Marvel Rivals' Invisible Woman Exposes Potential Bot Problem
The newly released Invisible Woman in Marvel Rivals is unintentionally revealing a potential problem: bots. For weeks, players have suspected developer NetEase Games of using low-level AI opponents to maintain player engagement. This suspicion intensified with Season 1's introduction of Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman.
Reddit user barky1616's video highlights this issue. The video shows Invisible Woman turning invisible and inexplicably blocking enemy bots' paths simply by standing in front of them. The bots don't attempt to circumvent her until she becomes visible again. This unusual behavior is fueling speculation about an increasing bot presence.

While the Invisible Woman tactic might not work consistently against human players, the video's peculiarity is raising concerns within the Marvel Rivals community. Some fear a significant bot problem, while others remain skeptical.
NetEase Games has yet to officially comment on the alleged bot issue. IGN has contacted NetEase for clarification.
Despite the bot controversy, Season 1's content update, including the Fantastic Four's first half, is generally well-received. The arrival of The Thing and Human Torch is highly anticipated. Meanwhile, players continue to discuss the recent balance changes, NetEase's anti-mod measures, and the less-than-serious portrayal of Reed Richards.
