Alright, here goes nothing. So I’m scrolling through Reddit the other day—don’t ask why—and I stumble on this wild concept for a Goblin Queen character in Marvel Rivals. Some player, let’s call them Cultural_Ad4203 because, well, that’s their username, has dreamt up this character and plastered it all over the place. They want Goblin Queen to be a whole new deal, not just a skin for Phoenix. I mean, sounds ambitious, right? Almost too ambitious, if you ask me. But hey, dream big or go home.
Then, there’s the whole shindig about Season 3.5, and it’s all about Blade making his grand entrance. Finally, for crying out loud! They’ve been teasing him since Dracula messed with him back in Season 1. Now, he’s busting in as a Duelist, whatever that means. More slicing, I guess.
Oh, and NetEase Games—they’re the brains behind Marvel Rivals, in case you didn’t know—well, they’ve got plans and collaborations galore. Something about tying in with the Fantastic Four: First Steps. I gotta admit, I’m kind of hyped to see The Thing in action again. Rock fists for days!
Anyway, where was I? Right, cosmetics and skins. The game’s throwing a whole bunch of new threads our way. Swimsuits were a thing—don’t ask me who thought that was a good idea—and then more skins for folks like Mister Fantastic and the gang. And upcoming Phoenix-themed skins for Magik and Black Panther? I mean, who comes up with this stuff? But whatever, it’s all part of the fun, I guess.
Speaking of fun—or not—there’s some grumbling going on about Phoenix and Wolverine teaming up. Now, Phoenix apparently juiced up Wolverine’s Feral Leap. So he’s leaping like a burning inferno, dealing damage like nobody’s business, and healing himself up too. Some folks love it; others, not so much.
But with all this chaos, one thing is clear: NetEase has us chasing after more of this superhero drama. Love it or hate it, they’ve got us on the hook.
