How Moon Knight should create ranked value
Punish stacked teams with area pressure, then rotate before they walk directly onto you.
Editorial note: this section is Pocket Rivals advice for everyday ranked lobbies. Use the official source panel for canonical ability text, then use this ranked read to decide what to practice next.
First job
Play behind a Vanguard who creates the first distraction instead of opening alone.
Practice next
- 1Take an off-angle before using burst cooldowns.
- 2Keep mobility or a defensive tool for the exit.
- 3Shoot the target your tank or other Duelist is already pressuring.
Avoid
Do not open every fight by burning mobility forward. If the burst fails, you need an exit.
