Adam Warlock: Who is Adam Warlock in Marvel Rivals?

Adam Warlock is a strategist hero in Marvel Rivals ^[1]. He was available during the game’s closed beta and quickly stood out as one of the strongest supports in the game. This version of Adam Warlock follows his classic comic portrayal, calm, powerful, and closely connected to the Soul Stone.

In Marvel Rivals lore, Adam Warlock plays a vital role in guiding his allies with both healing and revival. His healing abilities are strong on their own, but his power to bring back fallen teammates gives him unmatched value in team play. While he lacks strong defensive tools against close-range threats, players who keep him in safe positions will find his support abilities hard to beat.
