Marvel Rivals' inaugural competitive season is rapidly approaching, generating significant excitement! The game's popularity is undeniable, even garnering praise from Tim Sweeney for its enjoyable gameplay.
A key development enhancing the competitive landscape is NetEase's release of hero win and pick rate data. This eliminates reliance on third-party trackers for meta analysis. Currently, Doctor Strange dominates with a 34% pick rate and a 51.87% win rate, making him the top-tier choice. Mantis and Luna Snow round out the top three most popular heroes.
Interestingly, Hulk, Magik, and Iron Fist boast the highest win rates. However, a planned nerf for Hulk and a buff for Magik in the upcoming season suggest a potential shift in the meta. The disparity likely stems from Hulk's significantly higher pick rate, roughly double that of Magik.
Marvel Rivals is clearly a frontrunner in the current gaming scene, and the developers' continued commitment to improvement is encouraging.
