Magneto Spielstil und Archetyp
Debris Zoner / Magnetise Control
Magneto builds a stage full of scrap and a marked opponent, then cashes both in at once. Early rounds are investment; late rounds are collection.
This is not the MARVEL vs. Capcom Magneto. He is not a fly-in-and-blender rushdown character here — he is a screen control zoner whose gameplan is to make the stage itself hostile. The debris he throws in Magnetic Blast leaves clouds behind on stage, and Metallic Meteor rips up scenery to leave another. Up to three can be out.
The reason to care is that clouds are not decoration. Shrapnel Strike makes existing clouds rain down as a bonus attack, and Magnetic Maelstrom does more damage the more clouds are out. So a Magneto who spent the first twenty seconds building has a Super that is worth substantially more than the same Super from a Magneto who did not.
| Resource | Built by | Cashed in by |
|---|---|---|
| Debris clouds (max 3) | Magnetic Blast, Metallic Meteor, charged Command Normal | Shrapnel Strike (rains them down), Magnetic Maelstrom (more damage) |
| Magnetise | Metallic Meteor on hit, full-charge Command Normal, Magnetic Retribution | Polarity Shift (different follow-up while active) |
- Debris clouds persist, so his screen control compounds through a round
- Magnetic Maelstrom scales with cloud count — meter and setup multiply each other
- Magnetic Retribution applies Magnetise AND leaves three clouds in one Ultimate
- Free Flight plus Multi-Dash gives him mobility most zoners do not have
- Gravity Bind covers both planes — Light and Heavy catch grounded, Medium catches airborne
- Slow to come online — an early rush beats him before the clouds exist
- Two resources plus flight plus gauge is a lot to hold in your head
- Heavy Skills cost 25 gauge each, competing with the Super they improve
- Command Normal 2 cannot be cancelled into normals, so his air pressure has a dead end
- Projectile-based, so Doctor Doom, Wolverine and Hulk all have direct answers
Magneto Spielplan
A Magneto round has two halves. In the first you are building — clouds on stage, Magnetise on the opponent. In the second you are collecting, and the collection is much bigger than it would have been without the first half.
Building. Magnetic Blast hurls debris forward (Medium angles it) and leaves clouds behind on stage — so your neutral poke is also your investment. Metallic Meteor rips up stage scenery, leaves a cloud, and applies Magnetise on hit, which makes it the single most efficient button he has. A fully charged Command Normal 1 does both as well.
Magnetise. It is a mark on the opponent that changes the follow-up available on Polarity Shift, his anti-air launcher backed by debris. Keeping Magnetise applied means your anti-air converts differently — and better — so it is worth reapplying rather than treating as a one-off.
Collecting. Shrapnel Strike gathers debris, Heavy aims at the opponent, and existing clouds rain down as a bonus attack — that is your mid-round cash-out, and it is free of Skill Gauge on Light and Medium. Magnetic Maelstrom is the big one at 50 with cloud scaling. Magnetic Retribution, the Ultimate, is both: it applies Magnetise and leaves three clouds, so it refills your board while doing damage.
Movement. Free Flight and Multi-Dash let him stay above a stage he has made dangerous. Command Normal 2 hovers and attacks forward, and note that it cannot be cancelled into normals, leaving the opponent stuck longer — so it is a positioning and pressure tool rather than a combo link. Do not try to chain out of it.
Magneto wichtigste Moves

Metallic Meteor
EinzigartigRips up stage scenery magnetically. Leaves a cloud, up to three, and applies Magnetise on hit.
The most efficient button in the kit. Rips up scenery, leaves a cloud (up to three), and applies Magnetise on hit — it builds both resources at once.
- If you only press one setup move in a round, press this one.
Magnetic Blast
Skills25 Skill-Anzeige (nur Heavy)Hurls debris forward. Medium angles it, and clouds are left behind on stage.

The mid-round cash-out. Gathers debris, Heavy aims at the opponent, and existing clouds rain down as a bonus attack.
Polarity Shift
Skills25 Skill-Anzeige (nur Heavy)Anti-air launcher backed by debris, with a different follow-up while Magnetise is active.
The anti-air launcher, backed by debris, with a different follow-up while Magnetise is active — which is why keeping the mark applied matters.
Gravity Bind
Skills25 Skill-Anzeige (nur Heavy)Magnetic grab. Light and Heavy catch grounded opponents, Medium catches airborne ones.
Coverage on both planes: Light and Heavy catch grounded opponents, Medium catches airborne ones. Your answer to someone trying to jump the debris.
Command Normal 1
EinzigartigMagnetic energy attack. A full charge applies Magnetise and leaves a debris cloud.
A charged magnetic attack where a full charge applies Magnetise AND leaves a debris cloud — the other double-builder.
Free Flight
EinzigartigHold up in the air to fly freely for a short time.
Free Flight. Keeps him above the stage he has made hostile.
Magnetic Maelstrom
Super-Skills50 Skill-AnzeigePulls in debris, attacks all around him and rains it down. More clouds means more damage.
The Super that scales with your setup — pulls in debris, attacks all around him, rains it down, and hits harder the more clouds are out.
Magnetic Retribution
Ultimate-Fahigkeiten100 Skill-AnzeigeForward strike into a debris avalanche. Applies Magnetise and leaves three clouds.
The Ultimate, and a board refill: a forward strike into a debris avalanche that applies Magnetise and leaves three clouds.
Magneto Combos
Basic confirm
The universal opener into Magnetic Blast. Even your basic combo is building the board.
Double-build
Less damage than the full chain, but you leave the exchange with both resources moving. Early in a round this is the correct trade.
Anti-air with the mark on
Polarity Shift converts better with Magnetise applied, which is the practical reason to keep reapplying it.
Rain the board down
Shrapnel Strike is the gauge-free cash-out. Use it when you have clouds but not 50 Skill Gauge.
Full board Super
50 Skill Gauge, three cloudsThe whole point of the character. The same 50 gauge is worth dramatically more with three clouds on stage than with none.
Magneto Team-Synergie und Assists
A called Magneto can leave debris on stage, which is an assist whose value persists after he has gone — and Gravity Bind is a strong lockdown call that catches both grounded and airborne opponents depending on the button. He needs, in return, someone who buys him the early-round time he cannot take for himself.
Doctor DoomThe Knights of Doom pairing. Nullify Shield holds the space while Magneto builds the board behind it.
HulkDebris takes away the sideways options; armour walks straight down the middle.
WolverineMagnetise and clouds drag them toward the character who most wants them close.
BladeBlade handles the close range Magneto is bad at, and Daywalker Deflect punishes the rush that beats him.Magneto is a second or third character in MARVEL Tōkon, not a point. His payoff is cumulative, so putting him first means spending his best rounds building a board that a Member Change then takes him away from.
Magneto Matchups
Stark gegen
Captain AmericaHe outranges the shield with debris and never has to approach — Cap has to walk through the whole board.Ms. MarvelHer reach only matters if he is in it, and Free Flight plus a debris field means he is not.Peni ParkerA setup mirror Magneto wins — his clouds accumulate on their own, hers need a random roll.Magneto's losses all come from characters who either erase debris or deny build time. Against them, stop trying to build three clouds — take Metallic Meteor whenever it is safe for the double-build, use Gravity Bind Medium to punish jump-ins, and cash out with Shrapnel Strike rather than saving for a Maelstrom you may never get to use.
Magneto litters the stage with debris clouds and marks the opponent with Magnetise — the more scrap on screen, the more everything he does is worth. Magneto ist ein Debris Zoner / Magnetise Control mit einer Schwierigkeit von 4 von 5. Die prägenden Merkmale sind Debris clouds, Magnetise, Free Flight, Screen control.

Magneto How to Play - FAQ
How do debris clouds work for Magneto in MARVEL Tōkon?
Magneto leaves debris clouds on stage — up to three at once. Magnetic Blast leaves them behind as it hurls debris forward, Metallic Meteor rips up scenery to leave one, and a fully charged Command Normal leaves one as well. They matter because Shrapnel Strike makes existing clouds rain down as a bonus attack, and Magnetic Maelstrom does more damage the more clouds are out.
What does Magnetise do in MARVEL Tōkon?
Magnetise is a mark applied to the opponent by Metallic Meteor on hit, by a fully charged Command Normal, and by his Ultimate, Magnetic Retribution. While it is active, Polarity Shift — his anti-air launcher backed by debris — has a different follow-up available. Because it changes how his anti-air converts, it is worth reapplying through a round rather than treating as a one-time effect.
When should Magneto use Magnetic Maelstrom?
With three debris clouds on stage. Magnetic Maelstrom pulls in debris, attacks all around him and rains it down, and it explicitly does more damage the more clouds are out. Spending the 50 Skill Gauge on an empty stage throws away most of the move's value, so build first and cash out second.
Is Magneto a rushdown character in MARVEL Tōkon?
No. Unlike his MARVEL vs. Capcom incarnation, the MARVEL Tōkon Magneto is a screen-control zoner. His gameplan is to accumulate debris clouds and keep Magnetise applied, then cash both in with Shrapnel Strike and Magnetic Maelstrom. He does have Free Flight and Multi-Dash, but the mobility is there to stay above the board he built rather than to run a mix-up.
Who counters Magneto in MARVEL Tōkon?
Characters who erase projectiles or deny build time. Doctor Doom's Nullify Shield blanks his debris outright while Doom has Free Flight of his own. Wolverine's X-Force erases projectiles and his Berserker strings never leave a free moment. Hulk clears shots with Thunder Clap and walks through the rest with armour. Against all three, take the efficient Metallic Meteor double-build when you can and cash out early with Shrapnel Strike.
Where should Magneto go on a MARVEL Tōkon team?
Second or third, not point. His value is cumulative — the debris board and the Magnetise mark both take time to establish — so leading with him means spending his strongest stretch building something a Member Change immediately takes him away from. Doctor Doom is the natural partner, since Nullify Shield holds the space while Magneto builds behind it.
