Marvel Rivals Meta: Track User Engagement Without Third-Party Code

Marvel Rivals' inaugural competitive season is on the horizon, and the game's popularity is exploding! Even Tim Sweeney's positive comments speak volumes about its engaging gameplay.

Crucially, the developers are prioritizing player transparency. NetEase's release of hero win and pick rate data makes meta tracking significantly easier. Players no longer need third-party resources to assess hero strength.

Currently, the data reveals Doctor Strange as the most frequently picked hero in high-level play, boasting a 34% pick rate and a 51.87% win rate. Mantis and Luna Snow round out the top three most popular characters.

However, Hulk, Magik, and Iron Fist exhibit the highest win rates. Interestingly, Hulk is slated for a nerf in the first season, while Magik receives a buff. This disparity likely stems from Hulk's significantly higher pick rate—double that of Magik.

Marvel Rivals is clearly a frontrunner in the current gaming landscape, and the developers show no signs of slowing down their momentum.
