The inaugural competitive season of Marvel Rivals is set to kick off, and the game is currently riding a wave of immense popularity! Even industry giant Tim Sweeney has acknowledged the fun factor in the game, a testament to its engaging gameplay.
What's particularly noteworthy is the developers' commitment to keeping players well-informed. NetEase has taken a significant step by making data on win and pick rates of all heroes publicly available, making it simpler for players to stay on top of the game meta. This transparency eliminates the need for third-party trackers, giving players direct access to crucial information.
Analyzing the current data, Doctor Strange emerges as the most picked hero at the highest levels of play, boasting a 34% pick rate and a commendable 51.87% win rate. Rounding out the top three in popularity are Mantis and Luna Snow.
When it comes to win rates, however, Hulk, Magik, and Iron Fist lead the pack. It's worth noting that Hulk is slated for a nerf in the upcoming season, while Magik will receive a buff. The disparity in their treatment could be attributed to their pick rates, with Hulk's being significantly higher.
Marvel Rivals is clearly at the forefront of the gaming scene right now, and it's encouraging to see that the developers are fully committed to maintaining momentum and enhancing the player experience.
