A Marvel Rivals player's Grandmaster I achievement sparks a team composition debate. The player challenges the conventional wisdom of two Vanguards, two Duelists, and two Strategists, arguing that any team with at least one Vanguard and one Strategist is competitive.
Marvel Rivals Season 1 is on the horizon, with upcoming character reveals (including the Fantastic Four) generating excitement. As Season 0 concludes, players are vying for higher ranks, particularly Gold to secure the Moon Knight skin. This competitive push has highlighted frustrations with unbalanced teams lacking Vanguards or Strategists.
Redditor Few_Event_1719, a newly minted Grandmaster I player, advocates for flexible team compositions. They contend that even unconventional setups, like three Duelists and three Strategists (omitting Vanguards entirely), can be successful. This aligns with NetEase Games' stated intention to avoid a role queue system, prioritizing compositional freedom. While some players welcome this flexibility, others lament matches dominated by Duelists.
Grandmaster's Unconventional Team Strategies
Community reactions are divided. Some argue that a single Strategist is insufficient, leaving the team vulnerable when the healer is targeted. However, others support unconventional team builds, citing their own successes. They emphasize the importance of communication and awareness, noting that Strategists often announce when they're taking damage.
The Competitive mode continues to be a focus of community discussion, with ongoing suggestions for improvement. Proposed changes include hero bans across all ranks to enhance balance and gameplay enjoyment, and the removal of Seasonal Bonuses, seen by some as detrimental to balance. Despite acknowledged imperfections, the community remains engaged and enthusiastic about the game's future.
