The introduction of the new character, Invisible Woman, in Marvel Rivals has sparked intrigue among players, particularly for her unexpected utility in detecting what many believe to be bot enemies within their lobbies. The issue of bots has been a hot topic among Marvel Rivals fans for weeks, with suspicions that developer NetEase Games might be deploying low-level AI opponents to keep engagement levels high. These discussions have intensified following the launch of Season 1, which brought Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman into the fray last Friday, alongside shifts in the game's meta.
As the community delved into the mechanics of these new Fantastic Four characters, Reddit user barky1616 highlighted an intriguing application of Invisible Woman's abilities. A video posted by the user showcases Sue Storm utilizing her invisibility to seemingly block the advance of half the enemy team simply by standing in their path. The enemy team does not attempt to bypass or engage her until her invisibility dissipates, at which point normal combat resumes. This unusual behavior has led many to further speculate about the presence of bots in Marvel Rivals, suggesting that the AI might not recognize the obstruction caused by Invisible Woman.
