Psylocke is a Duelist hero in Marvel Rivals, renowned for her agility and high burst damage. As a swift mid-to-close-range assassin, she excels in flanking maneuvers, utilizing her Psionic Crossbow to fire quick energy bolts that, when all hit, deal massive damage. Her Wing Shurikens attach to targets, and her invisibility allows for strategic positioning. Effective Psylocke players master her mobility and timing to dismantle enemy defenses.

How to Play Mantis in Marvel Rivals

Master Ability Combos: Start engagements with Psionic Crossbow to reduce cooldowns, then chain abilities like Wing Shurikens for damage and self-healing, followed by Psi-Blade Dash to close distance or escape.
Utilize Stealth Strategically: Use Psychic Stealth to sneak up on enemies for surprise attacks or as an escape mechanism. The movement speed boost allows for quick repositioning.
Prioritize Squishy Targets: Focus on eliminating vulnerable enemies like healers or damage dealers in the backline. Psylocke excels at quick assassinations of support characters and other Duelists.
Manage Cooldowns: Consistently use Psionic Crossbow to reduce cooldowns on other abilities. This allows for more frequent use of her powerful skills and maintains damage output.
Optimize Mobility: Use Psi-Blade Dash both horizontally and vertically to access high ground positions and escape routes. Combine this with map knowledge to stay near health packs for sustained flanking operations.
