Best tips and tricks for Jeff the Land Shark in Marvel Rivals

Since you aren’t a really durable character, you might want to keep your distance from the fight, and keep your allies healed with your Joyful Splash. Jeff’s healing water beam has surprisingly long range, which means you don’t need to necessarily put yourself in harm’s way to bolster your allies.

Even your Healing Bubble can be used from quite far away to provide even more healing in the heat of battle, but keep a few for yourself in case you start to get focused by enemy damage dealers. If you end up getting jumped by an enemy, you’ll need to use your Hide and Seek ability to jump away from the fight towards your teammates so they can protect you.

You’ll be pleasantly surprised by how strong Jeff’s healing is in battle, but make sure you’re ready to reposition and run away at a moment’s notice, because the enemy team might focus you because of how important you are to your team’s success.

Hide and Seek is an excellent ability for escaping or sneaking up on enemies for your Ultimate, It’s Jeff!, to swallow up enemies and launch them off the map. Keep in mind that Jeff is not invulnerable while underground. He can still be damaged, so make sure to use it carefully and sparingly, lest you become completely open to attack.

Hitch a ride with one of your tankier teammates by sticking together with them so that you can keep them alive and they can keep you safe, leading to a well-earned match victory.
