A Marvel Rivals player's Grandmaster I achievement prompts a reevaluation of team composition strategies. The prevailing belief favors a 2-2-2 team setup (two Vanguards, two Duelists, two Strategists). However, this player contends that any team with at least one Vanguard and one Strategist is capable of victory.
This advice comes as Season 1 approaches, with anticipation building for new characters (including the Fantastic Four) and maps. The current Season 0 is seeing a surge in competitive play, fueled partly by the pursuit of the free Moon Knight skin. This has led to frustration among players encountering teams lacking Vanguards or Strategists.
Redditor Few_Event_1719, having reached Grandmaster I, challenges the conventional wisdom. They highlight the viability of unconventional team compositions, even citing success with a three Duelist, three Strategist lineup—a strategy that completely omits Vanguards. This aligns with NetEase Games' stated intention to avoid implementing a role queue system, a decision that divides the player base.
Community reactions are mixed. Some argue that a single Strategist is insufficient, leaving the team vulnerable. Others support the idea of experimental compositions, sharing their own positive experiences. The effectiveness of a single Strategist, they argue, depends on players' awareness of in-game audio and visual cues, as Strategists announce when they're under attack.
The competitive scene is a lively topic, with ongoing discussions about potential improvements. Suggestions include hero bans to enhance balance and the removal of Seasonal Bonuses to address perceived imbalances. Despite ongoing debates, the game's popularity remains strong, and players eagerly await Season 1's content.
