Introduction
Are you still using the default crosshair in Marvel Rivals? If so, you might be holding yourself back. The default crosshair is fine for beginners, but if you want to improve your accuracy, win more matches, and dominate your opponents, it’s time to level up your setup. In this guide, I’ll share the top 5 crosshairs that will elevate your gameplay, along with step-by-step instructions to import them into your game. Each crosshair is designed to complement specific playstyles and heroes, so make sure to watch or read until the end to find your perfect match.
The Blue Crosshair
The Blue Crosshair is my go-to for tracking-focused characters like Punisher. This crosshair’s design helps you maintain smooth aim while following your target, making it especially effective in close-to-mid-range battles. It’s simple yet highly effective. I’ve used similar crosshairs in other games, like Overwatch, and it’s a standout for precision tracking. If you’re playing Punisher or Starlord, this crosshair will give you the edge you need.
Key Highlights:
- Best for tracking heroes like Punisher and Starlord.
- Smooth aim for consistent damage output.
- Simple design, easy to use for all skill levels.
Recommended Heroes:
Punisher: With Punisher’s rapid-fire abilities, the Blue Crosshair helps maintain pinpoint accuracy even in chaotic fights.
Star-Lord: Its tracking capability ensures that you land those critical shots while zipping around the map.
The Phantom (Necros) Crosshair
Inspired by competitive play, this crosshair suits a variety of heroes, offering exceptional versatility.
No Middle Gap: Improves overall accuracy for both projectile and hitscan heroes.
Broad Utility: A reliable choice for heroes across the board.
Recommended Heroes:
Hela: Enables precise hits for long-range dominance.
Black Hawk: Perfect for her methodical, calculated playstyle.
The Red Cross Crosshair
The Red Cross Crosshair is a favorite for heroes who need quick, precise shots, like Winter Soldier. With its clean design and balance, it’s perfect for landing rapid hits with accuracy. Winter Soldier’s fast-paced gameplay benefits significantly from this setup, allowing for precise headshots even in high-pressure situations. Fun fact: this is one of the crosshairs Shroud himself uses in the game.

The Green Dot Crosshair
When you’re sniping enemies from afar with Black Widow, the Green Dot Crosshair becomes a game-changer. This crosshair offers pinpoint precision at long distances, making it easier to land critical hits on moving targets. Its small, focused design ensures you never lose track of your aim, even during intense battles.
Key Highlights:
- Ideal for long-range snipers like Black Widow.
- Helps land precision hits with ease.
- Simple yet highly effective for high-skill gameplay.
Recommended Heroes:
Black Widow: Excels at long-range sniping with this crosshair.
Hela: Supports her precision-heavy gameplay.
The Melee Crosshair
While I’m not a melee main, I’ve tested the Melee Crosshair with Panther, and it’s a fantastic choice for heroes that thrive in close combat. This crosshair eliminates unnecessary clutter, helping you focus entirely on your target. If you’re a melee player who enjoys characters like Panther or Magic, this is the crosshair to try.
Key Highlights:
- Designed for melee-focused heroes like Panther and Magic.
- Simplified design for close-range combat.
