The Shark to Shark achievement is one of those Marvel Rivals tasks that sounds straightforward but ends up eating more time than you'd expect as you wander the map looking for a statue. Once you know where the Charging Jeff statue actually is on Lower Manhattan and what to do there, the whole thing wraps up in under two minutes. Here's how to knock it out.
What is the Shark to Shark achievement?
Shark to Shark belongs to the Chronoverse Saga achievement set that arrived with the Lower Manhattan map in Marvel Rivals Season 7. The description: "As Jeff the Land Shark, use 1 emote in front of the Jeff Statue in Lower Manhattan." Finishing it gives you 5 Achievement Points, making it one of the faster point pickups tied to this map.

How to complete Shark to Shark
Step 1: Get into a Lower Manhattan match
Map selection in Marvel Rivals is random. You can't force Lower Manhattan into your queue. Queue up for quick match or competitive and wait until it shows up. Custom games won't register the completion, so you need a public match.
Step 2: Pick Jeff the Land Shark
Once Lower Manhattan loads, lock in Jeff the Land Shark before anyone else on your team grabs him. The achievement only triggers for Jeff. If someone else picks him first, back out and try again next time the map appears.
Step 3: Find the Charging Jeff statue
The golden Jeff statue sits in the middle of the road near the first spawn room of the team defending the convoy against Kingpin. It's positioned close to three landmarks: Union Allied Construction, the Empire State School of Business, and the Daily Globe.
Fastest route from spawn: exit through the door that leads straight to a snack stand, turn sharply right, and move forward. The statue will be right there in the road.
Step 4: Emote in front of the statue
Stand close to the statue, open your emote wheel, and use any emote. Every hero in Marvel Rivals comes with at least one default emote, so you don't need any premium cosmetics. Any emote works.
One thing to watch: emoting before the match officially starts may not register the achievement. Wait for the match to begin before you head for the statue and perform the emote.
What's the best time to go for this achievement?
The window before the convoy starts moving is your cleanest shot. The statue sits off the main path defenders use to reach the convoy point, so most enemies won't be near it at the start of the match. Head there right after spawn, get the emote done, then rotate to the objective.
Once the convoy begins moving, it eventually passes through the area near the statue. That's technically another window, but you'll almost certainly be in active combat by that point, making it much harder to stop and emote without getting eliminated.
