Marvel Rivals Season 1: Hero Performance 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 hints at potential 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, the win rate champion is Mantis, a Strategist hero, achieving over 50% win rates in both Quickplay (56%) and Competitive modes (55%). Other high-performing heroes include Loki, Hela, and Adam Warlock.
The "Hero Hot List" also reveals platform-specific favorites in competitive play: Cloak & Dagger for console players and Luna Snow for PC players.
Here's a breakdown of the most picked heroes:
- Quickplay (PC & Console): Jeff the Land Shark
- Competitive (Console): Cloak & Dagger
- Competitive (PC): Luna Snow
In contrast, Storm, a Duelist, struggles with incredibly low pick rates (1.66% in Quickplay and a dismal 0.69% in Competitive), largely due to player feedback regarding her underwhelming damage and frustrating gameplay. However, NetEase has announced significant buffs for Storm in Season 1, potentially altering her position on the leaderboard.
The arrival of the Fantastic Four in Season 1, launching January 10th, is expected to significantly impact these statistics, creating exciting possibilities for the meta.
