Marvel Rivals features members of many different iconic teams, and plenty of achievements that ask you to align yourself with certain ones to complete tasks. One such achievement is The Defenders, which focuses on Daredevil executing a specific team-up.

These types of missions are always tricky to work through since official teams aren’t listed anywhere in the game. It can also be difficult to get a qualifying member to fight alongside you, so if this task has you stumped, here’s how to complete The Defenders achievement in Marvel Rivals.

To get The Defenders achievement in Marvel Rivals, you need to land 10 KOs as Daredevil while partnering with Marvel Knights members. The toughest part of this mission is figuring out which heroes are members of this team, as it’s not highlighted anywhere in the game.

It can also be decently tricky to line up a kill with the help of specific characters, so there’s a lot to factor in with this achievement. The first step is learning which characters to look out for so you’re ready to go when another player chooses someone who counts.

All Marvel Knights Members in Marvel Rivals

There are six Marvel Knights characters featured in Marvel Rivals, including Daredevil himself. All of the characters who count as part of this team and can be used to tackle this feat are as follows.

  • Black Widow
  • Blade
  • Cloak & Dagger
  • Daredevil
  • Moon Knight
  • The Punisher

Partner with Marvel Knights Members to Land 10 KOs in Marvel Rivals

To get The Defenders achievement, you need to land a KO with the help of any of the other five Marvel Knights members while in Quick Play or Competitive. It’s still a fairly tough task to work through, even if you have some members present, since the key here is that you must take out enemies together.

Generally, Cloak & Dagger are the easiest to partner with for this achievement, as their Lightforce Dagger and Terror Cape abilities are consistent, long-lasting, and easy to follow up as Daredevil. The Punisher and Moon Knight are decently easy to knock this one out with, too, and The Punisher is an especially solid choice since he has an official Team-Up with Daredevil.

It’s generally best to just focus on fighting alongside your team and working on this feat in the background across several matches rather than spending a round working solely on getting it done. Most of the Marvel Knights members are fairly popular picks, so you’ll generally find at least one member in most matches you play, allowing you to knock this one out with ease as long as you play close to your team.

There are plenty of other tricky achievements left to tackle after this one, like Prank of Monkey King and Blueprints Supreme. If you’re looking for a way to pass the time between matches, you also might want to learn how to use the Volleyball Bash emote.
