Marvel Heroes' Stats Ranked: Discover the Fan Favorites

Marvel Rivals: Season 1 Hero Statistics Reveal Top Performers and Underdogs

NetEase has unveiled intriguing player statistics for Marvel Rivals, highlighting the most and least popular heroes during the game's initial month. The data reveals surprising trends in hero selection and win rates across Quickplay and Competitive modes on both PC and console platforms. This analysis comes just before the highly anticipated Season 1 launch, which introduces the Fantastic Four.

Jeff the Land Shark reigns supreme in Quickplay popularity, emerging as the most picked hero across both PC and console. However, win rate tells a different story. Mantis, a Strategist hero, boasts the highest win rate overall, exceeding 50% in both Quickplay (56%) and Competitive (55%). Other high-performing characters include Loki, Hela, and Adam Warlock.

The competitive landscape showcases platform-specific favorites: Cloak & Dagger dominates on console, while Luna Snow reigns supreme 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

Conversely, Storm, a Duelist character, struggles with extremely low pick rates (1.66% in Quickplay and a mere 0.69% in Competitive), attributed to perceived weaknesses in damage output and gameplay. However, hope remains for Storm players, as NetEase has announced significant buffs for her in the upcoming Season 1 balance changes. This could significantly alter her standing in the meta.

The introduction of the Fantastic Four in Season 1, launching January 10th, promises to shake up the existing meta and potentially redefine the hero tier list. This data provides a fascinating snapshot of the game's initial phase, setting the stage for exciting changes to come.
