Marvel Rivals Unveils Top Played Characters and Key Metrics

Marvel Rivals: Season 1 Update Previews Top and Bottom Performing Heroes

NetEase has released performance statistics for Marvel Rivals, highlighting the most and least popular heroes during the game's initial month. The data reveals player preferences and win rates across Quickplay and Competitive modes on both PC and console. This data release precedes the highly anticipated Season 1 launch, which introduces the Fantastic Four.

Jeff the Land Shark reigns supreme in Quickplay popularity, boasting the highest pick rate across both PC and console platforms. However, when it comes to win rates, Mantis takes the lead, achieving over 50% win rates in both Quickplay and Competitive modes (56% and 55% respectively). Other high-performing heroes include Loki, Hela, and Adam Warlock.

The most picked heroes in each category are:

  • Quickplay (PC & Console): Jeff the Land Shark
  • Competitive (Console): Cloak & Dagger
  • Competitive (PC): Luna Snow

Conversely, Storm, a Duelist character, struggles with extremely low pick rates (1.66% in Quickplay and a mere 0.69% in Competitive), largely due to player feedback regarding her underperforming damage and frustrating gameplay. However, NetEase has announced balance adjustments for Season 1, including significant buffs for Storm, potentially altering her future performance. The upcoming Season 1, launching January 10th, is expected to significantly impact these statistics.
