Marvel Rivals: Season 1 Launch Data Reveals Top Picks and Win Rates
NetEase has released statistics highlighting the most popular and successful Marvel Rivals heroes during the game's initial month. The data reveals player preferences and win rates across Quickplay and Competitive modes on PC and console. This information comes just before the highly anticipated Season 1 launch, which introduces the Fantastic Four.
Jeff the Land Shark reigns supreme in Quickplay popularity, proving a fan favorite across both PC and console platforms. However, Mantis unexpectedly claims the top spot for win rate, boasting over 50% in both Quickplay and Competitive modes. Other high-performing heroes include Loki, Hela, and Adam Warlock.
The popularity chart paints a varied picture. While Jeff dominates Quickplay, Cloak & Dagger lead in Console Competitive, and Luna Snow takes the crown for PC Competitive.
Marvel Rivals: Most Popular Heroes
- Quickplay (PC & Console): Jeff the Land Shark
- Competitive (Console): Cloak & Dagger
- Competitive (PC): Luna Snow
Conversely, Storm, a Duelist character, struggles with extremely low pick rates (1.66% in Quickplay and a dismal 0.69% in Competitive), largely attributed to perceived low damage output and unappealing gameplay. However, NetEase has announced significant buffs for Storm in Season 1, potentially altering her position drastically. The upcoming Season 1, launching January 10th, promises to reshape the meta with the addition of the Fantastic Four and these balance adjustments.
