A prominent Marvel Rivals leaker surprises fans by revealing that four new heroes could be making their debut in Season 1 of the popular hero shooter.

Groot is a friendly giant tree alien, but he is an absolute asset in Marvel Rivals, defensively and offensively. His walls can block attacks and other enemies in key hallways, and his main physical attack has a lot of range, making him a menace on the battlefield. Here's how to play as Groot in Marvel Rivals.

As with almost every competitive hero shooter, Marvel Rivals has hitbox issues, but these might be impossible for NetEase to solve.

Marvel Rivals is a 6v6 team game where you often have to rely on your allies to achieve victory despite good individual performances. As such, it may feel frustrating when you have been doing everything possible and yet you're unable to win because of skill difference between your team and the opponent.

This can be especially important in Marvel Rivals, as the team-based shooter relies on more than just eliminating enemy heroes. You need to be able to target your allies to give them beneficial buffs as well.

Marvel Rivals' impressive roster already has plenty of powerful hero combinations that can help dominate the ranks as the game enters Season 1.

Marvel Rivals features limited hero bans in high ranks, which has led many players to discuss whether hero bans should be expanded in lower ranks.
