In Marvel Rivals, the Blood Hunt mode drops players into a city overrun by vampires. Your mission: stop the undead invasion. But before you can fight, you must choose your hero wisely. Only a select group of characters is available in this mode, and some are far better equipped for the challenge than others.

To survive every difficulty level and emerge victorious, knowing the best characters in Blood Hunt mode is essential. Below is a ranked list of all six heroes, from worst to best, based on their effectiveness in this high-stakes battle.

All Marvel Rivals Blood Hunt Characters Ranked

There are six heroes available in Blood Hunt mode, each with standard abilities and unique unlockable moves tailored for this mode. While every character can be viable with the right build and team composition, some are easier to master and more effective in most situations. A well-rounded team is key to overcoming tougher levels.

Note: This guide is a work in progress and will receive live updates with additional information.

6) The Punisher

The Punisher ranks as the worst overall pick in Blood Hunt mode. He excels against single targets but struggles mightily against large groups, which dominate most rounds. While he can quickly shred bosses, making him a useful ally for boss fights, his lack of crowd control makes him a risky choice. Avoid fielding more than one Punisher on a team, but he can complement higher-ranked heroes effectively.

5) Blade

Blade, once a top pick in Marvel Zombies mode, has fallen out of favor in Blood Hunt. His effectiveness hinges on a gun-focused build to deal damage from a safe distance, particularly against the tough Dracula boss. However, achieving this build takes significant time and effort, putting him at a disadvantage compared to heroes who excel immediately. Blade requires too much investment to be a top-tier pick.

4) Thor

Thor is a solid, reliable mid-tier choice. He serves as a strong anchor, dealing consistent damage and maintaining survivability, which supports the entire team. While ideally, you’d field only one Thor per team, his balanced performance makes him a dependable option for most situations.
