All Morty Moves in MultiVersus

Grounded

• Aw Geez, Snakes! (Neutral)
  • If Morty has an active grenade out, he fires a laser projectile at the grenade, detonating it on collision. Without an active grenade, Morty fires a snake summoning projectile. The projectile splits into two snakes after a delay. On cooldown, Morty fires a laser instead. These can be combo into a whip attack.
• Unresolved Anger Issues (Side)
  • Pummels the opponent with a series of strikes from Armothy and Hammer Morty.
• Aw Geez, More Snakes! (Up)
  • Similar to Aw Geez, Snakes!, but lasers are fired upward, projectiles move horizontally, and Morty cannot combo into the whip.
• Plumbus Time! (Down)
  • Morty runs his Plumbus along the ground, hitting enemies. Holding the input keeps the Plumbus out. It can cleanse allies and weakened enemies.
• It's a Grenade, I Think (Neutral Special)
  • Throws a grenade projectile until out of ammo.
• Power of Earth! (Side Special)
  • Summons an earth pillar in front of Morty. Charging it increases how far front it appears. A grenade that strikes the pillar splits into two.
• Uh, Auto-Pilot? (Up Special)
  • Summons a spaceship that acts as a platform and moves up.
• Temporal Back-Up (Down Special)
  • Creates a save point at Morty's position. After enough time passes, Morty will return to this point, or you can press the input again to return immediately, leaving a grenade behind. If Morty's ally is about to be rung out while the save point is active, they instead warp back to the point.

Tips and Strategies for Morty in MultiVersus

Morty is a unique character due to his varied kit. Morty performs best at a mid-range, littering the ground and giving his allies grenades. The rest of his kit provides options for various situations, giving him aspects of a Mage or Support.

Use It's a Grenade, I Think, and Aw Geez, Snakes! to set up grenades and put pressure on your opponents. This lets you set them up for kills and control the battlefield. Morty's Uh, Auto-Pilot? is great for getting cheeky kills off the top or providing a platform to recover. His Temporal Back-Up is excellent for saving teammates or escaping tricky situations.
