Spider-Man is one ofMarvel Rivals' deadly Duelists, though he has a reputation for being difficult to play. His web-swinging makes him incredibly mobile and allows him to spend a lot of time in the air, making him just as dangerous as some of the game’s notorious flying heroes. He also has the ability to pull enemies toward him and can follow up with an uppercut that allows him to knock foes into the air. His ultimate ability hits everyone around him with webs, allowing him to deal an extreme amount of damage within just a few seconds. While he may not be the easiest hero to learn, those who do master his ability kit can be a real asset to their team.
