Best Heroes to Team Up With Human Torch
Human Torch is a new Duelist in Marvel Rivals. His kit excels in both crowd control and damage, making him a powerful threat. As a new flying hero, he can wreak havoc on the enemy backline. However, to truly maximize his potential, he needs theperfect team-up comboand synergy. Here are the five best heroes to team up with Human Torch in Marvel Rivals:
The first and most obvious choice is Storm. Human Torch and Storm have a new team-up ability calledBurning Hurricane. This ability activates when Human Torch’s ultimate is combined with Storm’s, unleashing a devastating fiery hurricane. This combination is so powerful that it could even surpass Luna Snow’s ultimate. This proves to be a game-changing meta, especially since Luna Snow’s ultimate is widely considered the strongest in the game.
Not to mention, there are currently no counter-ultimates that can handle Human Torch and Storm’s team-up ability. However, we have created a guide on which heroes to use toprevent Human Torch and Storm from teaming upin the game.
2. Invisible Woman
With The Thing and Human Torch now introduced, theFantastic Fourfamily is finally complete, unlocking the full team’s ultimate ability calledFantasti-Force. This team-up ability grantsThe Thing,Human Torch, andMister Fantasticbonus damage reduction and continuous passive healing.
This is an incredibly useful buff for Human Torch, as he is a Duelist who often dives into enemy lines using his Flaming Meteor skill. With the added shield and healing, Human Torch can handle more damage while devastating the enemy backline.
3. Moon Knight
The third hero is Moon Knight. Human Torch can trap enemies inside hisPyro Prison, where they take significant damage if they pass through the firewall. When combined with Moon Knight’sbouncing projectile, especially with an ankh inside, it will become a lethal combo against low-HP heroes like Strategists or long-range Duelists.
Additionally, Pyro Prison can hold enemies in place while Moon Knight unleashes his AoE ultimate, maximizing its damage potential. Just make sure to communicate well with your team to coordinate the combo and continuously dominate the enemy backline.
For aStragetist, Mantis is the best hero to team up with Human Torch, aside from Invisible Woman. Mantis canheal Human Torch from a distanceeasily, which is crucial since he will often be airborne. Her damage buff is also highly beneficial, giving Human Torch even more burst damage for his Pyro Prison and Flame Field abilities.
While her ultimate may not be fully optimized for flying heroes like Human Torch, her basic healing and damage buff make her the perfect support choice for him.
Last but not least is Thor. As aVanguard, Thor can deal massive damage during team fights, quickly melting enemy health bars. Human Torch is the perfect hero to finish off what Thor starts. By placing Flame Fields, or even better, Flaming Tornadoes, on enemies being chased by Thor, Human Torch can easily secure kills and swing fights in his team’s favor.
Additionally, Thor’sLightning Realmskills create a force field that damages enemies when they try to escape. When combined with Pyro Prison, enemies have little to no chance of surviving. Just remember to target healers first before focusing on tanks and Duelists to maximize your teams’ effectiveness.
Those are the best heroes to team up with Human Torch in Marvel Rivals. However, even with the best team-ups, communication and strategy are still key to making the most of Human Torch’s kit. Be sure to coordinate with your team to execute combos effectively and saveNew York from Vampires!
