Iso-8

Quicksilver (Symbiote) plays first on his Symbiote Six team, opening with his Ultimate ability that attacks all enemies, making Raider an excellent Iso-8 choice for him. This setup maximizes his damage potential and allows him to apply Vulnerable to any targets he crits, setting up the battlefield for the Strikers who follow in turn order. When running a full Symbiote Six lineup, Quicksilver (Symbiote) should ideally be a Raider to get the most out of this synergy.

He also has a strong Iso-8 attack, which steals 10% of the enemy’s Health and redistributes it to himself, so Striker is another viable option, especially if you want to boost his single-target damage. As a Striker, his multi-target damage will be a bit lower compared to Raider, but his survivability will be noticeably higher. If you do choose to use Quicksilver (Symbiote) as a Striker, you’ll want another character to go before him and apply Vulnerable so he can exploit it with his Iso-8 attack, or you’ll need to make sure the enemy team isn’t blocking assists—then you can run Quicksilver (Symbiote) as a Striker and Toxin as a Skirmisher for a strong combo. Ultimately, the choice depends on your team composition and the specific matchup, but Raider is generally the top pick for maximizing his Arena impact.

T4 Priority

P – Passive ability

U – Ultimate ability

S – Special ability

B – Basic ability

Passive – When Quicksilver (Symbiote)’s Passive is fully upgraded, he brings crucial advantages to the Symbiote Six team. On every Symbiote Six ally’s turn, he passively fills the Speed Bar for himself and all Symbiote Six allies by 7%. If he has at least two Symbiote Six allies, enemies can only gain bonus Speed through positive effects, meaning they’re prevented from passively increasing their Speed in the battle.

This upgrade is extremely important, as it allows the Symbiote Six team to continuously gain Speed Bar every time any team member takes a turn. In Arena, when combined with the Battlefield Effect that Quicksilver (Symbiote) applies, this upgrade becomes even more impactful, doubling the Speed Bar gain and giving the team a huge momentum advantage (and enemies cannot prevent it). Preventing opponents from passively boosting their Speed stat is also a key factor in Symbiote Six’s ability to dominate many top teams.

Ultimate – Deal increased damage and clear Revive Once and Charged from all enemies. This is crucial when facing teams that rely on Revive and Charged mechanics, as it prevents them from bringing characters back to life or benefiting from those powerful buffs, giving your team a significant advantage in battle.

Special – Deals a bit more damage and, if he has at least two Symbiote Six allies, applies Silence and Disrupted to both the primary and secondary targets. This upgrade is especially important, as it significantly boosts Quicksilver (Symbiote)’s control over the battlefield, making it much harder for opponents to use their key abilities or maintain buffs. It’s a key enhancement for maximizing his impact in tough matchups.

Basic – Deals slightly more damage when using Basic and steals 10% Health from the primary target, redistributing it to himself (up from 5% Health). This upgrade not only increases his overall damage but also significantly improves his sustain, allowing him to heal more from each use of his Basic or Iso-8 attack.

About Character

Quicksilver (Symbiote) is a unique and dynamic character in the Marvel Universe, merging the incredible speed of Pietro Maximoff—better known as Quicksilver—with the power and adaptability of a symbiote. This version of Quicksilver is the result of his bonding with a symbiote entity, granting him not only his signature super-speed but also the additional abilities and resilience that come with symbiote physiology.

As Quicksilver (Symbiote), Pietro’s already impressive speed is taken to another level, allowing him to move and react faster than most heroes or villains can perceive. The symbiote enhances his agility and reflexes, and provides him with new offensive and defensive capabilities, such as shapeshifting and increased durability. This combination makes him a formidable force on the battlefield, able to dodge attacks, strike multiple enemies in rapid succession, and adapt his fighting style as needed.

The character also introduces interesting dynamics within the Marvel universe, as the symbiote amplifies both Quicksilver’s strengths and his inner struggles. The partnership tests Pietro’s willpower and sense of identity, as he must learn to balance the symbiote’s hunger for chaos with his own desire to protect others and do what’s right. Quicksilver (Symbiote) thus adds a fresh and exciting twist to the classic speedster archetype, making him a standout hero with both raw power and complex depth.

Quicksilver (Symbiote) is a Brawler and the cornerstone of the Symbiote Six team, especially when it comes to Arena battles. He brings crucial momentum to the team by fueling their Speed Bar and healing, while also redistributing damage taken among allies. This unique ability offers subtle protection, making it much harder for opponents to focus down a single Symbiote Six member.

One of Quicksilver (Symbiote)’s defining features is his Battlefield Effect, Hive-Mind Haste, which he applies to the allied side in Arena on his first turn using his Ultimate. This effect prevents Symbiote Six characters from having their Speed Bar filling turned off, doubles the effectiveness of Speed Bar gain, and grants the team extra sustain through Drain. These advantages make the team both faster and harder to take down.

Quicksilver (Symbiote) also has a versatile kit: he can steal a percentage of Health from one or more enemies and redistribute it to himself or his allies, reduce enemy Speed Bar, apply Silence and Disrupted to opponents, grant Immunity to his team, reduce the duration of all positive effects on enemies (providing an answer to Safeguard), and clear Revive Once and Charged buffs from all enemies. On top of all that, he gains two Evade, both on spawn and at the start of every turn, making him difficult to hit.

A key aspect of his passive ability is that on every Symbiote Six ally’s turn, he passively fills everyone’s Speed Bar by 7% – or 14% if his Battlefield Effect is active. At the end of any turn, he heals himself and all Symbiote Six allies for 2% of his Max Health, giving the team constant Speed Bar boosts and excellent sustain. His passive also prevents enemies from gaining bonus Speed or generating Barrier, and his team’s Speed and Focus cannot be reduced by negative effects, making counters like Emma Frost ineffective against them.

All these traits make Quicksilver (Symbiote) a vital and irreplaceable member of the Symbiote Six, ensuring the team stays fast, resilient, and difficult to control in any battle.
