Strategies for Playing Hulk in Marvel Rivals

The Bruce Banner form is best suited as a last resort after utilizing Hero Hulk’s capabilities. If you find yourself frequently transforming back into Bruce, it may indicate an opportunity to optimize your strategic approach.

When controlling Hero Hulk, leverage his capacity to penetrate enemy frontlines, creating distraction and chaos. Work in tandem with Duelists to eliminate priority targets while consistently building up gamma energy, as maximized duration in Monster Hulk notably increases your offensive effectiveness.

In both Hero Hulk and Monster Hulk forms, make the most of your notable mobility to navigate combat zones adeptly. Always be prepared to use leap abilities to retreat or reposition as necessary.

Finally, employing Radioactive Lockdown effectively can initiate encounters, providing your team a critical advantage to secure eliminations or establish control of the battlefield.

For those who might find Hulk challenging to master, alternative heroes like Wolverine and Hawkeye can provide excellent gameplay experiences as well.
