Moon Knight |MR

As the avatar of the Egyptian God of Vengeance, Marc Spector's body has been enhanced by Khonshu himself. Bathed in a luminous aura that pierces the darkness, Moon Knight glides through the night, ready to sear his enemies with his master's sacred Ankhs. Official description Moon Knight is a Duelist hero in Marvel Rivals, and is the 27th hero introduced to the game's roster. He has a team-up ability that works in conjunction with Blade, for which he is the anchor. "I tear through the cloudless night, just like the moon." Real Name Marc Spector Aliases Fist of Khonshu Mister Knight Steven Grant Jake Lockley Biographical Information Birthplace Chicago, Illinois Gender Male Eye color Blue (as Moon Knight) Relatives Elias Spector (father) Randall Spector (younger brother) Khonshu (idol) Powers/Skills Superhuman strength and agility Enhanced spiritual and mystical abilities via blessing of the god Khonshu Equipped with conventional and mystical weaponry Expert detective and martial artist OVERVIEW STRENGTHS A long-ranged, area-of-effect specialist with high mobility who excels at dealing conditional damage to multiple enemies grouped together. Has access to a double jump. Can glide upon reaching a certain height. Has access to a grappling hook, which pulls Moon Knight towards the location. If the player aims it directly downwards while on the ground, Moon Knight will be launched upwards instead. His primary fire, Crescent Dart, is the core of his gameplay, being unique as it can bounce between enemies close to each other, up to three times. Crescent Dart will also bounce between the doppelganger illusions spawned by Loki. It can also bounce between his Ancient Ankh. His secondary fire, Moon Blade, launches a projectile in a straight line that deals higher damage than his Crescent Dart, but is limited by a cooldown. Much like Crescent Dart, it can also ricochet between enemies and Ancient Ankhs. Moon Blade can be fired immediately after using primary fire. It can be used to cancel primary fire's recovery frames. Ancient Ankh is a tool that further enables Moon Knight's kit and makes his projectile ricocheting even stronger. Both his Crescent Dart and Moon Blade will ricochet from it to any enemy within the Ankh's spell field range. This gives his ricochets an exceptional area-of-effect and allows the player to strategically deal quick burst damage to isolated enemies. When thrown, the Ankh briefly pulls enemies towards it while dealing a small amount of damage. The Ankh can be attached to any surface, and will remain there indefinitely until destroyed. Ankhs persist even if the surfaces they are placed on are destroyed. A maximum of two Ankhs may be active at any time. His melee attack, Triple Eclipse, is a three-hit combo with his truncheons. The third strike briefly knocks enemies up. It may be used to provide space between an attacker when Moon Knight is attacked in close range. His Ultimate, Hand of Khonshu, creates a large radial portal in the location, creating a spell field that deals high multi-hit damage. It is most effective when used in choke points and areas where enemies are grouped together. WEAKNESSES Relies heavily on grouped enemy positioning to achieve the most damage. Relatively poor single target damage compared to other Duelists unless an Ankh is used. His Crescent Dart and Moon Blade have a damage falloff of -20% per bounce. Not as useful in larger maps where the enemy team is less likely to stay close to each other. His effectiveness falls significantly when Ancient Ankh is on cooldown. Hand of Khonshu is relatively easy to avoid unless the enemies are under some crowd control effect. Personality

Moon Knight

Marc Spector, the former mercenary turned avatar of a god, is the man behind the Moon Knight persona, is complicated and diverse, formed by trauma, identity conflicts, and a strong desire for vengeance and justice. His personality is characterized by an ongoing internal conflict, particularly with his dissociative identity disorder (DID), which gives him numerous personas, each contending for control over his actions. His DID was developed to cope with a difficult and abusive childhood. Neurotic and aggressive, Marc is fundamentally a man driven by guilt and a desire to atone for his previous violent actions. As a mercenary, he did things that haunt him, and his encounter and resurrection by the Egyptian god Khonshu thrusts him into a new position, but one that never totally releases him from his inner conflict. His psychological experiences are complex, intertwining elements of trauma, DID, guilt, hallucinations, flashbacks caused by his PTSD and a constant battle between his human self and the influence of the supernatural (Khonshu) that shape his life. This variation of Marc is eager about inflicting Khonsu's verdict as Moon Knight, as opposed to his equivalents in other versions who question their patron god's decisions. However, he is well aware that Khonshu is a handful and extremely overpowering, since he notes how the god is continuously listening and poking him. Moon Knight and Khonshu have a much more cordial connection here, yet they regularly insult, mock, or annoy each other, while their animosity is a type of affection rather than actual hatred. He also has his faith on Khonshu whenever he is on the battlefield, knowing the deity has his back in times of trouble. His Moon Knight avatar embodies retribution and, in many ways, represents his quest for redemption. This sense of purpose frequently clashes with his other personas, particularly Steven Grant, the mild-mannered, socially awkward socialite Marc adopts to cope with the darker aspects of his existence with his compassionate and intelligent traits. And Jake Lockley, Marc's alternate alias, is more street-savvy, hardboiled and violent taxi driver, embodying the more primitive part of his nature. The presence of these personas: Steven, Marc, and Jake, creates a shattered mentality, with each contributing their own skills and faults, transforming Moon Knight into a character who is equal parts as a psychological individual and a battling vigilante as the avatar of the god of vengeance. Now as a vigilante, he is often portrayed as a ruthless and uncompromising figure who will not hesitate to use drastic means to fight criminals to keep the innocent safe who would prey on them in the dark. His sense of justice is not constrained by the same laws or norms that govern other superheroes such as Spider-Man or Captain America leading to being infamous among heroes for being completely unhinged. He does not shy away from violence, and his methods are frequently more severe, verging on cruel at times which leads to the point that sometimes his unpredictable. He likes to be seen, hence why he is wearing the color white, to present himself to his enemies which he takes hits on purpose, fighting through pain with reckless disregard. Despite his tortured nature, there are times that he can be quite humorous as constantly cracking jokes and delivering ridiculous one-liners while in a serious and dramatic tone. Furthermore, his relationships with other Marvel characters, are frequently strained due to his unpredictable nature, but he has also demonstrated an intense dedication to others when the situation requires it. His harsh techniques and moral uncertainty sometimes define his role as an antihero, and his connection to the Egyptian god Khonshu gives a cosmic dimension to his confrontations. Moon Knight is a figure who combines elements of street heroism with otherworldly mythos, resulting in a unique blend of crime-fighting and psychological depth. Finally, Moon Knight stands out as one of most psychologically complex and morally problematic characters, combining with a raw investigation of trauma and mental health. He is a battered soul, dealing with identity, guilt, and the weight of his acts, but he still strives to do what he believes is right. TRIVIA Moon Knight's first appearance was in "Werewolf by Night" (1972) #32 in August 1975. Moon Knight's early design before release features gold accents in his costume, which could still be seen on the Moon Knight spray until Season 4, when it was updated to reflect his in-game design. Some of these gold accents do reappear on the Golden Moonlight costume, though it also introduces new gold accents of its own. Quotes from Moon Knight, as well as from other heroes, seem to refer to unused functions of his Ancient Ankh ability. Moon Knight, Khonshu, and Thor have quotes that imply the Ancient Ankhs were intended to siphon power from Moon Knight's enemies. Magik and Spider-Man have quotes that imply the Ancient Ankhs were intended to hover, and possibly to even become more dangerous while hovering. Moon Knight's line about Dracula owing him money in the The Dusk of the New Moon Lore entry, as well as his quotes on the Empire of Eternal Night: Central Park map, are in reference to a popular meme that originated in 2018. Khonshu can be heard through voice lines such as gaining healing or respawning. Moon Knight is currently the only masked playable character who has never been seen unmasked in Marvel Rivals.
