The games developer, NetEase, recently made the contentious announcement of a mid-season rank reset for Season 1, which was scheduled to take place on February 21, 2025, and would result in a four-tier reduction for players hard-earned rankings.Players were quick to voice their disapproval, seeing the decision as a cruel punishment for their hard work in the games competitive mode. In response to the negative feedback, NetEase scrapped the reset and promised to keep ranks intact while adding new incentives, such as the Invisible Womans Blood Shield skin, and the free Human Torch skin.However, weeks later, a startling twist has surfaced after Season 1.5 went live as some players are remorseful about their efforts to roll back the reset.

Captured by VideoGamer.One of the users said, Look at where we are now. GM is insanely inflated. Ranks in general are heavily inflated. You can blame the devs for making such an inflationary ranked system in the first place, but they also had the foresight to try to rollback the ranks periodically, so that not everyone is in GM or higher. Im of the opinion that they should have just rolled back the ranks like they initially planned.While part of the claim by the user is true, several players have reportedly raised issues with sweatier matchmaking lobbies, including the broken skill-based matchmaking. Players who once demanded stability are reconsidering, lamenting a missed chance to shake up a meta favoring seasoned veterans.On the other hand, some users are offering suggestions where one wrote, They just need to lower the win/lose ratio. You should only climb with more than 50% winrate, which, along with a seasonal rank reset, would solve the inflation issue.Still, there are some who like to sit on their ranks for months after grinding for a while, as the said, I do not regret asking at all. Im one of those busy people that doesnt have as much time as Id like to play Competitive. I needed a little extra time, and I appreciate receiving it.As the ranked drama continues to rage on, check out why Rivals players are pushing NetEase to add more Vanguards to the game and fixing hitboxes for one particular character.Marvel RivalsPlatform(s):macOS, PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series S, Xbox Series XGenre(s):Fighting, ShooterRelated TopicsMarvel Rivals Subscribe to our newsletters!By subscribing, you agree to our Privacy Policy and may receive occasional deal communications; you can unsubscribe anytime.Share
