Marvel Rivals is re-balancing heroes in Season 3.5 through new buffs and nerfs. Here’s a list of the adjustments set to arrive with the update.
Get ready for the new Marvel Rivals Season 3.5 hero buffs and nerfs! As is the tradition with each new update, the developer is bringing some fresh balance changes to the game with the mid-season update.
