In a Nutshell
Squirrel Girl might seem quirky but don’t let her funny demeanor fool you. She’s one of the heroes with an AOE (Area of Effect) attack as a primary, capable of damaging multiple enemies and a choke point nightmare.
Season Rankings and Hero Tier ListSquirrel Girl Pros and Cons
| Pros | - Good AOE (Area of Effect) damage - Good character for holding choke points |
|---|---|
| Cons | - Ambush prone |
Area Denial
Squirrel Girl’s ability to chuck acorns inside the objective or payloads can keep enemies at bay.
Imprison Enemies
Squirrel Blockade is an excellent ability to single out vanguards, and other duelists, and can potentially be used to protect the backlines against flankers.
No escape tool
Squirrel Girl’s only role is to chuck acorns all day and keep the frontlines busy. While her ability kit allows her to imprison enemies and reach high vantage points, this leaves her with no other mobility tool to escape being the target of ambushes.

Flankers and Aggressive Frontline Characters
The best partner for Squirrel Girl are flankers or strong frontline heroes that can keep the heat away from her so that she's able to chuck her acorns from afar.
Storm
Storm can potentially be a great ally to Squirrel Girl since her Weather Control can grant a damage boost to Squirrel Girl’s primary attack. This setup however, may require team compositions to adjust by having two backline duelists.
What Is a Team-Up?How to Play Squirrel Girl
Height is Might
If you had played Overwatch before, Squirrel Girl is essentially Junk Rat with a shorter fuse timer. This means that you gain more advantage by consistently being in the air through jumping or positioning your character on higher platforms while chucking away your acorns and imprisoning enemies for quick eliminations. Don't worry so much about your aim because your acorns do AOE damage if you didn't hit a target.
As an AoE character, reaching higher placements also allows you to spot enemies more easily and make better use of your primary attack. Use Tail Bounce (Right Click) to reach elevated places and gain better positioning.
Use this Refresh Strat
A great way to use Squirrel Girl is to start with Tail Bounce (Shift) to gain higher ground, then, imprison an enemy with Squirrel Blockade (Right Click) and quickly use Mammal Bond (E) to refresh all abilities, allowing you to repeat the same sequence. This strategy keeps vanguards at bay and ensures that imprisoned enemies are always lined up for quick eliminations by your team.
Bounce Off Ultimate Ability on Choke Points
Squirrel Girl's Ultimate ability is best used in chokepoints or in alleys cluttered with objects so that your squirrel army can bounce off them and do the maximum damage possible. If possible, try to add an element of surprise by launching this ultimate at the enemy backlines for maximum damage.

Squirrel Girl Hero Lore
Doreen Green
Doreen Green is more than just a computer science student at Empire State University. She also happens to have the powers of a squirrel AND the powers of a girl! With her BFFF (Best Furry Friend Forever) Tippy-Toe by her side, Doreen eats nuts and kicks butts as the unbeatable Squirrel-Girl!
After the Timestream Entanglement, things got weird...er. With all of New York City under attack by creatures of the night, Squirrel Girl assembled an adorable army to reclaim Central Park from the clutches of Dracula. Here's hoping vampires don't like the taste of squirrel!
Hero Story
Bushwhack!| “Well, that should take care of them!” the Unbeatable Squirrel Girl said as she stood over a group of freshly-defeated attackers. “Another horde of vampires down for the count. Good work, everybody!” As Squirrel Girl praised her army of rodent companions for their efforts, the tiny creatures began to chitter with delight. They would do anything for their human friend, Doreen Green -- even risk their lives against the seemingly endless throng of nocturnal nightmares that had emerged after an ancient curse trapped New York City in a state of perpetual night. “You’ve definitely earned a trip to Mr. Hickory’s fresh roasted nut cart on the corner of 55th and -- ” Before Squirrel Girl could finish that thought, her BFFF -- Best Furry Friend Forever -- Tippy-Toe scurried past her fellow squirrels and climbed right onto Doreen’s shoulder. As Tippy began to chirp into Squirrel Girl’s ear, Doreen’s ever-present smile dropped a bit. “Wait… that can’t be right…” Squirrel Girl said. “A giant squirrel… fell out of the sky…? Here in Central Park…? Are you sure, Tippy?” Tippy-Toe leapt from Squirrel Girl’s shoulder and bolted back towards the heart of the park. Before she disappeared into the woods, she turned around and beckoned for her friend to come along. “Guess Mr. Hickory is gonna have to keep his nuts warm a little longer,” Squirrel Girl said, shrugging as she followed Tippy-Toe into the dark forest. The rest of the squirrels stayed close behind Doreen, ready to take on whatever threats might be lurking in the shadows. As soon as they reached a clearing, Squirrel Girl realized that Tippy-Toe hadn’t been exaggerating in the slightest. There, in the middle of a small impact crater, was the biggest squirrel Doreen had ever seen. Her furry friends surrounded the creature and stared in awe. But something was clearly wrong. The giant rodent was hurt. Bad. “Excuse me… ma’am…?” Squirrel Girl said cautiously. “You look like you could use a friend…” “Aye…” the enormous squirrel replied, with pain its voice. “I am so far from home… Yet the scent of this realm seems oddly familiar… Tell me, to where have I fallen, dear child…?” “You’re on Earth. New York City to be exact!” Squirrel Girl responded proudly. “Whoa. Hold on. Did you just talk?” “Indeed,” the creature said, lifting its massive head to get a better look at the curious human girl with a rodent’s tail. “I mean, I know you can talk to me,” Squirrel Girl continued. “I talk to squirrels all the time. It’s one of my superpowers. But you weren’t just chirping and chittering. You talked in English. Like a person!” “The squirrels of Midgard do not have the ability to speak?” the mysterious rodent said. “What a shame.” “I know, right?!” Squirrel Girl mused. “I’m the only one who gets to enjoy all of their stories. Guess I’m just lucky!” “I have a story to tell as well,” the oversized squirrel said, “but sadly, there is very little luck in it.” “Ooh! I wish I had some popcorn!” Squirrel Girl said as she sat cross-legged on the ground next to her new friend, eager to learn more. Her squirrel companions gathered around and listened intently. “My name is Ratatoskr,” the creature began. “I hail from the golden kingdom once known as Asgard. Though my true home is in the branches of Yggdrasil, the World Tree.” “Asgard?!” Squirrel Girl exclaimed. “Are you friends with Thor? Because I totally am!” “Aye, I have known the God of Thunder since he was just a boy,” Ratatoskr continued. “It was my sworn duty to climb the World Tree, delivering messages across the Ten Realms. It was a simple life, but one I took great pride in. I sought no glory and I posed no threat. Or so I believed.” “Here comes the part where Loki does something nasty, right?” Squirrel Girl asked excitedly, chomping down on a handful of acorns that she had found scattered on the ground nearby. “I have my qualms with the Trickster for his treatment of Yggdrasill,” Ratatoskr said, “but according to a vision I had, I do not believe it was Loki who laid me low. In fact, it was two Midgardians who sought to end my days: a mortal sorcerer in a metal mask and the lord of vampires himself.” “Yikes!” Squirrel Girl yelped. “The two must have conjured a spell to rip me from my beloved Yggdrasill…” Ratatoskr said, trailing off as she considered what had occurred. “And then you crash landed here,” Squirrel Girl finished, “right in the heart of vampire territory. I bet they were planning to send in an undead army to take you prisoner… or worse. But why? I mean, sure, squirrels are some of the toughest fighters ever, and it’s nice to see someone finally realizing that, but there are so many other threats that these jerks are up against. Aside from your obvious awesomeness, what makes you so special?” “My horn,” Ratatoskr said, motioning to the long wooden tusk protruding from her forehead. “Yeah,” Squirrel Girl said, “I was gonna ask about that. I just assumed you were some sort of magical squirrel-icorn or something.” “The horn is made from a branch of Yggdrasill itself,” Ratatoskr said. “It is imbued with the World Tree’s life-giving power. Should it pierce the vampire king’s heart, it would likely end even his eternal reign. In order to remove such a risk, they are undoubtedly seeking to remove me from play.” “Well, they’ll have to go through us first,” Squirrel Girl exclaimed, lifting her fist in the air triumphantly. Her squirrel companions all squeaked with joy… but silence quickly fell once more as the leaves around them began to rustle. Suddenly, several vampires lunged out from the woods, hissing and bearing their sharp teeth as they rushed towards Ratatoskr. “You know the drill, gang!” Squirrel Girl shouted to her tiny squirrel friends. The squirrels jumped into action scampering forward to meet their attackers. In a frenzy of teeth and claws, the vampires soon found themselves overpowered by the bushy-tailed battalion. Every time they managed to shake off one rambunctious rodent, three more took its place. “I’d bet on buckteeth over fangs any day!” Squirrel Girl cheered as her fearsome foes fled back into the darkness. But before the hairy heroes could celebrate another hard-earned victory, the next wave of vampiric villains emerged from the forest, this time nearly doubled in number. At the center of the horde stood a pale-skinned man in a pitch black suit and a blood red cape adorned with gold ornamentation. His commanding presence made it instantly clear that he was the one in charge. The vampires around him eagerly awaited his orders. “Stand aside, child,” the vampire said to Squirrel Girl, his voice as cold as ice. “This creature belongs to me.” “I don’t know who you think you are, buddy,” Squirrel Girl said defiantly, “but Ratatoskr is with us now. You don’t get to hurt her.” “I wouldn’t dream of it,” the vampire said. “I have far more important plans for that mangy beast. You, however, shall not be as fortunate. So swears Dracula!” “Dracula…?!” a bewildered Squirrel Girl muttered. “No… It can’t be…” “Oh, it is,” Dracula responded with a grin, his fangs glistening in the light of the blood moon. “And you, my dear, shall be the next to join my eternal legion.” With a wave of his hand, Dracula unleashed his vampire horde upon Squirrel Girl. She dodged and leaped as quick as she could, hoping to prevent them from sinking their sharp teeth into her flesh. “Don’t let them get to Ratatoskr!” Squirrel Girl yelled, clearly more concerned about her newly-arrived ally than about herself. Even though her rodent army vastly outnumbered the vampires, Squirrel Girl quickly realized that her forces were gravely outmatched. These were Dracula’s most elite soldiers, and Doreen knew that she and her friends were in over their heads. “Tippy! Call in reinforcements!” Squirrel girl shouted. With a loud series of squeaks, Tippy-Toe beckoned forth every animal that called Central Park home -- from rats and raccoons to frogs and felines. As they skittered across the ground towards the unsuspecting vampires, another wave of animals swooped down from the skies. “I didn’t know you could speak bird, Tippy!” Squirrel Girl exclaimed, genuinely surprised to see the large feathered flock furiously pecking at her foes. Tippy-Toe shrugged with confusion. “Those creatures are not of this realm,” Ratatoskr said. “The ravens serve Loki himself, and the crows belong to Hela. Apparently, Dracula is not the only one searching for my whereabouts.” “Hey, we’ll take all the help we can get!” Squirrel Girl said, leaping forward to join the flurry of teeth and beaks and claws and talons. Squirrel Girl’s furry friends continued to do everything in their power to distract the undead warriors from their true prey. But then, without warning, every one of Doreen’s beloved squirrels abruptly stopped in their tracks. “Uh… guys…?” Squirrel Girl said, “What’s going on?” “You are not the only one who can speak to rodents…” Dracula mused. “In the past, I have reserved this talent for bats and rats, but I suppose it works on squirrels just as well. And I, for one, shall enjoy the irony of what is about to unfold…” Tippy-Toe and her fellow squirrels turned to face Squirrel Girl, their eyes glowing a sinister red. Squirrel Girl gasped in horror as she realized that Dracula had somehow pitted her best friends against her. Although she herself was not under the vampire king’s thrall, Squirrel Girl still found herself unable to move, completely paralyzed by the shock of the moment. “No… please!” Squirrel Girl shouted as the ravenous rodents began to descend upon her. But before the tiny terrors could devour Doreen, a powerful blast erupted from the skies, knocking the squirrels back and breaking them free from Dracula’s control. “Looks like you’ve got a rodent problem, kid,” a semi-robotic voice said. “Lucky for you, I happen to be on pest control duty.” Iron Man descended from above and landed on one side of Squirrel Girl. On her other side, Moon Knight glided onto the scene. The two heroes had arrived just in the nick of time. “I’m so glad you guys are here!” Squirrel Girl gushed with glee. “We were trying to rescue this giant Asgardian squirrel when Dracula and his army attacked us. I don’t know how, but he turned my little buddies against me. For a moment there, I really thought it was all over!” “It is,” Iron Man said as he blasted back a few more vampires with his repulsors. “We’re getting you out of here. Now.” “Not without Ratatoskr,” Squirrel Girl said. “Yeah, about that…” Moon Knight replied, tossing a few crescent-shaped shuriken at the oncoming attackers. “I don’t see any giant squirrels around here. No Dracula either. And they say I’m the crazy one…” Squirrel Girl looked towards the site where Ratatoskr had landed earlier and was shocked to find that her new friend had gone missing. And Moon Knight was right about Dracula’s disappearance as well. “She was just here! I swear!” Squirrel Girl cried. “Dracula must’ve escaped with her when we weren’t looking! We have to go after them!” “Not a chance,” Iron Man said. “We’ve barely got the means to fight off a handful of regular fangers. We’re definitely not ready to face off against Dracula.” “Not yet,” Moon Knight added, as if he knew something the others did not. “But when the time comes,” Iron Man continued, “we’re going to need every ally we can find. Alive. That includes you. Now, come with me…” Iron Man lifted into the air, grabbing Squirrel Girl under the arms and taking her with him. “…and consider this your lucky day!” “Wait! No!!!” Squirrel Girl pleaded. Not only was she abandoning Ratatoskr, but her squadron of squirrels was being left behind to fend for themselves as well. Only Tippy-Toe had managed to climb aboard the Iron Man Express before it took flight. Squirrel Girl’s gaze stayed fixed on the park below until her tiny allies had faded completely from sight. With a heavy heart, she turned her attention to the blood moon hanging over her beloved city. “Trust me, kid,” Iron Man said as they flew together towards the safety of Avengers Tower, “this is for the best.” The armored Avenger seemed strangely confident about that fact. But for the first time she could remember, Squirrel Girl wasn’t feeling quite so optimistic… |
| “Can you believe it, Tippy?” Squirrel Girl asked, her voice rising to a high pitched squeal. “We got invited to Krakoa for the Hellfire Gala! It's only, like, the most important event of the year... Whatever year this is...” Just a few days ago, Doreen Green — the Unbeatable Squirrel Girl — and her trusty rodent sidekick Tippy-Toe were fighting for their lives in a New York City that had been thrust into eternal darkness and infested with vampires. So getting whisked away through some sort of magic portal to a living Mutant island 75 years in the future wasn't exactly on her Bingo card. But she wasn't complaining. After the fight against Dracula, she and her squirrel friends were in desperate need of a vacation. And there was no better place to kick back and relax than on a tropical island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean! “You like the new outfit?” Squirrel Girl asked with a smile, giving a twirl as she showed off her festive beachy look. “I know everyone else is getting all gussied up for the Gala tonight, but I thought some casual wear was more my style.” Tippy-Toe was about to chirp in agreement, but instead she let out a squeal of horror, skittering up Squirrel Girl's body to perch safely on her best friend's shoulder. “What's wrong, Tippy?” Squirrel Girl asked, looking around to find the source of the commotion. Suddenly, she saw it — a strange dog-like creature bounding down the beach toward her at top speed. But this was no normal dog. Its skin was shiny silver and its alien features made it look equal parts menacing and adorable. “No!” a voice yelled from afar. “Bad Warwolf!” Squirrel Girl looked down the beach further to see her friend Rocket Raccoon hurriedly chasing after the strange alien dog. “Sorry about that,” Rocket said as he got closer, “I was takin' Amazing Baby here for a walk and he got away. Didn't mean to scare your bushy-tailed pal.” “Tippy will be fine,” Squirrel Girl said, reaching down to pet Amazing Baby on the top of his smooth silver head. “And this little fella was just a bit overexcited, wasn't he?” “Who can blame him?” Rocket said. “With all we've been through, savin' the universe and whatnot, we finally get to reap the rewards in paradise! I think we all needed a getaway like this after that vampire nonsense in New York. It's a nice change of pace not havin' someone constantly tryin' to take a bite outta us!” “MRRRRR!” a loud voice exclaimed, right on cue. The heroes turned to see a strange creature leaping out of the ocean waves toward them, its giant jaws wide open and its sharp fangs flashing in the summer sun. As Tippy-Toe and Amazing Baby yelped and ran at full speed into the Krakoan jungle, Squirrel Girl and Rocket instinctively got into battle positions, ready to fend off the bounding beast. Fortunately, before any punches could be thrown, they realised that this wasn't some menacing Mutant monster that lurked off the Krakoan coast. It was their new friend, Jeff the Land Shark! “MRRRRRR!” Jeff squealed with joy as he landed on his tiny legs between Rocket and Squirrel Girl. “I'm happy to see you too, Jeffy,” Squirrel Girl said, “Though you gave Tippy and Rocket's pup quite the scare.” “We should probably go find 'em before they get into any more trouble,” Rocket said. “How about you take the lead, Jeff?” Squirrel Girl asked, knowing that the little shark had plenty of experience chasing after her squirrel pals. “MRR!” Jeff proudly responded, sniffing the ground as he followed Tippy-Toe's trail into the lush green vegetation just beyond the beach. Squirrel Girl and Rocket stayed close behind their amphibious ally. After chasing Jeff through the dense undergrowth for several minutes, Squirrel Girl and Rocket found themselves entering a clearing. “There you are, Tippy,” Squirrel Girl said as she caught sight of her companion. “I was worried you'd gotten lost, or eaten, or —” Squirrel Girl paused as she realised how still and silent Tippy-Toe and Amazing Baby were standing. Her gaze drifted over to the center of the clearing, where she saw a heartbreaking sight. There was her Mutant ally, Psylocke, kneeling on the ground. In her arms, she gently cradled the body of what looked to be a very old wolf. It was clear the creature was close to the end of its days. “Are... are you okay, Sai...?” Squirrel Girl asked, putting a hand on Psylocke's shoulder. “I am,” Psylocke responded. “But Logan is not...” “Logan...?” Squirrel Girl asked, confused. When she heard that name, she instantly thought of the X-Man known as Wolverine. But she soon realised that Psylocke was talking about her ancient lupine friend. “He was my best friend and most loyal companion,” Psylocke said, her gaze still fixed on the poor, old creature wrapped in her embrace. “Back in the world I came from, we hunted Oni side-by-side for many years. When the Collector ripped me from my timeline, I thought I would never see him again. But it seems Logan never gave up on finding me. I can see it in his memories. He found his ways across time and space, chasing some strange man in red who had been sent to find me. Eventually, he picked up my scent again and followed it here to Krakoa.” “By the shape he's in, it looks like it took the poor thing centuries to find ya,” Rocket said. “It did,” Psylocke confirmed. “His healing factor kept him alive all that time... but even his body has its limits, it seems...” “You mean, he's...” Squirrel Girl's voice trembled. She couldn't finish her thought before tears began to roll down her cheeks. “Hai,” Psylocke said, confirming Squirrel Girl's unspoken fear. “Now that Logan has finally found me, his mission is complete. His journey has come to an end. It is time for him to rest.” Jeff approached Psylocke and gently nuzzled her, showing his dear friend some much needed support. “A little rest is fine and dandy,” Rocket said, trying to keep composed, “but I ain't gonna sit here and watch you lose a friend again just as soon as you found him. There's gotta be somethin' we can do.” “Wait...” Squirrel Girl said, excitement returning to her voice. “I have an idea! When I'm not busy eatin' nuts and kickin' butts, I study computer science at Empire State University. And last semester, I wrote a paper on memory storage. But I'm not talking files and folders here. I'm talking about how real memories — like yours and mine — could theoretically be stored in a digital format and downloaded into a new body if something happened to us. And during my research, I found a Daily Bugle article by Ben Urich that claimed the citizens of Krakoa were already applying a similar process to make themselves all-but immortal.” “The Resurrection Protocols,” Psylocke said quietly. “Magneto has spoken of them. But they are reserved only for Mutants.” “Yeah, well, the computers at ESU are reserved only for students doing homework,” Squirrel Girl said with a shrug, “but that never stopped Tippy-Toe from playing solitaire on them.” “The game you are playing is far beyond your scope of understanding,” a voice said from behind the gathered heroes. They turned to see Emma Frost entering the clearing in a luxurious gown. Her skin dazzled like a million diamonds. “Try us,” Rocket taunted. “We may not look all sophisticated like you, lady, but when it comes to tech, there ain't no one in the galaxy who can keep up with me.” “Give us the chance, Ms. Frost,” Squirrel Girl said. “You obviously trusted us enough to invite us here tonight. Let us prove to you that it was the right choice by letting us help your friend.” Emma looked over at Psylocke, whose head was hung low. Logan's breath was growing shallower by the second. “Fine,” Emma said, showing a rare moment of compassion. “But you'll need to act fast. That mutt doesn't have much life left in him. And do me a favor...” “Anything!” Squirrel Girl cried, trying to restrain herself from wrapping Emma in a giant hug. “Cerebro was designed to store one current copy of each Mutant's memory profile,” Emma said. “Now that Krakoa has started to welcome more and more Mutants from other realities, I had Forge create partitions in Cerebro's memory storage. That way, the alternate versions of our allies won't accidentally overwrite each other. All of that to say, if you do manage to bring back Logan, please make sure it's the right one. The last thing I need is a wolf with the personality of Wolverine running loose on the island during my Gala.” “We'll be careful,” Squirrel Girl promised. “You have our word!” “Then you have my blessing,” Emma responded. A moment of contented silence passed before Emma snapped, “Well...? What are you waiting for? Let's go |
