They're doing lesser known characters such as Jeff the Landshark and Luna Snow, they can't just add all the popular people. Plus squirrel girl would be more unique
Don't quote me on this, but I think they are going to do releases as tie-ins to other marvel properties. So Daredevil could be coming, but it wouldn't be until at least March of next year when Born Again premieres. Let's hope anyway.
Yeah I think that's a big part of it. They obviously want some of the popular characters to draw people in, but they also want some diversity in the gameplay and all that. But with the Marvel Universe being so damn huge, as long as the game is a success they could add characters for the next 30 years! lmao.
Right? He's been in pretty much every Marvel game for forever. I bet he arrives before the Summer. Oh hell, maybe Scott Summers arrives DURING the summer?? lmao.
@@ThatDAM_M pretty sure he's talking about an interview where they names characters and they said "stay tuned" for carnage, rather than the neutral answer for everyone else.
We really need more villains in this game, only Magneto, Loki, Venom and Hela. Only 1 of them is considered a ‘true’ villain and the rest are more tragic or anti-heroes in some stories. Hope Ultron will be there on launch date!
Right. It's been done with a few strong very characters though, and I can only assume that's kind of what the devs meant with the "Exciting and has a team up with hulk" line based on the characters that were datamined. But we will all see in less than 2 weeks! Exciting times.
Hawkeye, Wolverine and Ultron are probably my favourites of these. The Fantastic 4 could also be nice. I could see them coming in Season 1 maybe. We'll just have to wait and see.
So since I've put this video out, I've been reading that Ultron might actually be replaced with Blade. So we really are going to have to wait and see. I do fully expect them to announce Hawkeye today though.
We NEED Cyclops, he's literally Made For This Game! It's a Shooter and he shoots Energy from his eyes. Also Gambit, Bishop, Cable, Archangel and Nightcrawler would all be welcomed additions!
I’m probably going to be hesitant to buy cosmetics outside of the season passes but if they drop a bone claw variant of Wolverine that may be my exception.
The thing about all the fantastic 4 is their abilities work so well in a game like this Mr fantastic will be the most interesting because he is probably gonna be very tech based.
I think the most obvious 4 out of the 12 for launch are Wolverine, Hawkeye, Cloak and Dagger, and Human Torch. Wolverine because of the dev tease, Hawkeye because I’m pretty sure we just got him confirmed with a trailer and everything, Cloak and Dagger because we’ve seen their official render, and Human Torch because we’ve seen his in-game model. As for the other two, I think Mr. Fantastic has a good shot, the leaks for him provided names of abilities and things iirc. Lastly, probably Widow. We already have every other original mcu avenger, and there’s leaks to suggest she might be a sniper, which would fill a niche we don’t really have already and is enough of a departure from the way she’s depicted in modern media (but still fits with her more classic skillset) that I’m willing to believe it. Season 1 character is probably going to be Ultron to finally add a villain to the mix. But hey, it could also be somebody like Squirrel Girl to get people talking like Jeff did.
I believe wolverine will be a mix of Black Panther and Reaper or Mauga Healing himself while attacking enemies or a burst that will heal him while doing damage
I think/hope the way they’ll do Cloak and Dagger is have you play as both characters at the same time (Dagger can run around and Cloak floats behind her) which will give them a big hitbox yes, but to counter it, they could have their health pool be really big since it’s 2 people and/or have Cloak’s teleportation be really busted
That would be cool, but I think it's probably just going to end up being an instantaneous switch type of thing just because of the resource management/optimization side. And from being in the alpha/beta, they definitely need to focus on optimization. lol.
@@ThatDAM_M fair point. I never got to play the Alpha/Beta, but I am so insanely hyped for this game to come out. I’m a massive Marvel fan and the art style and lore are both so good
a bit of a fact check, the fast ball special isnt actually a wolverine and hulk move, iirc, it's colossus and wolverine move but in many media different strong characters have pulled it off so when things comes out, i wouldnt be surprised if he could preform it too. hopefully we get she hulk and she can also do it
All great picks! If they are (seemingly) adding Wolverine, Deadpool almost seems like a no-brainer. The question is if they are willing to pull the trigger.
Add Ghost Rider and just make him roadhog. Chain into penance stare one shotting squishies, hellfire shotgun, high health and can heal himself because he's immortal in the comics. It would be so fucking toxic but god would it be funny
I hope carnage is a different character from venom since if it was just a skin it couldn't do carnage justice since he can create weapons from his hands where venom can't
I think the first two have a good chance at making an appearance. Quake and Hyperion would be fun but I'm not sure how likely they would be. Maybe the devs could make polls about what characters people want to see as future releases? That would surely at least let them know people want those characters.
Widowmaker (design of her was leaked), Hawkeye (His design was shown), Cloak and dagger, human torch (Desgin was leaked), Ultron those are the ones that are the 5 coming 6th I don’t know
So technically they are all coming, it's just a matter of when. I could be wrong but I don't think they are adding all of the Fantastic Four at launch, and doubt they would release them one by one or separately. But who knows? We all will in like 2 weeks!
Yeah when I used to play Marvel Snap he was the character I based my favorite deck around for the longest time. I'm very curious how he would play in this game!
To me it seems like the ones that have leaked the most I.e: cloak and dagger, black widow, johnny storm, and ultron are the most likely to get my dec 6 Its so close i can hardly wait.
For me, I just don't think they would add the Fantastic Four separately. Granted I could be wrong, but I would wager that they are gonna save the entire group until sometime near the movie's release in July next year.
@@fredrickwilliams293 My man! Honestly, if they added Juggernaut I'd probably spend $100 on different skins for him. And I'd love to be able to say "I'm the Juggernaut Bitch" in voice chat before every match. lmao.
I think Quicksilver was hinted at with some of the background posters or something, so you might get your wish there. The surfer probably won't be too far behind the Fantastic Four as well. Sentry is probably a bit of a dark horse pick, but would be fun!
@ThatDAM_M I have no idea how he'd work or if he even would 🤣 but him or Nick Fury as a joke character would be hilarious, even though Marvel probably has enough characters to make already... I doubt he'd get added anytime soon if at all. Maybe we'll see them in the story atleast, lol.
Since I'm fairly certain that's where 90% of their money is gonna come from (skins), I'm sure they are going to try and cater to as many fans as possible. A Danny Rand skin shouldn't be out of the realm of possibility.
@ well considering they added the 1 million BC black Panther which obviously isn’t T’Challa that’s no different then getting different versions of Iron Fist Danny and Orsen Randall skins maybe some of the female iron fists too
It seems to occur with a few different rather large/strong characters and Wolverine, but I'm mostly basing it off of the fact that the dev said it would excite people and the team-up. Based on these datamined characters, I'm not sure who else fits both of those aside from Wolvie.
@@luke_wiertz Nice! I think the Donald Glover version would be cool simply for the voice lines. I'm a big fan of Community and Donald Glover in general though.
HAWKEYE WAS JUST OFFICIALLY REVEALED!!!
ua-cam.com/video/XMmZ8wuXNG0/v-deo.html
I hope Cloak and Dagger is a stance switcher who is both characters in one.
Pretty sure that is exactly what's going to happen. They would probably be the most interesting character at launch too with that switching ability.
I'm calling it now, the Fantastic Four are coming in January for Season 1 to combat the story events of Doom Rising
I'll hold you to this! :)
Squirrel girl before Daredevil is crazy
daredevil kit is hard as fuck, he is one of my favorite heroes, but he is just a weaker spiderman
They're doing lesser known characters such as Jeff the Landshark and Luna Snow, they can't just add all the popular people. Plus squirrel girl would be more unique
Don't quote me on this, but I think they are going to do releases as tie-ins to other marvel properties. So Daredevil could be coming, but it wouldn't be until at least March of next year when Born Again premieres. Let's hope anyway.
I was kind of iffy on him until the Netflix shows. Now I'm all-in. I'd love for Daredevil to be in the game.
Yeah I think that's a big part of it. They obviously want some of the popular characters to draw people in, but they also want some diversity in the gameplay and all that. But with the Marvel Universe being so damn huge, as long as the game is a success they could add characters for the next 30 years! lmao.
Cyclopes , Quick Silver, Nightcrawler, Sentry ghost rider,
Yes night crawler or gambit is all I want
Come back at year 3 then
I would love if we some day got Pietro since Wanda and Magneto are in the game
CYCLOPS FASHOE!!!
Solid picks!
Nice video dude, you didnt yap for 10 minutes but got to the point, subscribed!
Thank you so much! I appreciate that. I'll try to at least make any future videos that end up longer interesting. 😅 lol
Cyclops x12. He’s the most popular character who hasn’t been datamined and they need to start working on him.
Right? He's been in pretty much every Marvel game for forever. I bet he arrives before the Summer. Oh hell, maybe Scott Summers arrives DURING the summer?? lmao.
Sniper fan, huh?
They have to add Carnage and Knull
Excellent picks! They were a lot of fun in Marvel Snap. I'd be down for them being in Rivals
Carnage was teased by the devs
@@VictorGonzalez-my3jg I missed that! Where/when was that?
@@VictorGonzalez-my3jg where and when
@@ThatDAM_M pretty sure he's talking about an interview where they names characters and they said "stay tuned" for carnage, rather than the neutral answer for everyone else.
Cyclops as a high damage strategist is a must.
So knowing the devs, he will probably be added....as a Duelist. lol.
Nah, Duelist, and a Powerhouse, as he should be!
please dont let Squirrel Girl be the fat version

We really need more villains in this game, only Magneto, Loki, Venom and Hela. Only 1 of them is considered a ‘true’ villain and the rest are more tragic or anti-heroes in some stories. Hope Ultron will be there on launch date!
Agree! What Villains do you want to see?
@@ThatDAM_M For sure Green Goblin, Thanos, Doctor Doom, Ultron and Kang. How about you?
@@AgentSmith939 Excellent choices! I'd want to see Dormammu, Juggernaut, Apocalypse, Doc Ock, and MODOK.
The fastball special is notorious with colossus not the hulk.
Right. It's been done with a few strong very characters though, and I can only assume that's kind of what the devs meant with the "Exciting and has a team up with hulk" line based on the characters that were datamined. But we will all see in less than 2 weeks! Exciting times.
Yeah but Wolverine also first appeared in a Hulk comic.
Angel should be in the game a flying support would be cool
And they could add the venomized skin
That's a great point!
Need blade
Yeah I think he’d make a great addition.
I really need a Green Goblin as a junkmain!
What if they did HobGoblin instead? lol
Please let Wolverine be one of them...
Pretty confident he's the last one that they are going to announce as a launch hero.
Hawkeye, Wolverine and Ultron are probably my favourites of these.
The Fantastic 4 could also be nice. I could see them coming in Season 1 maybe.
We'll just have to wait and see.
So since I've put this video out, I've been reading that Ultron might actually be replaced with Blade. So we really are going to have to wait and see. I do fully expect them to announce Hawkeye today though.
Hawkeye is boring
Awwwww i was really hoping for another support summoner@@ThatDAM_M
The F4 is probably coming out later because they'd want to time it with the movie. They might get an extreme 4 hero release which would be fun.
@@warmfridge856Nah I like my archer boys Hawkeye and Green Arrow some of my favorite characters from marvel and dc
We NEED Cyclops, he's literally Made For This Game! It's a Shooter and he shoots Energy from his eyes. Also Gambit, Bishop, Cable, Archangel and Nightcrawler would all be welcomed additions!
I’m probably going to be hesitant to buy cosmetics outside of the season passes but if they drop a bone claw variant of Wolverine that may be my exception.
That would be sick!
But the fastball special works very differently than the team ups we have seen because one of the players activate it then stopping the other to do it
It’s going to be unique, if that’s what it ends up being. We might be getting too hyped up for something much less interesting. lol
The thing about all the fantastic 4 is their abilities work so well in a game like this Mr fantastic will be the most interesting because he is probably gonna be very tech based.
I'm sure there's probably gonna be a team-up based around the entire group to promote squads picking all of them, but you might be right about that.
I think the most obvious 4 out of the 12 for launch are Wolverine, Hawkeye, Cloak and Dagger, and Human Torch. Wolverine because of the dev tease, Hawkeye because I’m pretty sure we just got him confirmed with a trailer and everything, Cloak and Dagger because we’ve seen their official render, and Human Torch because we’ve seen his in-game model.

Season 1 character is probably going to be Ultron to finally add a villain to the mix. But hey, it could also be somebody like Squirrel Girl to get people talking like Jeff did.
For me, I just don't think they'd release the Fantastic Four individually. I could be wrong though.
I believe wolverine will be a mix of Black Panther and Reaper or Mauga
Healing himself while attacking enemies or a burst that will heal him while doing damage
Sounds about right. But they may cap how much healing he can get within so many seconds because otherwise I can see him being very overpowered.
I think/hope the way they’ll do Cloak and Dagger is have you play as both characters at the same time (Dagger can run around and Cloak floats behind her) which will give them a big hitbox yes, but to counter it, they could have their health pool be really big since it’s 2 people and/or have Cloak’s teleportation be really busted

They just revealed Hawkeye so I think you might be right.
I hope so! lol
Let’s agree on one simple thing almost every single person wants in rivals
Ghost rider
danny to be specific
yes but robbie reyes
Misspelled Wolverine
He was fun in Ultimate Alliance 3! That would be a great addition!
a bit of a fact check, the fast ball special isnt actually a wolverine and hulk move, iirc, it's colossus and wolverine move but in many media different strong characters have pulled it off so when things comes out, i wouldnt be surprised if he could preform it too. hopefully we get she hulk and she can also do it
Yep you are correct. She-Hulk would be fun too!
Ghost rider would be 🔥 wolverine and iron fist would be so much fun
Just based on the comments I'm seeing on my videos, I feel like Ghost Rider is one of the most requested heroes. Wolvie and Iron Fist are coming. :)
Dude im gonna main cloak and dagger bro im so hype
Can’t wait to try them out! Sounds like my kind of support too!
If we don't get playable Doctor Doom, I will burn down Netease.
Shang chi plzzzzzzzzzz
That would be a fun one!
id like to see cyclops, wolverine, gambit, Deadpool, or even silver surfer
All great picks! If they are (seemingly) adding Wolverine, Deadpool almost seems like a no-brainer. The question is if they are willing to pull the trigger.
I think Black Widow is gonna be launch - game's gotta have a sniper
I agree. Especially since Hawkeye has a team-up ability with an unannounced character, which would make sense if it were Black Widow.
I currently predict Deadpool and Ghost Rider
Both would be hella fun!
They’ve been sitting on Human Torch and Mr. Fantastic dude
Yup! And I think they are gonna hold onto them for even longer. Maybe to coincide with the release of the new movie.
I’m a simple man. If they add Cyclops I’m going to drop my wallet on this game, and if they don’t… well I’ll just wait until they add him.
I just replied to another comment with the idea that maybe Scott Summers arrives during the summer? It would be funny. lol.
Daredevil needs to enter the chat ASAP
Add Ghost Rider and just make him roadhog. Chain into penance stare one shotting squishies, hellfire shotgun, high health and can heal himself because he's immortal in the comics. It would be so fucking toxic but god would it be funny

I hope carnage is a different character from venom since if it was just a skin it couldn't do carnage justice since he can create weapons from his hands where venom can't
Yeah I hope they would make Carnage his own character. We'll see.
Cyclops should be in the game
I agree! He's been a staple of pretty much every Marvel game for such a long time. Hopefully the devs just need more time to cook with him.
I’m 99%. Sure cloak and dagger are next after Hawkeye
Maybe they are trying to get all of the Duelists out of the way? I definitely want them to reveal more Vanguards and Strategists.
Idk if you might see this or not but I was wondering will doctor doom be playable in the future?
I’d bet money he will be. There’s just no timetable on when that would be. If I had to guess I’d say maybe by next summer.
@@ThatDAM_Moh okk thanks so much bro love the vids btw 🙏🏾🔥

I NEED THE DEVIL OF HELL’S KITCHEN
We can only hope! I think he'd be a fun character to play as.
Wolverine was already leaked
Yep, technically all of the characters I covered have leaked. Its not a matter of if but when they are coming to the game.

They have really boned the X-Men on this game
I'm sure there will be more X-Men as time goes on.
Shuma Gorath

I want emma frost
That's a great choice! Imagine the skins? So many incarnations. lol
Ghost Rider PLEASE!
Silver surfer plz
I think there's a good chance the surfer will be added since the character is going to be in the new Fantastic Four movie.
Give me blade and wolverine and I’ll die happy
You are definitely gonna get your wish, its just whether or not it's gonna be at launch that you can die happy. lol.
YESSSSSS I GOT ULTRON AND VENOMMMMM IM SO FUCKIN HAPPPYYY
And I can confirm that Venom is very fun to play as. Hopefully Ultron will be too!
Yeah i said that wolverine and hulk fast ball special
It's gonna be fun!
Moon Knight and Psyloch are already revealed tho !
Top 3
Sentry
Quicksilver
Silver surfer
I think Quicksilver was hinted at with some of the background posters or something, so you might get your wish there. The surfer probably won't be too far behind the Fantastic Four as well. Sentry is probably a bit of a dark horse pick, but would be fun!

So stupid they’re doing Lin Lee instead of Danny. I’m going to be pissed if I don’t get a Danny Rand skin
Since I'm fairly certain that's where 90% of their money is gonna come from (skins), I'm sure they are going to try and cater to as many fans as possible. A Danny Rand skin shouldn't be out of the realm of possibility.
@ well considering they added the 1 million BC black Panther which obviously isn’t T’Challa that’s no different then getting different versions of Iron Fist Danny and Orsen Randall skins maybe some of the female iron fists too
The fast ball special is between wolverine & Colossus not hulk
Hulk has also done it before it happens a decent amount
@JohnnyFR55 I know that but t's mainly a Wolverine & Colossus team up moves
It seems to occur with a few different rather large/strong characters and Wolverine, but I'm mostly basing it off of the fact that the dev said it would excite people and the team-up. Based on these datamined characters, I'm not sure who else fits both of those aside from Wolvie.
ghost rider, archangel, ghost, and prowler

Might be some issues I’ve had crop up from time to time. But noted. I’ll work on it.
They chose the only iron fist that doesn’t use his fists 🫤 why wouldn’t they just use Danny and give him a Lin lie skin not the other way around
That’s a good question that we may not get an answer to.
