The Spring Festival in *Marvel Rivals* has arrived, introducing a thrilling new mode called Clash of Dancing Lions. To advance through the event's Battle Pass, players must dive into this mode and tackle various challenges. One key skill to master is intercepting the ball. Let's break down how to do it effectively.
What Is an Interception in Clash of Dancing Lions in Marvel Rivals?
If you're not familiar with sports or haven't played games like *Rocket League*, the concept of an "interception" might seem foreign. But don't worry, it's simpler than it sounds. In *Marvel Rivals*, intercepting the ball means taking it away from the opposing team. With plenty of opportunities to do so in Clash of Dancing Lions, positioning yourself correctly is crucial for success.

How To Intercept the Ball in Clash of Dancing Lions in Marvel Rivals
In *Marvel Rivals*'s latest mode, teams of three work together to score goals. The team with the highest score at the end of the match emerges victorious, making it essential to prevent the opposing team from scoring. Intercepting the ball is a key strategy to achieve this.
The most effective way to intercept the ball is by positioning yourself in your opponents' throwing lanes—the spaces between two players where they are most likely to pass the ball. Identify two enemy players, anticipate their pass, and swiftly move into their throwing lane using one of your character's abilities. It may take a few attempts, but with the constant ball movement in Clash of Dancing Lions, you'll have multiple chances to intercept.
Another opportunity to intercept arises when your opponent believes they have an easy goal. As they prepare to score, attack them and seize the ball. This approach can be risky, as you're the last line of defense, but it's a worthwhile strategy if you're aiming to complete the Spring Festival challenges.
Lastly, ensure you're comfortable with the movement abilities of your chosen character. Nothing is more frustrating than missing an interception due to unfamiliarity with your character's mechanics. Among the available characters, Star-Lord stands out with his superior movement. Use his dash to position yourself in the enemy's throwing lane and his guns to knock the ball free, making it an easy interception.
Mastering these techniques will help you intercept the ball effectively in Clash of Dancing Lions in *Marvel Rivals*. For more on the game, check out all the Chronoverse Saga Achievements in *Marvel Rivals* Season 1 and how to unlock them.
