Mastering Spider-Man's Spider-Tracer in Marvel Rivals: A Comprehensive Guide

Whether you're a seasoned Spider-Man player or tackling challenges in Marvel Rivals, understanding the Spider-Tracer mechanic is crucial for the Wall-Crawler. This guide explains what a Spider-Tracer is and how to effectively utilize it in matches.

What is a Spider-Tracer?

While Marvel Rivals doesn't explicitly detail the Spider-Tracer, it's essentially a marker left by Spider-Man after using his Web-Cluster ability (LT on console, Right Click on PC). Although the Web-Cluster itself inflicts minimal damage, the Spider-Tracer significantly enhances subsequent attacks, making it a game-changer, especially for Peter Parker mains.

Utilizing the Spider-Tracer

The Web-Cluster starts with five charges, allowing for five simultaneous Spider-Tracers. Hitting an opponent with the Web-Cluster applies the tracer, boosting your next attack. Here's how Spider-Man's moves are affected:

• Spider-Power (R2/Left Click): Deals increased damage to marked opponents.
• Get Over Here! (R1/E): Instead of pulling the enemy, Spider-Man is drawn towards the marked opponent.
• Amazing Combo (Square/X/F): Inflicts extra damage on marked enemies.

Optimal Spider-Tracer Combos

The real skill lies in combining Spider-Tracers with other moves. The Amazing Combo, dealing a substantial 110 damage with a Spider-Tracer, is highly effective. Follow up with a basic Spider-Power for maximum impact.

Using Get Over Here! with a Spider-Tracer requires strategic awareness. While it's useful for engaging enemies in your backline, it's riskier if the enemy team is providing support. However, Spider-Man's agility allows for quick escapes, minimizing risk.
