Hela is one of the Duelist heroes in Marvel Rivals, and she is a powerful champion capable of dealing a ton of damage as long as you manage to land your hits. She is a difficult hero to play, but if you have a mastery of your aim and mechanically difficult characters do not scare you, then you might just want to pick up and try Hela.
Hela is a Duelist hero with a low Health pool. She is a powerful DPS character who relies heavily on her Normal Attack to deal damage. Hela’s normal attacks are ridiculously powerful but are very hard to aim. If you do not have good aim, then you will often find yourself not doing any damage with her. However, if you are able to land them, you will notice that you can two-shot some heroes, and even Vanguards will pose little to no threat.
When it comes to her other skills, all of them also cater to damage. Her ultimate sends her high up into the air, allowing her to shoot down projectiles that deal a ton of damage. Although Hela is vulnerable in that state, she gains a good amount of resistance to help her stay alive. Her movement skill is a decent relocation ability, with its only drawback being that enemies can clearly see where you’re going. It can be useful in lower ranks, but higher-ranked players are likely to follow and snipe you if you’re trying to get away. All in all, Hela is a very difficult hero to play, but one that will reward you if you manage to master her!
