Superman combos

Superman typically wants to approach opponents from the air with a charged forward-air or a falling neutral-air. Afterwards, he can try to follow up with a grounded side-normal combo to push his opponent off stage.

From there, Superman excels at catching their recovery with an aerial side-special and carrying them to their demise.

Superman gets a ring-out with his aerial side-special in MultiVersus.

On the flip side, Superman can call out an opponent’s aerial movement with a grounded up-normal. Then, he can start juggling with up-airs or aerial up-specials. If he can call out his opponent’s movement correctly, he could even string two up-specials into each other for an incredibly early ringout.

Superman perks

Superman's perk list in MultiVersus.

Perk Effect
Break The Ice Deal extra damage to enemies debuffed with ice.
Flaming Re-Entry The landing of your leap attack will ignite enemies and leave a firewall on the ground.
Sniper Punch Your aim punch range is extended. Damage and knockback increased for longer ranges, and decreased for closer ranges.

Superman’s recommended Offence perk is Wildcat Brawler, which adds a 5% damage buff to his grounded melee attacks.

The Defence buff Kryptonian Skin decreases the amount of damage he takes from enemy attacks by 4%.

Finally, the Utility perk Triple Jump gives him access to a third aerial jump after he hits an opponent in the air.
