Strengths & limitations

WHAT TO BUILD AROUND

A useful advantage

Support effects can help allies sustain pressure while you monitor the wider fight.

WHAT TO WATCH

The trade-off

Resource use becomes inefficient when every target receives attention without a plan.

FIELD NOTES

Make your next session count.

Monitor your available orbs and share buffs before key engagements.

One focused exercise

Prioritise the ally entering danger, then reserve enough resources for a sudden change.

Read the current form and its resource conditions before entering a match.
Try the exercise with one target or one route so you can recognise what changes.
Review the engagement: could your allies see you, and did you preserve an exit?

THE PERSON BEHIND THE KIT

Story & connections

Mantis brings empathy and life-related powers to the Guardians. Her Rivals story begins with captivity at the Collector's attraction and an escape alongside Sai and Jeff, followed by a search for her teammates and other displaced travellers.

The biography above describes the game’s interpretation. Comic continuities and film portrayals can differ, and gameplay statistics do not measure a character’s fictional power.
