NetEase GamesLuna Snow is a fantastic Strategist in Marvel Rivals but you’ll need to master her abilities and ultimate to get the best out of her in battle.
If you love to dish out damage and also provide burst healing to teammates, then Luna Snow could be the perfect character for you in Marvel Rivals.
You’ll need to land your shots properly to heal, but the tradeoff is that she’s not reliant on a resource meter like Mantis. She’s also got a CC ability and movement passive that make her well-rounded enough for most situations.
Luna Snow stats in Marvel Rivals
Dexerto / NetEase- Class: Strategist
- Health: 275
- Movement: 6m per second
Luna Snow’s strongest quality is her ability to burst heal her teammates, and also deal damage to her enemies.
She’s got a decent amount of health, and good movement speed. As long as you’re careful, you’ll be able to survive on the battlefield long enough to keep your teammates alive and dish out some strong damage. All of this ultimately makes her a great Strategist in the game.
Season 1.5 meta changes
Just like her changes in Season 1, Luna Snow’s Ultimate Ability has been adjusted in the 1.5 patch, this time Netease has increased the energy cost to activate Fate of Both Worlds from the original 4,000 to 4,500. The change could adjust her place in the meta given the two blows her Ultimate has had.
Weapons
Luna Snow’s primary Light & Dark Ice fire can be used to heal allies and damage your enemies, allowing for a more versatile playstyle, depending on the situation.
It’s fast-firing and deals critical damage as long as you can constantly land your shots.

How to play Luna Snow in Marvel Rivals
You can heal pretty consistently with Luna Snow in Marvel Rivals without worrying about resources. That said, you’ll want to ensure you’re always using her Share the Stage ability to attach Idol Aura to someone else.
Tanks are great options, but if someone tends to flank a lot or is out of your line of sight in the team, they’d also benefit from it.
Essentially, whoever has the Idol Aura will also get healed when you heal another person – so that’s one less player to worry about.
Her Ice Arts ability, combined with her passive, can help you survive a 1v1 situation. You can also use this whenever your teammate is in a pinch, giving them burst healing quickly.
Regarding CC, Absolute Zero can freeze enemies, stopping them from using their abilities and ultimates. This even works for Scarlet Witch and Storm‘s ultimate with the right timing.
And lastly, remember that you can toggle your ultimate between healing and damage boosting. Try not to pop it randomly because it’s a great way to contest the point or initiate a fight.
Best team comp
Regarding the best team comps for Luna Snow, we’d recommend pairing her with:
- Jeff the Land Shark
- Namor
- Iron Fist
Jeff the Land Shark / Namor
These heroes pair well with Luna Snow thanks to her Frozen Spiritball that she can apply to both of them. It infuses ice energy into both characters that they can draw on to power up their own abilities.
This means they synergize extremely well together. Namor can use her turret defensively which can help Luna stay alive to keep healing. It also makes Jeff a lot less vulnerable when he’s typically one of the easier targets to take down.
We’ve also got dedicated guides for Jeff the Land Shark, and Namor you can check out as well.
Iron Fist
Pairing Luna with Iron Fist grants her an additional healing ability which is always a good thing. Unlike the team comp above, she’s the only one who gets the skill but as it can simultaneously damage enemies and apply a slowing effect, as well as heal allies it’s extremely useful.
Having this extra tool in your arsenal is more than enough to use these heroes together.
Dexerto / NetEaseBest Counters
If you find yourself battling a Luna Snow and just can’t beat her, use the following counters:
- Venom
- The Punisher
Venom
As Luna Snow excels at healing her teammates, Venom is an ideal character to use to disrupt her so your Duelists can close in and take her (and the rest of the enemy team out). He’s also got a lot of health, and good regenerative abilities himself.
Using your Ultimate to surprise Luna Snow by burrowing underground before attacking is a solid option. We’d still recommend having a healer move alongside you just to be safe though.
We’ve got a full guide for Venom you can check out.
The Punisher
The Punisher can dish out decent damage from quite a distance. He’s a great character to target Luna Snow from medium to long range and slowly chip away at her health while other members of your team are in the thick of the action.
If you can keep whittling down her HP and synergize well with other Duelists, that should be enough to keep her off the battlefield for a little while. This will ultimately give your team the chance to swoop in and deal more damage without worrying about the healer for a bit.
Make sure to give out The Punisher guide a read if you want to master him.
