The anticipation is building as the Fantastic Four are set to reunite in one of this winter's hottest games. Next Friday, Marvel Rivals will see the addition of The Thing and The Human Torch with the launch of a major update, much to the excitement of fans everywhere.
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 or higher will unlock exclusive skins, enhancing their in-game appearance. Meanwhile, top-tier players who have reached Grandmaster rank or above will be awarded the prestigious Crest of Honor, a symbol of their skill and dedication.
However, there's a catch that has stirred some controversy among the community. The developers have announced a partial rank reset, where each player will drop four divisions. This decision has not been well-received, as many players are unhappy about losing progress mid-season. The grind to regain lost ranks can be daunting, and this move may deter casual players from continuing their ranked journey.
On a more positive note, the developers have shown willingness to listen to player feedback. They've indicated that they are open to making adjustments in the future. If the community's response is overwhelmingly negative, there's a possibility that the rank reset policy could be reconsidered, offering hope to those affected by the change.
