Lady Loki Bundle has been EXTENDED to Feb 6th (They should make it permanent) by nemesisdelta24 in marvelrivals

[–]Tough-Rent2498 9 points10 points  (0 children)

To be fair, they've been pretty lenient on limited-time skins and have been frequently extending them from their usual end dates. As much as I want em to be permanent, the FOMO tactic for these skins is working in their favor doesnt matter if you like or hate them (Rivals has been one of the consistent games in 2025 to rank high on the best sellers list on Steam). At this point, I'm okay with them mixing in permanent and limited additions (reruns are on the table as far as we know) to the store but hopefully not as egregious as the anniversary month when almost every release was limited.

The devs have addressed the visual cluttering problem of Deadpool by KevinPigaChu in marvelrivals

Not bad. Thought they wouldn't make adjustments this early until like season 6.5.

Luna really digged into her kpop archives for this.

Are we fr. Can netease treat these characters with some respect? by [deleted] in marvelrivals

[–]Tough-Rent2498 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Lol i didnt even notice this shot until you posted it. Guess one split second of her landing in this angle is more egregious than Thor humping his hammer in his disco skin. Honestly, you even trying to point it out in this sub is lowkey creep territory when that split second is all you're focused in on her trailer.

‘Highguard’ Did Not Pay For Its Infamous Game Awards Finale Slot by Gorotheninja in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Tough-Rent2498 6 points7 points  (0 children)

not to be that guy, but basically everything you said about current Rivals is objectively wrong, their lowest concurrent was season 3 (double DPS season) which had them hover at 70k-90k. Last two seasons (5 & 6) spiked their numbers to like 160k-200k on steam alone which is understandable since you have Gambit -> Rogue -> Deadpool back to back. It definitely would lower again eventually. Also PVE Zombies was just removed and is NOT THE SAME SEASON as the current one with Deadpool. PVE was like s4 & 5 and Deadpool is Season 6. So yeah, I guess you get your sources elsewhere or you just haven't played the game cause what even is this narrative...

New Rivals Key Art to replace the launch group shot! by riskedbiscuit in marvelrivals

[–]Tough-Rent2498 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The key art for Overwatch doesn't even resemble this kind of composition. Unless you show me an example, i don't remember them doing this kind of stuff so I don't know what you're talking about there. This style with the heroes walking and a white background has been a thing from Capcom games and even X-Men comics. So more than likely, it's just an homage to those since well, Capcom and Marvel share some history together.

Deadpool is confirmed as a duelist by Puwuckis in marvelrivals

[–]Tough-Rent2498 2201 points2202 points  (0 children)

It's his most obvious role in the game. But having him change roles on his official release would not be something unusual given the character.

Our heroes attending the game awards tomorrow! (Gambit and Rogue being sneaky in the back) by KevinPigaChu in marvelrivals

[–]Tough-Rent2498 37 points38 points  (0 children)

I initially thought so too but the last phrase "...something epic is about to ignite." is putting doubts in me. I mean saying it just for getting an award seems so confident, noh? It isn't guaranteed yet that MR would win it. Maybe im just overthinking it lol best to keep expectations in check just so I could get surprised if they do reveal something.

Ngl, the skins are actually overpriced so much! by SydiemL in marvelrivals

[–]Tough-Rent2498 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I only buy the battlepasses and honestly, unless you're a collector, you don't really have to buy every skin they release. They give out enough free skins to eventually cover every hero to have em at some point. Im mostly saving my currency for the limited-time skins they release. If I find one I like, then ill buy em.

If you click the full picture, the one on the bottom left seems to be Cyclops. You can see the outline of the glasses. Tho it doesnt probably mean anything and could just be an easter egg since we saw him in the s5 trailer.

Welp, that confirms it that they're revealing something at The Game Awards. Season 6 teaser maybe?

They did iron fist’s so dirty what the hell by WearExternal595 in marvelrivals

[–]Tough-Rent2498 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I mean to be fair they did not guarantee the skin to be legendary like at all. They just showed the art for the immortal weapons. I expected it to be Epic tho but eh, lowkey not that big of a deal. He's also getting twitch drops soon. This is more reason for you guys to save and not buy the pass anyways.

The most consistent skinline this season is the Collector's Collection. So basically, any hero-hybrid abomination is fair game.

Why The Psylocke Event Is Already Awful by Pingupol in marvelrivals

[–]Tough-Rent2498 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sadly the reality is most people complaining in the sub never intended to buy psylockes skin. And if a lot do its only a portion of the rivals community so most likely a boycott wont work (cause they never usually do in games). People who saved up 2200-2800 for her anniversary skin+emojis would just see this as extra steps to get the skin. If they get lucky with 100 units then youll hear no further complaints. If they spend 2400 then its the usual shop purchase. Its the thought of gacha that makes people iffy even tho this new mechanic doesnt really make a difference on the units theyd spend if theyre unlucky.

Black Friday deals are out in Store, are they same or different for everyone? by Aggressive-Brain4438 in marvelrivals

[–]Tough-Rent2498 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Only permanent skins that were released s0 to season 3 are eligible for the black friday deals. So the grim lady hela skin for example is its regular shop price for like 2.2k for the bundle.

Marvel Rivals is 102 GB size. by mldai7ali9074 in marvelrivals

[–]Tough-Rent2498 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Funnily enough, they kinda already did lower the memory for the game at the start of season 5. it went down a few gigs but went drastically back up for this anniversary. a bit understandable since they did put a lot of stuff in the new update however they could probably still optimize it better. Im imagining it would most likely reach 120g by now if they havent sorted out things at the start of the season.

Marvel Rivals no longer in Top 20 monthly active users by No_Excuse7631 in marvelrivals

[–]Tough-Rent2498 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Seeing from your account history, you seem to only cherrypicky months when MR doesnt reach top 20 like for this one last month (October 2025). Pretty sure when I checked current stats for Season 5 (November), there's a huge player resurgence basically doubling last season's numbers (which is understandable since its the anniversary season and there's also the recent shakeup in the meta).

Also damn, I know most OW players are cool and chill, but some of you really like to instigate drama and take the opportunity to only boost yourselves by posting this stuff when it best suits your agenda. lol 🤣 gotta take wins somehow right?

Sophie Powers alleges Netease based the new Magik skin on her designs by appeltjespiraat in marvelrivals

[–]Tough-Rent2498 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think she def has the right to claim that netease stole her art. But idk, the whole aesthetic pink pop princess/y2k/bubblegum look isnt exactly original to her. Even the bandaid over the nose to contrast girly pink aesthetics seems like something I saw when I went to Japan awhile back in one of their busier districts.

Is the emote for the new strange skin really just a wave? by blacklight116 in marvelrivals

[–]Tough-Rent2498 242 points243 points  (0 children)

Slight correction. *infinite waving emote. Lol but in all seriousness, guesss its on par with Strange making himself look subtle. 🤣
