Invisible Woman Used to Spot Alleged Bot Matches in Marvel Rivals

The introduction of the Invisible Woman to Marvel Rivals has sparked intriguing discussions among fans, particularly concerning the detection of what many believe to be bot enemies within their game lobbies. The issue of bots in Marvel Rivals has been a hot topic for weeks, with players suspecting that developer NetEase Games might be using low-level AI opponents to enhance player engagement. The fervor around this issue escalated with the arrival of Season 1, which introduced Mister Fantastic and the Invisible Woman last Friday, adding more than just a shift in the game's meta.

As players explored the capabilities of these new Fantastic Four members, Reddit user barky1616 posted a video showcasing a peculiar application of Invisible Woman’s ability. The footage captures Sue Storm using her invisibility to obstruct the path of half the enemy team simply by standing in their way. Remarkably, the opposing team members do not attempt to circumvent or engage her until she exits her invisibility mode, resuming the fight as expected. This unusual behavior has led many in the community to cite it as further evidence of a growing bot problem within Marvel Rivals.

The theory suggests that, since the opposing team is allegedly comprised of bots, they fail to recognize the path blockage caused by Invisible Woman. While attempting this strategy may yield different results for other players, the clip has left the community puzzled and concerned about the potential prevalence of bots.

Without an official statement from NetEase, it remains uncertain whether AI opponents are indeed infiltrating Marvel Rivals matches or if other factors are at play. IGN has sought clarification from NetEase regarding the alleged bot presence in Marvel Rivals.

Amidst these discussions about bot matches, players are continuing to enjoy the content drop delivered with Season 1. This initial phase of the season introduced half of the Fantastic Four as playable characters, with The Thing and the Human Torch set to join the roster soon. As anticipation builds for these iconic Marvel characters in the hero shooter environment, players can review every major balance change introduced last Friday. Additionally, insights into how players are responding to NetEase’s crackdown on mods and why some are having trouble taking Reed Richards seriously provide further context to the evolving gameplay experience.
