In Marvel Rivals, Cloak & Dagger are a unique Strategist hero duo, allowing players to switch between two distinct forms: Dagger (Tandy Bowen) focuses on healing and support, emitting light-based abilities to restore and enhance allies. Cloak (Tyrone Johnson) specializes in crowd control and damage, utilizing darkness to debilitate enemies and protect teammates. Effective play involves primarily operating as Dagger to sustain the team, then transitioning to Cloak for offensive maneuvers or to shield allies in critical moments. This dynamic gameplay requires strategic form-switching to adapt to the evolving battlefield.

Team-Up: Lunar Force

The Lunar Force Team-Up ability activates when Cloak & Dagger are paired with Moon Knight. This synergy allows Cloak & Dagger to infuse Moon Knight with light and dark energy, enabling him to create a Light & Dark Realm. Within this realm, Moon Knight becomes invisible for 6 seconds, facilitating surprise attacks or strategic repositioning. The ability has a 30-second cooldown and covers a 4-meter spherical radius.

How to Play Cloak & Dagger in Marvel Rivals: 5 Key Tips

Master Switching: Learn to switch between Cloak and Dagger strategically. Spend most of your time as Dagger for healing, but switch to Cloak for protection and crowd control. Use mouse scroll for faster switching on PC.
Optimize Dagger Storm: Use this ability to create a healing sphere for allies, then switch to Cloak to utilize his abilities. Keep it on the field whenever relevant for sustained team support.
Utilize Cloak's Defensive Abilities: Use Terror Cape to blind enemies and make them vulnerable. Dark Teleportation is crucial for escaping or countering burst ultimates like Iron Man's or Scarlet Witch's.
Position Strategically: As Dagger, stay behind your team to heal from safety. Use her vertical mobility to reach different platforms when being dived. As Cloak, maintain a 20-25m range for optimal damage output.
Time Your Ultimate Wisely: Use Eternal Bond to counter enemy ultimates, prevent team wipes, or contest crucial points. It provides massive healing and can turn the tide of a fight. Consider using it from high ground for better coverage.
