Loki Mains Uncover a "Lore-Accurate" Trick to Resurrect the God of Mischief

The roster of heroes and villains in Marvel Rivals is undeniably extensive, with players constantly uncovering new strategies and techniques for each character. Recently, Loki fans stumbled upon an intriguing trick that many call "lore accurate" - and for good reason. Let’s dive into what this trick is, how the community reacts to it, and what it could mean for other characters in the game.

Loki Mains Discover a Clever "Lore-Accurate" Resurrection Trick

For those who main Loki, you’re probably already familiar with his ultimate ability, which allows him to take the form of any player on the field and fully use their abilities, including ultimates. While undeniably powerful, this ability has its limitations - most notably, Loki can still die while transformed. However, it seems the God of Mischief has found a way to cheat death in true trickster fashion.

A recent Reddit post revealed that Loki can resurrect himself when paired with Hela. When teamed up with his sister, Hela gains a passive team-up ability that allows her to resurrect Loki or Thor if they die. Players discovered that Loki can exploit this by using his ultimate to shapeshift into Hela, gaining access to the resurrection ability and essentially bringing himself back to life. This clever maneuver has earned widespread approval from fans, with many calling it “lore-accurate” and fitting for the God of Mischief.

Interestingly, this trick only works because Hela’s resurrection is a passive ability. Loki does not gain team-up abilities from other heroes, making this interaction unique. If you’re playing Loki alongside Hela, using this trick gives you an extra life - a tactic that could become a favorite among players, myself included.

In terms of balance, this strategy doesn’t seem too overpowered. Successfully pulling it off requires precise timing and avoiding being taken down before activating Loki’s ultimate, which is easier said than done. As a result, while it’s strong, it remains situational and difficult to execute, making it fairly balanced in my view.

That said, whether this interaction is intentional or a bug remains unclear. Developers might patch it out in the future, so take advantage of this sneaky trick while you can. Try it out for yourself, and let us know what you think of Loki’s ingenious new strategy in Marvel Rivals!
