A seasoned Marvel Rivals player recently uncovered a nifty strategy to counter Jeff the Land Shark’s Ultimate move. Since the game’s launch, it has captured the attention of millions, quickly becoming a favorite in the realm of PvP hero shooters.
With 33 heroes currently at players’ disposal, fans have already flagged several as overpowered, Jeff the Land Shark being a prime example. This cute yet formidable four-legged shark isn’t just a healer for his team; he’s a support unit with a punch. Players have been grumbling about facing Jeff, particularly due to his Ultimate move, playfully dubbed "It’s Jeff!" This move lets him burrow underground, engulfing enemies in his area and ejecting them across different map locations with their health steadily declining.
As Jeff players wreak havoc in battles, fans of Marvel Rivals have eagerly sought ways to halt the shark’s feeding frenzy. The community received help when a player known as DavidTenebris revealed that Wolverine’s "Feral Leap" skill acts as a strong counter to Jeff’s Ultimate. In a shared clip on Marvel Rivals Media’s Twitter, you can see Wolverine seize the moment to incapacitate the shark during its attack, following up with swift strikes to seal the deal.
Understanding Wolverine’s Feral Leap Against Jeff the Land Shark’s Ultimate
Jeff the Land Shark’s Ultimate, "It’s Jeff!", sees him burrowing to consume foes, continually draining their health. After five seconds, or upon player command, he spits them out. Wolverine, on the other hand, can use his Feral Leap to collide with the nearest enemy, inflicting damage tied to 1% of their max health plus an extra 0.035% for each point of his Rage. Additionally, his basic attack morphs into the more potent Berserk Claw Strike.
In discussions accompanying the video, fans took note of this dynamic, readying themselves to exploit it against Jeff’s Ultimate. A commenter pointed out that Wolverine’s Feral Leap effectively counters Jeff only when the shark is above ground, especially as he surfaces to expel foes, since Jeff becomes impervious to control while underground.
With Marvel Rivals establishing itself as a fast-paced hero shooter with a growing community, players are eagerly anticipating future updates. These will include new Marvel heroes and battlegrounds designed to enhance the gaming experience. Whether NetEase will tweak certain characters remains to be seen, but if balance adjustments are on the horizon, Jeff might be an early candidate.
