Marvel Rivals character win rate data

Character Pick Rate Win Rate
Black Widow 1.21% 41.07%
Jeff the Land Shark 13.86% 44.38%
Squirrel Girl 2.93% 44.78%
Moon Knight 9.53% 46.35%
The Punisher 8.68% 46.48%
Cloak & Dagger 20.58% 46.68%
Scarlet Witch 6.25% 46.97%
Venom 14.65% 47.56%
Winter Soldier 6.49% 47.97%
Wolverine 1.95% 48.04%

Many characters on this list have low pick rates, impacting their win rate. However, Jeff the Land Shark, Cloak & Dagger, and Venom stand out. Jeff and Cloak & Dagger, both healers, lack the unique abilities of other Strategists. Jeff's Ultimate Attack nerf in Season 2 may further decrease his win rate. Venom, the sole tank on the list, excels at absorbing damage but often lacks the offensive power to secure victories. Fortunately, a Season 1 buff will boost his Ultimate Attack damage.

Top-Performing Characters in Marvel Rivals

For players seeking a winning edge, the following characters boast the highest win rates:

Character Pick Rate Win Rate
Mantis 19.77% 55.20%
Hela 12.86% 54.24%

Thor 12.52% 52.65%
Black Panther 3.48% 52.60%
Hulk 6.74% 51.79%

While fan favorites like Peni Parker and Mantis remain strong, Magik and Black Panther, despite lower pick rates, demonstrate significant potential. Their damage output makes them formidable opponents for those who've mastered their abilities.

This win rate data shouldn't dictate team composition exclusively, but it highlights characters who are particularly challenging to counter. While personal preference is important, familiarity with at least one high-win-rate character can significantly improve your chances of success.
