Throughout Season 0 and into Season 1, players demonstrated obvious preferences, with certain characters emerging as fan favorites owing to their unique skills and gameplay mechanics.The Duelists, known for their attacking talents, have seen a diverse range of heroes emerge, but one character, previously deemed underrated, has made an unexpected rise to the top. Storm, the X-Mens weather-controlling mutant, has proven to be a game-changer in Season 1s competitive matchups. Despite her initial poor selection rates in Season 0, a succession of buffs have changed her into the seasons highest victory rate hero.This meta-shift caught many players off guard, as Storms ability to control the battlefield with wind, rain, and lightning has proven to be quite powerful.Storm emerges as Duelist with highest win rate in Marvel Rivals Season 1 competitive modeAccording to stats gathered by the popular X page Rivals Assembled, Storm currently has the highest win rate in Marvel Rivals Season 1 across all ranks in competitive mode. Her win rate of 56.22% makes her a top choice for players and the only duelist to climb that status so rapidly while just weeks into the new season.Storm win stats in Marvel Rivals Season 1. Image credit Rivals Assembled.But her OP stats dont just stop there. Shes also the second-highest banned hero in competitive lobbies with a 45.66% ban rate, only behind Hulk which means clearly the competitive teams do not want her in any of their matches which can easily turn the tide for a team.However, her pick rate is clearly in the 17th position among all heroes with 14.01% proves shes not a popular choice when it comes to other Duelists such as Winter Soldier, Moon Knight, or even Scarlet Witch.Some players have offered some suggestions to tackle the Storm problem in competitive lobbies where one wrote, Letting her move that fast and freely during the ult was a mistake. Make it stationary and give it the ability to pull enemies to the center of the thunderstorm for massive damage.While players are tackling balancing issues with the latest nerfs and buffs in Marvel Rivals, fans on the other side are having a hard time trusting leaked heroes after rumors of fake characters being planted by devs have gone viral.Subscribe to our newsletters!By subscribing, you agree to our Privacy Policy and may receive occasional deal communications; you can unsubscribe anytime.Share
