Exciting new details have emerged about Marvel Rivals, the popular 6v6 hero shooter featuring Marvel Comics' iconic characters. A recent leak has revealed Blade's highly anticipated Team-Up ability with Moon Knight and Cloak & Dagger, offering players a glimpse into the vampire hunter's unique gameplay mechanics.

The game recently launched its third season, titled The Abyss Awakens, introducing Phoenix as a new playable character. This season's storyline focuses on thwarting Knull's attempt to conquer the world. While Phoenix takes center stage currently, Blade is expected to play a crucial role in battling the King of Symbiotes when he officially joins the roster in early August.

While Marvel Rivals hasn't officially revealed Blade's complete ability set, leaks suggest he may possess a game-changing anti-heal skill. A video shared by reliable leaker RivalsInfo on Twitter showcased Blade's Team-Up ability called Lunar Force with Moon Knight and Cloak & Dagger. The 28-second clip reveals this ability creates a protective force field around Blade, rendering him invisible and potentially providing temporary defense against attacks.

Rumors indicate Blade will be classified as a Duelist, featuring versatile primary attacks that alternate between sword strikes and shotgun blasts. His Shift Ability, reportedly named Step and Chop, may reduce enemy healing and movement speed depending on his equipped weapon. This anti-healing mechanic draws comparisons to Ana's abilities in Overwatch and would be a first for Marvel Rivals.

When combined with his rumored E ability, Blood Liberation - which allegedly allows self-healing while dealing damage - the Lunar Force Team-Up could create powerful offensive opportunities. The protective force field would enable Blade to aggressively chip away at enemies' health while maintaining his own survivability.

According to the Marvel Rivals Season 3 roadmap, Blade is scheduled for release in Season 3.5 on August 8. Players eager to experience the vampire hunter's unique playstyle have less than a month to wait. Those anticipating his anti-healing capabilities may want to start considering team composition adjustments to counter this potentially game-changing mechanic.
