All Luna Snow Abilities in Marvel Rivals

marvel-rivals-hero-guides-abilities-luna-snow-game-rant

Luna Snow is a two-star difficulty character in Marvel Rivals who has a good range of abilities you can use to ensure that your team can keep going in difficult situations. Her abilities are not particularly difficult compared to some of the other heroes on the roster, but the challenge of mastering her comes with keeping track of who has your Share the Stage aura and using her Smooth Skate passive to get away from enemy flankers.

Her Ultimate Ability is incredibly strong, granting teammates large amounts of healing or a significant damage boost, which can be the difference between winning and losing fights. Luna can toggle freely between these 'tracks' throughout the duration of her Ultimate, giving lots of potential to clutch or turn a team fight in your favor.

Here are all of her abilities and what they do:

Ability	Type	Description
Light & Dark Ice	Normal Attack	Fire shots that damage enemies or heal allies.
Smooth Skate	Passive	Start ice skating, which allows Luna to move quickly and jump higher.
Cryo Heart	Passive	Start self-healing when using Ice Arts or Absolute Zero.
Ice Arts	Ability	Fire larger ice shards that heal allies and damage enemies.
Share the Stage	Ability	Attach an aura to an ally, which allows them to heal while you heal other allies.
Absolute Zero	Ability	Throw a larger clump of ice that heals allies and damages enemies.
Fate of Both Worlds	Ultimate Ability	Start dancing and release a large aura that either heals or damage boosts teammates.
Icy Disco	Team-Up Ability	Infuse ice energy into Jeff the Land Shark, which he can use at will.

Tips and Tricks for Playing Luna Snow in Marvel Rivals

Luna Snow is one of the strongest Strategists in Marvel Rivals, providing the ability to heal her teammates quickly and deal some devastating damage to enemy heroes. She can be a bit challenging to master, though, because you need a bit of precise aim to get full value from her abilities. This can get particularly frustrating if you're constantly dealing with flankers like Spider-Man trying to take you down, but thankfully, her Smooth Skate can help you make a quick getaway if you need to.

Prioritize attaching Share the Stage to allied flankers, flyers, high-mobility heroes, and those who tend to play more out of sight than others. Every time you heal a different ally, the ally that has Share the Stage attached will also receive healing. Essentially, this is one of the best ways to heal those pesky, highly-mobile targets like Spider-Man, Black Panther, and Venom, for example.
Save your freeze (Absolute Zero) for key cooldowns and ultimate abilities. Luna Snow's freeze is one of the only hard CC abilities in the game, with the potential to stun heroes out of key abilities, or even send flyers plummeting to an environmental death. Instead of trying to use it on cooldown to freeze any target in sight, wait for key situations or ultimates can completely save yourself and your team.
Alternatively, your freeze is also your anti-dive survival card. Luna Snow is often a target of dive heroes such as Venom, Hulk, Captain America, Spider-Man, Black Panther, Iron Fist, and Magik. By getting good at hitting your freezes, you will be able to survive the dive more often than not, as you can then run away using her enhances skate movement speed, or by following up with a headshot on squishy targets to kill.
Toggle Healing Feedback on in Luna Snow's hero settings. Luna Snow is a hitscan healer, meaning you need to be able to consistently aim and hit your shots to both heal your allies and damage enemies. While there is a noise that plays when you hit a heal, toggling healing feedback will provide additional visual cues to help you tell who and when you are successfully hitting your heals.
Luna Snow is immune to a lot of various CC when in her Ultimate, so you can use this to your advantage. Examples include Peni web, Spider-Man web, Luna Snow freeze, Mantis Sleep, Jeff Ultimate, and more.
