How to Counter Hulk in Marvel Rivals

Guides

Dec 11

The Hulk excels at closing the gap, stunning enemies, and soaking up massive amounts of damage, but even The Hulk is vulnerable to ranged damage, crowd control, and heroes who can kite him. Here’s what heroes to play and how to counter Hulk:

Vanguard Counters

Dr. Strange: Eye of Agamotto (Q) separates Hulk’s soul from his body, allowing Strange to deal damage directly to his soul, bypassing his high durability. Shield of the Seraphim (Right Click) blocks Hulk’s melee attacks, protecting Strange and his team.
Peni Parker: Cyber-Web Snare (Right Click) immobilizes Hulk, forcing him to stay in place and preventing him from engaging effectively. Spider-Sweeper (Q) provides consistent area damage, punishing Hulk for standing near teammates.

Duelist Counters

Black Widow: Straight Shooter (Right Click) allows Widow to snipe Hulk from a distance, exploiting his lack of mobility against ranged heroes. Electro Plasma Explosion (Q) deals wide-area damage, forcing Hulk to either reposition or take heavy hits.
Hawkeye: Scourge Grenade (Right Click) blinds Hulk, making it harder for him to land his abilities. Hunter’s Sight (Q) lets Hawkeye deal consistent damage from a safe distance.
Punisher: Culling Turret (E) creates an area of denial, forcing Hulk to engage under heavy fire. Scourge Grenade (Right Click) disrupts Hulk’s movement and attacks, reducing his effectiveness.
Hela: Soul Drainer (E) stuns Hulk, stopping his momentum and giving her team an opening to attack. Goddess of Death (Q) applies long-range pressure, keeping Hulk on the defensive.

Strategist Counters

Jeff the Land Shark: It’s Jeff! (Q) displaces Hulk, disrupting his positioning and forcing him to reset his engagement. Healing Bubble (E) sustains Jeff’s team, mitigating Hulk’s burst damage.
Loki: Doppelganger (E) creates illusions to confuse Hulk, wasting his abilities. Devious Exchange (F) lets Loki reposition, avoiding Hulk’s crowd control and setting up counterattacks.
Luna Snow: Absolute Zero (Right Click) freezes Hulk, stopping his momentum and preventing him from using his abilities. Fate of Both Worlds (Q) toggles between healing and damage boosts, neutralizing Hulk’s tanky playstyle while supporting her team.

Abilities to Watch Out For

Gamma Grenade (LShift): Knocks enemies airborne, disrupting positioning. Stay spread out to avoid multiple teammates being caught.
Incredible Leap (Space): Allows Hulk to close the distance quickly and deal area damage. Use mobility to reposition after his leap.
Radioactive Lockdown (Q): Stuns nearby enemies and deals damage. Avoid clustering to minimize its impact.

Quick Tips

Keep Your Distance: Hulk struggles against ranged heroes. Use mobility to kite him and avoid direct engagement.
Disrupt His Combos: Stuns, slows, and knockbacks are effective at stopping Hulk’s abilities and reducing his impact.
Focus on His Teammates: Hulk’s durability makes him hard to take down. Target his teammates first to reduce his team’s effectiveness.
