Spider-Man and Squirrel Girl, both ESU (Empire State University) alumni, share incredible synergy. With her Team-Up ability, Doreen can summon Spider-Man to deliver a Webbed Acorn via her slingshot.

The seamless switch between Cloak and Dagger mid-match lets you adapt to any situation. Whether you're pushing objectives or holding ground, this partnership is a force to reckon with.

His ultimate, Karmic Revival, is a game changer, reviving downed allies just as the respawn timer ticks, resetting the momentum of a match and giving Squirrel Girl a second chance at victory.
