We will update this article once the official details have been announced regarding the character’s ability set.
Who is Gambit in Marvel Rivals?
In the big Marvel comics universe, Gambit (also known as Remy LeBeau) is that smooth-talking thief from New Orleans who can charge objects with kinetic energy, especially playing cards, and throw them with explosive results. He’s got the charm, the trench coat, the accent, and the mutant power that lets him turn everyday objects into detonators.
In Marvel Rivals he’s stepping in as a Duelist, which means he likely focuses on aggressive play, quick bursts of damage, and keeping opponents guessing. With his card-throwing style and kinetic energy gimmick, he brings a fresh flavour to the roster, and if the leaks are anything to go by, there’s some interesting mechanics coming his way.
Marvel Rivals: Gambit Abilities and Stats
Here are the leaked ability names for Gambit, along with our best take on what they might actually do. These are not 100% confirmed, so take them with a grain of salt.
Leaked Gambit Ability Set: (Duelist Class)
- Kinetic Energy Card: Gambit charges a card with kinetic energy and throws it. Could be a primary ranged attack or a special toss that explodes on hit.
- Energy Accumulation: He builds up kinetic energy over time (or perhaps by dealing or receiving damage) and then unleashes it for a big push attack.
- Node Card Array – Projection: Sounds like Gambit places “nodes” (or cards) in the field, then projects them forward or activates them in some way, maybe setting traps or launching multiple projectiles.
- Node Card Array – Recycling: This likely works together with the previous ability: after projection, Gambit can reclaim or recycle those nodes/cards for a second effect or cooldown reset.
