Spider-Tracer in Marvel Rivals: Usage Guide

Whether you're diving into the world of *Marvel Rivals* as Spider-Man or tackling a specific challenge, mastering the Wall-Crawler's mechanics is crucial. One such essential tool is the Spider-Tracer. Here's a detailed look at what a Spider-Tracer is and how to effectively use it in your matches.

What Is a Spider-Tracer in Marvel Rivals?

The concept of a "Spider-Tracer" is frequently mentioned in *Marvel Rivals*, yet the game's explanation can be somewhat vague. Essentially, a Spider-Tracer is a marker left by Spider-Man after executing his Web-Cluster move (activated by LT on consoles or Right Click on PC). Although the Web-Cluster itself doesn't deal significant damage, mastering this move is vital for Spider-Man mains. The Spider-Tracer can be the deciding factor in winning or losing a solo battle.

How To Use a Spider-Tracer in Marvel Rivals

Understanding the Spider-Tracer is just the beginning. To maximize its potential, you need to know how to use it effectively. The Web-Cluster comes equipped with a five-shot load, allowing you to deploy up to five Spider-Tracers simultaneously. To apply a Spider-Tracer, simply hit your opponent with the Web-Cluster, inflicting minor damage in the process. However, the real impact comes with your subsequent actions.

When an enemy is marked with a Spider-Tracer, your next attack is significantly enhanced, and in some instances, the move's functionality changes. Here’s how Spider-Man’s moves are affected by a Spider-Tracer:

• Spider-Power (R2 on console, Left Click on PC): Swing your fists forward to strike, dealing extra damage to enemies marked with a Spider-Tracer.
• Get Over Here! (R1 on console, E on PC): Shoot webbing to reel in the hit enemy. If the enemy has a Spider-Tracer, Spider-Man will be pulled to them instead.
• Amazing Combo (Square/X on console, F on PC): Launch an enemy upward, dealing extra damage to those marked with a Spider-Tracer.

Best Spider-Tracer Combos in Marvel Rivals

Landing the Spider-Tracer is straightforward, but the real challenge lies in choosing the best follow-up moves. For maximum impact, consider using the Amazing Combo, which delivers a whopping 110 damage when paired with a Spider-Tracer. This can catch opponents off guard, allowing you to transition to a base Spider-Power attack to finish them off.

Using Get Over Here! can be trickier since it sends you flying towards the marked enemy. This can be advantageous when an enemy infiltrates your backline, but it's risky if they're backed by their team. Fortunately, Spider-Man's agility allows for quick escapes, minimizing the risk of using Get Over Here!.
