Marvel Rivals’ team-up abilities have become a key component of the game’s dynamic, hero-based action, keeping players engaged with new strategies each season. These abilities enable characters to combine their abilities, resulting in powerful combos that can change the tide of battle.
Team-ups offer dimension to the fast-paced 6v6 action, allowing players to try out different combinations and approaches. Each season, NetEase reworks these abilities, retiring older ones to make way for bold interactions that reflect the game’s growing roster and shifting meta.
For instance, Wolverine’s famed Fastball Special, a fan favorite due to its high-damage charge, is expected to be phased away in Season 3, generating speculation about what comes next for the clawed mutant. Dataminers and leakers have revealed one X-Men combination generating high anticipation for their fiery, synergistic potential with Wolverine’s energy.
Marvel Rivals Season 3 leaked to bring Wolverine and Phoenix team-up ability
Latest Marvel Rivals leaks hint that the Wolverine-Phoenix team-up might launch as early as Season 3’s anticipated rollout, coinciding with the game’s six-week update schedule. This rumor emerges from a post by X0X_Leak, who revealed what the ability could look like.
The leak reveals that Wolverine will receive a movement boost and a Rage reward while leveraging Phoenix’s telekinetic abilities. This also means that his current Fastball Special ability, where he’s thrown into the battlefield by Hulk and The Thing, will retire. Furthermore, the same team-up is also rumored to block use of his Feral Leap, meaning a new movement mechanic for the hero is on the way.
While Wolverine is finally getting a new ability in Season 3, players are disappointed that Phoenix won’t get a team-up ability where she can benefit from and channel her inner mutant synergy. One such user wrote, “Wolverine and Phoenix and that’s it? My girl doesn’t have girly mutant abilities together? So tired.” But that’s not all – more info has leaked about Marvel Rivals Season 3, including the theme, Battle Pass skins, as well as a Summer Event that’s fast approaching in the game.
