Man can perform a Team Up ability. Being a duelist, having a tank like Venom for protection and support is always a great strategy.

Their Team-Up ability, Suit Expulsion, allows Venom to give his Symbiote to Spider-Man. Spider-Man can use it to make explosive spikes that damage multiple enemies nearby and also slightly push them back.

Both of them have web-swinging abilities too, which allows them to travel long distances in a very short time with ease.

If you want to frustrate and confuse the enemies, dueling up with Jeff The Land Shark would be a great choice. Jeff can go underground using the Hide and Seek ability and become a very difficult target for the enemies to hit, while Spider-Man can attack them from above along with web-swinging.

This combination of both under- and above-the-ground attacks could play with the opponents' minds and lead you to an easy win. Moreover, Jeff has multiple healing abilities to stay alive and support the allies, even when he is at the center of the battleground.

The duo of Iron Fist and Spider-Man could be one of the most frustrating to face in the game. Both are extremely fast, which makes locking your aim on them quite difficult. Plus, both have their way of pushing forward.

While Spider-Man is swinging around and distracting others, Iron Fist can utilize his Living Chi ability to keep up with the pace and deal some serious close-range damage to the opponents.


5) Hulk

The duo of Hulk and Spider-Man in Marvel Rivals is yet another interesting one to explore. Being one of the strongest tanks, Hulk can provide all the support that Spider-Man could require while pushing.

With Hulk being the center of the opponents' attention, Spider-Man would be able to quickly pop in and out to deal damage and take kills.


That's all the best heroes to duo with Spider-Man in Marvel Rivals. It is to be noted that Rivals is a relatively new game and major changes could arrive in the abilities of the characters in the coming weeks. Considering this, the list is subject to change, based on the future meta.
