Marvel Rivals community discusses how the ultimate ability of Moon Knight has been dealing unintended damage and finishing targets faster than they can react. Moon Knight is one of the few S-tier duelists who excels at dealing damage, which causes gamers going against him to feel frustrated at the low TTK (time to kill) of his ultimate. Players have been expressing their own opinions regarding counters and sharing experiences of having been killed by the Hand of Khonshu.
On a Reddit thread shedding light on this discussion, Redditor u/DawgLuvrrrrr stated:

"lol I hate his ultimate so much. Really the only thing I can think of to counter it is hulk bubble; to some extent magneto but not rly feasible for the entire team. Or a stupid fast reaction time on a super mobile hero. But it’s truly a healers worst nightmare"
They shared their thoughts on how healers are the ones who have the worst time against Moon Knight's ultimate. Another Reddit user, u/YetAnotherBee, replied to this stating:
"I just had a Rocket game tonight where someone started a sentence in VC with the word “The” and I just instinctively wasted both of my dashes immediately and got myself killed. That ult gives me so much ptsd"
The OP of this thread, u/Dillonstone, stated:
"I literally cannot teleport as Magik fast enough. Even if I hit the button right away. They need to fix it. I play Magneto too. About 75 percent of the time I can't bubble fast enough to save myself or a teammate. They know it's a glitch, but won't fix it. It's infuriating. Haha"
Most of the time, even Magneto Shields are unable to save a player or their teammates due to incorrect TTK predictions after hearing the ultimate voice line. u/Dillonstone further stated that it is the lack of any possible fixes that makes this situation that much more infuriating.

Another Reddit user, u/knotatumah cleverly stated that the most reliable counter to this ultimate is actually the Moon Knight player themselves misplacing the ult or their own team playing in scattered positions to avoid getting one shot by the Hand of Khonshu. They said:
"The only counter to Moon Knight's ult is the player fucking up placing it or your team spreads apart so much you can't realistically defend or push an objective because you're too afraid of the ult."
A Reddit user, u/Legualt replied to this, explaining the benefits of having a spread-out positioning. They stated:
"A little bit of spreading out actually is a good counter, because it is only the middle part of the ultimate that does double damage, so if people only get hit by the edges the can easily walk out before they die."
Lastly, a Redditor u/SmashMouthBreadThrow commented on the state of the game where developers are waiting on midseason patches to push out possible fixes for glitches. They said:
"Their patching process is going to be the thing that hurts this game the most. It doesn't take a month to correct an ult doing double damage. I guess developers haven't realized that waiting forever to push out a midseason patch with possible fixes people want is usually a detriment to every single game that does this. I want changes in between that window. QoL like letting us completely skip the launcher and startup videos are things they could get done in an hour and push to live for PC because they aren't gameplay changes that require console to be on the same build."
They stated that this hurts the competitive integrity of the game as many of the QoL improvements the Marvel Rivals community has been asking for do not even require consoles to be on the same build.
