OneMarvel Rivalsfan shared their experience after witnessing an exploit that allows Doctor Strange and Jeff the Land Shark to team-up and remove players from the game’s map.Marvel Rivalsis currently nearing the end of Season 1: Eternal Night Falls, which means a large portion of the community is already discussing the possibility of new characters coming to the popular hero shooter. While it’s not officially confirmed, many people expect to see Blade added to the title’s ever-expanding roster at the beginning of Season 2.
People have often employed interesting strategies when usingDoctor Strange’s portals inMarvel Rivals. One person even placed the opening of the portal in front of the sun to effectively blind enemies trying to fight within view of it. These tricks are often more fun than frustrating, as they show a level of imagination and innovation when using the character’s ability kit.
In a recent post on Reddit, Diapy shared a video showing an exploit that involvesMarvel Rivals' Doctor Strangeand Jeff the Land Shark. When looking at the footage, it seems as if Doctor Strange puts one end of his portal into a corner and the other on the ground where enemies are fighting. Then, Jeff the Land Shark uses his ultimate to scoop up nearby foes and spits them into the portal, effectively removing them from the map. After that, Doctor Strange swaps to a new hero and makes the portal disappear. The players thrown into this black box haven’t been eliminated, meaning there’s no way for them to respawn. Instead, they’re left in this box for the duration of the match.
Marvel Rivals Exploit Banishes Players From the Map
The video Diapy shared shows the exploit from the perspectives ofMarvel Rivals' Squirrel Girl, Doctor Strange, and Jeff the Land Shark, giving viewers a full look at the exploit in action. Many fans seemed to agree that NetEase Games should try to patch out the glitch as soon as possible, as it can completely ruin a match. While gamers are waiting for a fix, some people suggested that players who see this exploit should immediately report those using it. Deliberately using an exploit is an offense that can get someone banned, which means NetEase Games may take action against those using it.
Since the game’s release, many players havetaken issue with Jeff’s ultimate inMarvel Rivals. While the ability to scoop up a bunch of players and spit them off the edge of the map isn’t against the rules, it has frustrated a large portion of the community. When the title was first released, some gamers found that there was an issue with the ability’s hitbox, as enemies were being swallowed outside the animation. The problem has since been corrected by NetEase Games. Despite the occasional glitch or exploit, many fans feel optimistic about the future ofMarvel Rivals.
