DEXERTOOfficial hero pick rate data for Marvel Rivals is available, allowing us to see the most popular and most picked characters that players keep turning to.
Although Marvel Rivals features a stacked roster of heroes and villains, some have proven more popular than others since launch.
You’ll often notice specific characters appearing in matches over and over again, and now – with Season 4– the devs have shared the official data to reveal the most picked heroes.
Marvel Rivals Quickplay pick rates
PC
CHARACTER | TYPE | PICK RATE |
|---|---|---|
Strategist | 20.95% |
Console
CHARACTER | TYPE | PICK RATE |
|---|---|---|
Strategist | 22.12% |
Quickplay pick rates take into account both PC and console separately. It’s no surprise to see Jeff the Land Shark, Cloak & Dagger, Emma Frost, and Invisible Woman take the top spots in both, as they’ve been the go-to characters in Marvel Rivals since their respective debuts.
Meanwhile, the likes of Storm and Human Torch remain at the bottom end of both lists, along with Black Widow and Wolverine. We’ll just have to wait and see how the meta evolves during the upcoming seasons and whether they can climb back up.
Marvel Rival Competitive pick rates
PC
CHARACTER | TYPE | PICK RATE |
|---|---|---|
Strategist | 25.95% |
Console
CHARACTER | TYPE | PICK RATE |
|---|---|---|
Strategist | 27.66% |
The Marvel Rivals Competitive pick rates are broken up by platform, giving us insight into who is dominating Ranked lobbies on both console and PC. At the time of writing, Cloak & Dagger, Doctor Strange, Invisible Woman, and Rocket Raccoon are still the most-picked heroes across both PC and console.
However, where Cloak & Dagger thrive, Black Widow, Human Torch, and Wolverine do the opposite. They can regularly be found sitting at the bottom of all the rankings, regardless of quickplay or competitive.
