Sprays in Marvel Rivals are simple cosmetic items that let you leave your mark on the battlefield. They work just like graffiti tags – you can place them on walls and surfaces during matches to show off achievements or just add some personality to the game.

While they don’t affect gameplay, they’re a fun way to customize your experience and display the rewards you’ve earned. Let’s go through everything about using sprays and how to collect them in Marvel Rivals.

How to Use Sprays in Marvel Rivals?

Using sprays in Marvel Rivals is straightforward once you know the controls. Here’s how to get started:

For PC Players:

  • Aim at your desired surface
  • Hold the D-Pad Left button to open the spray wheel
  • Use the right thumbstick to choose your spray
  • Release D-Pad Left to apply it

Before you can use sprays in matches, you’ll need to equip them first:

  1. Go to the Heroes tab in the main menu
  2. Select the hero you want to customize
  3. Navigate to the Cosmetics tab
  4. Choose the Sprays sub-tab
  5. Select your desired spray and click “Equip”
  6. Place it on an empty slot in the wheel menu

How to Get Sprays in Marvel Rivals?

There are several ways to collect sprays in the game:

  • Hero Achievements: Each hero has a unique spray that you can earn through reaching a certain proficiency. Once you reach “Knight” Proficiency with any hero you will get a spray related to that character.
  • Battle Pass: The current season, Galacta’s Quest, has eight sprays you can unlock as you level up. You’ll get your first spray (1872: Bounty Hunter) at level 3, and the final one (Herald of Thunder).
  • Default and Competitive Rewards: Everyone starts with the basic Rivals spray. You can also earn special sprays by climbing the competitive ladder.
  • Daily Missions: Complete daily missions to earn currency for buying spray bundles in the store. These missions are straightforward – things like winning matches or upvoting other players. You can refresh your daily missions three times if you don’t like the current ones. There are also monthly challenges that give more rewards but take longer to finish.
  • Twitch Drops: You can also get a few sprays by spending time watching Marvel Rivals stream on Twitch.

Remember that you need to equip sprays separately for each hero since there’s no shared loadout system. Take a minute to set up your favorites before jumping into matches.

The game currently features over 50 different sprays, giving you plenty of options to express yourself during matches. Whether you’re showing off your main hero’s achievements or celebrating a seasonal event, sprays add an extra layer of fun to the gameplay experience.
