Marvel Rivals fans believe many hero playstyles aren’t lore accurate

At the time of writing, Season 1 of Marvel Rivals is ongoing with 37 heroes in total. However, some fans believe that the playstyles of certain Marvel characters are not exactly lore-accurate. Wolverine, Magneto, and Black Widow are some of the names that have caught the most attention among the community, as discussed in this post on X. Wolverine tops the list, with several players claiming his "Auto Regen should be quicker." Several other fans agreed with the statement and chimed in their own thoughts, with one player echoing, "He should auto-regen and very quickly too." In the comics, the mutant heals at an accelerated rate, which means his damaged cells and tissues get repaired in just a few seconds, and it gives him an edge in any sort of fight. Another player added that Wolverine could have a "tracking/wall climbing" ability as his Adamantium claws could allow that. https://twitter.com/MRivalsMedia/status/1896976008450048400 Moving on to Magneto, one player thinks he's a "good character," but when it comes to executing his in-game abilities, it's been "horrible." Another chimed in, "Magneto should be able to at least hover to some degree," just like he does in the comics and movies. "Magneto ultimate should let him lift enemies and slam them," said another. On the other hand, one player feels that "Black Widow suffered THE MOST." "Her kit sucks cause all she has is a sniper, batons, and a kick. Home girl is trained to hold any kind of weapon, and all she got was a sniper." "Black Widow needs immediate rework," echoed another. Some other notable mentions from the hero pool include Adam Warlock, Spider-Man, Hela, and the Hulk. Among all the claims, a particular player said, "Every character is damn near perfect. They focused more on the original content (comics) than the movies. They just need to keep going all out." "The lore changes every time a new fad comes around. All the characters are flawed but still fun to play. The constant tweaking and new characters are great," said another. At the time of writing, it's difficult to say whether NetEase Games will bring all the requested changes to the characters mentioned above. Nevertheless, Marvel Rivals is a fun game to play, and with the arrival of the new limited-time Clone Rumble game mode, it'll get even more chaotic.
