Ranked matches in *Marvel Rivals* can be challenging, especially when you're up against a triple support composition. This meta, which involves three healers like Cloak and Dagger, Susan Storm, Loki, Mantis, and Luna Snow, can be incredibly frustrating due to the excessive healing it provides. However, with the right strategy, you can effectively counter this seemingly unbeatable setup. Here's how to tackle the triple support meta in *Marvel Rivals*.
Marvel Rivals Triple Support Meta Explained
If you haven't yet faced the triple support meta in ranked, consider yourself fortunate. This strategy involves a team composition with three healers, typically a mix of the aforementioned characters, with Cloak and Dagger and Susan Storm being the most common choices. The remaining team slots are filled with either two Duelists and one tank or one Duelist and two tanks, depending on the team's preference.
Why Triple Support Meta Is So Strong
The strength of the triple support meta lies in the overwhelming healing capacity it offers. While this can be countered with sufficient damage output, the real challenge comes when these healers use their ultimate abilities. As you deal damage, the healers quickly charge their ults, which they can use to fully heal their team at critical moments, effectively nullifying any progress you might make.
How to Counter The Triple Support Meta in Marvel Rivals
Despite its dominance, the triple support meta has vulnerabilities. By choosing three healers, the enemy team sacrifices either a duelist or a tank, which you can exploit. Additionally, their reduced frontline presence means they can't effectively pressure your backlines.
The key to countering this meta is to use dive heroes to pressure their backlines and target the healers. Heroes like Venom as a secondary tank, and Wolverine or Iron Fist as dive duelists, can disrupt the enemy's defense by focusing on the healers. Simultaneously, selecting heroes that deal high burst damage can help maintain consistent pressure, allowing your dive team to capitalize on the healers' vulnerability.
Best Heroes Against the Triple Support Comp in Marvel Rivals
Here are some heroes that excel against the triple support meta:
- Winter Soldier: His ability to kill squishy targets quickly and deal burst damage makes him effective against healers. He can also hook and cancel enemy ults.
- Iron Fist: As a dive duelist, he pairs well with a dive tank like Venom, offering mobility and sustainability to keep pressuring the healers.
- Black Panther: While not as strong as Iron Fist, he can still sneak in attacks on the backlines.
- Venom: The best tank for diving onto healers, especially in a two-tank composition where he can pressure healers while the other tank holds the objective.
- Spider-Man: The premier dive duelist, hard to punish and capable of easily eliminating healers. His ult is also powerful in tough situations.
- Hawkeye/Black Widow: As snipers, they can target healers from a distance. With the enemy team lacking a second duelist or tank, snipers can operate with less threat.
- Iron Man: His aerial mobility makes him hard to track, and his ult can guarantee a kill if landed correctly.
