Summary
- Players can complete Marvel Rivals missions and challenges faster by playing against bots in Practice VS AI mode.
- Completing challenges in bot matches appears to be a legitimate feature instead of an exploit.
A Marvel Rivals player has discovered that it is possible to complete the game's missions and challenges by playing against bots. Marvel Rivals is the new game from NetEase that puts players in teams made up of iconic Marvel heroes and villains. For Season 0, devs gave players different ways to earn rewards.
One of them is taking part in the Entangled Moments event, which rewards players with card galleries and stories when they complete missions. The Marvel Rivals battle pass has 29 rewards to unlock, including skins for Black Panther, The Punisher, Doctor Strange, Hela, and Mantis. The path to getting these Marvel Rivals rewards is tricky, specifically with the battle pass, as progression is only possible by completing daily and weekly challenges. But to lend a helping hand, a community member has shared a valuable trick.
Marvel Rivals: Easiest Heroes For Beginners
For those just starting out in Marvel Rivals, here are easiest heroes for beginners to make use of.
Reddit user Mr_Rafi found out that playing Practice VS AI mode allows players to complete missions, battle pass challenges, and event missions. They explain that this “isn't the practice range,” but rather matches in which players jump in to play against an AI-controlled team that they define as “pretty easy.” The player says they're completing their challenges faster than intended, getting the Marvel Rivals cosmetics without extra stress. The reason is that other gamers are playing bot matches for the same reason, making it more likely to find other people focused on completing challenges.
Clever Marvel Rivals Trick Helps Complete Challenges and Missions More Easily
Players in the comments section thanked the OP for sharing information they didn't know about. One of the comments expressed concern about whether this bot match trick is intentional, but the author of the post said that it probably is. To this end, they explain that by clicking on the exclamation mark in the “Missions” tab, Marvel Rivals will display a pop-up window with the modes in which it is possible to complete them, and VS AI is one of the modes listed. Another player noted that the Marvel Rivals beta had the same feature, reinforcing the argument that it was intentional rather than an exploit.
While players find their way to grind Marvel Rivals' challenges and missions to get rewards, this isn't the only way the community can get cosmetics. PS Plus subscribers and PS5 owners can claim exclusive Spider-Man and Peni Parker skins, while everybody can get an Iron Man skin called Armor Model 42 by entering a special code. To hype the launch, Marvel Rivals has Twitch Drops rewards unlockable by watching streamers of the 6v6 shooter.
