A Marvel Rivals player has discovered a ridiculously overpowered Peni Parker trick on the Wakanda: Hall of Djalia map. Marvel Rivals characters have powerful abilities that can be overpowered in various scenarios, but this may be the most effective Peni Parker strategy.
Since releasing from its beta, Marvel Rivals has reached impressive player count numbers, partially thanks to its free-to-play nature. New characters continue to be added to the NetEase game through regular updates, making logging in frequently enticing to gamers who need to experience every hero. As some Marvel Rivals heroes are considered overpowered, others are often discarded to increase a team's likelihood of winning. One Peni Parker fan has discovered an overpowered trick that requires some setup on the Hall of Djalia map.
February 21 is Going to Be a Huge Day for Marvel Rivals Fans
February 21 is shaping up to be a fantastic day for Marvel Rivals fans, as some highly anticipated content will finally be added to the title.
YouTube Channel Neko and Tora recently shared a Marvel Rivals video highlighting their Peni Parker trick on Wakanda: Hall of Djalia. The clip begins with their team shooting at pillars around a circular area near the capture point to transform the map. Like other shooters, Marvel Rivals features destructibility limited to specific map locations, like these pillars. Once broken, Peni Parker places a Bionic Spider-Nest in the middle of the area, then proceeds to break more pillars. After the setup is complete, Peni Parker's nest can't be destroyed, creating a potentially endless supply of Spider-Drones and Cyber-Web. Once completed, the only way to destroy the nest is to eliminate Peni Parker, a formidable Vanguard with 650 health.
This Marvel Rivals Strategy May Be Perfect for Peni Parker Fans
The Bionic Spider-Nest ability periodically spawns Spider-Drones and creates Cyber-Web, which can heal and provide a movement boost to Peni Parker when in its area of effect. This strategy particularly affects Marvel Rivals' melee characters, like Iron Fist, Black Panther, and Wolverine. Some gamers have pointed out that there are better ways to break the pillars, particularly with Chrono Vision. Players have also noticed a similar exploit on the Tokyo 2099 map in which they can utilize the bell to hide Peni Parker's nest. Others have suggested that the strategy requires too much setup to be worth it, as veteran players may know to eliminate Peni to get rid of the nest.
As Neko and Tora have garnered over one million views on this video, NetEase may patch this exploit before too many players can benefit from it. Given that NetEase frequently updates Marvel Rivals, gamers may discover exploits like this on future maps.
