NetEase has announced balance changes aimed at addressing the overpowering Triple Strategist meta in Marvel Rivals. The company recognized that characters like Cloak & Dagger and Invisible Woman have led to frustrating gameplay at high levels due to their quick-recharging and healing abilities. As part of the Season 1 mid-update, ultimate energy costs will increase, reducing the frequency of these potent ultimates. The changes seek to create a more exhilarating game pace and will also include nerfs to popular Vanguard characters like Venom and Magneto, ensuring a more varied gameplay experience.
With increased ultimate energy costs and targeted nerfs to key strategists, NetEase aims to balance gameplay by reducing over-reliance on the Triple Strategist meta.
The game's lead combat designer emphasized the need for every match to feel exhilarating, addressing the oppressive nature of the current triple-strategist setup.
While changes will impact character performance, NetEase intends to preserve some viability of the triple-support playstyle without removing exciting counterplay options.
Nerfs to fan-favorite characters like Cloak & Dagger, Venom, and Magneto are part of a wider effort to diversify strategies and enhance game experience.
