The Winter Soldier, also known as Bucky Barnes, is a Duelist hero introduced as the 24th character in the game's roster. As a brainwashed assassin turned ally, he wields an enhanced mechanical arm capable of delivering powerful blows. His abilities include a grapple with a 20-meter range that stuns enemies momentarily, allowing for quick eliminations with high headshot damage. Additionally, his attacks feature an area-of-effect component, dealing damage in a cone behind the initial target.

Team-Up: Ammo Overload

The Ammo Overload Team-Up ability involves Rocket Raccoon deploying an Ammo Overload Device that, when activated, grants The Punisher and Winter Soldier infinite ammunition and increased firing rates within its range. This synergy significantly enhances their damage output during engagements.

How to Play Mantis in Marvel Rivals

Master Ability Combos: Chain abilities for maximum impact. For example, use Bionic Hook to pull enemies close, follow with Trooper's Fist to launch them, then finish with Roterstern shots. This combo can quickly eliminate priority targets.
Optimize Kraken Impact Usage: Use your ultimate when enemies are clustered or low on health. Remember that killing marked enemies resets the cooldown, allowing for potential multi-kills. Take advantage of the brief hover time to aim carefully.
Manage Roterstern Ammo: Utilize your passive Ceaseless Charge by weaving abilities between shots to automatically reload. This allows for sustained damage output without manual reloading.
Focus on Positioning: While effective at mid-range, Winter Soldier excels in close combat. Use Trooper's Fist and Bionic Hook to close distances and create opportunities for precise headshots.
Disrupt Enemy Formations: Use Tainted Voltage to slow enemies and ground airborne targets, setting up easy picks for your team. This ability is crucial for crowd control and creating openings for your damage dealers.
