Who is Elsa Bloodstone, the upcoming Marvel Rivals hero?

Marvel Rivals has introduced players to all sorts of new Marvel characters, whether it’s the K-pop sensation Luna Snow or the adorable Jeff the Shark. It seems that trend is slated to continue, as there are rumors that Elsa Bloodstone will be joining the Marvel Rival roster soon.

Before she joins the hero roster, we thought we’d go through some important details you should know about the character. This includes who she is, what her powers are, which other pieces of media she has appeared in, and what her role in Marvel Rivals could potentially be.

So, if you’re interested in learning about who Elsa Bloodstone is, keep reading because we have you covered.

Who is Elsa Bloodstone in Marvel Comics?

Elsa Bloodstone comes from Marvel’s darker mystical side, and that edge feels completely earned. She first appeared in Bloodstone #1, born in Boston and raised in England, surrounded by old-world folklore, cursed artifacts, and brutal training under her immortal father, Ulysses Bloodstone. 

Ulysses trained her to be a hunter from infancy, even going to the extremes of making her fight monsters as a baby and throwing her to the sharks as a child. It wasn’t a happy home, and it left Elsa with a lot of baggage and a complicated relationship with her father.

However, it all changed for Elsa when her father finally passed away. She inherited his creepy old mansion and, more importantly, his signature Bloodstone Choker, giving her the supernatural edge she needed to survive. Now, she deals with supernatural threats and monsters using the power her dad left behind, all while dealing with the ghosts of her upbringing.

Which teams, comics, and games has Elsa Bloodstone appeared in?

Elsa's never been a traditional team player, but she's crossed paths with plenty of heavy hitters. She's been part of Nextwave, the Defenders, and most famously, the Midnight Suns. She regularly appears with characters like Blade, Moon Knight, Werewolf by Night, Morbius, Man-Thing, and Ghost Rider.

Her best comic appearances that define her character include her role in Warren Ellis's hilarious and chaotic Nextwave series, and her incredible solo Bloodstone limited series, which explores her messed-up family legacy. She made her live-action MCU debut in Werewolf by Night on Disney+.

Beyond comics and live action, Elsa Bloodstone has appeared in two other games before Marvel Rivals. Players can recruit her in Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3: The Black Order and battle with her in Marvel Contest of Champions.

Her role as a tough, practical monster hunter is exactly why she'd be a great addition to Marvel Rivals. Elsa brings grittiness and raw firepower, which would complement the spell-slingers and cosmic powerhouses perfectly.

What are Elsa Bloodstone’s abilities in Marvel Comics?

Elsa's power comes from her father’s mystical Bloodstone. It's a raw, physical boost that turns her into a supernatural tank, perfect for enduring the brutal world of monster hunting.

The Bloodstone gives her superhuman strength, durability, stamina, and agility.
She has a regenerative healing factor, capable of recovering from severe injuries quickly.
She can channel the Bloodstone's power to fire concussive energy blasts capable of repelling or disintegrating large targets.

However, what truly makes Elsa dangerous is how she pairs this power with a lifetime of brutal, practical training.

• She is a highly trained martial artist, capable of beating even Deadpool and Elektra.
• She is an expert marksman and is deadly with all kinds of weapons, especially handguns, shotguns, and melee weapons.
• She utilizes magical artifacts such as the Darkhold for research, tracking, and solving supernatural problems.

In essence, Elsa Bloodstone has the enhanced power to go toe-to-toe with monsters and the practical skills of a veteran hunter.

How will Elsa Bloodstone play in Marvel Rivals?

Looking at her full power set from the comics, her Marvel Rivals kit has a solid foundation to build on. The official key art for 2026 shows her with a rune-carved rifle and heart-shaped Bloodstones, which is our biggest clue. She will most likely be a Duelist, though she absolutely has the potential to be a great Strategist as well.

Her core gameplay will likely center on that precise rifle for her primary fire. Supporting this, her abilities could let her apply debuffs to damaged enemies and control space with a concussive blast. For her Ultimate, she might use her Bloodstone for a team-focused Ultimate.

In the roster, she could occupy a hybrid ranged utility niche, with Hawkeye's precision and Black Widow's tactical debuffing, with a possible hint of Moon Knight's ability to control the battlefield. In short, think of her as a damage-dealing hunter who brings serious team-wide tactics to every fight.
