Johnny Storm, also known as the Human Torch, is about to blaze in Marvel Rivals where he’s set to light up the existing Fantastic Four roster. Aside from Human Torch, other members of Marvel’s first family like Invisible Woman and the genius Mr. Fantastic, have already made an appearance in the game.
By adding Invisible Woman’s defensive force shields and Mr. Fantastic’s elastic reach, the game’s roster now has more strategic depth, which changes the mechanics of the fight dramatically. Now that word has gotten out that Human Torch and The Thing are on the way, players are excited.
Human Torch’s abilities have been leaked online and are said to give players the power to control flames and unleash deadly attacks. Fans are giddy with anticipation over these leaks, as they want to know how Human Torch will work with the existing cast, especially in potential team-ups that could enhance the game’s strategic options. Here are all the leaked abilities of Human Torch in Marvel Rivals.
Human Torch abilities in Marvel Rivals
Human Torch is a Duelist with level 3 difficulty in Marvel Rivals. The hero is said to feature his iconic flaming abilities where he’ll be able to transform his body in flames and throw fireballs at enemies.
Here’s a look at all of Human Torch’s abilities in Rivals.
Ability | Key Input | Description |
---|---|---|
Fire Cluster | Left click | Launch forward a spittable fireball. |
Supernova (Ultimate) | Q | Unleash shockwaves to deal damage to enemies within range. During skill activation, the flame field will transform into a flame tornado. |
Plasma Body | LShift | Hold LSHIFT to enter a state of accelerated ascent. |
Pyro-Prison | E | Connect flame fields to form a fire wall that deals burning damage to enemies. |
Flaming Meteor | F | Dive towards the ground and stun nearby enemies. |
Blazing Blast | Right-mouse click | Launch a fireball to create a flame field at the targeted area |
Omega Fire (Team-Up Ability) | Passive | Storm can consume one of Human Torch’s fire tornadoes into her ultimate to ignite her hurricane. Likewise, Human Torch can turn Storm’s hurricane into a fiery hurricane with his ultimate, which will then enlarge and intensify any of his fire tornadoes caught in its path. |
Supernova, Human Torch’s ultimate power, causes him to burst into a tremendous explosion of light and fire. He would be able to clear hordes of enemies with this area-of-effect attack, delivering huge damage and possibly resetting the cooldowns on his other abilities. Due to its huge impact, Supernova may be the deciding play in matches where control points or objectives are the focus.
Human Torch’s Pyro Prison is another control ability that allows him to summon fire barriers that can trap enemies and cause damage to them both inside and when they attempt to escape. To increase team damage or guarantee kills, this could work in tandem with other characters’ abilities.
