Marvel Rivals Unveils Updated Hero Stats and Popularity

Marvel Rivals' First Month: Hero Stats Unveiled!

NetEase has released the first month's player statistics for Marvel Rivals, revealing the most and least popular heroes. The data covers both Quickplay and Competitive modes across PC and console platforms.

Jeff the Land Shark reigns supreme in Quickplay popularity, proving a fan favorite across both PC and console players. However, when it comes to win rates, Mantis takes the top spot, boasting over a 50% win rate in both Quickplay (56%) and Competitive (55%) modes. Other high-performing heroes include Loki, Hela, and Adam Warlock.

The competitive landscape reveals platform-specific favorites: Cloak & Dagger dominate on console, while Luna Snow reigns supreme on PC.

Conversely, Storm struggles with incredibly low pick rates (1.66% in Quickplay and a dismal 0.69% in Competitive), reflecting player dissatisfaction with her current performance. However, hope is on the horizon for Storm fans; Season 1 balance changes include significant buffs for this Duelist character.

The upcoming Season 1, launching January 10th, will introduce the Fantastic Four, promising to shake up the meta and potentially alter these statistics dramatically. The addition of Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman at launch, followed by The Human Torch and The Thing mid-season, will undoubtedly impact hero selection and win rates. NetEase's data provides a fascinating snapshot of the game's early days, setting the stage for an exciting new season.
