I used to go to every single midnight showing of an MCU film, but after Avengers: Endgame, that dedication slowly waned as I found it impossible to enjoy the films on offer with the same enthusiasm that I used to. I thought I might just be tired of superheroes in general, but it wasn't until I started playing Marvel Rivals that I realised that the heroes never stopped being cool—only the movies did.
From the start, I was impressed with how the 35 heroes currently in Marvel Rivals all managed to stand out with different strengths and playstyles. There were no copypaste stand-ins, and while there are a couple of shared abilities like double jumps or stuns, every hero ends up feeling unique.
