Clash of Dancing Lions is a time-limited Marvel Rivals mode. It was first introduced in the Fortune & Colors 2025 event, this mode allows players to experience fun and casual play in a competitive setting. It plays as a mixture of both Rocket League and football/soccer. In the mode you are limited to playing one of 3 available characters. This includes; Black Widow, Iron Fist and Star Lord. Let’s see what you need to know about this new game mode!
How Clash of Dancing Lions Mode Works
As previously mentioned the Clash of Dancing Lions is available during the Fortune & Colors event. Once the festival ends on February 14th 2025, the mode will become unavailable. You have three weeks to enjoy this new scenario. A practice mode isn’t available, so the only way to learn how to play is to start a game.
Clash of Dancing Lions Game Mechanics
The Clash of Dancing Lions is a soccer-themed mode. The objective is to get the ball and score goals by sending the ball into the opponent’s net. You cannot defeat the opponents by dealing damage. Two teams of three players participate in a game. With four minutes per match, this is a fast-paced game. To win a game, your team must score 10 points. If no team has managed to score 10 points after four minutes, the team with the most points wins the game.
Points are scored as follows:
- One point for scoring from the sides.
- Three points for scoring from the middle.
The roster for this mode features three heroes: Star-Lord, Iron Fist, and Black Widow. Each teammate will play a different hero. No duplicate characters are allowed. You will notice that the three heroes have event-specific skins and use MVP animations. These are part of the Fortune & Colors reward list. However, this isn’t the only particularity. The heroes have modified abilities to match the soccer theme of this mode.
Hero Abilities
The heroes’ attacks and abilities work like soccer-specific actions. Instead of dealing damage, you will kick the ball, sprint, jump, and so on.
These abilities are common to all three heroes:
- Lion’s Launch. Kick the ball with great speed.
- Ferocious Throw. Charged throw that sends the ball forward. The speed and distance are based on the charge-up time.
Let’s take a look at the hero-specific actions. Each hero’s set makes it suitable for a soccer position.
Black Widow – Forward
Lion Dancer – A spinning kick that launches the opponents up, making them lose the ball.
Fleet Foot – Sprint forward.
Star-Lord – All Fielder
Rocket Propulsion – Gain a Momentum Boost and sprint forward.
Lion Leap – Fire bullets at nearby opponents, making them drop the ball.
Celestial Leap – Dodge. You are Invincible and Unstoppable while dodging.
Iron Fist – Defender
Lion Kick – Hit the opponent when sprinting forward or launching nearby opponents up, making them drop the ball.
Crane Leap – Perform three airborne jumps.
