Spider-Man struggles against heroes who can outlast his combos or stop his mobility. Here’s what heroes to play and how to counter Spider-Man:

Peni Parker: Cyber-Web Snare (Right Click) immobilizes Spider-Man, neutralizing his agility and stopping him from escaping. Spider-Sweeper (Q) deals consistent area damage, punishing Spider-Man for staying in fights too long.
Groot: Strangling Prison (Q) roots Spider-Man, preventing him from using his mobility effectively. Thornlash Wall (LShift) zones Spider-Man, forcing him to reposition.
Dr. Strange: Eye of Agamotto (Q) separates Spider-Man’s soul from his body, bypassing his mobility and dealing direct damage. Shield of the Seraphim (Right Click) blocks Spider-Man’s web-based attacks, reducing his damage output.

Scarlet Witch: Hex Surge (Right Click) deals significant damage to Spider-Man from a safe distance, punishing his dives. Reality Warp (Q) interrupts Spider-Man’s abilities, reducing his control over fights.
Punisher: Scourge Grenade (Right Click) blinds Spider-Man, making it harder for him to land his web attacks. Culling Turret (E) creates a zone of denial, forcing Spider-Man to reposition or take damage.
Star-Lord: Blaster Barrage (E) deals significant area damage, punishing Spider-Man for diving into fights. Stellar Shift (Right Click) allows Star-Lord to evade Spider-Man’s crowd control and maintain pressure.
Hawkeye: Hunter’s Sight (Q) applies consistent ranged damage, keeping Spider-Man on the defensive. Scourge Grenade (Right Click) disrupts his abilities, limiting his effectiveness in fights.

Jeff the Land Shark: It’s Jeff! (Q) displaces Spider-Man, interrupting his combos and preventing him from controlling the fight. Healing Bubble (E) sustains Jeff’s team, countering Spider-Man’s burst damage.
Loki: Doppelganger (E) creates illusions to confuse Spider-Man, wasting his attacks and abilities. Devious Exchange (F) allows Loki to avoid Spider-Man’s crowd control and reposition safely.
Mantis: Spore Slumber (LShift) sedates Spider-Man, stopping his movement and preventing him from using his abilities. Soul Resurgence (Q) provides healing over time, helping her team outlast Spider-Man’s pressure.

Get Over Here! (E): Spider-Man pulls enemies into melee range, setting up his combos. Stay spread out to avoid being caught.
Spectacular Spin (Q): Deals area damage and stuns enemies. Keep moving to avoid getting hit.
Web-Cluster (Right Click): Fires a web-based attack that slows enemies. Avoid staying in one area for too long.

Disrupt His Combos: Use stuns, knockbacks, or slows to stop Spider-Man from chaining his abilities.
Apply Sustained Pressure: Spider-Man relies on mobility and combos. Keep him under pressure to reduce his impact.
Spread Out: Avoid clustering together to minimize the effects of his area crowd control abilities.
