The excitement is building as the Fantastic Four are set to reunite in one of this winter's most eagerly awaited games. Next Friday, fans of *Marvel Rivals* can look forward to the arrival of The Thing and The Human Torch with the next major update. This addition is sure to bring fresh dynamics and thrilling gameplay to the mix.
In just 10 days, a significant milestone in the ranked mode will be reached. Players who have been actively competing in ranked matches can look forward to receiving rewards. Those who have achieved Gold rank and above will unlock exclusive skins, adding a stylish edge to their characters. Meanwhile, the most skilled players reaching Grandmaster rank or higher will be awarded a prestigious Crest of Honor, a testament to their dedication and prowess.
However, there's a downside to this update: a partial reset of ranks is on the horizon. Each player will be set back by four divisions, a move that has stirred some discontent among the community. The rationale behind this decision is clear, yet it's met with resistance because players are reluctant to see their hard-earned progress diminished mid-season. This reset might particularly discourage casual players who may not relish the prospect of grinding through the ranks all over again.
On a positive note, the developers have expressed their willingness to be flexible. They've indicated that should the feedback be overwhelmingly negative, they are open to reevaluating and possibly adjusting this policy. This openness to change offers hope that player concerns will be taken seriously and addressed in future updates.
