Base kit

|---|---|
| Accursed Pistols | 26 damage per round at 0.2-second intervals; above 50% energy, 21 damage at 0.15-second intervals |
| Mantle of Oblivion | Blocks incoming attacks for up to one second; 10-second cooldown |
| Abyssal Veil | Six-second field; weakens enemy damage by 35% and healing by 20%; damages and blinds enemies crossing it |
| Void Walk | Up to 1.2 seconds of free flight; 15-second cooldown; 40% movement boost that decays after reappearing |
| Ruinous Pact | Builds Demonic Energy from pistol hits, blocked damage, and Void Walk; full energy starts Half-Demon State |
| Demon of the End | Full Demon ultimate with six piercing shots, bonus health for The Hood and nearby allies, and a 3,400 energy cost |
Half-Demon State replaces the pistols with faster demonic rifles, infinite ammunition, and lifesteal. Demon of the End is the separate ultimate state and reaches 1,000 health during its duration.
Team-Ups retained in the current hero record
Chaos Collision with Scarlet Witch
The base ability creates an arcane zone that damages enemies and stacks damage and healing reduction. Reactivating teleports The Hood to the zone's center. The documented state uses a 16-second cooldown, four-second duration, and placement up to 20 meters. With Scarlet Witch, the teleport releases a 60-damage shockwave that launches nearby enemies.
New Moon's Shadow with Moon Knight
The base effect turns Abyssal Veil into a 200-health Lunar Barrier. It blocks projectiles and explodes when broken, applying damage and healing reduction. With Moon Knight, barrier health rises to 300; The Hood's attacks passing through it can bounce up to three times, with a three-meter maximum bounce distance and 50% damage falloff per bounce.
These are documented ability states, not proof either composition is always strongest. Return to the current Marvel Rivals guidebook for Season 10 event and hero coverage.
