Marvel Rivals' Invisible Woman Exposes Potential Bot Problem
The newly released Invisible Woman in Marvel Rivals is unintentionally highlighting a growing concern among players: the suspected presence of AI bots in matches. For weeks, players have debated the possibility of NetEase Games employing low-level AI opponents to maintain player engagement. This discussion intensified following Season 1's introduction of Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman.
Reddit user barky1616's video demonstrates an unexpected application of Invisible Woman's invisibility ability. The video shows Sue Storm, while invisible, inexplicably blocking the progress of several enemy team members. These opponents seemingly fail to recognize the obstruction, only attempting to circumvent her after she becomes visible. This unusual behavior fuels speculation about the prevalence of bots.

This observation suggests that the enemy team may consist of bots incapable of navigating around an invisible obstacle. While replicating this strategy may yield inconsistent results, the video's peculiarity has sparked significant community discussion, ranging from puzzled amusement to serious concerns about bot infiltration.
NetEase Games has yet to officially address these allegations. IGN has contacted NetEase for comment regarding the suspected bot issue in Marvel Rivals.

Despite the ongoing bot debate, Season 1's content update has been generally well-received. While the first half of the Fantastic Four—Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman—are now playable, the second half, featuring The Thing and the Human Torch, is anticipated. Alongside the new characters, players are experiencing balance changes and a crackdown on mods, with some finding Reed Richards' portrayal less than compelling. Further details on these aspects are available in related articles.
