Marvel Rivals has an impressive roster of heroes to pick from, potentially making it difficult to choose what avenue to go down.
However, rather than it being a total guessing game, the developers have released a Hero Hot List which reveals what are the highest-picked heroes along with which have the best win rates.
Here, we’ll be taking a look at this very list, giving you three sets of data showcasing which are the best win rate heroes in the game so you can craft your perfect team.
Best win rate heroes in Marvel Rivals
Before we get into the data, because Marvel Rivals is a semi-crossplay game, there are some differences in terms of pick and win rates.
Because of this, we have different tables displaying the data, one for the Quickplay pool where crossplay can occur, and two separate for Competitive where it cannot.
Here are the top five win rate heroes in Marvel Rivals:
Marvel Rivals Quickplay pick and win rates
| Hero | Role | Pick Rate | Win Rate |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mantis | Strategist | 15.75% | 56.03% |
| Peni Parker | Vanguard | 15.65% | 55.38% |
| Adam Warlock | Strategist | 9.06% | 54.42% |
| Loki | Strategist | 9.24% | 53.41% |
| Thor | Vanguard | 13.36% | 53.26% |

PC
| Hero | Role | Pick Rate | Win Rate |

| Hela | Duelist | 12.86% | 54.24% |
| Loki | Strategist | 8.19% | 53.79% |
| Magik | Duelist | 4.02% | 53.63% |
| Adam Warlock | Strategist | 7.45% | 53.59% |
Console
| Hero | Role | Pick Rate | Win Rate |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mantis | Strategist | 18.81% | 55.40% |
| Magik | Duelist | 5.15% | 54.89% |
| Hela | Duelist | 7.70% | 53.47% |
| Peni Parker | Vanguard | 21.58% | 53.45% |
| Adam Warlock | Strategist | 8.10% | 53.34% |
Even though Mantis is a top-tier character to play as, it is surprising that she is number one for win rate in both Quickplay and Competitive.
This essentially means that if you don’t have a Mantis on your team, you’re likely going to have a tough time competing against one.
What’s more interesting though is that Peni Parker is the only Vanguard to make the cut in Competitive.
If you play Marvel Rivals a lot, you’d know that Doctor Strange is a pretty nailed on pick, potentially followed by Magneto, so it just goes to show that Peni really is that much stronger on the battlefield.
