Whether you are utilizing the celestial warrior’s kit for the first time or hoping to accentuate her strengths, you will learn everything you need to know in this Guide: her abilities, how to leverage her abilities, best team comps, and how to counter her when she creates havoc on the battlefield.

Angela is a breath of fresh air. No other hero plays like Angela in Marvel Rivals. She blends mobility, healing, and crowd control in a way that can swing team fights. Understanding how to maximize her abilities is the first step to unleashing her full potential.

Who is Angela in Marvel Rivals?

Angela, the sister of Thor and the first flying tank in Marvel Rivals, is a long-lost sister of Thor. Unlike other big frontline combatants, Angela uses speed and position, topping it off with burst attack damage. Although she only has 550 - 600 HP, considering team compositions, this makes her considerably more fragile than other Vanguards. However, she does a great job compensating with mobility and burst healing.
Angela's playstyle primarily revolves around two stances:

Angela requires timing, awareness, and control. Here are the ways to optimize her potential:
1. Work on Mobility
Flying is not simply the act of dealing damage to your opponent - it's the action of creating Attack Charge. The longer you stay in the air, the heavier you hit. As a reminder, stay aware of the battlefield and keep circling (Flying) in and out among enemies to charge her abilities.
2. Target Isolated Opponents
Angela is great at targeting healers and supports that separate from the pack of their team. Use Assassin's Charge to knock a teammate off in the direction away from the other teammates to freely finish them with the axes before they have a chance to return.
3. A Blend of Aggression and Defense
Be careful when you begin flying into situations. Use Shielded Stance to soak damage and charge build while going all in. Use your best judgment between flying and staying on the ground with all the enemies around you.

4. Use Ultimate for Crowd Control

Heaven's Retribution is best used during the action when multiple enemies are bunched up together. Timing it just right could change it all, blocking off escape routes for enemies, allowing for follow-ups from your team.

5. Communicate and Coordinate

To maximize your potential, your full capability needs to be working in conjunction with your teammates. Let your team know when you're about to dive into combat or establish a zone so they can capitalize on the chaos you'll create for them through creating havoc and displacing enemies in the process. This flexibility also makes her important when adapting to new balance changes like the Marvel Rivals Season 4 Jeff Buff, where shifts in hero strength can alter team compositions and give her even stronger partners in battle.
