How to Play The Punisher in Marvel Rivals: 5 Key Tips

Master Positioning and Vantage Points: Use Vantage Connection to reach high ground and maintain advantageous positions. This allows you to apply pressure from unexpected angles and control key areas of the map.
Optimize Weapon Usage: Switch between Adjudication (assault rifle) for sustained medium-range damage and Deliverance (shotgun) for close-range burst damage. The shotgun is particularly effective against aggressive flankers and can one-shot squishy targets.
Utilize Culling Turret Strategically: Deploy the turret in choke points to block enemy advances and deal massive damage. Ensure it's placed where enemies can't easily flank it, as it's vulnerable from behind.
Time Final Judgement Wisely: Activate your ultimate when enemies are clustered or when you need to secure a kill. Be aware of your movement speed penalty during its use and ensure you're in position before activating it.
Maintain Mobility and Escape Routes: Use Scourge Grenade to create a smoke screen and leap backward for quick escapes. Combine this with Vantage Connection to maintain mobility and avoid being caught out of position.
