Official website data reveals surprising character popularity in Marvel Rivals. In "quick play," Jeff reigned supreme, outpacing Venom and Cloak & Dagger. However, competitive play showed different favorites. On PC, Luna Snow, Cloak & Dagger, and Mantis led the pack, while console players favored Cloak & Dagger, Penny Parker, and Mantis.
A curious twist: Mantis, the most popular competitive character, also suffered the most defeats. She dominated on both PC and consoles, surpassing Hela, Loki, and Magic. Mantis's console success was mirrored by fourteen other characters boasting win rates over 50%.
Conversely, some characters lagged in popularity. Storm, Black Widow, and Wolverine struggled in "quick play," while Nemore took the bottom spot in competitive matches.
Marvel Rivals, having received over 500 mods in a single month, is now facing controversy. Nexus Mods removed modifications replacing Captain America's head with images of Donald Trump and Joe Biden, sparking significant player backlash.
Nexus Mods owner, TheDarkOne, explained in a private Reddit discussion that both Trump and Biden-related mods were removed simultaneously to avoid accusations of bias. This action, designed to maintain neutrality, apparently hasn't garnered much attention from YouTube commentators.
