Marvel Rivals Fans Are Using the Invisible Woman to Detect Alleged Bot Matches

Author : Chloe May 27,2025

The introduction of the Invisible Woman as a new character in Marvel Rivals has sparked a unique conversation among players, particularly around the detection of what they believe are bot enemies within their lobbies. The issue of bots has been a hot topic for weeks, with many fans suspecting that developer NetEase Games might be using low-level AI opponents to maintain player engagement. The discussion intensified with the launch of Season 1, which introduced Mister Fantastic and the Invisible Woman to the game last Friday, bringing not only changes to the game's meta but also new insights into gameplay mechanics.

Reddit user barky1616 highlighted a peculiar use of Invisible Woman's abilities in a video shared on the platform. The footage demonstrates Sue Storm turning invisible and effectively blocking the path of half the opposing team by simply standing in front of them. The enemies do not attempt to navigate around her or engage in combat until she becomes visible again, leading to a resumption of normal gameplay. This unusual behavior has led many in the community to speculate that bots are increasingly prevalent in Marvel Rivals, as human players would typically react differently to such a situation.

The video has fueled discussions, with players attempting to replicate the "Invisible Woman trick" to test the bot theory themselves. While results may vary, the clip has left the community puzzled and concerned about the potential scale of the bot issue in Marvel Rivals. As of now, without an official statement from NetEase, it remains uncertain whether AI enemies are indeed infiltrating matches or if other factors are at play. IGN has reached out to NetEase for clarification on the alleged presence of bots in the game.

Amidst the ongoing debate about bot matches, players continue to immerse themselves in the new content introduced with Season 1. The first half of the Fantastic Four, Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman, have been added as playable characters, with The Thing and the Human Torch set to join them soon. As the community eagerly anticipates the arrival of these iconic Marvel characters in the hero shooter, you can explore every major balance change implemented last Friday. Additionally, insights into how players are reacting to NetEase's crackdown on mods and the challenges some face in taking Reed Richards seriously provide a deeper look into the evolving dynamics of Marvel Rivals.
