Peni Parker is a Vanguard in Marvel Rivals who does not have the best pick rates in high-tier lobbies owing to other tanks like Doctor Strange and Hulk being dominant. However, Peni Parker can be extremely effective, especially with her Arachno-Mine ability. Having said that, with the recent discovery of a few specific lineups for her mines, she can potentially get free kills even before the round begins.

This article will provide a detailed overview of the lineups and how to use them.

Note: It is advisable to try out the lineups in the custom mode before heading into other modes, as they require a moderate amount of precision to work.

How to get free kills with Peni Parker in Marvel Rivals

While attacking on the Convergence map, Intergalactic Empire of Wakanda, Peni Parker can place her mines even before the game starts. Here's how you can do this and earn some easy kills:

Lineup #1

You can follow our step-by-step guide for the first lineup:

Step 1

Head to the back of the spawn room and jump up on the platform at the far end.

Step 2

Place yourself between the Bast statue on the right and the pillar.

Step 3

Look up and aim slightly above the top of the orange building that is poking out, as shown in the image. This is how it should look in-game:

If you follow the steps correctly, the mines should fly over the spawn area and land just below the bridge near the first capture area. This will catch your opponents off-guard as they will not expect enemy mines this early in the game.
