Start an agency

Before you get to fighting anyone in this battle royale, make sure you start a hero agency. You’ll find it if you press the menu tab on the bottom right. It’s strangely well hidden.

It’s a clan system that lets you boost your experience points and gold with your friends. As you level up certain parts of the agency with your agency points, you’ll gain even more experience and gold through a multiplier. It can really add up.

Agency members can also the License Experience Boost, which increases your EXP rate by a massive 100%. The more friends you add to the agency, the better it will be. It’s unfortunate then that the game’s not crossplay.

One of the most important My Hero Ultra Rumble tips: Have a varied party

When you choose your favorite characters instead of thinking strategically, you might struggle in My Hero Ultra Rumble. Instead, look into what character types you’re picking. You’ll want to make sure you have a Support-type like Ibara or Cementoss. They can revive or protect party members quickly as you’re out in the field. The game gets very intense, so it’s good to have someone supporting the team with healing and other defensive abilities.

🐠The Rapid class is also helpful. Whenever someone gets knocked out, heroes like Uraraka and Iida can pick up their toke💫n and then make an escape. They can then revive you.

Lastly, the Strike class has a fantastic suite of ranged attacks, while Assault gets more up close and personal. They’re both excellent offensive types. If you have a mix of the Support, Rapid, and either offensive classes, you’re more likely to succeed. There are also technique-class types, but they’re more for specific strategies. For example, Toga can copy someone’s appearance and take their quirk.

Helping civilians is a useful My Hero Ultra Rumble tip

Help the civilians

Saving the civilians is one of the best My Hero Ultra Rumble tips to follow. Bringing them back up to their feet gives you revive tokens. If you gain three, you’ll be able to revive a fellow party member back to the game. Unfortunately, they’re not easily spotted on the mini-map but you can find them regularly in the Collapse and Landslide Zones. It’s best to go to these areas first rather than later, so you’re prepared for the battle ahead.

Save your Plus Ultra

As you play a match, a meter is building on the bottom. This is your Plus Ultra meter. If it goes full, you can activate it for better strength and speed. Don’t use it hastily, however. Save it for dire circumstances. For example, if there’s a squad of three that’s taken out your two friends and you’re by yourself, use your Plus Ultra. You’re much more likely to take them all out with your Plus Ultra transformation rather than spending it earlier in the match.

Remember, you can crouch

If you’re trying to hide from a foe, crouching is a fantastic option. It hides your footsteps and lets you crawl away from fights. This would be especially useful towards the ending moments of the game as the circle gets smaller and smaller.

You can try before you buy

One of the coolest My Hero Ultra Rumble tips I can give you is that you can try each hero before unlocking them. Every😼 day, you can try them out three times. Select them from the character menu, and you can try them out in a game.

If you don’t want to waste your trial by getting overwhelmed with the new moveset and losing quickly, get matched up for a game against CPUs instead of players.
