MultiVersus have five classes – tank, mage, bruiser, support and assassin. We’ll be focusing on support underneath.

Tips on how to play support in MultiVersus
Teamwork makes the dream work!
One of the main advantages and honestly the main focal point of a support is that they provide several buffs to you and your teammate.
Although supports can fight, they don’t input as much damage for obvious reasons. Support players are there to assist allies.
Support characters also have huge carry potential, they’re able to heal themselves and allies with more buffs.
They are great characters to allow allies to overextend themselves whilst knowing they have the means to do so.
Currently there are three support fighters in MultiVersus, these are:
- Velma
- Reindog
- Steven Universe
As you get more comfortable with them, you’ll learn that it’s easy to be knocked out too.
Supports are vulnerable and will often see themselves in the back line, trying their hardest to avoid action.
This comes with disadvantages as you’ll also be targeted!
Offer Best Help to Allies
The best ability all supports have is the ability to heal their allies and offer further armour.
This synergies very well with bruisers and tanks who inflict A LOT of damage in the frontline during fights.
It further increases their survivability and gives them more ample power to stay in the pocket and exchange against enemies.
With support characters such as Steven Universe can block projectiles which is great to deny enemy map control.
It’s a big counter to characters such as Bugs Bunny who’s kit is around throwing projectiles across the map to get more map control, Tom & Jerry included.
An ability of Steven such as ‘Watermelon Steve, Go!’ plants a watermelon that heals allies over time.
Once an ally is healed, the watermelon planed explodes into a fighter that assists in dealing damage.
Using the best perks
Whilst choosing the right character is one tick boxed off, having the right perks are equally as important.
