Arya Stark is one of the squishier assassins of MultiVersus, meaning she can't take lots of damage and is easy to kill, but the trade-off is that she can burst down any enemy in the game with the right set of moves, combos, and specials.

Arya Stark combos

Though a bit difficult to land, Arya’s up-special is a crucial combo starter. After landing it, she will automatically chase opponents, allowing her to combo into an up-air or forward-air.

Arya can also combo two up-specials into each other, then finish off her opponent with an up-air near the top of the screen.

If she can manage to steal her opponent’s face, it will help her combo game as well. Stunning her opponent will make it easier to land her up-special or any other combo starter.

Conversely, she can attach a knife to an enemy and immediately dash to them and attack them with an aerial. Since she lacks projectiles, these moves are crucial for helping Arya approach and get her offence started.

Arya Stark perks

Perk Effect
Betrayal Hitting an ally with Arya's dagger gives them an enraged buff. If Arya dashes to a dagger on an ally, she enrages herself.
Trophy When Arya knocks out an enemy, she automatically obtains their face.

While Arya doesn’t naturally learn any Defense perks, she benefits from the Offense perk Snowball Effect. This causes her team to deal 7% more damage to whichever fighter has the highest damage. This allows her to run away with any leads she gets.

Arya can also make good use of two Utility perks. Fancy Footwork increases her dodge distance by 5%, improving her defensive game and her aerial movement. Meanwhile, Leg Day Champ makes her even more of a threat in the air by upping her jump height by 10%.
