The Human Torch, also known as Johnny Storm, is a Duelist hero introduced in Season 1.5. He excels in area control and high area-of-effect damage, utilizing his pyrokinesis to ignite enemies and create fiery zones on the battlefield. His abilities make him effective at controlling choke points and objectives, though players have noted challenges in distinguishing between friendly and enemy flames during intense team fights.

Team-Up: Storming Ignition

The Storming Ignition Team-Up ability activates when Storm and Human Torch are on the same team. This synergy allows them to combine their ultimate abilities to create a massive, flaming tornado, significantly enhancing their offensive capabilities.

Team-Up: Fantastic Four

The Fantastic Four members—Mister Fantastic, Invisible Woman, Human Torch, and The Thing—possess unique Team-Up abilities that activate when specific pairs are on the same team: Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman: This synergy grants Mister Fantastic increased damage resistance and continuous health regeneration, enhancing his durability in combat. Human Torch and The Thing: When these two heroes are paired, they can perform the 'Fastball Special,' where The Thing hurls Human Torch into the air, allowing him to unleash a powerful aerial attack upon enemies below.

How to Play Human Torch in Marvel Rivals: 5 Key Tips

Master Aerial Mobility: Utilize Plasma Body to maintain aerial advantage, making you harder to hit while allowing you to reposition quickly. Practice erratic flight patterns to avoid snipers and precision characters.
Control Space with Flame Fields: Use Blazing Blast strategically to create Flame Fields that control key areas and choke points. These fields can deny space to enemies and set up for powerful combos.
Execute Quick Burst Combos: Master the animation-canceling combo of Fire Cluster > Blazing Blast > Flaming Meteor for devastating burst damage. This combo can quickly eliminate 250-300 HP heroes at close to medium range.
Time Supernova Wisely: Activate your ultimate when enemies are clustered or to transform existing Flame Fields into damaging Flame Tornados. Coordinate with teammates like Storm for enhanced effects.
Play Mid-Range and Near Cover: Position yourself at optimal range (25-30m) where you can reliably hit shots while maintaining safety. Stay near cover to survive longer and dodge high-damage enemies like Iron Fist or Hulk.
