Marvel Rivals' Invisible Woman Exposes Potential Bot Problem
The newly released Invisible Woman in Marvel Rivals is unexpectedly revealing a potential issue plaguing the game: bots. For weeks, players have suspected developer NetEase Games of introducing low-level AI opponents to maintain player engagement. This suspicion has intensified since Season 1's release of Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman last Friday.
The addition of these Fantastic Four characters has introduced more than just meta shifts. A Reddit user, barky1616, posted a video showcasing an unusual tactic using Invisible Woman's invisibility. The video shows Sue Storm becoming invisible and inexplicably blocking half the enemy team simply by standing in their path. The AI opponents seemingly fail to recognize the obstruction, only attempting to circumvent her after she exits invisibility. This bizarre behavior fuels speculation about a growing bot problem.

This unusual interaction suggests the opposing team may consist of bots incapable of navigating a simple obstacle. While replicating this strategy may yield varied results, the video has sparked considerable debate within the community, ranging from puzzled confusion to serious concerns about bot infiltration.
NetEase has yet to confirm the presence of AI opponents in Marvel Rivals matches. IGN has contacted NetEase for comment regarding these allegations.

Despite these concerns, Season 1's content update continues to be well-received. The arrival of Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman (half the Fantastic Four) is complemented by the upcoming release of The Thing and Human Torch. While the community awaits the impact of these new additions, players can review the Season 1 balance changes, NetEase's response to modding, and the ongoing debate surrounding Reed Richards' portrayal.
