Marvel Rivalsis known for its exciting roster of characters filled with popular Marvel characters, each bringing their own unique flair to the game. But occasionally, and rather rarely, there have been some niche characters like the recently revealed Jeff the Land Shark.

Squirrel Girl could be fun in Marvel Rivals

While fans eagerly anticipate new beloved additions, less-popular and weird superheroes might not make the cut. From quirky personalities to unconventional powers, these heroes could add a fresh twist to the roster. But, for various reasons, they might remain on the sidelines.

5Squirrel Girl

Squirrel Girl is a fan favoritedue to her quirky nature and surprising powers. Despite her quirky appearance and powers that involve communicating with squirrels, she’s proven to be a formidable superhero in various Marvel storylines and comics.

Her unusual abilities might not align well with the combat style of the game. Plus, her powers are quite niche, revolving around her squirrel companions and a combination of agility and strength, which could be tricky to balance within the game’s existing mechanics.

4Howard the Duck

Howard the Duck is another intriguing candidate whose inclusion would be exciting. Known for his sarcastic humor, Howard stands out from most other Marvel heroes. Although, his role is more comedic than heroic, and his powers are less conventional, often revolving around his ability to outwit opponents rather than traditional superpowers and fighting.

The game typically leans towards characters with straightforward abilities that fit into its strategic gameplay, just likeOverwatch,and making Howard’s skill set less of a natural fit, and making it hard for him to be a legit character in the game.

3Elsa Bloodstone

Elsa Bloodstone is a character with a compelling mix of supernatural elements and traditional heroism. She’s a skilled monster hunter andbrings a darker edge to the Marvel universe. Her expertise in battling various supernatural threats could make for a fascinating character in a different setting, but not in the game’s setting.

However, the game does focus on characters with more lighthearted attributes, and Elsa’s grim demeanor and personality, and pretty basic skills might not mesh well with the game’s overall style.

Echo, or Maya Lopez, is known for her incredible reflexes and ability to mimic any action she sees, making her a powerful and versatile hero. Her background as a deaf superhero who becomes a skilled fighter adds plenty of depth to her character.

While Echo’s skills are impressive, the game might find it challenging to include her mimicry abilities in a balanced way. The game’s mechanics may struggle to represent her powers effectively, and she wouldn’t be as powerful as the other characters, and be rather constrained.

1Werewolf by Night

Werewolf by Night, a character who transforms into a werewolf under the full moon, is another interesting character that has some challenging integration into the game. His beastly powers could be visually striking, but they might not fit seamlessly as he has limited powers and moveset.

The game would need to accommodate his shape-shifting abilities and the dual nature of his character, which could complicate the balance and gameplay dynamics. The darker and more monstrous aspect of this character might not align with the game’s typical tone and style.
