Invisible Woman Offensive Strategies
Like Cloak & Dagger, Invisible Woman thrives as a Strategist who can work well as an offensive hero. Thanks to her toolkit, it’s not uncommon to see her crack 10,000 overall damage during a competitive match!
Here are some offensive strategies to turn support into attack in an instant:
- Your Psionic Vortex does a lot of damage. Use it as much as possible. It will poke away at enemy health, letting your Duelists clean up and get kills. It can also slow enemies trying to escape.
- Your ability to pull enemies toward you benefits the entire team. It puts troublesome enemies in a dangerous situation, allowing your team to clean up.
- Yes, you can also push people off the map. You should do this whenever possible to get free kills.
- You should be looking to do constant damage when you’re not healing. You may not do as much damage as Duelists, but it all adds up.
- Don’t be afraid to use your invisibility to sneak behind enemy lines and pick them off before they realize what’s happening.

Invisible Woman Defensive Strategies
As a strategist, Invisible Woman has plenty of defensive abilities in her toolkit to keep your team alive.
However, you’re no help to your team if you fall in battle, so you’ll want to use every trick up your sleeve, and that includes disappearing in the blink of an eye. Here’s how to keep Invisible Woman alive when you’re under the cosh:
- Don’t save your ultimate for the “perfect moment.” Even if you can’t make your entire team invisible, it will heal them. Use this wisely.
- Make sure you’re always throwing shields on allies whenever possible to help block incoming damage.
- If you’re being dove, make sure to push back enemies as quickly as possible. Pushback is not just about pushing people off the edge!
- Also, your Psionic Vortex isn’t just for dealing damage. It can slow people, too, so use this wisely when someone is approaching you.

Invisible Woman’s Marvel Rivals Team-Up Ability is an obvious choice. After all, she is married to Mister Fantastic.
Their team-up is excellent for helping to add survivability to help you stay in the fight longer. As a strong Strategist, enemy teams will aggressively try to pick you off. This helps you live a little longer until the calvary arrives.
Invisible Woman Counters & How to Deal with Them
Such is the life of a Strategist: enemy heroes are ready and eager to dive you.
Due to some hero balancing in Season 1 of Marvel Rivals, you will face a more formidable roster of dangerous heroes trying to take you out.
Thor and Captain America can be an absolutely devastating wrecking crew against you. Of course, there’s always the traditional line-up of dive heroes like Black Panther, Venom, and Spider-Man.
While you may be able to deal with them with your toolkit, enemy teams will have several heroes dive against you together.
Skilled snipers such as Hawkeye may seem like good counters, but if you use your invisibility wisely, you can stay out of his sight. Use this to your advantage, especially before people learn how to play against her.
Best Team Comps With Invisible Woman
Thanks to the strength of your Team-Up Ability and the fact that Mister Fantastic is a great hero in general, Reed Richard is a great teammate for Sue Storm.
Luna Snow is a great Strategist to partner with, letting you combine two strong ultimate abilities together. You can also roll out Rocket alongside Invisible Woman to power up your attacks while invisible by combining your ultimate abilities
A Hela, Hawkeye, or The Punisher of your own can help dish out damage to anyone attempting to dive you; they will be your guardian angels.
Doctor Strange can use his ultimate, allowing you to set up a devastating Psionic Vortex that can dish out damage to grouped-up enemies that are temporarily stunned.
