Marvel Rivals Duelist · Season 10.5
Updated
Magik is a Duelist hero in Marvel Rivals with 275 health and a 3/5 difficulty rating. Magik joined the game in Season 0 on December 6, 2024. In Season 10.5 ranked, Magik has a 54.8% win rate (A tier, #6 of 54) and is picked by 7.4% of teams. Magik's team-ups are Chain of Cyttorak (with Doctor Strange) and Void Pentagram (with The Hood). The ultimate is Darkchild.
Her main sword swing hits for 75 damage with a long 6.5 m reach, though damage drops off past 4.5 m. Stay at the edge of melee range to hit safely without walking into a crowd.
Her ultimate turns her into Darkchild for 12 seconds and upgrades every one of her abilities. Pop it when she can stay in the fight for the full duration, not as a last-second escape.
A charged air slash that passes through enemies for 45 to 81 damage, peaking after 1.2 seconds of charge, on a 6-second cooldown. Every enemy it hits takes 1 second off Stepping Discs, so aim it through a group.
A 10 m teleport with 2 charges that recharge every 6 seconds, and Magik takes no damage while passing through. Afterwards she has 3 seconds to follow up with Eldritch Whirl or Demon's Rage.
Her left-click follow-up after Stepping Discs: a spinning sword attack for 50 damage around her in a 6 m radius. Teleport into the middle of several enemies to hit all of them.
Her right-click follow-up after Stepping Discs calls a Limbo demon with 100 health that stays for 4 seconds and attacks in front of it for 20 damage per hit. Drop it on a target that has nowhere to run.
A 16 m charge on an 8-second cooldown that deals 85 damage and knocks enemies into the air. Use it to start a dive or to throw a target off balance before her sword combo.
Her passive sustain: 30% of the damage she deals comes back as bonus health, capped at 150. The longer she keeps hitting, the longer she survives a brawl.

Magik has 2 team-up loadouts. Pick one before the match: it always works, and its enhanced effect turns on when the partner hero is on your team.
A new 20-second ability: a chain binds two enemies for 4 seconds, dealing 10 damage per second and pulling them together, slowing them up to 40% the farther apart they are. With Doctor Strange one cast can bind a whole group, which lines them up for Eldritch Whirl.
Ranked win rate with Doctor Strange: 59.8% (+5.0 vs Magik's 54.8% overall, 14,999 matches)
A new 20-second ability: an 8 m void circle lasts 5 seconds, and each Stepping Discs cast inside it recharges 3 seconds faster and summons a Limbo demon. With The Hood the demons get 125 health and a 9 m reach, so take it to hold one area.
Ranked win rate with The Hood: 60.3% (+5.5 vs Magik's 54.8% overall, 10,568 matches)
Magik has 275 health and relies on Stepping Discs to get in and out, so punish her right after both charges are spent, when the next one is up to 6 seconds away. Heroes who hold space give her trouble: Peni Parker's snares can immobilize her next to 100-damage mines, and Daredevil's Objection! blocks her sword from the front. Burst her down instead of trading slowly, because 30% of the damage she deals comes back to her as bonus health, up to 150.
