How to counter Hela with Doctor Strange in Marvel Rivals
Hela is one of the strongest Duelists in Marvel Rivals with her insanely high-damage hitscan primary attacks and almost impossible-to-dodge ultimate. She is extremely oppressive as a damage dealer and difficult to counter, especially if she is hitting her shots.
That said, countering her is important if you want to win matches. We will now delve into a particular “hack” showcased by u/bwarb1234burb, which directly involves countering her ultimate using a special mechanic.
As is the case with many unique combinations in the game, Doctor Strange’s portal again gets the spotlight. Before carrying out this counter, it is important to know how Hela’s ultimate works.
Upon using her ultimate, she soars to the sky and rains down fire from above. After her ultimate timer runs down or her health bar is taken down, Hela falls on the ground at the exact spot where she primarily cast her ultimate. We will use this drop-down mechanic to our advantage.
As soon as Hela casts her ultimate, start positioning your portals as Doctor Strange. Place one portal just below her ultimate form and the other outside the map. This ensures that when her ultimate is over, she falls straight through the portal and outside the map to her death.
This method involves countering the Goddess of Death with absolutely no counterplay. Since Hela has no control over her character while dropping down, she cannot escape her eventual death if the portals are placed correctly.
