Marvel Rivals: How to Unlock the “Victory in Bloom” Mantis Achievement

Hey everyone, Elias here from rivalsector.com, your go-to source for everything Marvel Rivals. Today, I want to dive deep into a topic that has been buzzing in the community: the “Victory in Bloom” achievement. Many of you have been asking about this, thinking it’s a new event. Well, I’m here to set the record straight and give you the ultimate guide to snagging this prestigious achievement for our favorite empathic Guardian, Mantis.

Let’s get one thing clear right off the bat: “Victory in Bloom” is not a limited-time event. It’s a hero-specific achievement that requires a high level of skill and teamwork. So, if you were worried about missing out, you can breathe a sigh of relief. This challenge is here to stay, waiting for you to prove your mastery of Mantis.

What Exactly is the “Victory in Bloom” Achievement?

In a nutshell, to unlock “Victory in Bloom,” you need to, as Mantis, assist your allies in achieving a team wipe. That’s right, you need to be instrumental in taking down all six members of the enemy team without losing a single member of your own squad in that engagement. It’s a tall order, but the bragging rights and the 10 achievement points are well worth the effort.

This achievement is a true test of a support player’s ability. It’s not about getting the final blow, but about enabling your team to perform at their peak. It’s about timely heals, strategic debuffs, and turning the tide of a fight with your presence. As a Mantis main myself, I can tell you that there’s no greater feeling than watching your team decimate the opposition because of your support.

Mastering Mantis: Your Toolkit for Success

To consistently contribute to team wipes, you need to have a deep understanding of Mantis’s abilities. She’s more than just a healer, she’s a master of controlling the flow of battle. Let’s break down her kit:

• Lifebloom: This is your primary healing ability. It’s a targeted heal that can quickly bring a teammate back from the brink of death. Don’t just spam it on the lowest health ally. Prioritize your frontline tanks and aggressive duelists who are taking the most heat.
• Empathic Pulse: This is where you can really shine. This ability not only heals allies in a radius but also applies a damage-over-time effect to enemies. Use it when your team is grouped up and pushing an objective. The dual effect of healing and damaging can create a huge momentum swing.
• Sleep Dart: This is your crowd control. A well-placed sleep dart can take a high-priority target out of the fight for a crucial few seconds. Is their healer keeping their team alive? Put them to sleep. Is their top damage dealer about to unleash their ultimate? A sleep dart can shut that down.
• Ultimate: Soothing Presence: This is the game-changer. Mantis’s ultimate provides a massive burst of healing to all nearby allies and grants them damage reduction. This is your “win the team fight” button. Don’t be afraid to use it preemptively to initiate a push or to counter a big enemy ultimate.

Strategies for Achieving a Team Wipe

Now that we have a handle on Mantis’s abilities, let’s talk about the strategies you and your team can employ to secure that coveted team wipe.

Communication is Key: This might seem obvious, but it’s the most crucial element. You need to be in constant communication with your team. Call out who you’re healing, who you’re putting to sleep, and when you’re going to use your ultimate. Let your team know when you’re under attack and need peeling.

Target Prioritization: A team wipe is all about taking down the right targets in the right order. As Mantis, you have a unique perspective on the battlefield. You can see who’s taking damage, who’s out of position, and who’s carrying the enemy team. Communicate this information to your damage dealers. Generally, you’ll want to focus on taking out the enemy supports first, then their high-damage threats.

Ultimate Combinations: This is where Marvel Rivals truly shines. The synergy between hero ultimates is what creates those jaw-dropping team wipe moments. As Mantis, your ultimate can enable some devastating combos.

Pro Tips from a Fellow Support Main

Having spent countless hours mastering the support role, I’ve picked up a few tricks that can make a world of difference when you’re aiming for that “Victory in Bloom” achievement.

• Positioning is Everything: As a support, you’re a high-priority target. Stay in the backline, use cover, and always have an escape route. A dead support can’t heal.
• Know Your Role: You’re not a primary damage dealer. Your job is to keep your team alive and create opportunities for them to get kills. Don’t get tunnel vision trying to secure kills yourself.
• Patience is a Virtue: You won’t get a team wipe in every game. Don’t get discouraged if it doesn’t happen right away. Focus on playing your best, communicating with your team, and the opportunities will present themselves.
• Play with a Coordinated Team: While it’s possible to get this achievement with random players, your chances increase exponentially when you’re playing with a pre-made team that you have synergy with.

The Final Word

The “Victory in Bloom” achievement is a challenging but incredibly rewarding accomplishment in Marvel Rivals. It’s a testament to your skill as a support player and your ability to work as a cohesive unit with your team. By mastering Mantis’s kit, communicating effectively, and executing a sound strategy, you’ll be well on your way to adding this impressive achievement to your collection.I hope this guide has been helpful.
