Exploring the 5 best heroes you can use to counter Loki in Marvel Rivals
1) Doctor Strange
Loki is a strategist class hero in the game. Thus, while he doesn't have a big health pool in the title, he has good healing prowess. He also has the ability to create a fake of himself and, if needed, teleport to that fake's place. This is a unique ability that can be used creatively to confuse your enemies. Thus, you'll need a hero who can counter Loki with the same mystical prowess.
Trending
Doctor Strange is a Vanguard-class hero in Rivals. This means that he has a high health pool, giving you more time to deal with Loki's shenanigans. Strange can also use his Pentagram of Farallah to create portals and instantly teleport between different points on the map, rivaling the Devious Exchange ability of the God of Mischief.
2) Hawkeye
While Loki does have the ability to heal himself and his allies, it does mean that he needs to avoid direct confrontation with competent Duelists in the game, especially long-range specialists, given they can two-shot or even one-shot him.
Hawkeye is a long-range hero you can use to counter Loki Laufeyson in the hero shooter. His charged arrows can do massive damage even from longer ranges. If he hits accurate shots, the player can shred Loki's health with absolute ease. He also has a good variety of melee counters, allowing him to deal with the Backstab ability of the Laufeyson.
3) Namor
While Loki doesn't have the greatest damage output, his main strength lies in the creative use of his abilities, where he can make himself appear in two places. Diverting the attention of his enemies and allowing his allies to strike while they're distracted. As such, having a turret-based character can help your team manage the addition.
Namor is one hero you can use to counter Loki. While his primary attack of throwing his Trident of Neptune can be slow, his Aquatic Dominion ability is the main damage dealer of the character. The autonomous turret can independently hit enemies if they enter his line of sight, making for essentially an extra damage dealer in the team if positioned correctly.
4) Iron Fist
The God of Mischief has a good amount of melee-based moves, whether it be the Backstab ability or being able to become invisible on a whim. He also has great damage prowess in close range. As such, choosing a character that is proficient in close-quarters combat can be a great choice to counter Loki.
Iron Fist, keeping in touch with his comic-book counterpart, is one of the best melee heroes you can choose in the game. His Yat Jee Chung Kuen flurry of attacks can provide a massive wallop to any player's health bar while being extremely hard to escape unless Loki has to use his teleport. His K’un-Lun Kick can also be a great ability to close the gap between you and your nemeses.
5) Spider-Man
Loki's teleport ability can be extremely frustrating, as it essentially works as a get-out-of-jail card if set up beforehand. As such, choosing a superhero character in the hero shooter who has great mobility and agility can be a great option to counter Loki.
Spider-Man has one of the best traversal systems in the Duelist class. His ability to use webbings to swing around the map can be a great ability to get hold of the God of Mischief. Players can then use his Get Over Here! move to instantly close the gap between them, allowing the arachnid-teen to pummel down the Laufeyson.
