With Season 3.5 of Marvel Rivals around the corner, the community hype is very high. Blade will join the impressive lineup of heroes as another Duelist, while NetEase will also release a new event on the first day of the season. In addition to these, the new season will bring numerous changes, including a buff that will make one hero overpowered.

In this article, we will take a detailed look at a new Team-Up synergy that will boost three heroes. The new season will bring many buffs and nerfs, so we expect them to completely change the meta.

The upcoming Marvel Rivals buff will drastically boost two healers

With the release of Season 3.5, NetEase will add the Vibrant Vitality Team-Up. This synergy will include two Guardians of the Galaxy, Loki and Groot, alongside Loki. Mantis will be the Team-Up anchor, and as such, she will receive a massive buff to her healing abilities. Groot and Loki will get new abilities, which will make them much better.

Here is a summary of the changes:

It’s important to note that Mantis will receive a 10% buff in every match, regardless of whether Loki or Groot are on her team. On the other hand, Loki and Groot will require Mantis to gain new abilities.

With the new ability, Groot will be able to heal allies with his walls. Loki’s Regeneration Domain will be even bigger and boost allies’ stats while active. Considering how powerful this ability already is, the upcoming Marvel Rivals buff will make Loki unstoppable when used properly, which is why we expect to see him on the ban list much more frequently.
