Marvel Rivals Strategist · Season 10.5
Updated
Mantis is a Strategist hero in Marvel Rivals with 250 health and a 1/5 difficulty rating. Mantis joined the game in Season 0 on December 6, 2024. In Season 10.5 ranked, Mantis has a 54.4% win rate (A tier, #7 of 54) and is picked by 5.9% of teams. Mantis's team-ups are Star Blossom (with Star-Lord) and Vitality Pact (with Adam Warlock). The ultimate is Soul Resurgence.
Her thorn shot deals 55 damage at 2.5 rounds per second from a 15-round clip. Critical hits refund a Life Orb, so aiming for heads keeps her buffs and heals flowing.
Her ultimate heals allies within 15 m for 200 at once, then 150 per second for 8 seconds, and turns overhealing into up to 150 bonus health. Allies also move faster, so push forward with the team while it runs.
Spends a Life Orb to heal one ally for 60, then 10 per second plus 2.5% of their max health for 8 seconds per orb, up to 16. She holds 4 orbs and regains one every 4 seconds, so keep it rolling on the front line.
Throws a spore at the closest enemy for 10 damage and puts them to sleep for 3.5 seconds, on a 15-second cooldown. Any hit on the target wakes them, as does breaking the illusion behind them, so use it to stop a diver rather than set up a kill.
Uses a Life Orb to give an ally 8% more damage and 1 m/s of extra speed for 8 seconds per orb spent, up to 16. Put it on your main damage dealer before a fight starts.
Spends a Life Orb on herself for a 12% damage boost lasting 8 seconds. Use it when she needs to finish a low-health target with her thorns.
Her passive: after 3 seconds without dealing or taking damage she moves 1.5 m/s faster, and every Life Orb she spends heals her for 12.5 per second over 8 seconds.

Mantis 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.
Changes Healing Flower: casting it again on an ally who already has it raises their heal to 10 per second plus 3.5% of max health and spreads healing to anyone within 8 m. With Star-Lord on the team every first cast gets that boost at once, which saves orbs.
Ranked win rate with Star-Lord: 61.0% (+6.6 vs Mantis's 54.4% overall, 3,966 matches)
Partner: Adam Warlock
When Mantis is defeated she roams as a soul, healing allies within 8 m for 5 per second, and picks where to come back, once every 90 seconds. With Adam Warlock the soul can also Soul Bond nearby allies to heal them and share damage, useful in long fights.
Ranked win rate with Adam Warlock: 58.5% (+4.1 vs Mantis's 54.4% overall, 2,025 matches)
Mantis has 250 health and no dash, so dive her as soon as Spore Slumber goes on its 15-second cooldown. Divers like Black Cat and Magik reach her fast, and going in with two at once means a single sleep cannot stop both. If a teammate is put to sleep, shoot the 100-health illusion behind them to wake them straight away.
