MultiVersus<\/em><\/span> arguably started with what’s known as the Ultra Instinct Shaggy meme. Derived from YouTuber Midya’s edit<\/span> of an episode from Scooby-Doo! Legend of the Phantosaur<\/em>\u2014where a hypnotized Shaggy single handedly defeats a biker gang\u2014it was a viral hit that some felt culminated in the creation of WB’s free-to-play brawler. This is why it was a shock to learn that Velma Dinkley is actually the standout Mystery Inc. fighter in MultiVersus<\/em> and not Shaggy. <\/p>\n

Actually, I’m inclined to go a step further. Velma is one of the best characters in the game by a huge margin. Powered by her inquisitive nature and supportive skills, she offers fans a unique way of play. Velma does n’t throw hands for instance, instead relying on her words during a fight. Her bright ideas can sing rivals flying while her motivational speeches can heal allies. Essentially, Velma will watch your back and if forced to, she will knock the everlasting \u201cJinkies\u201d out of unsuspecting foes.<\/p>\n

Velma is a force to be reckoned with in the right hands. This is in spite of her lack of physical prowess. She isn’t as fast (or deadly) as Arya Stark and doesn’t offer the explosive power that Steven Universe does. That said, she still outclasses them both when it comes to being a proper teammate. That’s the thing about MultiVersus<\/em>. While it has solo and free-for-all options, the main mode of play is its 2v2 team battle format. There’s a give and take. Synergizing one’s abilities with that of a partner to overcome the opposition. Velma does that with ease. <\/p>\n

As a support character, Velma’s main role is to provide aid during a battle. This is done by buffing allies and damaging\/debuffing enemies. One of the things that makes her stand out is the level of support provided and overall strength of her various abilities. Take Velma’s neutral attack and special abilities. By rapidly tapping the attack button you can send out her Supportive Words projectsiles that seek out targeted friends and foes. If these word bubbles hit an enemy, they’ll juggle them around while doing a decent amount of damage. This effect changes if an ally is targeted; when hit, they’ll not only become hastened (able to move faster) but also spawn additional word bubbles to attack enemies and heal Velma.<\/p>\n

Velma’s neutral special move, called Motivational Speaker, is also a solid ability. This move sends out a beam of encouragement that repeatedly hits opponents, damaging them while also applying a debuff called \u201cweakened\u201d\u2014a debuff that makes them receive additional damage and knockback from attacks for a limited time. If it lands on an ally, they’ll not only be healed but send out a stronger version of the beam.<\/p>\n

What’s so great about these attacks (aside from the obvious)? Well for one, they both provide healing. They also compliment one another. The \u201cyou can do it!\u201d beam doesn’t just weaken rival players but also makes them targeted for Velma’s Supportive Words. Most of her other moves are similar in this regard. Each offering a solid bit of damage, more so when amplified by a teammate, while also providing strong buffs. The only drawback being cooldown timers that prevents Velma from spamming the better parts of her arsenal.<\/p>\n
