Marvel Rivals: Season 1 Hero Data Unveiled – Who Reigns Supreme?

NetEase has released compelling statistics highlighting the most popular and successful heroes in Marvel Rivals during its initial month. The data reveals player preferences and win rates across Quickplay and Competitive modes on both PC and console. With Season 1 and the Fantastic Four's arrival on January 10th, these rankings are poised for a shake-up.

Jeff the Land Shark emerges as the undisputed Quickplay champion, boasting the highest pick rate across both PC and console platforms. However, win rate tells a different story. Mantis, a Strategist hero, surprisingly claims the top spot with impressive win rates exceeding 50% in both Quickplay (56%) and Competitive (55%). Loki, Hela, and Adam Warlock follow closely behind.

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

Conversely, Storm, a Duelist character, struggles with abysmally low pick rates (1.66% in Quickplay and a mere 0.69% in Competitive), reflecting player dissatisfaction with her performance. However, NetEase has promised significant buffs for Storm in Season 1, potentially altering her position dramatically.

Here's a summary of the pre-Season 1 hero data:

Most Picked Heroes:

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

Highest Win Rate:

• Mantis: Quickplay & Competitive (PC & Console)

The introduction of the Fantastic Four in Season 1 promises to significantly impact the meta, making this a pivotal moment for Marvel Rivals. The upcoming balance changes, particularly for Storm, will undoubtedly reshape the competitive landscape.
