Ever noticed players tagging flashy logos and cheeky images onto walls and floors in Marvel Rivals? That’s the game’s spray feature—a fun, purely cosmetic system for firing off style, celebrations, or friendly taunts in the middle of a match. But what actually is the spray button, and how does it work on different platforms?
What the Spray Button Does
Sprays let players display custom images—unlocked through gameplay or purchases—on any valid surface during a match.

They work much like sprays in many other hero shooters, serving as a quick and easy way to personalize the battlefield, celebrate a big play, or coordinate with teammates. Sprays are for flair, not gameplay advantage.
Which Button is the Spray Button?
- On PC: The default spray button is T. Simply press and hold the “T” key to bring up the spray and emote wheel. Use your mouse to select the spray you want, and release “T” to deploy the chosen image where your crosshair is aimed.
- On PlayStation 5 & Xbox Series X|S: Hold Left on the D-pad. This opens your emote/spray wheel. Use the right analog stick to highlight the spray you want, then release the D-pad direction to tag the surface.
You can always customize this binding in the game’s control settings to whatever feels most natural.
How to Set Up and Use Sprays
Before using sprays in-game:
- Equip your desired sprays from the main menu (usually under the “Heroes” or “Cosmetics” tabs).
- Assign sprays to slots in your spray wheel for quick access during matches.
- Only one of your sprays can appear on the map at a time; placing a new one removes the old one.
The Final Word
The spray button in Marvel Rivals is a small but powerful tool for self-expression, making every match more colorful and personal. Whether you’re celebrating a big play or just adding flair, knowing how to use the spray button can make your Marvel Rivals experience even more memorable.
