Each character stays true to their roots, making Marvel Rivals an excellent choice for their fans.

The character in focus for the new concept is Deadpool, whose popularity has surged in recent times thanks to an excellent rendition of the Merc with a Mouth by Ryan Reynolds on the silver screen. While the character has appeared in other games to a generally positive reception, his appearance in Marvel Rivals would be excellent considering his popularity among fans of Marvel’s comics and films alike.

The Reddit post below showcases how Deadpool would be a great addition to the game, holding his own against the likes of other characters from the Marvel Cinematic Universe with style.

It is evident that the player in question has given this concept a lot of thought, allowing Deadpool to be a great addition to any potential teams in Marvel Rivals while being balanced enough to make playing him feel natural with his agility and incredible prowess with his signature weapons – and an ability that other players might grow to love if NetEase can do a little tweaking.

Other players were quick to comment on further improvements to the character that would stay true to his eccentricities while making him a lot of fun to play as.

NetEase is sure to find the idea of Deadpool quite appealing considering how it has ensured that each of its characters retains their unique quirks from their respective stories. Deadpool’s addition to Marvel Rivals may very well be on the cards if the studio can work with this incredible concept and bring it to life in the game.
