New Stats Unveiled: Marvel Rivals Dominates with Popular Heroes

Marvel Rivals Season 1: Hero Performance Data Unveiled

NetEase has released comprehensive player statistics for Marvel Rivals, highlighting the most and least popular characters 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, Mantis surprisingly claims the top spot for win rate across all game modes and platforms, exceeding 50% in both Quickplay (56%) and Competitive (55%). Other high-performing characters include Loki, Hela, and Adam Warlock.

The "Hero Hot List" also reveals platform-specific favorites: Cloak & Dagger leads in console competitive matches, while Luna Snow dominates on PC.

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 stark contrast, Storm, a Duelist character, suffers from extremely low pick rates (1.66% in Quickplay and a mere 0.69% in Competitive), largely due to player feedback regarding her underwhelming damage and gameplay experience. However, NetEase has announced significant buffs for Storm in Season 1, potentially altering her position on the leaderboard.

The introduction of the Fantastic Four in Season 1, launching January 10th, is expected to significantly impact these statistics, making this pre-Season 1 data a fascinating snapshot of the game's early meta.
