MultiVersus Rick is a mage/ranged character from the famous cartoon called Rick & Morty. He has a laser, rockets, and Mr. Meeseeks summons, which provide him with different poking and zoning options. As a mage hero, he can use numerous spells to buff his teammates while using many others to debuff his opponents.
Rick's skills take a long time to recharge, which means that he will not be able to use them often, but when he does, he creates disorder against opponents with portals and delayed projectiles. In summary, getting comfortable with Rick is generally more challenging than with other heroes because you need to get acquainted with different charges and what buttons trigger his skills.
Thus, this MultiVersus Rick guide will thoroughly explain all of his essential combos, perks, and many more aspects.
Rick embodies the essence of neutral control and cooperation with allies to create effective combos. He can summon portals for his teammates, allowing them to pass through or send projectiles.
Moreover, Rick can enhance his allies by using his cooldown abilities, though the effectiveness of these enhancements depends on proper coordination with his team due to the nature of his high-skill ceiling combo.
The following are some of Rick's best combos that you can execute in battles:
