Most Popular Marvel Rivals Characters: Official Pick Rate Rankings Revealed

The developers of Marvel Rivals have finally released official hero pick rate stats, showcasing which characters players love the most – and which ones are barely making the cut. As the game’s roster continues to grow, certain heroes have clearly emerged as fan favorites across both Quickplay and Competitive modes.

🕹️ Marvel Rivals Quickplay Pick Rates (Season 2 Data)

💻 PC Pick Rates

• Ultron 🧠 — 20.74%

🎮 Console Pick Rates

• Ultron 🧠 — 19.69%

It’s no surprise that Ultron and Emma Frost dominate Quickplay queues — they’ve been top-tier picks since their arrival in Season 2. On the other hand, Storm and Black Widow continue to struggle at the bottom, largely due to balance concerns and underwhelming performance.

🎯 Marvel Rivals Competitive Pick Rates (Ranked Mode)

💻 PC Pick Rates

• Cloak & Dagger 🌓 — 24.91%

🎮 Console Pick Rates

• Cloak & Dagger 🌓 — 25.48%

Across Ranked lobbies, Cloak & Dagger are the undisputed champs on both platforms. Their high-impact utility and synergy make them a staple in competitive matches.

Meanwhile, heroes like Black Widow, Human Torch, and Iron Fist consistently appear at the bottom — regardless of platform or game mode. ⚠️

📊 Most & Least Picked Heroes – Combined Overview

🏆 Most Popular

• Cloak & Dagger
• Emma Frost
• Magneto

These three heroes boast the highest overall pick rates thanks to their powerful kits and versatility. Strategists, in particular, have become central to most team comps due to their ability to swing fights with well-timed abilities.

❌ Least Popular

• Black Widow
• Human Torch

Despite their iconic status in the Marvel universe, both characters continue to see low usage. Fans are hopeful that Season 3 will bring some buffs to help them re-enter the meta.

🗓️ When Does Hero Pick Data Update?

The developers have confirmed that hero pick and win rate stats will be updated every half-season, meaning the current numbers reflect late Season 2. The next update will arrive with Season 3: The Abyss Awakens, which begins on July 11, 2025.

This upcoming season will introduce two new Duelists:

• Jean Grey (Phoenix) 🔥 – Likely available at launch
