It's strange that people haven't tried this, this combo is actually what they show in the suggested combo section of her character but they use quick melee instead of right click
I've been comboing M1 + melee in between abilities for good results, but this is next level. I absolutely adore Magik in this game, it really feels like each match I'm getting better with her. Thanks for the video, gonna try this myself when I get the chance
Will hopefully remember to give this a go tomorrow, given I was a doomfist player in overwatch I'm gonna give magik a chance to see if they grow on me and I enjoy playing them and techs like this prolly gonna help with that, we'll seee
Thanks so much for this. I tried her for like 2 seconds and did not get it, so to know that she can do stuff like this really makes me want to get into her properly! I look forward to seeing your journey ^_^
Holy frick thank you. I'm a Magik main and I am learning and implementing this asap. I played around with Magik's TTK and optimal combos a lot in practice range but was not aware of this animation cancel-this changes the game.
I was chuffed with myself when I figured out some basic animation cancels (The sword into right click into sword, pommel into sword) and started taking combos from there. But THIS is a whole new ball game.
@@AlmiGaslighter Idk the buttons, but do the teleport move while holding the basic attack button, then do the dash, then basic attack, then the ranged slice
So the best way I'd advise in using the combo to further add onto your point: - Assume that you are basically dashing at the enemy and are trying to hit your dash - once you cast the spin you can just dash instantly with it, so once you have the idea in your head to dash i would set it up as so video sums it up nicely, the animation cancel should feel smooth, but remember not every setup needs an animation cancel! great video :D
Also you can use your secondary Melee (V) after the right click, you still get the kill in 250hp characters and leaves the E available. Its just another option to keep in mind
I never even knew she had a secondarly melee lmao. I've been missing my E a LOT on characters like Jeff. Good to know you can avoid relying on skinny ass E.
THANK YOU I saw people doing this but had no clue what they were doing. I've been a Magik main since I started playing and I was definitely struggling with lethality without this tech
A cool thing about this too is that it effectively extends the range of your spin (Eldritch Whirl) so you don't have to worry about them being within the spin radius. As long as you land the E, that extra 45 spin damage will proc on them! Haven't tested much but should also hit on any other enemies within that 6m radius of where you land your E.
I'm a Magik main too and this combo is definitely good but it uses literally all of your cooldowns, parts of it are bread and butter though like the whirl into dash and swing animation cancel with the projectile, but this combo specifically is probably something I'd only use in an assured duel bc yeah you have a portal to run away but if anyone is chasing you, they'll still be chasing you and we love the portal but it doesn't go that far lol
Another important thing to understand is that you can do the exact same combos but spawning a minion instead of doing the spin, if your shift is enough to gapclose into melee range, then using the minion will result in more dmg more quickly and often saves you from using another CD or AA to kill them. I see a lot of Magik player forget that the minion exists and it's surprisingly strong.
another combo without stepping disc would be E, M1, V, M2, M1. This works really well because the M2 resets the cooldown of M1 so everything comes out instantly
Man, that's some mad damage. I've tried Magik here and there, but just couldn't get the same burst damage I was seeing from other players. I guess this is part of what I was missing, lol. Do you know if this combo still works in her ult? And do you have advice about when to use her ult? I also appreciate how straight to the point the video is, and that it has actually helpful information. There are tons of videos that are supposedly tutorials about how to play a character, but it's just them reading the abilities and then playing a match or two.
@@jacobdavis6604 Magiks ult is actually my least favorite part of her kit. Try to use it when you know you can get a few hits in to proc your passive shield gain so you don't just blow up, because once you start going, unless a big ability hits you or the enemy team giga focuses you, you most likely won't die. The combo does not work in her ult HOWEVER you can still apply the dash to get extra range with your spin for more shields, and your e will still work the same. It's just harder to do since you attack a bit slower.
during her ult she doesn't jump during e. it's better to go for eldritch whirl - e (does huge aoe damage, your dash moves the whirl hitbox so it's all guaranteed to hit), swinging your sword once, then stepping discs to get another whirl or to back up. i wouldn't use ranged attack during the combo because it's so slow for the damage you get and whirl is way too much so you want to do it again
Hi friend! Just found this game and have been playing a lot of Magik, thinking about how to work the cancel into my usual rotation. This was super informative.
One thing I hate is how many people are new to hero shooters and think they can learn everything just by hitting the play button and diving into matches. This sort of tech you figure out in practice range.
Of note, you can still do this combo during Magik's Ultimate though it's less effective due to not being able to launch yourself into air with the enemy
The best combo I've found is actually M1, melee, right click, M1. It actually 1 shots squishies and the melee + right click from what I can tell weave perfectly between the GCD timer for M1 :)
Nice. I figured out her kill combo after like 5 min of playing her but I didn't realize you could just hold down left click after phase. I'd love to play her more but the only problem is ppl just instalock duelists so I find myself playing tank or strategist more just to have a decent team comp and chance at winning.
I love Magik so much, her burst combos are wayyy too fun. I hope they change demon though, right now it's only useful for spaming portal and running away
You can do the same combo but instead of using RMB at the end you can use the melee (which is bound to V by default I believe?) This is basically a short range butt with the sword's hilt. I'm not sure how reliable this is in practice because I've not tried to use it myself but it can potentially save the cool down on your long range, to use else where. It will do 250 damage exactly, so it has less room for error. Again the short range of the hilt bash may make it less reliable to be practical, so it'd need testing properly.
Would've been a good idea to have had some sort of "input visualization" software running while you recorded this (e.g., keyviz), that way we could've seen the inputs you're pressing more clearly while you explain yourself. Good video / tips all the same, though. :)
hey, leave a direct link to the twitch in your video descs, the twitch shoutout was very good at the end and the easier you make it for people to find your link the more people will click i say this because i did want to check it out and it wasn't there, awesome tut
I imagine you already discovered this, but just in case: another animation cancel I think you should consider is quick melee cancel. Shes one of the only characters where this is actually useful, especially because in my testing she has a quick melee thats like 1 to 1.5 meters past the usual quick melee range and most melee characters have LMB that are just faster and stronger than quick melee. Abilities animation cancel quick melee so you can make your combos extra long and more damage by adding them in. LMB+quick+RMB+LMB+quick kills 250hp targets with no healing.
Nice video, though I think showing each move step by step would help to show what you’re actually doing and make it easier for some people to understand
I found out this weird unique thing she can do. It's attack instant jab. Don't know if its sauce but considering this is an option it's much slower in comparison.
i think that its crazy that people don't know this. Like if you wanna learn a champ just spend like 30 to 45 minutes in practice range and find these combos. like this was probably the first thing i did on her after realizing you have time before you have to spin.
I’ve never played a dps in games like marvel rivals let alone a flanker like magik(that’s who I play) I was wondering if you had any more good tips to get in close and how to deal with Hawkeye
Huh, that's a really interesting way to close distance/engage because yeah, Magik has issues getting close sometimes. Her dash is unfortunately very easy to miss, and there's been multiple times where I tried teleporting in to close the distance and instant died the moment I got out. Honestly, I like how so many different small content creators are all discovering their own neat little tricks with each different character. Magik is fun because it's all about how to optimize her damage, and the rest is just positioning and being able to not get lost in the middle of a fight. Edit: Testing out on PS5 and unable to replicate. Holding down R2(Left click for PC) just means she exits the portal with Eldritch Whirl, but her distance is not increased. For instance, in the training range I can't make it to the bridge with this combo. Either I'm doing it wrong, or this is only possible on PC.
hey man i’m also on ps5 and i believe i figured it out so you portal, tap r2 the second you leave the portal then dash so portal, eldritch dash then rush maybe it’s ur timing on the rush part but for us playstation players it’s more tap tap tap instead of hold on no cool down you should be able to do it unlimitedly and not touch the ground hope this helps L1, R2 then r1

Genuinely useful and insightful. Never seen these combo possibilities.
All these squishies are cooked now that i gained this knowledge
Dang, I thought you were going to talk about weaving in melees with her left click, but this is great to know. Thanks man!
That's a really straight forward guide and really helpful ! I was wondering why I couldn't make Magik work, but everything makes sense now. Thanks !
how
I think one part of Magik that is slept on is her quick melee (V) weaving that in whenever you're using abilities can really help up the burst
Magik Iron Fist and Spiderman make this game feel like a fighting game more than a hero shooter lmaooo
Don't forget black panther who is actually stronger than any of the above

I was chuffed with myself when I figured out some basic animation cancels (The sword into right click into sword, pommel into sword) and started taking combos from there. But THIS is a whole new ball game.
this is just a better use of my combo which is mostly stepping disk into dash than spin and disk out.

I usually add a melee after every swing. even works for the combo you showed. sometimes I dont have to waste the right click
This is good but you can sub the ranged attack for a quick melee and still do enough damage to kill while still having your ranged attack for poke
This singlehandedly makes me want to play magik lol
Really want to play Magik so this is appreciated
i do this but like to add in a melee cancel after the left click swing or after the right click, it enables you to even kill 300hp heroes
