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

By ZacharyMar 16,2025

The Invisible Woman, the newest addition to Marvel Rivals, is unexpectedly revealing a potential problem: bots. For weeks, players have suspected NetEase Games of using low-level AI opponents, a theory fueled by the recent Season 1 update introducing Mister Fantastic and the Invisible Woman. This suspicion isn't just speculation; it's gained traction thanks to a peculiar discovery.

Reddit user barky1616 shared a video showcasing the Invisible Woman's invisibility ability. Incredibly, Sue Storm, while invisible, completely blocked the path of several enemy players, who seemingly failed to recognize the obstruction until she became visible. This bizarre interaction has many believing it's further evidence of AI opponents in their matches.

The theory is that these AI-controlled opponents lack the awareness to navigate around an invisible obstacle. While your mileage may vary attempting this strategy, the video has sparked significant debate, ranging from playful curiosity to serious concerns about the prevalence of bots in Marvel Rivals.

NetEase Games has yet to officially comment on these claims. IGN has reached out for clarification regarding the alleged bot presence in Marvel Rivals matches.
