Anchor Vanguard

Space and cover

You walk first, you eat the first cooldown, and you hold a shield, wall, or nest on the objective. If you are hunting spawn, the supports are getting dived.

Job: Create the space Strategists stand inFail: Farming elims off-angle while the backline dies

Kit: Doctor Strange, Groot, Magneto, Peni Parker, Emma Frost

Marvel Rivals Vanguard holding a point

Strengths

  • Wins Convoy by existing on the cart
  • Groot walls and Peni nests are map control, not cosmetics
  • Easier to learn than dive tanks — the job is in front of you

Weaknesses

  • No peel for the backline if you never turn around
  • Shield dumped on nothing, then the real dive comes

Starter tips

  1. 1

    Strange, Groot, or Magneto first. Walk the cart. Turn when the Strategist pings.

  2. 2

    Your cooldown is for the fight on the point, not a hallway 30 meters back.

  3. 3

    If the team locked six Duelists, you stay on Vanguard. Filling is the role.

  4. 4

    Destruction: a wall you broke can be a Hela hole. Reposition the backline.
