Heroes
1.
Stealth Special Breaker
: We've sliced through a glitch where if Wolverine responds to a Fastball Special request while within Invisible Woman's ultimate, it would sometimes result in abnormal invisibility effects.
2.
An Unexpected Thing
: We've rocked out a fix for an issue that allowed The Thing's Embattled Leap to target teammates within an enemy Invisible Woman's ultimate. Now, he'll be as clueless as he should be.
3.
Cloak & Dagger's Shield Shenanigans
: We've zapped a bug where their ultimate would sneakily still do damage to foes protected by Magneto's Iron Bulwark or Hulk's Indestructible Guard—talk about an unexpected plot twist!
4.
Wolverine's Aerial Annihilator
: Fixed a flaw in the second stage of his ultimate where midair knockbacks lost their bite and dealt no damage. Now, when Wolverine soars into the fray, every strike is felt with the raw power of a true berserker!
5.
Star-Lord's Rocket Revamp
: Eliminated an occasional speed decay glitch in his Rocket Propulsion ability, impacting his smooth movement. Now, every blast-off is as snappy and daring as a mixtape drop from the Milano!
6.
Mister Fantastic's Fantastic Flex Fix
: We've untangled an issue in his Flexible Elongation ability where hitting targets inside portals caused unexpected displacement. Now, when Mister Fantastic bends the limits of physics, his moves are as smart and precise as his genius!
7.
Ascender's Altitude Assurance
: Fixed a network instability-related bug that could sometimes abruptly yank wall-climbing heroes back to the ground after reaching the highest point. Now, every climb is as steady and heroic as your soaring ambitions!

Marvel Rivals Season 3 characters leaked
Image via NetEase Games. Marvel Rivals Season 2.5 has raised the bar to new heights with its huge array of content. Be it a new playable character as Ultron or new in-game items like Combat Chest, this mid-season update made every fan happy. However, now it's time to move on to the next chapter in Marvel Rivals as Season 3 in the game is knocking on the door, which is expected to release next month. However, we might have already got the heroes which we can get in the upcoming season in Marvel Rivals. Marvel Rivals Season 3 leaked heroes Before the start of Season 2, NetEase Games confirmed that in the near future the game would follow the 'a new hero every month' model. We saw Emma Frost and Ultron surfacing into the game in Season 2 and Season 2.5 respectively, that means two heroes in two months. However, the 'near future' is here and Season 3 would follow the new formula where we will see a new hero each month taking entry into the game. The developers also confirmed at that time that upcoming seasons (starting from Season 3) will last for two months only, with second months being the mid-season refresh. We are still some days away from Season 3, but might have got the potential characters of the upcoming season. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Livguard Lithium-X: The Future of Power Backup Livguard Buy Now Undo Twitch Seems to Have Revealed Upcoming S3 Heroes and Twitch Drops? by u/VeniceArtime in MarvelRivalsLeaks In the r/MarvelRivalsLeaks subreddit, a user named VeniceArtime shared a screenshot of the upcoming Twitch Drops in Season 3.
