Summary
- Marvel Rivals players have accused the game of filling quickplay matches with bots.
- Invisible Woman might be the solution though as her passive ability has been confusing the alleged bots.
- When invisible, bots appear unable to move past or hurt her, effectively taking them out of the match.
Marvel Rivals has recently faced accusations of populating its quickplay matches with bots, a practice that many players find frustrating. The issue came to light when a study suggested that bots tend to appear after players lose two consecutive quickplay matches, possibly in an attempt to help players secure a win in their third match and maintain their interest in the game. However, the addition of Invisible Woman to the roster has unexpectedly turned the tide in the battle against these bots.
Her passive ability, which makes her invisible, has proven to be a powerful counter, rendering the bots ineffective as they struggle to track her during gameplay. This shift has given players a new advantage in dealing with the bots, leading to further discontent among those who believe the game is artificially manipulating match outcomes.
Complaints about bots have intensified recently, with many players claiming that their placement seems more random than before. Some speculate that this change is a strategy to reduce long queues for players. However, if you encounter one of these suspected bots, there’s a simple way to neutralize them. The video below demonstrates how incredibly effective Invisible Woman can be in dealing with bots, even when she’s hardly doing anything at all.
Marvel Rivals Has A Bot Problem
And Invisible Woman Might Be The Solution
Shared by RivalsAssembled and relayed by barky1616, this scenario unfolds as Invisible Woman makes her way toward the enemy team’s base. She halts at the foot of a staircase commonly used by players to rejoin the action. However, this is also the path that bots follow, typically leaping over the banister when they reach it. But due to an invisible barrier preventing them from doing so, the bots unexpectedly stop just short of the banister, remaining motionless beside Invisible Woman. As a result, they fail to continue their intended path.
In this scenario, the bots—Adam Warlock and Hulk—are unable to detect Invisible Woman because her presence is unseen. As a result, they don’t engage with her, leaving them vulnerable and effectively out of the game. The bots remain motionless, unable to climb the staircase and rejoin the fight, which means they are sidelined without a single shot being fired. This tactic allows Invisible Woman to neutralize their threat without direct confrontation.
NetEase has not officially addressed the use of bots in matches or confirmed their role in assisting struggling players, so it’s unlikely they have plans to remove them anytime soon. However, if you suspect you’re up against bots, there’s a straightforward way to confirm it. One effective strategy is to switch to a character like Invisible Woman and oversee a few bots while the rest of your team handles the heavier lifting. This method can guarantee a win, though it may feel a bit repetitive and less engaging.
