Marvel Rivals' Invisible Woman Exposes Potential Bot Problem
The newly released Invisible Woman in Marvel Rivals is unexpectedly revealing a potential problem: players suspect an increased presence of bot opponents in their matches. This suspicion has been simmering for weeks amongst the player base, with many believing developer NetEase Games is using low-level AI to maintain player engagement. The recent Season 1 update, which introduced Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman, has only intensified this debate.
Reddit user barky1616's video highlights an unusual tactic using Invisible Woman's invisibility. The video shows Sue Storm becoming invisible and inexplicably blocking the progress of half the opposing team simply by standing in their path. The enemy team, seemingly unresponsive, doesn't attempt to circumvent her until she exits invisibility. This peculiar behavior fuels the ongoing bot discussion.

The implication is that these opponents are bots, incapable of recognizing the obstruction. While replicating this strategy may yield varied results, the video's unusual nature has sparked significant community debate, ranging from puzzled confusion to serious concerns about bot infestation.
NetEase has yet to officially address these allegations. IGN has contacted NetEase for comment regarding the suspected bot presence in Marvel Rivals.
Despite the bot controversy, Season 1's content release continues to be well-received. While the first wave introduced half of the Fantastic Four, the second half – The Thing and Human Torch – is on its way. As we await their arrival, you can explore the recent balance changes implemented last Friday, the community's response to NetEase's anti-mod measures, and the humorous reactions to Reed Richards' portrayal in the game.
