Marvel Rivals Team-Up Abilities: Synergies & Base Combos
Team-Up abilities activate when two documented partners share a squad. The community wiki's hero pages currently mark several classic pairings, including Ammo Overload, Metallic Chaos, Ragnarok Rebirth, Symbiote Bond, Voltaic Union and parts of Gamma Charge, as unavailable in the current season. Documented live synergies include Arcane Order, Planet X Pals, Vibrant Vitality, Symbiote Shenanigans, Deep Wrath, Fastball Special, Parker Power-Up, Bestial Hunt, Divine Armory and Stars Aligned, with published damage, healing and cooldown values.
Executive Overview: What You Can Actually Draft This Season
Quick Answer: A team-up activates when the specific heroes named on the wiki's hero pages are on the same team. Some traits on those pages carry an explicit note stating that the team-up ability is unavailable in the current season of Marvel Rivals; everything below separates the traits documented without that note from the ones documented with it, and every number quoted is copied from the matching hero page entry. Where a hero page lists no cooldown or no damage value, this guide says so instead of guessing.

How to Read the Live Entries
Two structural notes matter more than any single number.
First, activation is membership-based, not item-based. Every entry above uses the same phrasing: the team-up is activated when the named heroes are on the same team. The enhanced ability then belongs to one side of the pair (Luna Snow receives the Duality Dance tendrils, Rocket and Jeff receive the Planet X Pals ride, Wanda and Magik receive their Arcane Order upgrades), so the partner exists to unlock the tool rather than to channel it.
Second, the parameter lines are asymmetric across pairings. Some entries publish a full kit of damage, duration and cooldown values (Explosive Entanglement, Royal Blade's live counterpart, Divine Armory), while others describe the effect in words only. For Chilling Assault, the wiki does not list a cooldown for the granted icy abilities, and the Adam Warlock page's Duality Dance entry simply says Luna Snow gains an ability which makes her immortal while the Luna Snow page attaches concrete timings to it. Read the concrete timings as the working numbers and treat unlisted values as unpublished rather than nonexistent.
Pairings the Wiki Marks Unavailable This Season
Veteran players keep searching for these combinations because they defined earlier metas, which is why they are collected here instead of deleted. The wiki's Team-Ups hub page maintains a separate Removed Team-Ups roster distinct from the current-season active list, and every entry below appears on that roster; the numbers quoted alongside each are the last values documented on the matching hero pages.
| Team-Up Ability | Documented Partners | Last Documented Numbers on the Hero Pages |
|---|---|---|

Where the Wiki Disagrees With Itself
Three clusters carry conflicting notes across sibling hero pages, and an honest draft decision means knowing about them before queuing.
- Guardian Revival: the Adam Warlock and Star-Lord pages both mark it unavailable, yet the Mantis page describes her version, Nature's Soul, without the note and gives a
120 Second Cooldownwith a revival choice window during12 secondsinstead of the13 secondsdocumented on the marked-unavailable Star-Lord entry. If you draft Mantis, verify in the spawn room whether the revival prompt appears before relying on it. - Voltaic Union: the Thor and Captain America pages carry the unavailability note, but the Storm page still lists her Charged Gale enhancement without it, at
20 Second Cooldownand50 Damagewith a60 meter rangethat chains to enemies up to 5 meters away. Treat the Thor-plus-Storm line as unconfirmed this season. - Gamma Charge family: the Black Panther, Hulk and Iron Man pages document their branches without the note, while the Doctor Strange and Namor pages mark their branches unavailable. The same named team-up is therefore partially live depending on which partner you draft.
Peni Parker's page adds a fourth curiosity: her team-up section carries the heading Armor Explosion with no description, parameters or note attached, so nothing can responsibly be claimed about it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why are famous combos like Metallic Chaos and Ammo Overload missing from my spawn room?
The community wiki's hero pages flag them with a note that the team-up ability is unavailable in the current season. The pages record the previous parameters but do not explain the removal, so consider those pairings inactive until a hero page drops the note.
Does a team-up need both heroes alive to stay active?
The hero pages describe activation purely as team membership: the ability is activated when the named partners are on the same team. The wiki does not document a shared team-up cooldown that ticks down while a partner is eliminated, so plan confirmations around your actual survival.
Which live synergy has the biggest published numbers?
By raw documented values in the tables above, the live Iron Man branch of Gamma Charge (a 220 per second Unibeam during Armor Overdrive) and the Jeff-Nado combined ultimate (Damage - 160 per second) sit at the top, but the wiki publishes no win-rate or tier ranking for team-ups themselves. For overall hero strength, read the Marvel Rivals Tier List, and for six-hero rosters built around confirmed partners, read the Best Team Comps Guide.
