Marvel Rivals' Most Triumphant Hero Revealed by NetEase

Marvel Rivals' character popularity reveals interesting trends across game modes. Jeff dominated "quick play," outperforming Venom and Cloak & Dagger. However, competitive play showed different favorites. On PC, Luna Snow, Cloak & Dagger, and Mantis led the pack, while on consoles, Cloak & Dagger, Penny Parker, and Mantis reigned supreme.

A surprising twist: Mantis, despite her popularity, was also the most frequently defeated competitive hero, leading on both PC and consoles, surpassing Hela, Loki, and Magic. Consoles saw a broader success, with 14 additional characters boasting win rates exceeding 50%.

Conversely, unpopular choices included Storm, Black Widow, and Wolverine in "quick play," while Nemore held that unfortunate title in competitive modes.

The game's recent surge in popularity, with over 500 mods submitted in a single month, has unfortunately sparked controversy. Nexus Mods' removal of modifications replacing Captain America's head with Donald Trump and Joe Biden's images ignited a firestorm of user reactions.

Nexus Mods owner, TheDarkOne, addressed the situation in a private Reddit discussion, explaining the simultaneous removal of both modifications to avoid accusations of bias. This action, however, appears to have been largely ignored by YouTube gaming commentators.
