Simply put, an interception is stealing the ball from the opposing team. While opportunities abound, strategic positioning maximizes your chances.

Strategies for Successful Interceptions

Marvel Rivals' Clash of Dancing Lions pits teams of three against each other in a goal-scoring frenzy. Preventing opponent scores is vital. Here's how to intercept:

  • Target Passing Lanes: Anticipate enemy passes. Identify the space between two opponents—their likely passing lane—and use your character's abilities to intercept the ball as they attempt a pass. Practice makes perfect; numerous opportunities arise in this fast-paced mode.

  • Capitalize on Easy Goals: When an opponent seems poised for an easy score, aggressively challenge them. This is riskier, as a missed interception directly leads to a point for your opponent, but effective for completing Spring Festival challenges.

  • Character Selection Matters: Choose a character with movement abilities you're comfortable with. Star-Lord, with his superior mobility and abilities, excels at disrupting plays and securing interceptions, even amidst the chaos. His dash allows for quick entry into enemy passing lanes, and his ranged attacks effectively dislodge the ball.

By employing these tactics, you'll significantly improve your interception rate in Clash of Dancing Lions. Good luck with your Spring Festival challenges!
