Marvel Rivals' Invisible Woman Exposes Potential Bot Problem
The newly released Invisible Woman in Marvel Rivals is unexpectedly revealing what many players suspect: an influx of bot opponents. For weeks, players have debated the presence of AI opponents in their matches, believing developer NetEase Games might be using them to maintain player engagement. The recent Season 1 update, introducing Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman, has only intensified this discussion.
Reddit user barky1616 showcased a peculiar tactic using Invisible Woman's invisibility. The video demonstrates Sue Storm turning invisible and inexplicably blocking the path of several enemy players simply by standing in front of them. These opponents don't attempt to circumvent her until she becomes visible again, a behavior many interpret as evidence of AI opponents struggling with basic pathfinding.

This unusual gameplay has sparked considerable debate within the Marvel Rivals community, with some viewing it as further proof of a growing bot problem.
While NetEase hasn't confirmed the use of AI opponents, the situation remains unclear. IGN has contacted NetEase for comment on these allegations.

Despite the bot concerns, Season 1's content drop has been generally well-received. The arrival of half the Fantastic Four (with The Thing and Human Torch slated for the second half) has significantly impacted the meta. Alongside the new characters, players are experiencing the effects of recent balance changes and NetEase's actions against modding. The community is also actively discussing the reception of Reed Richards, the game's newest character.
