Marvel Rivals: Season 1 Approaches with New Hero Data Unveiled
NetEase has released comprehensive player statistics for Marvel Rivals, highlighting the most and least popular heroes during the game's initial month. The data reveals surprising trends and anticipates significant shifts with the upcoming Season 1 update.
Jeff the Land Shark reigns supreme in Quickplay across both PC and console platforms, boasting the highest pick rate. However, Mantis unexpectedly claims the top spot for win rate, exceeding 50% in both Quickplay and Competitive modes (56% and 55% respectively). Other high-performing characters include Loki, Hela, and Adam Warlock.
The complete list of most picked heroes is:
Conversely, Storm, a Duelist character, struggles with incredibly low pick rates (1.66% in Quickplay and a mere 0.69% in Competitive), largely attributed to player feedback regarding her underwhelming damage and gameplay experience. However, NetEase has announced substantial buffs for Storm in Season 1, potentially altering her position significantly.
Season 1, launching January 10th, introduces the Fantastic Four, promising to reshape the meta and likely impact these statistics dramatically. The addition of Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman at launch, followed by The Human Torch and The Thing mid-season, will undoubtedly introduce new strategic elements and alter hero popularity.
