5 best heroes to team-up with Loki in Marvel Rivals

Loki in Marvel Rivals is one the more difficult Strategists to master as his ability kit is focused on tricking enemies with temporary invisibility and illusions. This makes it difficult to concentrate on providing healing to allies, dealing damage, and positioning yourself at the same time. This character can also copy another hero in the match completely with his ultimate ability.

Loki in Marvel Rivals can heal allies with his basic primary attack and also dish out damage to enemies. His Regeneration Domain is a unique skill that can create zones for healing that convert incoming damage into heals as well. However, the conversion rate is only 30% so it acts more like a damage reduction spell. Loki can also perform melee attacks that deal extra damage when stabbing an opponent from the back.

That said, this article will explore the 5 best heroes to team-up with Loki in Marvel Rivals.

Best heroes to team-up with Loki in Marvel Rivals

Here are some of the most effective heroes you can pick to team up with Loki in Marvel Rivals:

1) Hela

Hela is one of the best supervillains to duo with Loki in Marvel Rivals. She can be the ultimate damage dealer in your team, dishing out tons of damage — often killing enemies with just two or three well-placed headshots from a distance. Moreover, her ultimate ability can annihilate entire teams if used at the right moment, helping you stop pushes instantly.

Hela primarily works well with Loki because of their Laufeyson Reborn team-up ability. If you play as Loki and have a Hela in your team, she can instantly resurrect you if she lands the final killing blow on an enemy. Doing so can also grant Loki bonus health if he’s still alive.

2) Thor

Thor Odinson is the brother of Loki in Marvel Rivals, which makes him one of his best partners in mischief. Thor is part of the vanguard class, which makes him a frontline hero that your team depends on to stay on the objective. Thor also has many powerful abilities like his Hammer Throw and God of Thunder super.

This vanguard is best used with Loki since the latter can use his Regeneration Domain ability on contested points to help Thor survive longer. Moreover, if the enemies are busy targeting Thor, you can sneak up behind them using Loki’s Deception ability, backstabbing them and dealing massive damage.

3) Storm

Storm is an underrated duelist in Marvel Rivals. She can use her Weather Control ability to empower allies while using the Goddess Boost ability to empower herself. Loki's ability to launch healing at her while she rains down lightning on enemies makes the two an ideal duo.

Moreover, since both of Storm's aforementioned abilities have an area of effect radius where it’s effective, using Loki’s Regeneration Domain will help you heal Storm and your other allies around you. This will be effective while contesting points and capturing them.

4) Scarlet Witch

Scarlet Witch can be a powerful duelist to team up with Loki in Marvel Rivals since her ability requires less accurate aim. You will deal damage to enemies as long as you point in their general direction. Moreover, her basic attacks restore her Chaos Energy, which you can use to deal damage using her Chthonian Burst ability.

However, the primary reason why she is a great duo with Loki in Marvel Rivals is because of her Dark Seal attack, which can stun enemies. While stunned, Loki can use his Deception ability to become invisible and stab them in the back to deal massive damage.

Moreover, the Scarlet Witch can also become invisible using her Mystic Projection ability, allowing both Loki and her to sneak up behind enemies and surprise them. As such, learning how to play Scarlet Witch in Marvel Rivals will be beneficial.

5) Doctor Strange

However, the primary reason why everyone’s favorite doctor is a great duo to pair with the God of Mischief is because of his Pentagram of Farallah ability that creates portals between two points. This allows Loki to come back near teammates more quickly once you die and respawn again far away.

Loki in Marvel Rivals has yet to occupy a meta spot. Although this hero does get picked, it may be difficult to accommodate him in all team compositions. This is where you should have clear communication with the team and discuss the picks while preparing for some strategies. Loki has evasion skills but they are slow and do not exactly make it possible for quick relocation.

Loki can perform consistently by fighting alongside the Vangurds and placing his clones around the map. This makes it easier for the team to take cover, and receive heals, and also confuses the enemy team. Since his clones also need to be shot to be destroyed, it can distract the opponents and help your allies launch attacks.
