  • He can wipe her out with one big move


Magnetocomes with some great defensive abilities that make him really hard to take down. As such, Hela might have a real problem trying to beat him, like her attacks just bounce off his metal shields.

Plus, Magneto has an incredible move called Meteor M, which, when summoned, can deal massive damage to his target. If the player can hit Hela with this meteor, she will likely go down immediately or be right outside the door.

  • Heals all damage Hela can do
