Summary & Playstyle

Cloak & Dagger bring a unique duality to Marvel Rivals, combining control with support-like utility. Cloak’s shadows provide zoning and protective coverage, while Dagger’s light pierces through to punish enemies at range. Together, they thrive in creating space and denying safe ground for enemies, excelling in midline control and tempo play. Their playstyle rewards coordination and timing. Cloak isolates enemies with displacement and vision control, while Dagger delivers precise bursts that punish missteps. They work best in comps that value layered control, giving duelists and vanguards room to capitalize on forced positioning errors. Their versatility makes them strong in both defensive holds and offensive pushes. Counters revolve around burst damage and interruption. High-mobility duelists can collapse before Cloak sets up, and ranged pressure can deny Dagger’s consistent output. Heroes with reliable stuns or reveals can break their synergy. When allowed to operate freely, Cloak & Dagger turn fights into disarray, dictating battlefield tempo with coordinated shadow and light.
