The Marvel Rivals tier list is proof of an inherent truth: not every hero (or villain) is built equally. In the competitive shooter’s season 1 (which added two characters, two maps, a battle pass, and skins ), every character is technically viable, but there are some who are obviously more powerful than the rest.

Game director Guangyun Chen says "we just eventually want to continue to enhance the experience, and, you know, keep everyone excited in our community"

Marvel Rivals is crushing its first season launch with hundreds of thousands of concurrent players across console and PC, and players are getting to know Mr. Fantastic and The Invisible Woman as its two new heroes, with The Thing and Human Torch coming in a month and a half or so.

NetEase Games is telling Marvel Rivals players that a new hero will launch every month and a half as additional seasons roll out. The studio’s creative director, Guangyun Chen, clarified the team’s post-launch plans during an interview with Metro.
