Squirrel Girl’s playstyle shares similarities with Overwatch’s Junkrat. If you’re familiar with spamming choke points using Junkrat’s primary fire, you’ll find a similar approach works effectively with Squirrel Girl in Marvel Rivals.

Her acorns deal significant explosive damage, especially when enemies are clustered together or confined to tight spaces. This makes her an excellent choice for breaking through groups or controlling small rooms.

Unlike precision snipers, Squirrel Girl’s weapon doesn’t require pinpoint accuracy. Her projectiles demand you anticipate enemy movements and aim accordingly, making her attacks more about strategy than precision.

Before engaging in a team fight, use Tail Bounce to secure a strategic position on the map. Ideally, take the high ground at a distance where you can maintain effective damage output while staying within range of your team for support.

If an enemy closes in on you, Mammal Bond is your go-to escape or counter. Depending on the situation, use it to gain an extra jump for evasion or throw a massive acorn to stun your pursuer briefly. Squirrel Girl’s straightforward mechanics revolve around smart positioning and quick decision-making.

Her ultimate ability, Unbeatable Squirrel Tsunami, shines in tight spaces. Releasing the horde of squirrels in confined areas increases their impact as they bounce off walls and structures, maximizing damage and disrupting multiple enemies.
