Marvel Rivals Season 1 is upon us, and with it comes new heroes, new maps, and some pretty interesting buffs and nerfs. In the run-up to its release, I got to check out this season, and while the new heroes may be a little broken and a pain to play against, they are also incredibly fun.
The first thing I did once I got into the test server was try out the two new heroes coming to Season 1, half of the Fantastic Four: Mister Fantastic and the Invisible Woman. I was initially interested in Mister Fantastic after watching his teaser trailer, which demonstrated how he could transform into a Vanguard, deflect incoming damage, and bash enemy players into one another.

Mister Fantastic is an excellent flanker—diving on Strategists or escaping from a fight is easy thanks to this chest bump ability (known as Flexible Elongation), as you can latch yourself to enemies or teammates and drag yourself toward them. The bump also deals some nasty damage. It’s probably the most obnoxious attack I’ve ever seen. Although his primary weapon took some getting used to, it’s incredibly effective as long as you can hit your shots. Punching your enemies won’t just deal a good chunk of damage to one player—if you hold down the left mouse button and drag it across your screen, you can hit multiple targets as long as they’re close to one another.
